Healer's Quest - Kickstarter Update

Pablo Coma tells us how the spell upgrades are working in Healer's Quest:

Design Highlight : Spell upgrades

Hi everyone,

We're just about to start the last week before the end of the campaign, and I would like to tell you more about another design topic. Let's talk about the spell upgrade system in Healer's Quest. I believe this is one of the most interesting aspect of the game, so get ready for this! :)

If you played the demo through the end, you probably have an idea of what this is about, but you just had the opportunity to upgrade one or two spells. Spells' skill trees is one of the mechanics which will make the game interesting in the long run by asking you to make meaningful choices when outside of combat and customizing your strategy. 

How does it work?

When your character levels up, you gain one magic star or more depending on your level. You can then access the skill trees and spend these stars to upgrade any available spell.
