Love of Magic News

This is a quick Achievements focused hotfix:
- Fixed the Streamer tab on MC's PC being disabled, which meant you couldn't unlock "Voices in my Head" achievement.
- Fixed Toxic Environment not triggering
- Added a button to the Achievements UI to verify that all achievements unlocked locally are also unlocked on Steam.

Thanks to everyone who helped report issues, let me know if there's anything else!

With version 1.6.10f, I think I'm mostly done with Book 1 of Love of Magic; far enough that I can start on Book 2's New Game+ mode, at least. I spent the weekend setting it up, and porting the codebase to the NG+ codebase (with all the new gems, rollback and other nice quality of life updates). Hopefully it should start updating it over the next couple of weeks.

This update has a number of little bug-fixes, typos solved, and lots of updates to make it play better on Steamdeck.

Apart from that I've been hard at work on Morningstar: Book of the Fallen; give it a wishlist if you can, it really helps on launch.

It's a different world with some of the same souls; and a chance for me to repay my sins to Katie.



It's got multiple endings, different romances and a grittier world inspired by The Crow, Rocky, Highlander and John Wick. And match 3 combat; Katie would approve.


I hope to be done with that sometime in the fall; currently I'm optimistically saying end of September; currently finishing up Act 5 (of 6).



For those of you curious how to activate New Game+; start Book 1 after finishing Book 3, and you'll get an option to start a new game with all your gems, higher starting stats, and a story that's slightly different. Lots of dialog got rewritten, new events added, and (if you defeated Hel in Book 3) a new Questline has opened.

Hope you enjoy it, and thanks for all the support over the years!

This is a small hotfix to update a couple of spankbank/memory issues people were having, and clean up the puppeteering for Katie's MMA fight.

Apart from that, my next game, Morningstar: Book of the Fallen, is going live at the end of the month! Give it a wishlist here if you haven't yet, it helps so much on launch.
