Ormron Gates cutscene art lands with comic-panel borders and speech bubbles; school ranks rename to Apprentice/Professor/Grandmaster; 4.3.0 cut
15.06.2026
Ormron Gates cutscene art wired. The cutscene art for the Ormron Gates sequence is in and hooked up to the scene that plays it.
Cutscene panels: double-frame comic borders + webp. Cutscene panels now sit inside a double-frame comic-style border. The opening cutscene keeps a thin border, and all panel art ships as webp so the load is lighter.
Cutscene dialogue → speech bubbles. Character dialogue inside cutscenes used to render in a separate dialogue box at the bottom of the screen, the same as overworld dialogue. It now renders as speech bubbles attached to the speaker inside the panel, so the cutscene reads as comic pages instead of comic-plus-overworld-dialogue.
School ranks: Apprentice / Professor / Grandmaster. The school's single 'Master' rank splits into three: Apprentice, Professor, Grandmaster. The hierarchy is now visible in the title alone, instead of inferred from who outranks whom.
Walking battle: Leave button with warning. The walking-battle screen gets a Leave button so you can step out, with a warning before it commits — leaving forfeits the encounter.
Maya-less walking-battle fix. A party without Maya used to break the walking-battle screen. The overworld walker is now pinned to Maya so the screen behaves whether or not she's in the active party.
Animated electric border on the chain order reveal. The chain-order reveal — which shows the per-fight hero order the chain runs on — now plays an animated electric border, so the reveal lands as a charge-up beat instead of a static label.
Version cut 4.2.3 → 4.3.0. Dev → staging promotion bundles the cutscene art, the school rank rename, and the walking-battle pass.
