Somber Echoes News

First Big Patch live now!

Update to base hover skill. Before, Hover and Hover boost had different ways of activating, but they are now unified. It now activates by holding the jump button while jumping/zapping, instead of having to release and press again (in the case of base hover).
- Also does not deactivate by doing a downwards move input.
Fixed an issue where you could get stuck inside Radiant surfaces while using supernova and lightstream.
Fixed an issue where a certain statue was not saved as found.
- If this happened to you, it should be fixed by going back to The Maiden statue to retrigger the cutscene.
Solved an issue where the map would sometimes automatically start moving when you open the map.
Improved cutscene stability.
Currently unsupported languages now default to English.
Solved an issue where the aim effect on certain abilities would increase in intensity, resulting in obstructing view.
Bug fixes on various enemies.
Improvements for SteamDeck
Tutorial Video support for SteamDeck.

New oil painted key art

We wanted something slightly different when we needed some new key art for Somber Echoes, and were excited when the artist Tuomas Gustafsson took an interest in painting it for us.

Now we are ready and excited to reveal the finished artwork.

And here you can see some photos of the work in progress:

We would like to thank Mr. Gustafsson for his excellent work and we also recommend everyone to visit his website at https://www.tuomasgustafsson.com.

Happy new year everyone!

Feature reveal: Bow and arrow

Previously we have shown a few of the weapons and skills you will make use of in Somber Echoes - the spear as a ranged weapon and lanterns that you can use to traverse the enviroment.

Today we want to reveal the bow and arrow - a weapon that extends Adrestias capabilities in battle - espescially during intense moments where you need some crowd control.

As you can see in this video - it both has a stasis to "freeze" the enemies and is also able to destroy several at once. It can be a very useful weapon.
