Since we started posting updates (almost a year ago now, wow!) we have received a lot of suggestions and requests, which is awesome! Today we’re gonna address two of the things that has been brought up quite a bit.
First, we’ve often gotten requests to include a long-ranged weapon: most often a bow. And so, this week we have finally started experimenting with bringing the bow back into the game!
For various reasons we cut it out for a long while, but now we’re almost ready to have it reintroduced. This time cooler and better than ever! However, it has limited ammo and won’t include any skills of its own: instead you can upgrade it once in a while throughout the game. Currently you may equip and use the bow in the same way you do skills, through quickslots!
Fred has also been working on improving the graphics and the overall feel of wielding it, and we’re quite impressed. Take a look at this:
The second thing we’d like to address is casting spells or skills.
As some of you may know, we have a cast system in which you hold down a button until you’re ready to release the spell; the longer you charge, the better attack. However, you haven’t been able to move while casting, which is something that has caused a bit of complaints both from beta testers and people watching our videos.
After some consideration we did realize that it is a little limiting: it often forces you to wait for enemies to get in position, or you have to instantly burn off a low level spell to get away from damage..
So to solve this: you can now walk around while casting! Yay!
We hope you guys like these improvements as per your requests, and as a bonus, have these cards that Vilya has been working on! Until next time~
Poor boar might of found his long lost friend after all. >:
And yes, the blessings of Free Cast! (everyone is now a sage! Yay!)
