Let’s get started!

Family Reunion!

Let us introduce a new NPC—Esha the elf!

Dark forces have separated Esha from her father, and she’s begging for your help… You can refuse, of course, but beware—more strength might be hidden in this delicate-looking girl than it seems!

Will you help her? Or will you dare to face Esha’s wrath?

Where Are Your Manners?

We’ve already made new skins and skills for Persival. Now it’s time to add some real flair. Behold the Elder’s Armor! Now Persival can not only swing his sword but also quote Shakespeare and sit with impeccable posture.

Demonic Music Box and Cursed Doll

There’s some new loot in the mix! Here are a couple of new items:

  • Music Box: A key piece of the revamped Bored Demon event. Are you ready to hear its tune?

  • Doll: Who could have left this creepy toy in the dungeons? And who do you think it belongs to?

We won’t spoil anything yet, but remember: this new artifact’s owner can count on unique bonuses… if they’re brave enough to accept the gift.

How About Some Chit-Chat?

Hey there, friends! This is Andrew aka Innrey, the founder of RedBoon.

This week, we’ve been busy preparing our next video diary. We’ll share our roadmap (it’s pretty and ambitious) and break everything down for you. We’re eager to discuss the latest changes with you and hear your thoughts because we wouldn’t be here without you.

And now for some spoilers! We’re hard at work on enemy and ally specializations. You read it right—they’ll now have distinct roles, just like in an awesome RPG: tanks, supports, and other strategically important teammates. Honestly, it’s a bit scary to tinker with such core mechanics, but the thrill of it outweighs the fear! We won’t rest until the game is perfectly balanced.

And one more thing: we’re completely reworking the boss mechanics. Engaging in a boss battle head-on? Forget about it! Now, you’ll need to find a certain “key” in each map—this could be a tactic, a resource, or even an object to help you take the boss down. Battles will be much more exciting, so get ready for a real challenge.

If you have questions about development, storylines, tactics, or just want to know how we’re surviving here, feel free to write us! I’ll answer all your questions, and the best ones will be featured in the video.

Thank you for your support, patience, and your love for our game! We’re giving it our all to bring you updates that will make you happy and make the game even better.

See you in the comments and the next video diary!
