Hello Dear players,

Finally, we are releasing the last update for Warstone. It contains nothing new but a huge list of fixed bugs. We always wanted to make Warstone immortal, so we spent so much time on polishing it.

We really happy what we brought development of the game to its logical end. It was a great adventure. Development of Warstone began in 2013 as a game for social networks. It evolved later into PC game (thanks to Steam Greenlight). There was a 1 year of Early Access with adding a lot of new stuff to the game. Long awaited release was in 2018. We participated in 2 Steam Daily Promo and had a part in one of Humble Bundle Monthly. We temporarily stopped development of other game to complete Astral Voyage DLC. We translated whole game to 9 other languages. We spent several months to port the game and make full Offline mode. Finally, we fixed all bugs we found. So we proudly send Warstone to its endless independent journey with faces full of happiness.

Thanks for playing our game! Really!

P.S. If you haven't left a review yet, then please do it now. It is the best time for this action. Just write a couple of words about the game! Thanks in advance.



We are still there. The game should be in perfect state. BUT if you will meet a nasty bug which doesn't let you play the game with joy - let us know. We are ready to release hot fixes for the next month.

Also, we added an option to start the game in Windowed mode with selected screen resolution. A lot of people asked for that. Finally, we revised Mac. It works OK.

And we need more players with Linux to be sure the game works fine for you.

Version 2.12 is here now!



Hello there,

We are keeping polishing Warstone TD. It is pre-final version now. There won't be any new features. We are going to fix remaining bugs.

We added Steam Cloud Saves during development of 2.11 version. It had a big flow what players couldn't keep save files on their PC. So, we made an another system in 2.12. The game uses PC save file as priorited. If there is no save file on the PC (player deleted it or reinstalled game) then the game will download it from Steam Cloud. Now players can keep and share their save files whatever they want and do not fear to lose their progress.

Also, we made Offline mode is default for Chinese players, because they are having troubles often playing Online.

[h2]Patch #10[/h2]
Hello players,
We are working hard during last weeks trying to make Offline mode works perfect. We released 10th patch. We never did so much patches for 1 update. We fixed a lot of bugs and it works almost good.
But we made a mistake. We were working with Steam Cloud and we deleted save files by mistake. We really apologize for it. Steam Cloud will work soon and this never happen again.

We made a package with several save files and added pictures of game progress. Download it, take a look. And use a file which is closer to your previous progress. We hope it can decrease negative feelings.

There is a package with 14 save files.

[h2]Original Text[/h2]
Hello there,
We have great news. Our programmer worked hard during last months. And he did it. He ported all server code to the client code. So, in this update we have added a complete offline version of the game.
It is a really solid work. It is like to write whole game code from the beginning, because he moved the code from one programming language to another one. He spent more than 400 man hours and more than 4 months in total. We did it, because A LOT of players asked for full offline version. So, here it comes!

Offline mode works as you would play alone in the server and this server is located on your PC. It means, you do not need internet connection at all. There is no lags and no delays. You can move your save_file whatever your want to continue playing.

You can move from Offline to Online version of the game at any time in the main menu. These versions use different save files, so you won't lose your progress if you want to try Offline version. If you want to move your progress from Online version to Offline version - write in the forum.

There is no multiplayer in Offline version. You still can play co-op missions in solo. Also, offline accounts don't participate in leaderboards.



Also, we started making a new guide with all info about game mods and hidden features. It is still in a progress. We are going to finish it in the next update. Section about repetitive rewards are completely finished for now.

You can help us with your ideas what we should add to this guide also.

Original game (online version) is almost bug-free. We have only 20 tasks in our track list. Most of them are so small, so you can't even notice it. We are working on fixing them.

Offline version requires a lot of testing and checking. Basically, it feels like we should test every spell, item, upgrade, ability and check/fix it. So, you can help us with your bug reports. It will speed up the development, so complete bug-free version will come sooner. Thanks in advance.
