What's New - 2/1/2017

*After a great deal of irritation, frustration, and screw-this-shit'ation, I finally fixed the issues I was having with using the upgrade system. The biggest one was I could buy a weapon, upgrade it, then immediately get the "Sorry, weapons can only be upgraded once" message.

The problem was that I was having the newly upgraded weapon be auto-equipped. Since there's only one upgrade per weapon, the game was treating it pretty much like I was trying to upgrade a weapon I had just upgraded.

 Now, when an upgrade is purchased, the game simply removes the equipped weapon and exchanges it for the upgraded version, which the player must now equip themselves.

*It is now possible to gain EXP, stat increases, and even level up through "schools" that will be opened in select locations (starting with Holvington). Obviously, a way to "buy" increases to EXP and stats has the potential to be heavily abused, so there will be a limit on the number of times you can.attend. 

Once the limit is reached, the school closes and moves on to the next city. Visiting all of the schools in the game gives the player the "Wandering Scholar" achievement. It's worth noting that at some point in the game the school in Holvington will re-open for a limited time to give the player another opportunity to gain EXP, parameter changes, or entire levels (thus reducing the amount of time spent grinding).
