The Doors of Trithius News

v0.5.0d (Hotfix)

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
  • Fixed Chivalry abilities "Shield Bash" and "Shield Deflection" missing from the chivalry tree. They were inadvertently removed due to an upcoming rebalance, which will shift these abilities to a new skill. This was not intended for this version.
  • Fixed a bug where the "Corruption" status effect, intended to apply only on Grimjaw's Fortress's bottom floor, would persist indefinitely.
    • As an extra measure, we've added a new console command "clear effectsall" which enforces the removal of all status effects, including the hidden ones. It can be handy in situations where a status effect gets stuck.
  • Fixed "War Plans Quest" wrongly directing players to previously cleared locations.
  • Fixed an issue with the "War Plans Quest" where the War Plans failed to place in dungeons. Please note, this fix only applies to newly generated dungeons. Already visited dungeons, unfortunately, cannot be adjusted.
  • Fixed skin cream (blight cure) not appearing in medicine shops. Additionally, we've included a chance for it to appear in variety stores and general stores. Note: already generated shops won't have this item until their next restock
  • Fixed bloody Knuckles (Unarmed ability) attack speed not highlighted correctly in the upgrade tooltip.

[h2]Other Changes[/h2]
  • Reduced medicine prices: Splint from 20 to 15, Bandage from 15 to 12, Soothing Balm from 35 to 27, Antidote from 25 to 18, Long-lasting Antidote from 55 to 35, Thawing Ointment from 38 to 25, Skin Cream from 45 to 35, Shadewood Mixture from 75 to 65, First Aid Kit from 155 to 125, and Healing lotion from 60 to 40.
  • Updated the description of Feverfew to better match the attributes of the real-life flower.

v0.5.0c (Hotfix)

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
  • Fixed game crash caused by failed interactions with certain status effects.
  • Fixed bug causing Vile Gremlin to occupy same tiles as other creatures.
  • Fixed an issue where items could become invisible and unresponsive after reaching 100% travel weariness due to improper handling of the alternate swap; items will now unequip correctly in all circumstances.

v0.5.0b (Hotfix)

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
  • Resolved a bug that caused severe lag for certain players. This change involved an update to screen rendering strategy. Our testing shows this improvement should benefit most players, not just those who were previously facing lag.
  • Fixed Gremlin Trapmaster placing excessive traps and sometimes placing traps on top of each other.
  • Fixed option "World Scaling" causing in-world objects to become misaligned. World Scaling should now work as expected and can be set at any time (though it does still require a restart).
  • Fixed able to remove Duudahl's mark using a first aid kit.
  • Fixed escape key doesnt close options or other windows when used from the main menu.


[h2]Other Changes[/h2]
  • Added a new soundtrack (somewhere in the new Gremlin Terror quest).
  • Reduced ability "Vengeful Defiance" focus point cost from 1 to 2.
  • Increased Burn Chance of Gremlin Experimenter potion throw ability.

[h2]New Logo[/h2]
Our game logo, and all related steam art has been redesigned.
Nearly two years have passed since our Early Access release, and our game has evolved significantly during that time. To reflect this substantial progress, it was time to give our logo a well-deserved update.

We're thrilled with the results of this comprehensive visual revamp. Congratulations to Maxwell Arch for his outstanding work in bringing this vision to life.

[h2]Damage Types[/h2]
All damage is now categorized into six types: Physical, Fire, Thunder, Ice, Hex, and Decay, each with a corresponding resistance type.


These damage types are displayed in the text log. Physical damage is indicated by a simple number, while other damage types are color-coded and display with the name, for example "4 decay". If multiple damage is dealt in the same attack, the break down is shown in brackets.


Wound resistances are displayed separately with their own set of icons, to clearly distinguish them from damage types.


We've also updated creatures, items, and abilities to use the new damage categories appropriately. Also added are new jewelry and armor that offer resistances to specific types of damage.

Please bear with us as we continue to fine-tune these changes! The introduction of damage types is an ongoing effort that will require further adjustments, and additional ways to both deal and resist damage of each type.

[h2]Equipment Icons[/h2]
Added icons for all remaining armor and weapons.


That's a lot of icons! Shout-out to artist Yokcos for his hard work on these.

[h2]Nature Magic & Summoning[/h2]

  • New summoning abilities: "Summon Hawk" and "Summon Bear".
  • Summoned creatures now follow you to new zones.

  • "Nature's Grasp" now packs a punch with bonus true damage to target for every adjacent bramble bush.

[h2]Knockback[/h2]
In addition to its original purpose of displacing enemies, knockback now packs additional tactical surprises that could turn the tide of battle.
  • Entities, including the player, will now instantly perish if knocked back into a pit. Tread carefully!
  • If a loot bag would fall onto an invalid tile (e.g., a pit) upon an enemy's death, it will now move to the nearest valid tile, ensuring your rewards are always within reach.
  • Chain Reaction: If a knocked-back entity is blocked by another entity, the blocking entity is also knocked back. This domino effect can extend up to 7 creatures.
  • Wall Stun: If an entity is knocked back into a wall or immovable object, they will be stunned.

[h2]Other Changes[/h2]
  • Added player footstep sounds, along with a setting to disable it. Footstep sounds change based on terrain and type of boots equipped.

  • Ghosts now hide for 50-100 turns before appearing, and will announce themselves with a sound and notification when they do appear.
