Prometheus Wept News

[p]Hi there,[/p][p]I hope you're having a nice weekend! Version 0.644 of Prometheus Wept is now available, and continues the focus on quality of life improvements. As a courtesy, I wanted to let you know Prometheus Wept and my other games will be on sale from tomorrow - just a small discount for PW, but with the others more substantially discounted.[/p][p]I'm going to keep working on quality of life for another few updates before breaking ground on act 2, so if there's a rough edge you'd like me to look at, or a system you feel isn't well explained, please let me know.[/p][p]Talk soon![/p][p]Daithi[/p][p][/p][h3]Crafting Screen Improvements:[/h3][p][/p][p]Not all components need to be added to see the stats of the item you are crafting. Now, a basic version of the item will be immediately generated, and modified as you add better components.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Feedback on crafting has also been improved - the number of the item you have in your inventory and the skill gain from the crafting will be displayed when you complete a crafting operation.[/p][p]Thanks to Taka-Haradin and DedZedNub for the suggestions.[/p][p][/p][h3]Camera Improvements & Notification Dismissal:[/h3][p][/p][p]The camera can now be set to continually rotate while the rotate button is held, in addition to rotating in 45 or 90 degree increments. Due to issues with notifications dissappearing too quickly, now, they will not disappear until manually dismissed, which can be done for all or individual notifications.[/p][p][/p][p]Sometimes you can be moved from an area to another, and this can cause confusion about your current location, so your current location will be coloured differently to clarify this.[/p][p]Thanks to Vlodril for covering Prometheus Wept, and providing many helpful suggestion on his Youtube Channel.[/p][p][/p][h3]Improved Information on Ally Skill Allocation:[/h3][p][/p][p]When an ally levels up, some of their skill points are automatically allocated in line with their tendencies, and some can be allocated by you. A display has been added to show which skills are emphasized by automatically allocation, so you can allocate your own skill points in a more complementary fashion.[/p][p][/p]

[p]Hi there-[/p][p]Prometheus Wept v0.642 has just gone live. This update adds a navigation helper system and addresses a bug. I intend to continue working on quality of life in the short term, so if you find an aspect of the game difficult to interact with or understand, please let me know! [/p][p]Below, you will find a video covering all QOL improvements since EA launch, starting with the navigation helper added in today's update.[/p][p]Thanks for reading/watching![/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][h3]Quality of Life: Navigation Helper[/h3][p]The navigation helper, enabled by default, displays icons at the edges of the screen to help you locate merchants, other interactable characters, and quest locations.[/p][h3]Bugs: [/h3]

[p]Hi there- [/p][p]I hope you're doing well. An updated version of Prometheus Wept is now available for download. The newest version adds a number of quality of life improvements and fixes and number of bugs.[/p][p]Thanks to everyone who provided feedback. Please keep the feedback coming and have a nice weekend! I'll get started on a new QOL focused update next week.[/p][p]All the best,[/p][p]Daithi[/p][h2]Quality of Life Improvements:[/h2][p][/p][h3]A more readable character screen:[/h3][p][/p][p]There are quite a few stats, derived stats and skills in Prometheus Wept. This can make it challenging to piece together the relationship between the various components of the character system. With the newest update, mousing over a stat or derived stat will highlight all related attributes, allowing you to quickly come to grips with the character system.[/p][p]Thanks, Liessahl and DedZedNub for the suggestion![/p][p][/p][h3]Improved Resolution Support:[/h3][p][/p][p]Prometheus Wept gathers all available resolutions your monitor can support at startup. High resolution monitors can have a LOT of potential resolutions, which can mean a lot of clicks to find the right one. Version 0.640 first tries to match the current resolution of your main desktop monitor. If there's an issue, or you'd prefer another resolution, you can use the aspect ratio selector in graphics options. After doing so, each click to change resolution will skip to the next instance of this aspect ratio.[/p][p]Thanks, Brigand231 and pierrick.lesommer for bring this issue to my attention![/p][p][/p][h3]Help Screens:[/h3][p][/p][p]I've added a number of help screens to the game, so you can get better information on what each of the user interfaces do. Whenever a help screen is available, the button indicated above will be visible. If you click on it, a screen which highlights key functionality will appear:[/p][p][/p][h2]Bug Fixes:[/h2]

• [p]Fixed a collider not being disabled, allowing the same encounter in Homestead Heights to play repeatedly. (Murkki017)[/p]
• [p]Fixed an inventory issue causing stacks of items to be duplicated in certain circumstances. (Darcen | Murkki017)[/p]
• [p]After the “Rabble Rouser” quest, it is possible to become trapped behind a temporary all, forcing the player to use the map to continue. (LDICesare)[/p]
• [p]Fixed an issue with the credits screen. (Murkki017)[/p]

[p]Hi there,[/p][p]Hope you're having a nice weekend! Here's a quick look at one of the improvements coming next week. It has been pointed out that give the number of stats, skills and derived stats, it can be difficult to understand how all the elements of the character systems work together. To address this, I've added code to highlight related elements when you mouse over a stat or skill.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]At a glance, we can tell that the Dexterity Stat affects 5 skills, and two derived stats. Thanks for all the feedback so far, it's been a great help in improving the game![/p][p][/p][p]All the best,[/p][p]Daithi[/p][p] [/p]
