Hello Stormforged!
April has been a big month for us here at Roboto Games, and we're incredibly excited to pull back the curtain on everything we've been building. The world of Stormforge is growing fast, and today we're walking you through some of the most exciting additions yet, with new skills for the warrior and new places to explore all over the world of Sorana!
Let's get into it!
Points of Interest
Sorana already had a great amount of ruins, forests and dungeons to explore, but now it has more secrets than ever. We've added a new collection of Points of Interest scattered across the world, including unique landmarks, old homes, and scenic vistas that reward exploration and help tell the story of Stormforge while you discover each location.
Whether it's the crumbling remains of a precursor civilization, a resource-rich outpost tucked behind the treeline, or an encampment of enemies, these locations are designed to make every journey across the map feel exciting and enjoyable.
Skill Trees and Scions
During our last playtest, players got a chance to upgrade their characters with our skill tree. Each skill tree is themed around a Scion, spirits of long-lost heroes who are helping you in your journey to clear the world of magical storms. Once you unlock a skill tree, you can mix and match skills from all the Scions and make a truly custom character build to match your preferences. You can re-skill (for a modest cost) so you aren't locked into past choices. Steam post image
The Warrior
This update, we're going to touch on some of the Warrior's skills and abilities! The warrior brings melee combat to the table and gives you access to a variety of alternate attacks. Furthermore they're the best class to have when it comes to managing your stamina in combat, and they even have plenty of defensive options too! If you enjoy getting right into the thick of battle and fighting your opponents head on, the Warrior is absolutely the class for you!
All Scions bring entirely new skill trees and playstyle possibilities to the table, and you'll see more in the near future with the Ranger and Mage. We can't wait to see your new builds!
Latest Playtest
We have to take a moment to say, thank you!
The response to the playtest at the end of March was beyond what we hoped for. Your energy, your feedback, your bug reports, your kind words in Discord, all of it directly shapes what Stormforge becomes. We read everything, we discuss and iterate in our Slack, we build from all of it. This game exists because of the community rallying around it, and that means the world to us.
The March playtest helped us learn a ton, and many of the improvements you're seeing this month were directly influenced by what you told us. If you have any thoughts or ideas feel free to let us know and we’ll be sure to consider it.
What's Next?
Another playtest is on the horizon, and we're working hard to make sure it's the best one yet. Want in? Simply sign up on our website Link Here!
We'll have more details soon, keep an eye on our Discord for announcements first, as that's always where we share news earliest. The more active you are in the community, the better your chances of getting in.
Until next time,
— The Roboto Games Team ⚡
