🌿 What’s new:

🔸 Guardian’s energy system has been replaced by a health system. Guardians will no longer be healed forever. The game will end when the guardian’s health reaches 0.
🔸 A new system called ‘elemental energy’ has been added. It will provide various buffs in battle, including healing (water).
