A new demo version 1.4.2 has been released. Let's have a look at the improvements and bugfixes:

• fixed issue where the game did not start for some players
  
• lockpicking - it is now shown if you have enough DEX to open a chest
  
• fixed issue where some players got stuck at the randomly placed objects of the mountain path
  
• changed the scaling of the blood weapons to scale with VIT
  
• changed the balancing of some of the blood dungeon enemies
  
• crystal bulwark boss is now slightly more challenging
  
• fixed the blood splatter of the orc skeletons
  
• changed the placement of the goblin cave entrance
  
• outlaw mine entrance is now more obvious
  

Unfortunately, as the Steam Next Fest is over, the maximum level cap achievable in the demo is decreased once again to level 10. But don't worry, the level cap in the final release will we way higher.

Again, thank you all so much for playing the demo and your feedback. Without your support and valuable feedback this game would not be as it is today.

Have a great day,
Lukas

A lot has been developed in 2024 and most of the goals were met. Let’s have a look at my favourite new features or improvements of 2024:

• Discord community
  
• New regions, dungeons and bosses
  
• New armor slots
  
• Improved items
  
• Improved combat
  
• Sound overhaul
  
• Dialogue portraits
  
• Mod support
  

What to expect in 2025?

• Main quest - the most important thing is to finish all the dungeons and bosses required for the main story.
  
• Optional content - alongside the main quest I want to provide more optional content to discover. Not only dungeons and bosses, but also quests and lore information spread around the world of Grenmark.
  
• Your input - I am not the only one with ideas on how to improve Pale Coins or what content to add. Implementing your feedback and your ideas is as important as implementing the content I have planned. Please let me know your thoughts and I'll gladly add them where I see fit.

That's all for now. Thank you so much reading and see you in 2025!

Happy new year and best regards,
Lukas
