Improvements and getting ready for alpha ๐Ÿฒ

[h2]Greetings, Shifters! โœŠ๐Ÿฒ[/h2]

We've been very focused on work lately, time has been flying by so fast we've forgotten to share our progress! ๐Ÿ™ˆ

As usual, we keep working on adding content, such as skills and quests, but there has also been quite a lot of work with preparing everything for translation. Quests and translation work is kind of hard to show off ๐Ÿ˜… But luckily, we have these two fiery beast skills to share with you! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

More in the upcoming Changelog!

We're also getting ready for Alpha tests we want to start soon. Ping us on Discord if you'd like to be among the first to explore Coridden's unique environment and turn into creatures with awesome moves such as above ๐Ÿฒ

Also, we'll make the demo available soon. A lot of you found Coridden when the demo was no longer available and regretted not having a chance to play it. We hear you! We'll keep you updated when it comes to dates, so start gathering your teams!

And since we're talking about trying out games, we'll be taking part in the Indie Showcase during Digital Dragons in Cracow, Poland! ๐Ÿฒ It's one of the biggest B2B gamedev conferences in Europe and we can't wait to meet other developers to exchange experiences and get inspired ๐Ÿคฉ Digital Dragons starts on May 19th and will last for three whole days.

Custom Classes, Alterants, and More!

[h2]Greetings, Shifters! โœŠ๐Ÿฒ[/h2]

Following the successful Kickstarter campaign, we've hit the ground running, already implementing the stretch goals that were reached. March has been a particularly productive month for us, with significant progress made in many areas of our project ๐Ÿ˜Š

One of the key areas we've been focusing on is the development of Alterants and the Forge. We added basic support for the stretch goal "Alterant Sequences", and are now updating all Alterants to give them names and more set stats to make it easier to recognize them. The Forge has also seen some improvements. Players will now be able to access all items there, even those stored in their stash. Additionally, we've introduced a preview feature that displays item name, level, alternate spaces, and eventual alternate names + alternate sequence name when standing over items on the ground.



Another stretch goal we've successfully implemented is the Custom class. This new feature gives players the freedom to select one of the 12 skill tabs each time they reach the required level to unlock a new tab. Basically, you will be able to mix and match any 3 skill tabs you like ๐Ÿ˜

We've also been hard at work optimizing the effect system. While this has required us to redo some effects, it will ultimately help to reduce lag spikes in the long run. We're also continuing to add and polish skills. For instance, we've introduced a new skill for the Guardian class: Rally Flag. This ability damages enemies around it upon landing and then acts as a buff zone for you and your allies.



Lastly, we're proud to announce that our game, Coridden, was showcased during PAX East in Boston. This was a fantastic opportunity for us to share our work with a wider audience and receive valuable feedback ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Important Figures Behind our Protagonists โœจ

[h2]Greetings, Shifters! โœŠ๐Ÿฒ[/h2]

In the previous update, we introduced you to our main protagonists - the Dayal siblings. Today, we wanted to tell you more about the characters that are the closest to them. Let's talk about their family, their roles and challenges in a post-apocalyptic world.



[h3]Charvi โ€“ Mother of the siblings[/h3]
Charvi is a kind, caring and determined woman. She has been managing the family tech shop inherited from her and her sister Iraโ€™s parents for many years. She raised all of her children mostly by herself, with the occasional help of their father and her sister (when they weren't busy scavenging). Many people in Quilon know that they can not only go to her to buy and fix things, but hire help to perform requests that only scavengers take upon themselves. Charvi is also known for always trying to help someone in some way, regardless of how much money someone might have.

[h3]Ira โ€“ Charvi's sister, siblings aunt[/h3]
Ira is energetic, positive and smart. She never wanted to have a family herself, but she always stayed close to Charvi and helped her raise her children as much as she could. She has a lot of joy and pride being an aunt. Ira has a brilliant, inventive mind, and loves tinkering with tech. It seems that she especially enjoys experimenting with creating new types of weapons...



[h3]Najji โ€“ Father of the siblings[/h3]
Najji is a protective, calm and street-smart person. He's an explorer and scavenger who brings in all sorts of tech, parts and other resources needed for Charvi and Ira to conduct their business. Although he loves his family, he has to spend a lot of time apart from them, making sure he can provide for all of them.

There is one additional person you should definitely meet as well.

[h3]Maya - Digital mind and companion[/h3]
Maya is an artificial intelligence residing inside the gauntlets of the siblings. While we are familiar with AI, this is something they have not encountered before. Maya can see and hear everything the siblings can, and talks to them in a way that sounds just like a voice in their head. Sheโ€™s there to help the ones who wear the gauntlets in any way they need, by making her calculated statements, analysis and can also interact with a lot of tech.



We hope this insight into the family dynamics has sparked your curiosity and deepened your connection with Coridden ๐Ÿ˜Š If you have any questions - we're more than happy to answer them!
