addedIn order to focus our energy on advancing what everyone cares about the most—the mobile port of "Alchemage"—we will temporarily pause the expansion of new content for now. Today's dev log is here to give you the full scoop.
changed📸 Talk is cheap, here are some in-game screenshots!To prove we are actually working (and not just creating an empty folder), we deliberately "stole" a few fresh screenshots straight from our dev machines to satisfy your cravings (Note: Still in development, UI and graphics do not represent the final launch quality):
changed🛠️ Mobile Port Progress Reveal: Where are we now?Mobile UI redesign in progress: To ensure you have a silky-smooth control experience when tapping away on your screens, our art leads have fully stepped in and are currently re-evaluating and redesigning the UI layout, action wheels, and hotbars to perfectly fit mobile screens.
changed🛠️ Mobile Port Progress Reveal: Where are we now?Tackling the multiplayer core: Multiplayer is the soul of our game! Right now, our coders have started evaluating the technical integration of the multiplayer module. It's worth mentioning that, unlike the PC version, the mobile version will use dedicated server multiplayer ! This will be much more stable compared to the original P2P mode, so you'll never have to worry about lagging or disconnecting while building a home with your best buddies.
added📢 Last but not least: The channel for urging updates and getting early access!In order to communicate with you all at zero distance (and take our beatings), we highly recommend joining the official "Alchemage" player communication Discord server: [ discord ] ! (Note: You can replace the number here with your actual Discord invite link) If you have any opinions, suggestions, or complaints about the mobile version, you can fire away at us directly in the server. More importantly, future exclusive game welfare drops and early access qualifications for mobile test versions will be distributed in Discord first!
changed📢 Last but not least: The channel for urging updates and getting early access!Thank you all for staying with us for six years; the flame of alchemy has never gone out. In the days to come, we will frequently "resurrect" to report our progress. Come stake out our Discord for first-hand news, and we'll see you in the test servers soon! ✨

🛠️ Mobile Port Progress Reveal: Where are we now?
Long story short, here is a report on a few key milestones:
Single-player core porting is basically conquered: Aside from some specific content, the core survival, sandbox building, and everyone's favorite "one wand dismantles everything" underlying logic of the single-player version are already running successfully on mobile devices!
Mobile UI redesign in progress: To ensure you have a silky-smooth control experience when tapping away on your screens, our art leads have fully stepped in and are currently re-evaluating and redesigning the UI layout, action wheels, and hotbars to perfectly fit mobile screens.
Tackling the multiplayer core: Multiplayer is the soul of our game! Right now, our coders have started evaluating the technical integration of the multiplayer module.

This will be much more stable compared to the original P2P mode, so you'll never have to worry about lagging or disconnecting while building a home with your best buddies.
📅 Key Takeaway: When can you play it?
If all goes smoothly, we will launch our first limited-time mobile test since the reboot in June! At that time, we hope to invite you all to help verify the mobile adaptation and fluidity. The days of calling up your buddies anytime, anywhere to build homes (and troll each other) are coming soon.
