Early unlock ladder

Why leveling faster matters
Levels are not just vanity. They widen your material and part pool, which gives you more ways to match rotating demand and commission requirements. More display options also reduce the “full rack” bottleneck that appears in early streams.

How to push progression without wasting gold
Keep the sales loop moving: craft clean weapons, match current demand when possible, open the shop, haggle without burning every customer, and reinvest enough to try newly unlocked parts. Buying every decoration the instant it appears can slow the part/material experiments that actually help the next sale.

Build-version warning
Demo build note: the developer previously rebalanced progression during the playtest. Use this ladder as a current-demo checkpoint, not a guarantee for the full 2026 release.
