Day of Dragons News

Greetings Steam Community,

As we mentioned before, we will be focusing on models and animation previews and sneak peaks going forward as we work towards the 0.9 Game Update for Day of Dragons.



In the video below, we share a sneak peak of the "First Five" Beawesome Games-made models which will all be appearing in Game Update 0.9. The models seen in the video are their rough proxy versions which are being used to make the rigs and animation cycles, the actual LOD's of the models will be shown later along with their UV's and Textures. A two meter tall mannequin is used for scale reference. The old Fire Wyvern Marketplace Dragon is also shown for scale reference. All of the current marketplace dragons (Fire Wyvern, Fire Dragon, Plasma Dragon, Buff Dragon) will be removed from the game as of the upcoming 0.9 Game Update.

The world of DoD is as unique and diverse as our own. Dragons aren't the only creatures scurrying about. Here is a introduction to two more of the AI species planned in the future.

[h3]Dune Weaver[/h3]


Throughout the desert environments, Dune Weavers are a common species. Named for their ability to seemingly swim through the earth, Weavers spend most of their time underground feeding as they sift through the substrate. Occasionally, they will emerge to warm themselves and rest. Strong armor covers their delicate bodies and grants protection against small predators. However, some juveniles may find success if they have enough determination and skill.


[h3]Swamp Snapper[/h3]


A deadly predator to small or immature dragons, the Swamp Snapper prefers moist, cool habitats. They will float at the surface of the water with only their nostrils exposed. Once a Snapper detects movement, they will launch their deadly attack. Grabbing a drinking dragon with their powerful beak, the Snapper will then attempt to drag its prey back into the depths.

Though fearsome, Swamp Snappers are not the most intelligent creatures and may underestimated the size of their target, latching onto more than they can handle. This makes them easy targets for skilled adult dragons looking to lure out this aquatic creature.



These and more unique AI species will be joining the world of DOD in 2020-2021. Stay tuned for updates and join our discord for sneak peeks at more custom content.

Here is a look at some of the recent development updates posted on social media.

The next Q&A will take place in June and we will let you all know when as we get closer to that date.

The Ice Wyvern is very "cool" and has a special Hoarfrost ability where it can coat its scales in chilling frost setting the "chilled" status which slows nearby creatures movement speed.



It's ice breath attack has a chance to freeze its targets in an icy prison making them invulnerable to damage but also unable to move or act.



While hoarfrost protects the Ice Wyvern from the "Burning" status effect, the Fire Wyvern's Inferno also protects it from the "Chilled" status effect making these two Wyverns an even match. We're excited to reveal this new addition to our starting dragon lineup coming in a future update.
