Long list of stuff coming to Sword 'N' Board!

Hey everyone! Just wanted to post an update since it's been a little quiet lately. I've been working on some more "behind the scenes" / quality of life stuff for the game to help those of you with lower end PCs and keyboards that aren't QWERTY still enjoy the game. Key binding Key binding is something I honestly didn't think about in the beginning but it's something that I'm working hard right now to add. It also mean refactoring old code to make sure it will still work properly regardless of input. Steam Achievements It's something that I wanted to add much earlier but given the random bugs we were able to find more easily once the game was made available on Steam, I had to re-prioritize fixing those instead. The next update for the game will include several Steam achievements, including ones you obviously won't be to complete until the game is finished - along with ones that I'm sure many of you have already completed Trading cards Honestly I've never really delved much into the world of Steam Trading cards so when I released the game on Early Access it wasn't something I had thought about too much. However I know many of you that absolutely love them and love collecting them and so that will also be added here very soon, more than likely along with the Steam Achievement update at the same time! Frame rate issues While very minimal, I did notice some time ago a few areas in the game that were prone to frame rate issues, especially in large wooded areas that you could set on fire. Luckily I was able to track down the issue - item instantiation. It wasn't being handled efficiently at all and so it would cause issues when a large amount of items were being created all at once. The code has since been fixed and should get rid of those issues even on lower end machines. Controls Controls have always been hugely important to me. I feel controls are something most game developers - especially indies - neglect. Games like this with combat need to have tight controls and because of this I've changed them many times over. I'm also currently fixing the control screens for the game as they're not entirely accurate given the amount of changes that have been made to the controls in such a small time. While I think the controls are in a great place when played with an Xbox controller, I feel they still need a lot of work when it comes to the mouse and keyboard controls. While some of this will be able to be fixed with adding key binding, I want the default keyboard controls to also play better. New item combos I'm adding an additional 10 item combinations to the game! It was decided by me that I wanted to make it so people WANTED to use their cardboard sword regularly. So now, your swords abilities will be able to be augmented depending on what item you have equipped with it. The goal for the item combos have always been to make them interesting and useful, that none of them ever become useless because something else is similar or better or too situational. The first you'll find in the game is the Sword + bomb combo for the bomb jump which can be found in the first dungeon. This is also why the 2nd dungeon went
