Development News: A Shady Character Appears at the Island
Hi everyone,
Last week we continued working on throwable potions. The new one is called ”Bottled Avalanche”. As the charismatic name suggests, when thrown, this potion explodes on 3x3 area and freezes the enemies. We also made a Talent Stone version of it. It is called “Avalanche” and can be cast by using 35 stamina. Though the potion version is more powerful.
There are now three throwable potions: “Flask of Lavafall”, “Flask of Toxic Rain” and “Bottled Avalanche”. So we thought it might be convenient to a have a travelling merchant that sells these kind of potions. Therefore we introduce a new merchant type to the game called “Shady Character”. These merchants will come up at the wilderness and sometimes at taverns and sell explosive, invisibility or teleport potions as well as lockpicks for a suspiciously cheaper price. Our hero can haggle or pickpocket them as usual.
We also changed some of the skill perks. For example, ranged combat skill now gives permanent 5% stun for ranged attacks at “Qualified” rank and 10% stun at “Master” rank. So even when the hero’s weapon doesn’t have stun effect, he will be able to stun enemies with his expertise.
Finally some minor improvements for the UI have been made. We changed the look of the date and hour indicator to be better in tune with the new enemy and chest cards.
That’s all for now. Thanks for reading. May the tides bring you triumph!
