question are there any plans to give the gems more uses than the gallery
Viewing post in The Girls of your Dreams comments
One of the ideas I had in mind is to have an in-game encyclopedia with full details on monsters, items, effects etc., where entries would open naturally as you play, but if you are interested in something particular, you'd be able to open them immediately with some purely symbolic amount of gems.
The gallery, however, will be the main target for spending the dream shards. I know I haven't updated it in a while, but there will be much more content to unlock, and not only images.
I'm also open to suggestions!
I'm kinda against the meta progression, as my intent was that every run should be handled with only the items that you found within this run. I know this can be problematic right now, so I will dedicate more time to balancing in the future (making current items more powerful (the ring giving only +1 is kinda low), adding more items that either just make you stronger in general, or allow you to deal with certain species of monsters easier)
