Re.Poly News

Hey there girls and guys.

In this update I implemented the possibility to hold 2 weapons. Fir this you have to select the first weapon in your hotbar and then the second with the numbers related to the items.

The Bow and the Crossbow can be loaded with new ammo types. For this you have 2 ways to do so. Drag and drop the ammo onto the weapon or hold the weapon in hands and hold R to open the quick reload menu where you can change the ammo type.

Same will work for the staff now. The magic slot is no longer usable so you have to craft new ammo for the staff because the Fire magic is renamed to small fireball and is handled as ammo like arrows.

I hope you enjoy the update and let me know if you notice any bugs :)

Have a nice weekend.

Hey there girls and guys. In today's update you will be able to find NPC's and rescue them. They can do tasks for you like gather resources etc.
But you have to prepare some stuff for this. At this moment it is enough to place a Village center and give it a name. In the next update I will add a lot more stuff so you have to offer them food and a bed etc.

But for now let us test that out and have some fun with them :)

And to know how to use the system here is a video:

I will update the game weekly now to give you more updates and to react faster than monthly because I think this will give us more to discuss with eachother.

Feel free to post your ideas and suggestions into the discord server and I hope we see us there.

Have a nice weekend and thank you all for your great support :)

Hey there girls and guys.
This month is poorly a sad month in my opinion. Because I was ill more than two weeks I had no energy to work on the game. So the planned stuff has to wait another month to come. I am really sorry about that. But I wanted to implement the most wished stuff: Building with the building menu again and get rid of those nasty info bubbles. Instead you have a little UI info that can be expanded for more details.

In the next month I will add all the stuff I could not add in that time to work out the plan I have posted in the trello board.

As usual: If you find bugs, feel free to post them on the discord server. Have a nice day and again: Sorry. I always try to do my best.
