Hotfix 0.452 changes:

• Fixes issue where the mouse was invisible when a controller is connected
  
• Fixes issue where the main tutorial would break with a controller connected
  
• Fixed issue where some texts in battle dice would get out of border
  

Spooky Halloween for all the brave warriors and citizens of the “IndieKingdom”.
The day has arrived and the much anticipated Patch 0.45 is finally here!

There a lot of new things, and we previously mentioned the highlights of this patch.
Now, as patch 0.45 is live – we can show you the whole content of the patch!

In the “IndieKingdom” we also celebrate Halloween! The town is filled with spooky stuff!
And in the survival mode you will fight endless pumpkin-head enemies (be careful not to become one of them…) Be sure to check it out.

Please welcome Russian and French players to the warriors family, as we added support for their native languages! This time, we went one step further and added culture-jokes for each of the languages.
As you know we are constantly adding more content and languages as requested. So if you would like to see your language in our game, please let us know in the forums!

We added some new quests that you can encounter between the fights!
These new quests are funny and have new and unexpected outcomes!
Look out for new variations for the existing ones as well.

And mainly, we added the “Rally the crowd!” action in combat.
As previously explained, whenever you excite the crowd you gain a “crowd bar”.
Gain enough crowd bars, and you can rally the crowd to turn the tide of battle to your favor.
This new action really makes combat more diverse and give additional weight to the “Crowd” fighting style.
If you gain 8 bars, something unexpected will happen!

Beside that we have added survival leaderboard in the main menu, and as promised, a “hall of fame” screen where you can find all the players who finished the game.
Are you on that list??????????????

As always, we are more than happy to hear your thoughts and suggestions in all our community channels!

Greetings brave warriors!

We know you haven't heard from us since the release of patch 0.44 (which added controller support, shields and more).
We have been really busy working on patch 0.45. At first it was supposed to be a simple patch, but as the Gavra way - we just can't settle for small things :)

In patch 0.45, we are going to include cool new features we have been working on. The main features are:

New "Rally the crowd!" Action:

For sometime you, our players have been telling us that the crowd needs to be more involved and have heavier impact in combats.
So we listened, and added a cool new action - "Rally the crowd!"
In patch 0.45 you can command the crowd to "Boo" your opponent, throwing bananas at him and some other stuff (we don't want to spoil yet).

So how it works? when entertaining the crowd, you gain the normal crowd excitement, and with it, crowd bars. When you reach enough bars the action is unlocked. The more crowd bars you have, the higher the action level is.

• level 1 - throw bananas, lightly drain your opponent crowd excitement and lightly damage him.
  
• level 2 - throw bananas, medium drain your opponent crowd excitement, medium damage him and root him to his current grid for 2 turns.
  
• level 3 - throw bananas, Heavy drain your opponent crowd excitement, Heavy damage him and stun him for 1 turn.
  
  

With this action, the crowd is more involved, and getting crowd excitement is becoming more vital. We hope you will like it!

Survival Leaderboard:

In patch 0.45 we are adding the "Survival Leaderboard" that will appear in the main menu. Whenever you finish a run in the Survival mode, your score will be uploaded to the global leaderboard. Letting you compete in global rankings! you can see the top 5 players and where you are standing against them.

This feature lays the first stone towards multiplayer and online components!

Hall of Fame:

We added a new Hall of Screen in which you can see every player who finished the final boss (Currently Azar - Molded by fire).
So when the patch is out - look for your name!

And of course, we are adding many more improvements (warriors can have a different color for the hair and beard), balance changes and bug fixes.

Patch 0.45 is going to be released next week, so stay tuned for news!

Until then - have fun and try to keep your nuts safe.

Greetings barve warriors!
As we announced a couple of weeks ago, we at Gavra Games were hard at work preparing the next update, Patch 0.44, with some exciting new features and content for you. The most important one is gamepad controls: from now on, Warriors: Rise to Glory! fully supports gamepads. Local couch multiplayer has a whole new meaning when you can actually sit on your couch with a friend, a gamepad, and the intention of kicking some asses to please the crowd.

We’re adding some new shields to the game (spiked, dark elf, Roman, Samurai, and Homeless shields), as well as a 3rd level tier for a lot of skills. That on top of many fixes, changes, customization, and quality-of-life additions. Check out the full patch notes below. We hope you like this new update; don’t hesitate to join as on our Discord server to comment all the new content and tell us about your experience playing with a gamepad, and remember that we’re open to receiving feedback for future updates. Good luck in the arena!

As usual, we invite you to talk with us on our various community channels.

Welcome, warriors! Sit down and relax. I said relax, guys – yeah, that includes your swords, axes, bows, and other tools of destruction, alright? Bloodthirsty Danny, would you be so kind as to move your knife away from that guy’s throat? I would prefer if you do not paint the floor of this tavern with blood, thank you very much. OK, now that everyone's civil and nice, we can start.

We are working very hard here at Gavra Games to bring you a new update to Warriors: Rise to Glory!, and we’re happy to announce that it’s getting closer and closer. Today we want to reveal some of the new stuff included in next update. First and foremost: we are implementing gamepad controls! You will be able to play the whole game with your gamepad, so you will be able to entertain the crowds with your fighting skills while lying on the couch with a cold drink of your choice!

That’s not all, of course. We are also adding some new shields for you to buy, equip, and fight with in the arena: spiked shields, dark elf shields, Roman shields, Samurai shields, and peasant Shields. If you have ever wondered what the hell are Romans and Samurais doing in the Indiekingdom, may I remind you that the emperor Ayziz uses his magic to bring here the best warriors from different places and times?



Finally, a lot of skills will get a 3rd level you can invest in: basically, that means that you can get more powerful in more different ways. The full list of improved skills will be revealed soon. And obviously, there will also be a lot of minor fixes and changes – we will publish the full patch notes when the time comes.

That being said, I see you guys are itchy. Looks like you can take the gladiator out of the fight but not the fight out of the gladiator. Or, well, not without cutting him in half, and that can spoil anyone’s afternoon, can’t it? Please go outside if you want to fight – Danny, what did I just tell you about your knife? You’ll have to scrub that door, yeah, you heard right! The rest of you, get the hell out of here! Remember that if you want to exchange battle tips and tricks, give ideas and suggestions for the game, or just engage with other fighters, you are invited to join us on our Discord server. Good luck in the arena!
