New Playable Faction, New Camp, Better Gameplay, September 16

Hey guys,

The demo is getting a major update on September 16, and it's a big one.

You can finally play the Panthers. A new chapter unlocks the other half of the Rebellion, so you can see for yourself how the Panthers' aggressive, mobility-first playstyle contrasts with Kenmare's approach. Same war, a very different way of fighting it.

A new hub joins the demo: the Camp. Unlocked between the third and the newly added fourth chapter, the Camp gives you two new faces to rely on between missions: the Merchant, for supplies and items, and the Blacksmith, for weapon upgrades. Consider it a first taste of the progression loop you'll be leaning on throughout the full game.

We've also put a lot of care into making the demo feel better to actually play, based directly on your feedback so far:

  • Damage type is now displayed on hit

  • New character ability animations

  • A beautified HUD, including the Turn Order, Rewind, and Legend menus

  • A more readable world map

  • Improved UX during the combat phase

  • Auto-deployment of units

  • New music and sound design

If you are new here, play the demo right now and return on September 16th to see how much work and dedication we have put into the update.

If you have already fought alongside the Rebellion of Westalia, we want to let you know that your feedback has been incredibly valuable, and we hope you’ll enjoy this new version of Calame.
