Patch 0.1.3

Features & Balance

• Added Offline Mode

  Witchspire is now fully playable without an active internet connection. With this update you'll be able to start the game without a connection - or keep playing in the event that you lose your connection to our online services. Your save files should transfer between offline and online modes seamlessly and should not be lost in the event of sudden connectivity issues.

• Added Build Modes

  Prior to this update, placing and removing building pieces both occured in the same 'mode', with a Left Click placing an object and Right Click removing it. Now, pressing RIght Click will swap you in to a dedicated 'Removal Mode', which also highlights objects in red when hovered. This makes removing objects far easier, and reduces the risk of accidental removals.

• Nearby Players are now visible on Compass

  Struggling to find your co-op partners? This should help!

• Added a 'Delete World' button: best enjoyed responsibly

• Improved VFX of Celestial Familiars

• Incense Rebalancing

  We've received a lot of feedback about the timing of Incense, and while we feel it's important that Incense feels meaningful, we're making some changes to the duration with this update. This should result in Incense feeling more reliable in fights, and make it less sensitive to perfect timing. We've received many suggestions on how to further improve this system, and will continue to iterate on Incense going forward.

  Duration increased from 20 seconds -> 30 seconds

  Lotus Brew

  While not technically a food, Lotus Brew also received some love in this update!

• Heat Resistance increased from 90 -> 95%.
  Heat in the Shuddersands deals 10% damage of your Maximum Health per second. With a Lotus brew, this was previously reduced to 1%. Meaning you could technically survive about 100 seconds in heat. With this change, you can now survive about 200 seconds of heat before succumbing to the sands. Use it wisely.

In addition to these gorgeous bases (I want to live in all of them pls!), this week we'd also like to spotlight a Mod! Witchspire doesn't currently have official modding support, but that hasn't stopped players like shadowking97 from creating mods such as 'AutoRun', found here:

https://www.nexusmods.com/witchspire/mods/38

Or iMAboud's creation 'Store Similar Items' which makes managing those chests lots easier:

We're thrilled to see the community getting involved in improving the game or creating different ways to play. These are features we intend to officially support in future updates, but there's a long list of things to do, so we'll need a little time :)

Until next time, thank you all for your continued support <3
