You Can Fly Anywhere as a Raven - VELKYN Devlog

A new devlog about the raven form in Velkyn is now available! Today, I’m introducing a very special feature: In the open world of Velkyn, you will always be able to transform into an astral raven.

The Raven Form

I’ve already fully implemented the raven into the game, and the transformation is working. If you're in the open world of Velkyn and have activated at least one astral crystal, you can transform into a raven and explore the world from above!

The implementation of the raven took a lot of time and required extensive testing. When ascending, you lose speed, and when diving, you accelerate.

The raven has an ability called "Flap" - with this, the raven takes a very strong wing flap and gains an instant speed boost.

Once you unlock the raven form, you automatically unlock a new resource system called "Astral Power". Astral power is consumed during ascent and when using abilities. You can regenerate astral power by staying near astral crystals, collecting magical orbs while flying, or reaching high speed during a dive.

Today’s Devlog

For everything else, please check out the new devlog on my YouTube channel. Besides many new game impressions, I’ve tried to make the video as entertaining as possible!

Enjoy the video!
