What changed

0 fixes2 additions1 change0 removals
  • UI and audio
  • Maps
addedAll user interface is 100% controller accessible. Before, anything past the main menu needed the mouse to close the interface. We've now added an "press A" option to close menus.
addedWe've added the start to the single player campaign based on the battles of Welsh independence during the 13th century. Our new map is absolutely massive (like open world level of massive). We're also adding several obstacles to make gameplay more interesting between combat sequences. We're super proud of our new level and think players will find it fun and impressive.
changedOur original "test" map (the one you've been playing on all this time) is now our tutorial map with an in-game guide. This tutorial is still a work in progress, so expect updates to the tutorial (although most of you know how to play the game enough already you won't need it, lol).

Limited Early Access

Many of you have noticed the full release of the game has been pushed back to April 30th. We will still have a limited Early Access on Christmas day as promised, but we're only offering this Early Access to members of our Discord community. It's free to join and you'll get access to the game before anyone else! Go to https://www.skjold.net/discord

Gamepad

The game now supports 100% gamepad utilization. The only thing you'll need a keyboard/mouse for is to log into your computer!

The joystick now supports input sensitivity. Before, when you would press forward/back you would go at full speed regardless of how much you were pressing the joystick. Now, if you want to creep up on enemies and sneak out of some bushes, you can! This offers a tactical advantage the keyboard/mouse cannot.
