addedAs promissed on our last devlog we worked on Ophis boss fight . It was pretty hard because the battle has many stages, we had to create several new sprites for the boss and an entire new environment. We won't reveal the boss to keep it as a surprise (sorry, guys). But, we can show you a glimpse of the elevator inside the HUGE Demonic Cult Tower. 🔥
addedFor the Adventurers Guild missions, we finished new variations of missions, that you need to search for specific items. Along with the revisions of the missions, we are adding a lot of variations now to keep the experience diverse and fresh each time. All of them are handcrafted , not procedurally generated (which often feels generic). The HUD for this system is almost finished, and we will probably show it to you next month!
changedWe started doing some items as well! We've finished the art and configurations for about 400 piece of equipment.
changedThe Relic system was started and finished this month. Those relics will grant powerful passives for your heroes, and some can change a lot their gameplay. Like artificats, this system will offer another kind of horizontal progression of your account, once unlocked, you can use it in any hero.
addedSome other small things we did in April: we finished a Parallax system to use in high places (example in the GIF below), added a tiger as both a new enemy and mount, included some cats as pets, and created other misc decorations. We also worked on several internal aspects to improve and optimize the game. 😉

This month, meet Reya, the Lightning Queen! This battlemage is the fastest hero in the game. Though she is squishy, her exceptional mobility lets skilled players dodge attacks with ease.⚡️

👉 We also invite you to watch all the other hero teasers that we have already revealed here.
