The Last Spell News

Hello Warriors!

We hope you're okay for the holidays season! At Ishtar Games, the celebrations have definitely started already with our traditional Christmas tree!

(Pictured: people of Ishtar Games who love the holidays season)

However, not everything we made for the holidays is so cute.


This thing is called "Georgio", and yes, it's terrifying when it's the first "person" you see in the morning in the office.

But since the holidays spirit is something we want to share with you all, we thought we might give you a liiiiittle something for this season!

[h2]CHRISTMAS CLAWERS ARE BAAAAAAACK[/h2]

We wanted to celebrate the holidays season with you, and what better way than having some VERY special clawers to bring gifts to you? (the gift being death and destruction)

And for this year, we have even more seasonal clawers than before. Are you prepared to spot them all?





(Yes, we believe he's cute, please don't hurt his feelings)

We've heard that if you were good heroes this year, we miiight have a "throwback" present for you all right after the holidays. This should make some of the early fans of The Last Spell very happy ;)

So, have fun with our very special clawers (we know you're going to obliterate them with violence though), and enjoy the holidays!

Changelog:

• Seasonal Clawers can be part of the hordes of enemies! (Cosmetic only, no special effect)
  
• Fixed an issue where loading a save would change the visual aspect of enemies.
  

[h2]Share your best Christmas Clawers on our Discord server![/h2]

We invite you to come to our Discord server and share your best screenshots of those Christmas Clawers!

We'll repost our favourite ones next month!

And yes, we're very much working hard on DLC2, and we will have more info about it in January!

This should be our very last blogpost for this year! We want to thank you for your incredible support in 2024, and we hope you'll love what we're cooking for next year!

Hello survivors!

We hope you're okay! We know we've kept you in the dark for a while this year, and we're very sorry about that. Our goal is to be transparent about the future of the development of the future DLCs of the game and beyond.

As it's soon Christmas, we wanted to do a little something before the celebrations officially start. Please note that this is NOT the "little surprise" we teased you with earlier this week.

Since we know you're waiting for DLC 2 of The Last Spell, we wanted to give you a little something.

We're working hard on it, and it's still coming next spring, along with the "Apocalypse 2.0".

So there you go, now you know that Elves will be the new race coming to The Last Spell next spring! Any theories about them?

Hello Heroes!

A small hotfix today, fixing the black screen issue that some of you encountered after the "save slot" update.

• Fixed an issue where a black screen would appear after selecting "Main Menu" during a run to save your progress.
  
• Added a security to the loading process when loading the current slot selected
  

Also, if your current save seems corrupted, please follow this process :

1.Navigate to the following directory:
%Appdata%/../LocalLow/Ishtar Games/The Last Spell/Save/Steam/your_steam_id/

2.If the save you are trying to fix was on Save Slot 1, follow these steps:
• Locate the save file in the Profile1\Broken folder.
• Rename the save files to:
o AppSave.bin
o GameSave.bin
• Move the renamed files into the main Profile1 folder.

3.Relaunch the game and verify the fix.
Don't forget to update your game!
