The Monster Breeder News

Hi,

I uploaded a new tutorial video to the store page. It is explaining the game mechanics related to monster breeding, providing more insight into the game. Both the combat tutorial video and this one will be available in-game in the encyclopedia.

Hi Folks,

I am happy to announce that The Monster Breeder will be released on Steam, on the 19th of January, 2022!

Wishlist the game if you haven't already!

The inheritance algorithm, which is responsible for the inheritance of the internal and external characteristics of monsters, has been reworked. The player can cross different species within a given class. This requires Crossbreed Potion, which can be prepared by the alchemist or purchased.
If no such potion is available, the player can still crossbreed related species and can also cause random mutations using the Brew of Alteration. In the EA release, only monsters of the same class can be bred.

This class is the most adaptable of all. Their temperature tolerance is excellent, so they are not at a disadvantage in the sub-zero Ice Dome arena, where insectoids are slower and reptiles are weaker due to the cold. An additional strength of this class is their excellent endurance and high energy, which allows them to prevail in prolonged battles.



The Spiny Rat defends itself with spiny skin, while the Hellhound defends itself with fire skin, which inflicts damage to monsters that attack them. Carnivoras can claw, which is a faster attack than biting and therefore harder to defend against. Wolves can attack surrounded enemies simultaneously, while panthers can use their sprint ability to get out of difficult situations with lightning speed. The Snow Bear can attack multiple hexes with its ice breath ability. The Hyena is a powerful defender, if a friendly character on an adjacent hex cannot perform a counterattack, the Hyena will instead.

Hey Folks,

Three new arenas have been completed, so now all four are available for the early access release.

[h3]Spiders' Hall[/h3]

The Spiders' Hall is located in the southern tropical swamps. Insectoid monsters are in their element here, with a 15% agility bonus. All combatants fighting here receive 50% poison weakness, so teams specializing in weapon poisons have an advantage over others. In addition to pitfalls, Poison Circles emit toxic clouds that cause extra poison weakness.





[h3]Ice Dome[/h3]
Located in high mountain conditions, this arena is the most northerly of all. Because the temperature is constantly below freezing, all fighting characters gain 50% frost weakness and 50% fire resistance. Insectoid and reptile class monsters do not like this climate. Insectoids lose 30% of their speed, while reptiles are 30% weaker in this arena. Carnivora class monsters do not suffer from the cold due to their excellent temperature tolerance. In addition to pitfalls, Ice Circles cause extra frost weakness.





[h3]Caldera[/h3]

This arena is built into the crater of a volcano, the constant heat causes all characters fighting here to gain 50% fire weakness and 50% ice resistance. The high temperature is beneficial for reptile class monsters, which receive a 15% strength bonus. Pitfalls make it more difficult to fight and Lava Circles can cause additional fire weakness.
