Discard All Hope News

[p][/p][p]To celebrate this spooky festival, Discard All Hope's Demo is getting a major update! [/p][p]Full of quality of life improvements and some behind-the-scenes changes, but most importantly... a very challenging boss fight...[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]This boss can be accessed from a portal by exploring the final area after defeating the Nymph of Maelsid boss fight (the big centipede). He can be fought multiple times and drops rare variants of numerous cards, but beware, he's no push over![/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Additional changes:[/h3]

1. [p]A complete overhaul of the save system. You will no longer lose all your progress when the game is updated, and this paves the way for cloud saves and importing your save into the finished game when it releases![/p]
2. [p]Improved visibility when near tall structures that obscure the player. Roofs and other tall objects now disappear when near them.[/p]
3. [p]Improved visibility of doors.[/p]
4. [p]Added boss names to health bars.[/p]
5. [p]Barrier sigils now point the player to broken barriers. This should make identifying which barriers are affected by sigils a little easier.[/p]
6. [p]Improved tutorial messages and demonstrations.[/p]
7. [p]Added options button from start screen.[/p]
8. [p]Fixed bug where players would move faster after a status effect was removed.[/p]

[p]Please report any and all bugs you find or feedback you have to this discussion board post![/p][p][/p][p]This will likely be the last major demo update for the foreseeable future. Feedback, sharing, and support of Discard All Hope is very appreciated, thank you![/p]

[p]Hello! Thank you for showing interest in my indie game, Discard All Hope! A quick shoutout and thank you to Human Qube and their No Time to Loot Festival, if you found this game through that fest, I'd love to hear about it in the comments![/p][p][/p][h2]Check out the demo HERE![/h2][p][/p][p]If you are new , Discard All Hope is:[/p]

• [p]A "twin stick" shooter (it does support Mouse and Keyboard though)[/p]
• [p]An Action RPG with an emphasis loot.[/p]
• [p]A deckbuilder.[/p]
• [p]Placed in a late Gothic Victorian horror setting.[/p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Discard All Hope is a particularly good fit for the No Time to Loot festival as it's all about looting new spells for you deck of cards. These cards act as both attacks/abilities, but also function similarly to equipment by boosting your passive stats and affecting your elemental resistances.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
