Refining style, both in the combat and the city!

[h2]Greetings, Shifters! ✊[/h2]

First off, we want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who participated in our alpha playtest. Your feedback has been invaluable, and we truly appreciate the time and effort you put into helping us improve the game ❀️ We've just turned off access to the alpha build, and we're currently compiling all the results. We'll be back with a summary of the playtests soon!

In the meantime, we've already started implementing changes inspired by your feedback and suggestions. We even uploaded a patch to the build last week! But that's not allβ€”we've been hard at work throughout the entire month.

[h3]Here's a quick rundown of what we've been up to:[/h3]

We've added "Champion" enemies. These tougher foes often have more abilities than their normal counterparts and can appear randomly on the map. You can tell them apart because of their blue outline.

βž• Added Wound Healing to Some Armor
Now, certain armors will grant health regeneration, helping you stay in the fight longer.

[h2]Greetings, Shifters! ✊[/h2]

We wanted to give you a quick update on what's going on at Coridden πŸ˜‰

Right now, we're in the middle of a playtest, and we're testing out an Alpha build of the game. Huge thanks to those of you who decided to play this build and help us catch issues early – your feedback is invaluable! πŸ’ͺ BUT, if you haven't joined the playtests because you don't want your experience to be spoiled, that's absolutely understandable.

🎼 Soundtrack reveal

[h2]Greetings, Shifters! ✊[/h2]

Today, we are beyond excited to share a special part of Coridden with you: the soundtrack. We've had the incredible opportunity to work with Zofia Domaradzka, a brilliant Polish composer known for her work on Timberborn and Yet Another Fantasy Title. Together, we've created a musical experience that will transport you into the heart of Coridden ❀️

Our vision for the soundtrack was to capture the essence of Coridden's beautiful yet perilous world. As you traverse its diverse landscapes, you'll feel the exotic allure and the lurking dangers. When you step into the ancient ruins, the music will take on a mysterious and slightly futuristic tone, mirroring the secrets of a forgotten time.

Recently, we asked for your help in choosing which track to reveal. We held a vote on our Twitter/X and Discord , offering three options: Combat Music, Exploration Music, and the Main Theme. The results were clear – the Main Theme was your top choice, with Exploration Music coming in a close second.

[h3]And now, we're thrilled to present to you the Main Theme of Coridden! πŸŽ‰ [/h3]

After you’ve had a listen, we’d love to hear your thoughts! Share your impressions and join the conversation as we gear up for the full game release. Your feedback and enthusiasm are what drive us forward πŸ’ͺ

Stay tuned for more exciting updates!
