Hello Adventurers!
A big update has just landed. Bookmark Hero 0.4.0 brings ranged and magic combat, fishing, food, and a more complete tutorial.
Updates and Changes
- Ranged combat is in. Craft bows and arrows, and wear a full set of leather armour.
- Magic combat is in. Craft staves and wear a full set of cloth armour.
- Spin fibre into thread on the spinning wheel, weave it on the loom, and tailor cloth armour with a needle and thread.
- Tan hides into leather and work that into leather armour.
- Fletch arrow shafts and bow staves, then string the bows with thread.
- Shape staves at the artificer's bench and set them with gems.
- Fishing is in. Bring a rod, catch something, and use the fishing station to make fillets and bait.
- The trinket slot is now a food slot, and auto-eat can keep your hero eating from it.
- Death now opens a You Died screen. Your tasks stay put until you choose Revive or Clear Tasks.
- Combat styles (Accuracy, Defensive, and Critical) are saved with your hero. Combat experience is shared across the skills involved, so Accuracy levels more slowly.
- There are now enclosed environments and buildings.
- The Map Book now has Region and Local pages. Region lists the places you've found. Local is for travelling inside the region you're in.
- The Log Book now keeps the people you've met, with a portrait, where you last saw them, and how their quests stand.
- The new dialogue system allows for conversations to branch and offer quests.
- The tutorial has been updated for the new skills.
- In the demo, skills stop gaining experience at the demo cap. Opening a full-game save in the demo keeps the experience it already has.
Bugs and Fixes
- Fixed a bug where crafting would stop after 9 items.
- Fixed hair showing through leather cowls.
- Heaps of other bug fixes. Too many to list.
