Update 0.24a

The game was just updated with version 0.24a:

Combat improvements:

  • Basic attack speed rebalanced
  • Now the majority of the enemies will have at least a second of animation before attacking, so you can react to it
  • Now if you attack and can't reach the focused, the character will do a dash towards the target
  • Fixed the bugs when sometimes melee attacks went through the nemy not dealing any damage
  • Added input queueing and improved responsiveness of the combat
  • Added active parry. Now if you have melee weapon equipped and no secondary ability assigned, clicking right mouse button will perform a quick parry that can block incoming damage and knock the enemy down


Items changes:

  1. Added stats to the first tier of crafted armor
  2. All heavy armor now slightly decreases movement speed. This was done due to the balancing reasons (heavy armor being better that leather for melee in almost any instance) and for roleplaying reasons (it makes more sense that heavy armor would slow the character down due to its weght)


Abilities changes:

  1. Ferocity:
    1. New levels of passive abilities, enrage ability
    2. Warscream now doesnt have rage animation, because it sometimes interfered with attack animations

  10. Dark magic:

    2. All skeletons models were changed
    3. Mage skeletons with different elements now have different models and abilities

  2. You can now buy 10 items with one click, by pressing left shift
  3. Fixed the bug with the horse disappearing after oblivion potion
  4. Fixed few small bugs



Next thing I want to work on is the stuttering issue. This will require quite a lot of optimizational work with core engine, so it will take longer time.
