Optimization patch 2

Hey everyone! The game was just updated with a second optimization patch, which also includes few small bugfixes. By now you should start noticing improvements in perfomance, but there is still a lot of work to do at this front.

Optimization patch 1

Hey everyone!

I've added a first from the series of patches which aim to improve optimization of the game, and hopefully get rid of the stuttering issues in the end.

I've also added this patch to fix the corrupted assemby issue popping out for some players

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
    3. Changed animations for abilities while dual daggers equipped
  2. Combat mastery:
    1. New ability - throw a weapon
    2. New level of lasso ability
    3. New passive - stamina bonus
    4. New levels of passive abilities
  3. Archery:
    1. New levels of explosive arrow, evasive move, multishot and passive abilities
  4. Banditry:
    1. New ability - shadow dance
  5. Defense:
    1. Increased cooldown of shield slam
  6. Arcane magic:
    1. New passives for mana regeneration
    2. You can now use blink in dungeons
  7. Elemental magic:
    1. New ability - energy spread
  8. Nature magic:
    1. New mastery ability: werewolf form
    2. New ability: grow defender flower
  9. Holy magic:
    1. New mastery ability: divine weapons
    2. New levels of passive abilities
  10. Dark magic:
    1. You can now summon elemental skeletons only with level 2 of raise abilities
    2. All skeletons models were changed
    3. Mage skeletons with different elements now have different models and abilities
    4. New mastery ability: Summon abomination




Other changes:
  1. Tooltips are improved and now show mana cost, stamina cost and cooldown
  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.

Update 0.22a

Hello everyone!
The game was just updated with version 0.22a:

Desert zone updates


[h2]Two new dungeons[/h2]


Two new dungeons were added: Ancient temple and Arena of Glory. These are the hardest ones so far and offer a lot of good secondary equipment. Ancient temple is more puzzle heavy, and Arena of Glory is straight up boss fight one.

[h2] New quests, events, mysteries and places to explore[/h2]



  • 6 new secondary quests
  • 3 new events
  • a Nomad camp in the mountains that will offer quest and some items for buying
  • 3 new mysteries
  • 4 new simple caves with enemies and resources to explore
  • new world boss and new jumping puzzle
  • traveling shamans that will heal and buff you
  • a bunch of new enemies and resources


[h2]Barbarian faction questline[/h2]

Now you can start and complete barbarian faction questline, that will make you a part of the tribe and will allow you to buy some nature magic gear from barbarian merchant

[h2]Reworking arena mode[/h2]

I decided to remade arena mode and make it a testing mode, that will give you instant level 50 and best equipment in the game so far. I've decided this because in it's current state arena mode is not engaging enough, and it would require a lot of work to make it viable, and I rather focus on the open world and dungeons modes.

[h2]Other changes and fixes[/h2]
  1. Bow accuracy increased and now receives increased effect from accuracy stat from the gear
  2. Added some better weapons to loot from enemies in the first zone
  3. Books are now correctly translated to russian
  4. Fixed despawning bug in Unbearable quest
  5. Fixed the bug with fall damage not being removed after double jump
  6. Horse track volume now correctly affected by volume slider
  7. Fixed few minor bugs and issues




This patch is the first, bigger part of the desert zone content update I planned. I still plan a couple more quests for the zone and some other additions, which I will work on next week or two

I've updated development roadmap, so you can check my current development plan for the next few months: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1114220/discussions/0/2280456883461713561/
