This build showcases several new features, including two tarot-based interfaces for spell-casting, spells powered by ArcaneFX, new environments such as a platforming version of the paths of the kabbalistic tree of life with color and tarot correspondences, sounds for picking up objects, and a story journal with concept art by Ron Smith. Credit goes to Frank Bignone for graciously sharing (as a resource on garagegames.com) the 3d gui wheel and folder that I’m adapting to construct the player-character’s magical tarot deck.
