  • Players can now return to the main menu by clicking Quit Game. This was a lot trickier to implement than I thought, but it's working now. You can go back and forward between games without having to reload the main game every time.

  • New background image added to random backgrounds

  • Fixed a bunch of broken tweens and typos in the games

Swords and Sandals II

  • Fixed a bug where enemy trivia didn't show up properly

  • Resized orange parchment on battle UI to fit screens better

  • Fixed a bug where ammo was not showing for characters in battle

Swords and Sandals Crusader

  • Fixed a bug in the Leadership spell that would sometimes freeze the game

  • Fixed some blurring issues on sprites in battle

  • Fixed a bug where the game would sometimes pause between arrow fire exchanges

Swords and Sandals IV

  • Potential fix for the Arena tiles showing 'Closed for repairs'. (You may find this causes some glitches or undefined character names, if so, let me know!)

I will keep patching this game over the months and years, it just might take me a while as many of the bugs are from code written in 2006 that *used* to work but just has totally broken in newer versions of Windows etc, things like Tween engines that once worked now sometimes fail, collision detection is done differently etc! It's a creaky machine :) Once again, thankyou all so much for supporting the S&S series and I look forward to bringing you more adventures in Spartacus and Swords and Sandals VI in 2019 / 2020 and beyond! Cheers, Oliver Joyce Whiskeybarrel Studios
