Dev Diary #2: What Future Brings

Frozen Flame · published 29 Mar 2023, 18:02 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

We continue on our way towards the bigger update, having received plentiful positive feedback and suggestions based on the Closed Alpha Test. And now we’d like to share more information about the occurred changes.

First, we decided to relocate the entirety of the starting location into the water and turn it into a sort of a continent. And it seems like sooner or later we’ll have to implement fully fleshed-out fishing into the game.. Floating islands will keep on spawning at different locations for each server, while the ability to fly will now be reserved for high-level players.

We’ve also received a lot of requests to make the Survival mode compatible with coop experience. So, we’ve adjusted the mode’s focus from Orders and PvP to survival and exploration. You’ll be able to protect your buildings with a special module - a sentinel. For those who either don’t want to participate in PvP, or want the mode to be more punishing, we’ll implement new server settings.

To make the survival experience more complete, we’ve added fatigue, which can be restored by consuming certain types of food or by sleeping in a bed. Beds can now also be used as checkpoints - you can return to them via teleportation stone or after respawning.
The stamina bar is now located in the top-left corner of the game to make the UI more coherent.

Another goal we have with the upcoming update is to improve combat by making it more fast-paced and diverse. Most weapons received updates to their attack animations, while some weapons received new ones altogether. Heavy attacks are no longer locked behind leveling and only require stamina to use, while battle energy will now directly impact combat abilities and allow you to use them more frequently.

We also want to add more fun activities so that the players can spend some quality time with their friends. Musical instruments, vendor stalls and even catapults! What will be included in the final version of the update depends solely on the Alpha Test results.

So, you can expect plenty of changes and improvements! We will soon announce the date of the Open Beta Test, where everyone will be able to give the new additions a try.
