Introducing new Hero - Ilyana

  • The new hero is an Archer, specialised in ranged attacks. She has half the HP of the barbarian, but can keep the distance to enemies.

  • The hero has 6 new weapons she can use: bow, crossbow, longbow, shield bow, throwing axes, throwing knives, all with different stats and purposes.

  • Also 3 new starting relics

New Skill - Summon Valkyries:

Created new skill: "Summon Valkyries". Very similar to Summon Barbarian, but now it's valkyries, yes. Valkyries have higher HP and armor but lower attack damage.

Summons Rework:

  • Now Barbarians throw axes from a distance instead of melee attacking. Their HP has been reduced.

  • Now skill upgrades for "Summon Valkyries" and "Summon Barbarian" only apply to summons from the corresponding skill. And any relic upgrade will apply to ALL summons unless specified.

  • Introduced many other summon mechanics after events (eg when reach 10 Poison Stacks, when killing with a crit,...)

Others:

  • More than 100 relics or skill upgrades introduced or reworked.

  • Heal towers for now are free, making them more viable. In the future they might also grant boosts.

  • Improved movement feel when moving and targeting with mouse click.

Next Updates:

  • Rework Boss map 3

  • Quality of Life

  • Add more options to personalise in Settings

  • Reduce enemy cluttering and improve visuals

  • New Hero Skills

  • Lore, dialogues

  • Quests, Achievements, Unlockable content

  • And more.
