Dev-Diary #5 – Lights, Shadows and New Atmospheres

Clockwillows™ Voy Quest · published 34 days ago

All events Players around this date Read on Steam

For the next update, version 1.3.0, the game will be transformed with a new graphical look: in addition to the previous light and retro-style shadows that will still be used on the lower settings while on the higher graphical settings are introduced the new dynamic shadows with increasing detail, a higher hardware level than that currently in use in the technical specifications of the game at launch is recommended.

An issue where anti-aliasing wasn't enabled based on the graphics settings has been fixed. This update is expected to be released in the coming weeks, on that day I will also list the fixes and other improvements made.

Below is a progress image, version 1.2.3 on the left and the new version in development on the right.

If you have any questions about the game, please leave a comment below.

Cheers, Nicola Cerrato – Epicalea.
