Game update1 Jan 2024An update on the status of Runic SurvivorHi, As many of you probably know, Runic Survivor has been in early access since it's release about a year ago. When I released the game I had plans to expand on it, but shortly after it's release, I suddenly found myself in a new career (Runic was not enough to pay the bills) and a few other life-events happened at the same time, and Runic took a back seat. As time passed, the pressure of not h…Game update2 Nov 2022Update 0.16Hello again! This update is yet another small bug-fixing and optimization update. I had originally intended for this update to include new runes, as well as an endless mode, but those inclusions have been pushed to next update. • Summons should now be more consistent in their target selection. • Optimized the summon spell. • Remnants of the Destroyer will no longer kill bosses. • Limited how ma…

15 Oct 2022, 15:20 UTC	Game update	Update 0.14 - Varius bugfixes, new spell colour & accessibility! Not in my wildest dreams had I imagined that this many people would be playing Runic after just two weeks. The game has gotten to the point where most of the bugs people are experiencing are very situational and often impossible for me to reproduce. I'll do my best to address these issues, but fixes might not actually work, and being a single developer with another full time job, it might occas…	9728674

6 Oct 2022, 22:20 UTC	Game update	Update 0.13 - Toggle Screen Effects & More Optimization Thank all of you so much for your constant feedback! It is incredibly useful as I constantly battle bugs and poorly optimized code.

4 Oct 2022, 20:31 UTC	Game update	Update 0.12 - Optimization and Video Settings I've looked through the discussions and reviews and fixed some of the more pressing issues.
