Blacksmith Legends News

Bug fixes:

- Lucy and few quests contained typos
- Apprentice Training could be learned prior to it's purpose, then caused Tutorial overlap
- fixed Lucy overlap texts
- opening Options in-game caused time to flow
- fixed bug where player could open another menu while in Load menu, caused a permanent overlap
- fixed an animation bug where if Hammer got hit by Anvil right when the night came and character disappeared, multiple particles and sounds ocured in split second
- saving game caused player to not be able to open Production window or go to World Map
- leaving Terrick un-recruited sometimes caused him stuck in standing animation [I guess he was mad at the player :-)]

Improvements:

- Anvil now gets tooltip 'Craft' when hovered over, Blacksmith character too (wanted to put it over Workshop as well, but found it really annoying over short time)
- SKIP button now properly skips after all employees go to sleep
- exiting menu in-game is now automatically un-paused
- saving game now closes automatically menu and un-pauses the game
- added 2 new quests during the beginning to slow down the game pace as it's still rushing the player (also gives him bit more gold)
- added new feature, when ordering materials from mines, top left panel is now displayed tracing it's progress till the end. After wheel cart finishes delivery, player can re-order last quantity by just one-click for a defined amount of time
- Back to Feet quest where player has to earn up to 3 gold early game got re-worked and is now set to Craft and Sell 5 items instead, which gives player better understanding of the sales

Because it's alpha and gameplay can get modified, NEW GAME might be necessary if you come up to some issues with older version saves.

Hello everyone,

just a short but necessary patch:

- fixed retrospective compatibility with saves from previous versions, where 'older' players could be locked up from entering World map.
- sometimes after quests, the speed when moving from Pause was set to different values than player used
- entering Options in-game now keeps the game paused
- Saving game now doesn't require you to click additionally and un-pause manually
- during Load Menu player could also open the Game Menu again that caused overlap and stayed on after load

Manually unpausing when exiting Game Menu is still on for now. There are players that like it or don't. Let me know your feedback, as it's entirely up to every player.

Hello dear fans and players,

received some feedback from all of you and most preferable a gameplay videos again so was able to wipe out another wave of bugs and situations where you could become frustrated:

- fixed situation, where opening Tutorial menu in World map or Tavern and then closing it would cause a black screen
- access to Marketplace, Smelter upgrade and World map is now restricted in order to create smooth gameplay, player just has to follow the quick tutorial step by step. There was unnecessary freedom since early game, which caused a lot of unexpected things to happen (e.g. Smelter should be used after demo, but is there to just give you some idea, but player could build him since the beginning, for no reason)
- RUS translation should be finished for all texts except Options (that will always stay in English)
- Shortened the time in Mining tutorial, where you click on 10 Iron per hour but wait sometimes too long and player starts to click vigorously around :)
- added 'sleep' indicator to Blacksmith, to indicate, he is out of work and will come in the morning
- Reward Chest should be properly reset every MON at the beginning of every week
- Working Hours button can now be clicked once to work (before was twice)
- added new tutorial tip after you recruit Terrick on how where to find him on World Map, since a lot of players thought he just disappeared

If you happen to find something odd anytime, feel free to click that Discord button in-game, that's for reporting bugs.
If you don't have Discord, feel free to send me e-mail as mentioned in this Store page :)

Right now, we're in the process of polishing the Prologue. Until the new bugs and block situations are found, I'm also working on new content so you can check me on twitch or discord.

Kind Regards,

VM Machal

Hello dear players,

After new feedback and own playthrough I've gathered bugs I could find and create new update.

- fixed overlay of tutorials in the game
- red arrow in tutorial is removed as it sometimes got stuck in player screens
- Hiring Terrick quest has now Tavern icon to indicate new players where they should click
- Having over 1k materials should be properly displayed
- finished RUS translation of new tutorials
- removed 'difficulty arrows' during character creation, since demo has only Easy difficulty
- hiring Smelter sometimes bugged out the Tavern Keeper permanently for whole gaming session

Thanks everyone and have a great day!
