Greetings @everyone!
Here we are with a new Update!
Update 14 – Power and Fury, is now out on Steam!
Sooooo... What’s up?! V0.14.3: 75cc17c4
Medallions & Looters Rework
It’s been a long time since we tweaked / reworked our medallion design it was about time that we put our hands in there!
We reworked ALL medallions and looters
- Design of all the medallions has been reworked.
- You now have 4 categories:
- Common Medallions: Work in pairs (right & left), each medallion has a bonus, but having both parts equipped will boost the bonus of each. Their bonuses are focused on flat stats improvements, such as damage, or defense.
- Rare Medallions: Those unique medallions bring additional effects to your attacks and movements. Use them to shape your builds wisely.
- Legendary Medallions: Like the previous ones, they have unique attributes but a scale that can be completely game changer for your build.
- Corrupted Medallions: You know the drill. Great bonuses and effects, but with a counterpart.
- Common Medallions: Work in pairs (right & left), each medallion has a bonus, but having both parts equipped will boost the bonus of each. Their bonuses are focused on flat stats improvements, such as damage, or defense.
- Looters have been reworked too
- Blood Altar is now a “gambling machine” where you pay with your max health to get items. Each time you use it repeatedly, the more chances you have to get greater loot!
- Medallion Altar is also a “gambling machine”, but you pay with gold. And of course, the more you use it, the more chances you have to get great loot.
- Boss Looters have been removed.
- The “Weapon Looter” has been moved to the beginning of each biome and is now more of a “Start Looter” giving you lots of gold, lots of Soul Cinders, max health or a Medallion Slot.
- Astara is back at improving weapons, up to 2 times.
- Shops' loot has been adjusted too.
- Removed gold reward and cost scaling across biomes. Gold value should be more consistent and relevant now.
- The overall balancing has been tweaked to follow all these modifications. (Your feedback is more than welcome on that part!)
- Blood Altar is now a “gambling machine” where you pay with your max health to get items. Each time you use it repeatedly, the more chances you have to get greater loot!
- Skills have been adjusted accordingly.
- Added medallions view in HUD that reacts with their activation and state.
- 3 new tools have been added:
- Blowgun
- Fire Vial
- Bladed Cyclone
- Blowgun
Gonna need to unlock them first though.
- We’ve also reworked how the Saw works. Now it drops a Saw Trap that goes back and forth. AND! It doesn't hurt you anymore! :D
Traversal Polish
- We worked on improving the overall Traversal smoothness, trying to reduce the stickiness.
- Dash, Jump and Kick animations have been reworked, and variations have been added.
Optimization
- Loadings should now be way smoother and shorter, avoiding spikes.
- Overall performances should be better too.
- Screen resolutions are now unlocked!
- The list available in the option is now based on the resolutions supported by your monitor.
- The list available in the option is now based on the resolutions supported by your monitor.
Thanks a lot!
Baguette Squad out.
Power and Fury update - more powerful builds and big improvements for controls!
Hello,
We're back with a game-changing new update - Power and Fury!
Builds now feel way more powerful & intuitive and we've improved the traversal controls to be smoother, snappier and more precise.
Basically, we've beefed up everything, so check it out!
If you prefer your update info in video form, watch this, otherwise read on!
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
[h3]Control improvements[/h3]
You'll really need to play to feel the difference of all this, but here's what we've changed!
Global
Each aspect on its own might seem minor, but add it all up and the controls feel way better - let us know how it feels!
[h3]Medallions[/h3]
ALL medallions have been changed - effects are now more straightforward and easy to understand how they will, or won't, fit in your build.
Each medallion has an impact that you'll feel straight away, with their effects magnifying as you pick up others. So basically your choices will be more meaningful and feel more satisfying.
Here's a quick breakdown of how the new medallions are grouped, in their 4 levels of rarity - basic, rare, legendary and legendary (corrupted).
Basic
Bonuses focused on flat stat improvements, stuff like increase weapon damage, increase Vayu's Breath accumulation rate, increase gold gains - 'basic' upgrades that will still make a noticeable difference as soon as you pick them up.
These are split in pairs (right & left), each medallion will give a bonus on its own, but having both parts equipped will boost the bonus of both. i.e. you have one 'weapon damage increased by 10%' medallion, then you pick up it's twin, and now both the medallions have a 15% effect, giving 30% total.
Rare
Medallions which give additional effects to your attacks and movements - stuff you can create specific builds around, like critical hits stun nearby enemies, attacks have a chance to burn enemies, or reduce damage taken by the amount of gold you have.
You'll want to pick these up with certain weapons or medallions to create amazing builds.
Legendary
Medallions you just WANT to find each time - the 'God Run' medallions.
Think of things like block the next attack you receive (recharges), grant 1 Seal of Zurvan (revive to 50% health if you die), dashing triggers Vayu's Breath.
Legendary (Corrupted)
Trade-off upgrades which can create a very powerful combination with another medallion (or even on their own!), but will punish you if you're not careful.
For example, increase damage dealt but also damage received, have a chance to block damage but all healing is reduced, increase critical damage but reduce base damage.
Overall
You should see that it is much easier to figure out where medallions will create synergies with other medallions and with specific weapons.
This will give you much more choice in how to shape each run and make your builds feel more powerful.
[h3]New tools[/h3]
We've also added 3 new tools:
The overall balancing has been tweaked to follow all these modifications. Your feedback is more than welcome on all of these changes, as always :)
And that's everything!
We'll be back soon,

