Hi everyone! Community Manager Smoreceror here.
Today, I have the pleasure of revealing all the juicy deats on new modes and features that will be coming to Kritika Online over the next few months. That’s right, it’s time to update the
Developer Roadmap! Let’s start with a look at where we’ve been so far.
In the six months since launch, we and Allm have learned a lot of lessons, and thanks to fantastic player feedback, Kritika Online is taking step after step towards becoming the best game for our players. One of our biggest lessons over the past few months was in regards to our development and release cycles—they were just too quick. While we want to get you guys new stuff to do as soon as possible, we need to make sure it’s bug free and high-quality and we just didn’t hit the mark in those first few updates. We apologize, and we promise to try to do better.
The introduction of the Public Test Server (PTS), and your feedback on it, were invaluable in making sure that we got ahead of big issues before they impacted your characters on live. It worked out so well the first time that we’re going to make it into a regular thing for our big updates from here on out.
Speaking of big updates: The Psion comes to the Public Test Server next week! We’re looking forward to your feedback and assistance with all the bug squashing.
Outside of the PTS, we’ve been chatting with you all to determine what you want more of and less of, and what players feel Kritika Online is missing in its current form. This brings me to the most exciting part of this post: the upcoming Development Roadmap!
There’s a lot of stuff coming in the next few months that we’re super excited about, and we hope you are too. Give it a read, then head over to let us know what you think
in the forums! Now, time to spill the beans.
