Coreless: Prologue News

1. Major performance optimizations. We are continuing to make further improvements as needed.
2. Fixed a bug where non-English versions of the game could not be properly launched. In addition, we are nearing the completion of the localization files for Simplified and Traditional Chinese, which we plan to release next week or shortly after.
3. Streamlined the monster difficulty curve: normal monsters have had their overall health and attack further reduced, and elites have had their attributes scaled back to feel less obstructive. Additionally, Stage 4 monsters and their abilities have been adjusted to offer smoother challenge progression.
4. Fixed a bug where Dungeon levels would not properly spawn afflict upgrades.
5. Fixed a bug where Alien Land (purple) would occasionally spawn collectables on top of Roots.
6. Luminaire now gains the ability to jump twice.
7. Added the option to disable screen shake.
8. Various UI improvements and bug fixes.

We are excited to announce the release of Coreless: Prologue today! This marks the second major milestone in the development of Coreless, following the initial demo earlier this year and leading up to its eventual Early Access release.

In this prologue, you’ll experience a full-fledged solo-play version featuring core systems from the full game. It includes four main campaign levels, two difficulty settings, a talent tree, a research facility, the power system, a companion system, and the instruction processing system! There are two playable characters, each with a complete set of upgrade options for you to experiment with and customize your builds.

We hope Coreless: Prologue brings you hours of fun! We’d love to hear your feedback and thoughts in our Steam forum. As a micro team of just two developers, we currently only have the resources to manage communication through the Steam forum. However, we plan to launch a Discord server once our workload lightens. In the meantime, we’re happy to answer questions and engage with everyone on the forum.
