Hail you Vikings! Hail you Bosses!
It’s been a great couple of weeks since Bossgard left Early Access! Glad to see some new faces in our community, we hope you’re here to stay!
So! We’re back with another update, this time a good ol’ fashioned bug bashing routine plus several quality-of-life improvements!
Here’s what’s up:
- Added new camera angles for the 2v1, 3v1, 4v1 Boss Vs Vikings game lobby.
- Updated the localization for French, Spanish and German
- Modified how map voting works. Map voting is now based on a common map pool drawn from all the maps unlocked/owned by the players in the lobby. Previously the game only drew maps from the Host’s map pool.
- Improved reassignment after controller disconnect
- Bhaar-Boot no longer damages players behind him when rolling
- Vikings can now be rotated in the Main Menu.
- Tweaked Bot AI. AI characters now change targets as soon as their current target dies.
- Changed the order in which players join slots in Viking vs Viking modes
Fixes:
- Fixed fonts for Russian language
- Fixed some totems becoming invulnerable after being killed
- Fixed Bhaar-Boot sometimes remaining stuck on top of a minion
- Fixed menu scaling for server list menu
- Fixed bow strings getting glitchy in main menu
- Fixed Magnus and Krampus gold skins not being displayed properly
We’re out of Gold!
Alas, the time to make merry is behind us and our anniversary Gold Skins are now off the table. Congratulations to all who got the chance to redeem these anniversary swag items. If you didn’t get your chance, no worries - there will be plenty of other opportunities. We’re certainly not out of reasons to celebrate - Bossgard is coming to the Nintendo Switch and Sony PS4 in July, so hang on tight!
This is our main focus at the moment, finishing up the Switch and Playstation 4 builds so we can stay on track with our schedule. Our target is early July, we'll announce the exact date in the next couple of weeks.
That's it for now! See you in-game and stay tuned for more info, we'll make sure to keep you posted.
Bossgard awaits!
