- Dank Ages Lore - 10 March 2022
Greeting Knights! Long time no hear. We've been dug deep into the back-end part of the game and most of it isn't particularly interesting for the majority of people as long as they value their sanity. Those works are still in progress and since we are quite a small indie team they might still take a while. As the Master once said, "Patience is a virtue of the true Knight. You never know if the heavens haven't planned sudden diarrhoea for your opponent" and we took his words to heart. We are happy to start sharing an introduction/prequel to the Knights & Outlaws story as... it appeared we simply can't hold our horses and going full Mel Brooks and Monthy Python on it... sorry... it will be either gloriously good or hilariously bad, maybe both. From now on Devlogs will appear as some sort of fable. Please tell us how terrible it is as Syr Christopher collects hate comments to sew tapestrie…

- Name change, Teaser and Store Page update - 29 June 2021
Greetings Knights! We are happy to announce few things. The name of the game has changed. It's Knights & Outlaws now. During the production, we have decided to move towards the adventure and story-driven style of the game. Simulator mechanics will still be present, but we feel like Knight Simulator's name doesn't fit anymore. We have a new logo and graphics as well: We made a game teaser ːsteamhappyː One can find it on our Steam page and our publisher Youtube: Our Steam store page has been updated with new screenshots, descriptions and gifs. It is now closer to what we want to achieve with our game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1122230/Knights__Outlaws/ More content in future Devlogs. Feedback is welcome, so leave a comment or join us on Discord Server! Yours - Hydragon Knight Simulator Team
- Devlog #11 Inventory, Items and Item Actions. - 21 June 2021
Greetings Knights! Recently we were busy with back-end stuff inside Unity Engine. We are almost done with our own Inventory plugin that is customized for Knight Simulator needs and very flexible. Today let's have some insight into the Unity Engine itself. Item Editor allows us to add new items. Allows us to set the item display name, description and 3D model that corresponds to this item. Each item can have a Buff or Debuff assigned to it. Buff Editor is a tool that we created to manage the balance of items. From this view, we can easily adjust overpowered or underpowered stuff. We can set here, for example, that the Steel Sword has more attack and a negative agility value than the Iron Sword. Inventory Editor is only used to display the list of items that the player has in their inventory. We did not develop this window that we do not need it that much but it will be very handy for fut…

- Devlog #10 - Combat System part 1. - 23 April 2021
Greetings Knights! We are currently working on our Combat System, World Design and a lot of back-end stuff development, sometimes called invisible upgrades. Today we will talk about Combat System in our game. It went through several iterations and changes, but we believe we are on the right path now. Currently, we implemented the basics of the system. The game appropriately reacts to commands, and when it hit enemies, they are receiving damage and dying. It works for enemies connecting their weapons to our Knight as well. We have an intriguing idea for our Combat System to stand out from other, similar games, but we need to connect several mechanics first, and that is a work in progress for now. Sadly there are only a few ways to make FPP melee combat in a game, so at first, ours might reassemble one from the Mount and Blade, or Kingdom Come: Deliverance series, but it's because we didn…
- Devlog #9 - Graphical overhaul and other works in process - 12 February 2021
Greetings Knights! We are currently working on a graphical overhaul of our game, AI and collisions. We want to share some of the progress with You. Recently we put a lot of effort into in-game details, lightening and the overall world feeling you can check screenshots below to look at progress, it is still quite an early stage of the overhaul, but it will be only better :) Good news! AI of townspeople is now quite decent, previously we had quite a big issue with NPC blocking on buildings, but we fixed it now, and they move in logical pathways. We will share its effect as soon as we get rid of the clones' army of test NPCs and improve their animations. We have implemented body collision with NPCs to drop stuff and react to being pushed by player. It's working but let's say it needs some tuning... It looks hilarious though.

- Devlog #8 - Lockpicking - 30 November 2020
Greetings Knights! Usually when we think - Knight - we have a vision of a brave warrior charging through the battlefield. However, knights had quite a wide spectrum of duties like governing and protecting lands but also... being an interesting person to carry around during feasts! Or simpler - diplomats and spies... Overall a good Knight is a person useful to his Senior. And to be useful one poor knight may need a particular set of skills like... LOCKPICKING Lockpicking may come very handy in some situations but overall we consider it a minor mechanic so we want to keep it simple and fun. We are working to improve its visuals (like adding a door background behind the lock), improve how hints are looking, and balance the difficulty. Be careful sniffing around! Getting caught will negatively affect both Your reputation and pouch! Every feedback is welcome so we would like to invite You to…
