SpellRogue News

We are getting close to having the next SpellRogue update ready!
Our main goal for this update has been adding more customization possibilities and synergies, as well as making late game drafting more engaging, with more interesting choices and varied builds.
Without further ado, here's a sneak peek at just some of what's in store!

[h2]Runes[/h2]
Introducing Runes, a new way to further enhance your Spells! A Rune can be inserted into a Spell to provide permanent improvements, and are intended to bridge builds and help give you that bit of synergy a Spell might lack by itself. Pre-Runed Spells can also tempt you when choosing new Spells, even if it isn’t a perfect fit for your current build.

Runes are found in random events and occasionally in Spell drafts.

[h2]Overhaul of Spells & Upgrades[/h2]
While most Spells have kept their role and identity, we’ve made a lot of adjustments to make Spells fit into multiple different builds. Additionally, we tweaked the rarity of Spells so that Common spells are slightly weaker, while Rare Spells are somewhat stronger (but tend to show up later).
Many Spell upgrades have also received significant changes to provide better synergy & combo potential, while slightly reducing their average strength. Our ongoing goal is to make Shards more in line with other rewards, so that you are not only concerned about gathering as many Shards as possible (the new Rune system also helps a lot!).

Some Spells have been reworked to provide more interesting effects and different ways to use them.

Some upgrades, status effects and dice enchantments have been reworked to open up for alternative playstyles.

Certain strong Spells have gotten more specific dice requirements.

We even redesigned a few Signature Spells.

PLEASE NOTE: The above examples may still change as we are still balancing and tweaking numbers.

[h2]Legends speaks of a divine beast[/h2]
Prepare yourself for a great menace lurking in the shadows of the void. From a realm beyond your comprehension, a new terror is awakening, ready to unleash havoc in Update 4. Are you ready to encounter the new divine threat in the Void?

[h2]“Experimental” design changes[/h2]
While we are really happy with the state of the update, there are a ton of changes. Our ultimate goal is to make SpellRogue the very best it can be, so we are experimenting with every part of the game - even if some changes can feel odd initially. This is the exact reason for being in Early Access in the first place, so please drop by our Discord server or post on the Steam forums and join the discussion! We will be listening closely to your feedback, and are planning to make a follow-up patch shortly after Update 4 in particular to address any bigger balance issues that may crop up due to the amount of new stuff.
We hope you’re as excited about these changes as we are! Update 4 is ready fairly soon, so keep your eyes peeled 👀


May your dice roll true 🧙

Greetings Dice Slingers,

This small patch is to fix bugs, adjust some balance issues and update missing translations.

The biggest change is that we have added a normal Spell draft back into the Elite reward again. We initially removed it to reduce how many spells you gain each run, and thus make drafts more important throughout the game (especially towards the end). However, Elites ended up too rarely being worth the risk, so this is a small band-aid to improve it while we work on the next update.


[hr][/hr]

• Added a Spell draft to Elite rewards
  
• Added option to skip Boss rewards
  
• Updated translations for new & changed content

Tim & Thorbjørn

Today we are releasing the third update for SpellRogue!

A big focus for this one has been to improve Rituals and their place in SpellRogue. We felt like Rituals occasionally became a button you simply had to remember to press, so one of our primary goals has been to have more interesting choices for deciding when to cast them.

Many Rituals are now usable at intervals with different effects and added choices.

We also reworked map tiles and map generation: The elite reward has been severely reduced and now only provides an Artifact draft along with its high gold reward (so no more bonus Spell draft!), while dedicated Shard tiles only give a Shard and no gold/potions.
There are also other important changes like how Rituals are now mainly gained as boss rewards along with the regular Boss Artifact that you are used to receiving there.
We’re quite happy with the new direction as the balance between rewards seem to offer much more interesting choices on the world map, but we’re also eager to hear what you think of the changes!

Shards are now randomly placed on the map as well. There’s even an occasional Ritual Tile.

We added new “Destroy Dice” interactions to the game. Although we had this mechanic for a while, the game was really missing some more ways to combo and play around with dice destruction.

Ending turn with available dice now also destroys the unused ones!

There are also a couple of new monsters & combat encounters, improved graphics for several monsters in act 3, and added artwork for the random events throughout the game (although in various states of work-in-progress).

These poor Imp’s act as the vessel of the Master’s fiery magic.

Examples of some of the new event artwork being added.

Please note!: There are a lot of changes in this update, some of which we are still not 100% sure about. Please let us know what you think on the SpellRogue Discord or on the Steam forums. We want to keep experimenting and improving mechanics, so we hope you can forgive us if we broke your favorite mechanic or spell.

There are also a whole bunch of other changes and new content, which you can check out in more detail below!

If you have gotten this far, thanks for reading! One final thing we wanted to let you know about is the small Supporter Pack dlc we put together for SpellRogue, that will soon be available on the Steam page. It gives some minor cosmetic changes in the form of gold trimmings on characters, but it is essentially just a way to further support our work.

Just dropping a quick steam post to share some news on what’s happening with SpellRogue.

Update 3 is taking a little longer than originally expected, but we’re starting to wrap things up and aiming to release it in early May.

For this update we have been taking a step back to reevaluate systems and mechanics, so we have been playing around with a lot of experimental changes. This includes testing a new Ritual design, experimenting with separating Artifacts and Shards rewards on the map and looking into replacing the draft “reroll for gold” with “skip to gain gold” (NOTE: We are still not sure which experimental changes will make it into Update 3).

Besides that we have also been cooking up a few other notable changes:

• Added story text and image to Event map tiles.
  
• Changed font and increased font sizes to improve readability.
  
• Improved graphics for several The Void enemies.
  

In other news, Ghost Ship is hosting another “On the Horizon” live stream this week, where we have a timeslot to discuss our Early Access journey so far, and talk more in depth about the upcoming changes!
Read more about it on their Agenda Steam post:

Finally, a shout out to As We Descend: A gorgeous strategy roguelike deckbuilder being developed by our friends at Box Dragon being published by Coffee Stain Publishing:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1769830/As_We_Descend/

Go check out the beautiful art, and give some love to our fellow turn based roguelike devs by wishlisting their game! They are also running a closed beta so go sign up here for a chance to check out an early version of the game, it’s great!

Greetings Dice Slingers,

This hotfix addresses the issue resulting in a black screen when ending the game and entering the summary screen when playing in languages other than english.

Apologies to those who have been affected.