[h3]Control improvements[/h3]
You'll really need to play to feel the difference of all this, but here's what we've changed!

- In case you missed it, input lag was reduced in a previous update
- Adjusted its detection distance and trajectory
- New animation
- Smoother movement
- Can interrupt the movement quicker with a dash, attack or jump
- Lasts longer than before
- More actions add to its gauge - water slide and jumps off the back wall

Test Branch: new gameplay with medallion overhaul + BIG controller improvements
Instructions to access this test branch are at the end of this post.
Hello,
We're back with a new update for the TEST BRANCH! We've changed all the medallions so builds are much more intuitive and impactful, PLUS we've improved lots of aspects of the parkour/traversal, especially that sticky/magnetic feeling (all this is coming to the main game soon).
Basically, playing is gonna feel better for both traversal and combat!
PLEASE NOTE: As this is a test branch, there will be some over and underpowered things, some bugs, and the game might crash. Please consider this before playing (but this update IS awesome).
[h3]What we're changing[/h3]
So! There are two main changes in this test branch update:
We've also added 3 new tools, reworked the 'looters' a bit and optimised loading screens & general performance!
[h3]Medallions[/h3]
There are no more super-specific criteria like 'when energy is over 80%, increase critical damage by 20%'. Effects are more straightforward and easy to understand how they will, or won't, fit in your build.
You should feel the effect of each medallion straight away as you advance through your run, with their effects getting magnified as you pick up others, if you pick the right ones. So basically your choices will be more difficult, will matter more, and will feel more satisfying!
Here's a quick breakdown of how the new medallions are grouped, in their 4 levels of rarity - basic, rare, legendary and legendary (corrupted).
Basic
Bonuses focused on flat stat improvements. These are split in pairs (right & left), each medallion will give a bonus on its own, but having both parts equipped will boost the bonus of each.
So this is stuff like increase weapon damage, increase Vayu's Breath accumulation rate, increase gold gains - 'basic' upgrades that will still make a noticeable difference as soon as you pick them up.
Rare
Medallions which give additional effects to your attacks and movements - stuff you can create specific builds around.
Upgrades like critical hits stun nearby enemies, attacks have a chance to burn enemies, or reduce damage taken by the amount of gold you have.
You'll want to pick these up with certain weapons or medallions to really make good use of their properties.
Legendary
Medallions you just WANT to find each time - the 'God Run' medallions.
Think of things like block the next attack you receive (recharges), grant 1 Seal of Zurvan (revive to 50% health if you die), dashing triggers Vayu's Breath.
Legendary (Corrupted)
Trade-off upgrades which can create a very powerful combination with another medallion (or even on their own!), but will punish you if you're not careful.
For example, increase damage dealt but also damage received, have a chance to block damage but all healing is reduced, increase critical damage but reduce base damage.

We're very curious how you find these changes so please do give us your feedback!

We've also added 3 new tools:
Let us know how they feel too!
[h3]Optimization [/h3]
The overall balancing has been tweaked to follow all these modifications. Again, your feedback is more than welcome on these changes.
And that's everything!
[h3]How to access the test branch and where to leave feedback[/h3] FIRST: BACKUP YOUR SAVE DATA
We recommend to do this just in case the worst happens. So to backup your save file, go to where you have your Steam folder installed, then follow this path:
Steam folder -> userdata folder -> your user id folder (if you have multiple steam accounts you'll need to find the right one) -> 2717880 folder -> remote folder -> copy the file called 'global' and stick it somewhere safe on your computer.
Mine looks like this, but your user id folder with have a different number of course!
If you still want to get stuck in, here's what to do:
Go to The Rogue Prince of Persia in your Steam Library -> click on the gear icon on the far right.
Click on Properties and a pop-up box will appear.
Click on Betas.
Opposite where it says 'Beta Participation', click on the dropdown menu where it says 'None' and select 'publictestversion'.
Update the game and you're good to go!
To change back to the standard game, just go back into the betas section, click on the same dropdown menu (it will now say publictestversion) then select 'None' and update the game.
To leave feedback you can go to the Suggestions/Feedback forum here on Steam, better yet go to our Discord, and go to 'The Rogue - Test Branch' section.
We'll be back soon, and here are the known bugs!
