changedGreetings STEAM players of Ortus Regni :)We are happy to announce the release of the 1.3 version of our free game app. The key feature in 1.3 was taken from the tabletop world of Ortus Regni gameplay. Specifically a system where you play a series of linked Ortus Regni games, with the winner required to play the following game with the same deck. This creates an interesting meta deck design situation. With the physical card game this is often played as a “Best of X games” format. Here we simplified that with a 3 win counter, to win the overall match-up. Thus you can play a mini-campaign style series now in Challenge Friend mode. ( Note that you can play a Series Game also against AIs, if you want, by simply not inviting any Friends in the Challenge Friends lobby. )
addedNew features added in 1.3:Series Games in Challenge Friends options now! A mini campaign, win 3 games to win the series, and winners have to play the following game with the same deck. • Server side stability refactor, so that Challenge Friends games should now be stable with asynchronous play, and timed games gained stability as well. • New songs in the game and menu lobbies, plus a full sounds effects refactor with unique ambient room sounds for the medieval game rooms. • Your Find A Match leaderboard history is now saved in your account profile :) Keep in mind the meta of a Series Games match-up when making your decks, as other Earls can build new decks with foreknowledge of what you are bringing to the table. We have also revised the sounds effects in the game and its music; we’ve added more medieval songs (technically from the Elizabethan period). And we also rebuilt the game server to eliminated some issues that were popping up in Challenge Friends games, particularly one that could freeze asynchronous Challenge Friends games. This server rebuild also tackled some stability issues with timed games and forfeits. We are very happy to have had a chance to revisit the server code. Thanks for trying out our medieval world (!)
