Patch: 1.2.0

We're so excited to announce this HUGE update! 1.2.0 is now live and so much comes with it.
I know we took a bit of time to get this update out, but it's because we wanted to deliver some game-changing updates to streamline questing, update the inventory to work better with the gameplay and much, much more.
The most notable change though might be the Frostfall Festival Seasonal Update! We know everyone loved the Witch's Eve event so we thought why not outdo that event and bring a whole new area to the game, new NPC's, new quests and more new weapons and items.
But then we went one step further and introduced the very first boss to Swords 'n Magic and Stuff.
We can't wait for you to see what's in store for you.
Before we get to the patch notes though I want to apologize in advance for any lost items you may come across in this update. In order to keep things clean going forward with our new systems, many items were renamed, resulting in broken items. We did, however, take this into account and set up a system to hopefully transition your items into the new system, but we may have missed some and the system isn't perfect.
If an item was removed you'll be granted a bit of love from the dev team (worth some gold) so you can recoup your losses in gold. Sorry about your diamonds.
We also refunded your purchased bank slots with these hearts.
Thanks for understanding.
Without further ado, here's the patch notes you're all itching to get your hands on!
