Implements a full in-game Codex panel that tracks lore discovery across seven categories: bosses (72), quests (95), zones (18), equipment (65), adventurer tiers (32), upgrades (57), and prestige upgrades (25). Lore entries unlock automatically as players progress — existing completions are retroactively and silently added on first load. New discoveries trigger a toast notification and badge counter on the Codex tab.

# Elysium — Content Ideas
|
||
|
||
A running list of planned features and content additions. Strike through items as they're completed!
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🌟 New Systems
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Offline earnings** — When returning to the game, earn a percentage of what you'd have earned offline (cap at ~8–12 hours). Upgradeable via the prestige shop to increase the % and the time cap. Essential for an idle game!
|
||
|
||
- [ ] **Second prestige layer (Transcendence)** — Unlocked after ~10 prestiges. Sacrifice all runestones for a new currency ("Echoes"?). Echoes are permanent account-wide currency that persist across prestiges. Has its own upgrade tree with truly game-changing bonuses. Gives endgame players a long-term goal.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Daily challenges** — Three rotating objectives each day (e.g. kill X boss, earn X gold this run, complete X quests). Reward bonus crystals. Encourages daily logins even when idling comfortably.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Boss first-kill bounties** — Defeating a boss for the very first time grants a one-time runestone bonus. Rewards exploration and makes conquering a new zone feel extra satisfying.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Auto-prestige toggle** — Unlockable via the prestige shop. Automatically prestiges the moment the threshold is reached. Late-game convenience that dedicated players will love.
|
||

|
||
## 📦 Content Additions
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Equipment set bonuses** — Group existing equipment into named sets (e.g. "Shadow Infiltrator"). Wearing 2/3/4 pieces of a set grants escalating bonuses. Adds strategic depth without requiring lots of new items.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **The Codex / Lore Book** — Defeating bosses and completing quests unlocks lore entries about the world. Pure flavour, but gives the world depth and a collection mechanic. Show a ✨ notification when new lore unlocks.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Milestone prestige bonuses** — Every 5th prestige, earn a free prestige upgrade or a large runestone windfall. Gives players mini-goals within the prestige loop.
|
||

||
|
||
## 📊 UI / Statistics
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Statistics panel** — All-time totals: gold earned across all runs, total prestiges, bosses defeated, quests completed, time played. Idle game players love seeing big numbers about their big numbers.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **Last cloud save date + Force cloud save button** — Display when the last cloud save occurred (always visible, e.g. in the ResourceBar). Include a manual "Force Save" button for peace of mind.
