God's Disdain Version 1.1.0 is being uploaded to Itch, Newgrounds, and Steam right now! The game has progressed to the point that I feel it is finally deserving of that second decimal place going up.

Included in this are some bug fixes, but most notably also some new features:

Warriors can now use a Taunt skill to draw enemy aggression towards them. Warriors have high HP and can now use it to provide help to the rest of the party.

Rogues can now use a Steal skill to nab items off enemies without having to defeat them. Defeating enemies doesn't always result in drops, so this is a great way to get extra items.

If you have a Rogue in your party, you can now escape from most battles. Before, you could only escape from random battles on the overworld. Now, you can run around a dungeon stealing items from enemies and then safely retreating.

The desktop version of God's Disdain now also has the ability to export and import saves, so you can freely move saves between the desktop and web versions. You could always access the save files on the desktop version, but this will export a save in the web-friendly format for Newgrounds and Itch.io. Just remember that browser saves are somewhat volatile, so make sure to export your save slot before leaving the page.

I would love to hear feedback on how all of these features work. Let me know your thoughts!

The full patch notes can be found in the replies to this post.
