fixedThere have been a few days since the update in test servers and here comes the update announcement. In this version, a new content is added: The Mirror of Heart. It allows players to improve the power of characters to fight the monsters in this dream world. We re-designed the user interface, simplified the operations for better visual effect, and adjusted the definition and effects of the basic character attributes. Meantime, we re-organized the game process, structures of production and the effects of foods, to decrease the difficulties in daily activities. The quest sequence is adjusted. Besides, we also fixed some bugs and problems noticed in previous version.
addedNew Content: Seed of HeartSeed of Heart A new content is added: The Seed of Heart. When entering the game, players will get a default Seed of Heart: Seed of Lake. It can be seen on the right side of character’s health bar or in the Seed of Heart section in main menu. The Seed of Heart will slowly grow when equipped. Check your Seed periodically and it would eventually grow into the Flower of Lake. Then players are able to release the true power within it. New players can have the memory of the Mirror of Heart by finishing quests. For previous players that already spent some time playing the game, a gift code: 418A5470 is offered to exchange for the memory. 418A5470 Craft a Mirror of Heart, then you will be able to examine your Seed of Heart in it. Put your Flower of Lake into the Mirror of Heart, update it with your Imagination and turn it into the Heart of Lake. The Heart of Lake can slowly heal you by consuming water. By updating the Heart of Lake, the water consumption can be reduced. The healing speed can also be improved when the Heart of Lake is upgraded to a certain level. There are also other different Seed of Heat that brings you unique powers and they will be unlocked in following updates.
addedNew Content: Seed of HeartWills Besides the original power of the Seed of Heart, a Will slot will be unlocked when the Seed of Heart is first upgraded to level 5. From now, you are able to further strengthen your power with Wills. There is a small probability for players to get the Fragments of Will by defeating the treasure chests underground. The Fragment of Will can be used to upgrade the Seed of Heart, or be merged into a complete Will in the Furnace of Will. By crafting the Furnace of Will, you can get a random Will by merging 5 Fragments of Will together. The Will can be inlayed in your Seed of Heat to provide bonus attributes to your characters. The Will slots in the Seed of Heart could be different: General slots can be inlayed with any types of Wills, while slots with special icons only accept corresponding Wills.
changedMajor Content Adjustment: The ExplorerBasic Character Attributes: We significantly adjusted the hunger and thirst attributes. Now they are no longer your burden in your adventure. When the temperature is comfortable, players will not suffer from any negative effects from being hungry or thirsty. Hunger Attribute: The Hunger Attribute is changed into character’s cold resistance. Most food will no longer provide satiety and only specific cooked food can recover your cold resistance. So, in areas where temperature is fine, players no longer have to eat food for survival. Only keep in mind to prepare these food and warm clothes when setting off for cold areas. Thirst: In most areas, being thirsty will not bring you any negative effects. Still, water can help you endure heat. Also, most Seeds of Heart’s ability consumes water, so preserving water is still beneficial. We adjusted the interfaces displaying basic attributes and only health and thirst is displayed now. Hunger is changed into Cold Resistance, which is invisible most of the time. It will only become visible in cold environments. Sanity is also invisible now and it only shows up when there’s sanity loss.
