- Add AdventureUnlockedEvent emitted by MetaEngine when a new adventure
is unlocked, displayed as a CTA in the loot reveal flow
- Rebalance box_of_boxes: reduce box_not_great weight 10→7, boost
box_ok_tier 5→7 for more variety in early game
- Add box_ok_tier and box_meta_basics drops to box_not_great loot table
so basic boxes can escape the loop
- Double box_meta_basics weight in box_ok_tier (1→2) for faster
meta progression
- Update bugs.md: resolve all 4 FIXME items
Integrate stats, resources, and cosmetics into adventures via conditional
branches gated by game state checks. Each of the 9 adventures now has a
secret branch that rewards exploration and encourages replay with subtle
hints on locked choices. The endgame box now triggers a Destiny adventure
that acknowledges all completed adventures and secret branches, with four
ending tiers culminating in an ultimate ending when all 9 secrets are found.
Also adds the crafting engine, CLAUDE.md and specifications.md for faster
onboarding.
Bug fixes:
- Fix double "NEW FEATURE UNLOCKED" message and broken enum-to-key mapping for all UIFeatures
- Fix Spectre markup crash when opening inventory with colors unlocked (unescaped rarity brackets)
- Fix latent Spectre markup crash in ResourcePanel (unescaped bar brackets)
- Fix WeightedRandom.PickMultiple picking with replacement causing duplicate drops
- Fix double AddItem bug (BoxEngine + RenderEvents both adding to state)
- Add StatType and FontStyle fields to ItemDefinition (were in JSON but missing from C# record)
New features:
- Endgame box (Mythic) that appears when all 8 resources are discovered, contains Crown of Completion
- Completion percentage tracker as mid-game meta unlock (tier 3), shown in both renderers
- Adventure pool depletion: adventure sub-boxes with already-unlocked themes are removed from loot pool
- Global error handling with log file output (openthebox-error.log)
- Tiered meta progression: 5 sequential meta boxes replacing single box_meta
New tests (180 new, 228 total):
- 5 panel rendering test classes covering all enum values (Portrait, Resource, Stats, Inventory, Chat)
- RenderContext and RendererFactory logic tests
- SpectreRenderer output tests across 4 context configurations
- BasicRenderer output and input method tests
- Simulation state mutation and full-run completion tests
Renderers now use LocalizationManager for all UI text: box opening,
loot reveal, feature unlock, prompts, and error messages. Added
missing localization keys to both en.json and fr.json.
Every box now always drops a box_of_boxes (auto-open) alongside its
normal loot, ensuring the core loop never breaks. The player always
has at least one box to open next. Only auto-opening boxes (box_of_boxes
itself, box_adventure) are excluded to prevent infinite recursion.
- Fix LootTable.GuaranteedRolls type (int -> List<string>) to match JSON schema
- Fix BoxEngine guaranteed rolls to iterate item IDs directly
- Fix BoxEngine resource condition evaluation for "any" targetId
- Make ItemDefinition.DescriptionKey optional
- Fix font meta item nameKeys to use proper localization keys
- Add 43 xUnit content validation tests (deserialization, cross-refs, localization)
- Add self-contained single-file publish via publish.ps1
- Update README with distribute and test sections
