Nordic Ashes News

Update v0.12.6

Hello Vikings!
Hope you’re having a nice week! ːNA_Leafː

[h2]Beta tomorrow[/h2]
We need one more day to finish polishing the Muspelheim beta, so we decided to delay it one day. Tomorrow it will be up so you can try it!
However, we still have a few interesting updates for today anyway!

[h2]Human Blud[/h2]
As Spooky Season just ended, our dear Blud decided to share his former appearance. Maxim will be available as his human-form skin too!



[h2]New Ragnarok levels[/h2]
We have 3 new additions to this challenging game mode:
Helheim Ragnarok levels I-V
Jotunheim and Vanaheim levels VI & VII



[h2]Fixes and improvements[/h2]
  • You could move while the run was loading.
  • Vanaheim statue lasers no longer attack you just right after the run begins.
  • Thyra’s arrows movement was different depending on your framerate.
  • Most Polish translations are updated.

We will be back tomorrow to share the beta news and how you can access!
Cheers!

Update v0.12.5

Greetings vikings!

Just one week left for Muspelheim Beta! We are currently building the realm so everything is ready for next Thursday!
For today’s update we’ve done the following:

[h2]Nightmare Mode[/h2]
Nightmare Mode will be available on Jotunheim and Vanaheim too. That makes 5 realms in the hardest mode! Survive the Jotunheim’s freezing weather or maybe fight elemental creatures on Vanaheim in extreme difficulty!


[h2]Helheim OST[/h2]
We finally have Helheim soundtrack! Check out Rubén Melià’s amazing work as you run through the lands of the dead.


[h2]Spooky season [/h2]
Spooky Season ends in 1 week, on November 2nd, so be sure to explore Midgard before decorations turn back to normal.
Last chance to get Amaranth’s themed skin too until next year!



[h2]Fixes and improvements[/h2]
  • Soul Charger relic was too powerful regarding Rare relics. It will now become an Epic relic instead of a Rare. And the 1% probability of earning half a blue heart will now be 0.25%. However, the relic will still be pretty strong.
  • There was a bug on the “Yesterday’s Challenge” where 500 seed reward was shown instead of 250.
  • Some shrines were blocked by props on Svartalfheim.
  • Some stats were showing decimals incorrectly.

And that’s all for today! Next week we will update with Muspelheim beta, can’t wait!!

Update v0.12.4

Hello! ːNA_Crystalː
New Thursday, new update! Here's what we've got for you today:

[h2]Thyra Improvements [/h2]
Many of you have shared your opinion that Thyra should be boosted. Here’s what we’ve added:
  • Thyras Final Shot arrow ascension now has autoaim and will search for the closest enemy. There will be as many giant arrows as projectiles Thyra has.
  • Thyra’s Shooter relic now adds 1 extra global projectile instead of just adding it to her relics.
  • The Mighty Daggers have a higher probability of shooting more daggers each time.

[h2]Blud Improvements[/h2]
  • Blud’s ultimate ability Area has been increased from 1.5 to 2.5
  • Blud could lose all his red health with his passive if he had blue health
  • Blud will now be able to unlock 4 new relics so all characters can enjoy them!

[h2]Daily Challenge[/h2]
Thanks to your feedback, you will now be able to receive rewards from the day before challenge in case you missed it! To make things fair, you will earn the Golden Badge and half of the seeds when winning. However, you won’t appear on that day’s leaderboard.

We're still working on this game mode so it is better balanced.

[h2]We’ve changed how manual aim input works[/h2]
Some relics have manual aim. You can now enable/disable this option by clicking the left button of your mouse or when using controller, by moving the right joystick.
We hope this makes manual aim easier to experience. Please let us know your thoughts!

[h2]Fixes:[/h2]
  • Items could be sold twice to Olga in some cases.
  • Olga’s was enabled on Innate skills too.
  • If you sell a relic that granted you heart containers, you will now lose them (this wasn’t working properly).
  • Regarding Potion restrictions, when potions “appear” in Gnöki’s realm, they will now show up as “sold” instead of appearing.

[h2]Sneak peek[/h2]
And finally! We can show you a WIP from the characters Mastery Trees!



That's all for today! Wish you an amazing rest of the week!

Update v0.12.3

Hello!
Today’s update goes as follows:

[h3]Innate Skills[/h3]
  • We’ve added to the character’s constellation new information, called “Innate skills”. These are the unique abilities of each of the characters. This way, you will be able to check the information any time while you are playing, instead of just finding it on the Character Selection screen.
  • Thyra and Hafgrim have now their own innate skils.
  • Catrina Amaranth’s ultimate ability was lacking its Halloween skin.
  • Translations improved.

[h3]Muspelheim Sneak Peek[/h3]
Today’s update was brief, but that’s because we’re working on the new realm, Muspelheim, land of fire and demons! Here’s a sneak peek.



[h3]Roadmap[/h3]
The new roadmap we will follow during the next weeks will look like this (in case we need one extra week for any of the following updates, we will notify it):
  • October 19th: New relics, fixes, improvements and suggestions.
  • October 26th : Nightmare Mode in more realms.
  • November 2nd : End of Spooky Season. Muspelheim Beta. Ragnarok in more Realms.

Hello!

Today we wanted to update with a fix about a few things you have reported:

  • The Pumpkin relic alpha was not working.
  • Some crates were impossible to break.
  • In some runs, obelisks and the Healing Shrine did not appear.
  • Healing Shrine kept appearing on the mini map after being activated.
  • Raid Shrines were not working properly in some cases.
  • NPC Blud appearing in Gnöki's Realm didn't have the correct animation set.


We know some people experienced game crashes with the last update. We hope that is fixed too. Please let us know!
