lol yea that's something we've been talking about as well. It's definitely a possibility.

Hey guys, a peak at another feature you'll get in the next alpha update if you pre-purchased the game:

German keyboard users, rejoice!

I haven't read all 8 pages, but how does it compare to Hack, Slash, Loot? I'm only asking, because it looks similar and I know how that one plays. When I think about it, it also perhaps can be compared to the Sword of Fargoal remakes on iOS.

Anyway, the problems with those two titles are that they both become extremely repetetive in just a short amount of time, because of the simple controls and simple graphics.

Is this game doing anything to alleviate that?

[Indecom]

Thank you for your concerns. One of the big issues we have at the moment is repetition. We will be working to reduce that as much as possible. One of the ways i'll be doing that is by reprogramming how spell casting works, as well as adding an ever growing massive list of weapons, armor, spells, and enemies, as well as making each enemy act differently, and attack differently. There will be several different attack damage types, that all have differing visual effects on screen as well as different sound effects. Also in the works is a robust npc and world generation system that will create a near endless supply of quests and npc's to communicate with. I intend on adding npc's to join the player's party, but unfortunately that wont come until considerably later on. I thank you for the concerns, and if you or anyone else has any suggestions i'm beyond open to them

Hey guys, sorry for the long lack of posts, had to take care of my girlfriend for the past week. It happens each month, so there will be hiccups now and again.

back on topic, defined a chipset layout that should make dungeons prettier, and towns/wilderness more vast and varying

I don't think I've posted in this thread yet but I just wanted to say that you've got awesome art in for UI. Great stuff!

[Indecom]

Thanks for the kind words fellas! Work has been a little slower this week, due to a bunch of unforeseen events, however i plan on designating a few hours a day to work on the game consistently to push out alphas a little faster than we have been.

[Indecom]

Hey guys if all goes well enough tonight you can expect us to upload another alpha tomorrow. I'm currently debugging some issues i'm having at the moment in regards to entering a dungeon from the wilderness. If that can be fixed then you can expect the alpha update very soon

[Ouren]

Yes.
Alpha video as well, if things go according to plan.
 

[Indecom]

Hey guys, after several hours worth of retarded debugging, the next alpha update is finally in submission. Keep in mind there are some bugs regarding placement of items in the dungeon, that will be addressed in the next release

Tons of work went into creating art assets this past week, aside from getting ready to, then attending a family wedding.
