Ember Knights News

Hello, Knights!

We hope everyone is enjoying the changes to the Architect fight and the addition of the True Architect! As usual, we've been listening to all the feedback and have put together a small patch to make a few balancing changes and to fix a few bugs. Please see below for all the details that are included with Update 2.2.1!


[h2]Balancing & Minor Adjustments[/h2]
[h3]Ronin Reflex[/h3]

• Updated to remove the window where the player was vulnerable if they did not successfully counter an attack
• Updated to always allow the player to cancel the counter stance with a roll
• Updated to allow the player to move, at a reduced speed, while in the counter stance
• Increased the counter timer from 1.0s to 1.4s
• Increased the counter radius from 70 to 75
• Increased the projectile destruction time from 0.8s to 1.2s

[h3]True Architect[/h3]

• Updated to no longer support stealing skills
• Updated the attack patterns in all four phases
  • DEV NOTE: The goal of this change is to make the inverted controls and item stealing easier to deal with by making the Architect always use the Teleport Barrage attack right after the phase transition. This should act as a consistent grace period before the Architect resumes his normal attack patterns.
• Reduced the attack speed in phase 4
• Updated the teleport barrage attack to allow the True Architect to be damaged while firing the horizontal blasts
• Reduced the damage dealt by the teleport barrage attack
• Updated the elemental barrage attack to prevent the same element from being chosen multiple times in a row
• Updated the stolen item orbs to support getting hit immediately after being fired
• Updated the stolen item orbs to be targeted by Aim Assist
• Updated the stolen item orbs to prioritize orbs with items when deciding which orbs invert your controls
• Reduced the True Architect’s max health and damage in Boss Rush
• Reduced the Fallen Knight’s damage in Boss Rush

• Fixed a bug where the Void Mantle’s Dark Star was not properly activating stun relics
• Fixed a bug where the proper skills would sometimes not be given at the start of a Daily Dungeon 🔥
• Fixed a bug where Totality would be stuck enabled if the modifier was enabled in a previous game version 🔥
• Fixed a bug where the player would have significantly reduced invulnerability while rolling if the player was charging an attack before rolling 🔥

• [WotA] Fixed an issue with the True Architect’s constellation attack where the hitbox of the beam was wider than the visual 🔥

• [WotA] Fixed a few issues where some cursed relics would reapply their cursed effect after being stolen by the True Architect 🔥

• [WotA] Fixed a few issues where some skills were unable to damage the item orbs in the True Architect fight

Knights!

We're truly humbled to be in a position to celebrate the incredible milestone of reaching 5000 reviews! What an amazing journey it's been thus far!

[h3]Share a few positive words...[/h3]
Small studios like us truly live and die by our reviews and we recognize that none of us could be doing what we're doing without you, our players.
If you haven't yet left a review, we would be very grateful if you were to share a few positive words about your experience with Ember Knights.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!



Many of you have been with us from the very beginning, but for those who joined us along the way, we thought now would be a neat time to take a look back at our journey and show how much "Ember Knights" has evolved over the months and years.



[h2]Spring 2019 - Pre-production[/h2]

• Initial concepts and prototyping begins
• The first idea, that was somewhat close to where we ended up, was a more RPG-based game complete with NPC behaviors, day and night cycles, etc.

• Taking a step back and with a critical eye, we analyzed what we had and decided that the only thing about the game that was good was the combat. We decided to focus on making that the foundation of the game, improving and polishing it as much as we could, and scrapping everything else

• Footage is barely recognizable now as we've come along way with improvements and polish

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Hello, Knights!

A few of you have shared your thoughts about the Architect fight being a little too easy, so we've been working on some changes that we feel punch the fight up a little bit. We didn't take the fight to soul-crushing levels, but feel like the changes we did make bring a nice level of difficulty to the battle.

Before we fully roll out changes to the Architect fight, we'd like to get your feedback. If you're interested in testing these proposed changes, you'll need to opt in to a special experimental beta.


[h3]Instructions for Joining the Experimental Branch[/h3]

1. From your Steam library, right click on Ember Knights and select Properties...
2. On the left of the popup, click Betas
3. In the Private Betas section, enter TheArchitectIsGoingDown and click Check Code
4. A new blue button should appear below that says Opt into: experimental - Branch for external testing. Click this button
   
5. Close the popup and launch Ember Knights
