After The End: The Harvest News

Hi everyone,

A new update has been released which addresses the small issues posted in the forums recently.

Also,

Survival Mode!

A Survival option has been added when starting a new file in "Adventure Mode"!

The Survival option allows you to tweak Adventure Mode to create an extra layer of difficulty and urgency whilst adventuring through the cosmos.

HP and MP will drain continuously, even when flying in your ship. Recover by eating, sleeping in beds or drinking potions. Be wary, potions and some foods also contain Toxic Chemicals. Keep your Antidotes in good supply!

When you're out of MP, movement speed will also be affected. Playing an Ether Spell user under these conditions takes on a whole new meaning of maxing out an MP build.

Adventure Mode Choose Starting Location Option:



Prior to V1.4.0, selecting Adventure Mode would spawn the player randomly across various locations. Now, you are given an option whether to spawn randomly or choose from a few locations.

-Fixed bug which could cause the player to become unable to call their spaceship when exiting the town of Malfius on Planet Tremulor.

-Fixed Meerun Ruins Ancient Inscription bug.

-Fixed "Universal Battle Master" Achievement not granting.
If you have completed all of the Pet Battle Leagues, the Achievement should auto grant once turning on the save file.

-Spaceship Enemy AI Movement Tweaked

-Merchant inside of the Pet Battle Master's Champion House has had his stock updated.

-Corrected the teleport when exiting the Centre Galaxy Pet Battle Arena.

-Additional encounters and combat scenarios across various planets and locations


--END PATCH NOTES--

In the next few weeks, please look out for a new updated Elushis Music & Gaming 2018 Roadmap Announcement.

--Update V1.3.1 Patch Notes--

-Recently discovered FPS and Lag Spike issue has been addressed.
FPS stability/performance has been increased dramatically overall, also.

-Slightly faster load times

-Small various adjustments and bug fixes

Thanks, guys!

Hello, everyone.

A sneaky 8mb patch was released a few hours ago which has updated the main title screen music/theme. The original theme that was used suited the game, but ultimately a custom song was desired to represent the final product as we move forward. The new theme is simple and eerie and is a much better representation of the general tone of the game. The theme has been composed by Elushis.

The storefront icons and graphics have also been updated, as well as the main trailer an description texts.

You can view the new trailer directly on the games store page or within the Youtube link below:
