• Announcing Primarch! - 19 February 2023

  Hey all. I’m excited to announce that the store page and cinematic trailer for Primarch are now available: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1668970 Primarch is a roguelike auto-battler centered on a single hero. Long before the events of Astronarch, your people were exiled to a foreign planet and found themselves challenged by a fallen God. One of the heroes must prove themselves to be strong enough to rule, and claim the title of 'Primarch'.

• Now Available in 6 Languages! (v.1.6.4) - 9 December 2021

  Hey all, This update is adding 4 additional languages to the game: Russian Spanish Portuguese German Other changes: The battle log has seen a minor visual change - there are now icons for swapping between the types of battle data. Added the secret hotkey combination "CTRL+H" to hide hero auras. Hero auras will return the next time the game is launched. Fixed some minor occurrences of English displaying when English isn't the selected language. Fixed a bug where the upgrade hammer was interactable inside menus. With Simplified Chinese being added a month ago, there are now 6 total languages! The game has come a long way since it's original release, all thanks to feedback and suggestions from the community. There have been tons of new items, events, heroes, and countless features added. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the journey thus far, and I am glad we can now welcome a whol…

• Bug Fixes (v.1.6.3) - 5 November 2021

  General The Juggernaut now stuns for longer when their Active Ability is upgraded. The tavern achievements no longer require a Steam connection. Bug Fixes Fixed a visual glitch with the stat overlay option. Fixed multiple issues when the settings file becomes unreadable. Join us on the official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

• Simplified Chinese & Bug Fixes (v.1.6.2) - 26 October 2021

  Hey all, The highly requested Astronarch translation is now rolling out. Simplified Chinese is just the first of many languages coming to the game before the end of the year. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you think something isn't displaying correctly in-game; a lot had to change behind the scenes since translations weren't originally planned. ~ Dale New Features Simplified Chinese option added to settings. (will be set automatically depending on your Steam client) Bug Fixes Fixed the "Title Fight" event from missing a reward when the game is reloaded at the result window. Fixed Ancient Codex not activating when knocked out from above 50% HP when you have a Crown of the Banshee. Status effects will also now apply to enemies at 0 HP which are affected by Undying Ward. Fixed a gap being created in your bags under some circumstances. Fixed a rare visual bug in the tavern when Ste…

• Minor Changes/Fixes (v.1.6.1) - 29 June 2021

  Enemy Changes The Primarch now has 30 Starting MP on Corruption 20. Bug Fixes Fixed a crash involving Bouncing Buckler. Fixed some dialogue windows jolting at the end of their animation. Join us on the official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

• The Keys of Fate - Alternate Final Boss (v.1.6.0) - 24 June 2021

  Hey all! This final content update brings a brand new final boss. The new boss is the original entity which was corrupted, leading to the events seen in the game. This also acts as a teaser for the prequel now in development, as this boss is the protagonist. I am now ready to reveal the title of the new game will be "Primarch", releasing some time in 2022. Victor of a planet wide gauntlet, the Primarch absorbed the abilities of all it defeated. The Primarch toggles between 5 sets of abilities (6 on C20). I recommend a slightly more aggressive party than you would build for the regular final boss - bringing too much healing in place of damage will cause the Primarch to eventually scale out of control. Feel free to unleash your Whirlwind Axes and Symbiotes, this boss does not remove buffs. In order to battle the new boss, you must collect 3 "key items" during a run. The location of each o…

• Touch Screen Support (v.1.5.7) - 3 June 2021

  General Changes You can now double-click to use potions. There is now a touch screen option in the display settings which hides the cursor and optimizes the game for use with Steam Remote Play. Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where the sell hotkey could trigger more than once per press. Join us on the official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

• Hotkeys and More (v.1.5.6) - 30 May 2021

  General Changes There is now an option in the settings to always display the stats of heroes. Types of damage are now named when you hover them in the battle log. A clickable button to pick a random hero is now visible in the tavern. There is now more hotkeys, and all hotkeys can now be changed in the settings. The hotkeys are: Sell Item (while hovering or dragging, only at a merchant) - F key (default). Toggle Map (open and closed) - W key (default). Start Combat - Space (default). Swap Hero Areas - A key (default). Pick Random Hero (at tavern) - R key (default). Use Potion Slot 1-5 - Numbers 1-5 (default). Note: There is a restriction with the platform the game is built on (GMS) where it can not detect the buttons on the sides of mice. Clicking the scroll wheel (Mouse 3) does work for hotkey binding, as well as scrolling up and down, but additional mouse buttons can not be detected. J…

• Skip Dialogue and More (v.1.5.5) - 25 May 2021

  Hey all. Some more requested features are getting added today, but I also wanted to highlight some achievements from players since the Omens update. I decided to secretly reward the first 3 players who shared victories on the Discord featuring Corruption 20 with all 4 Omens active. These players were Doemondo, Zwitterion, and Example. To go a step further, Naduos achieved the same but without taking "The World" starting blessing - something I wasn't even sure was possible! These 4 player's names will be included as key items in the now confirmed 1.6.0 update. This final content update will add an alternate final boss unlocked by collecting keys during the run. The new boss will also be featured as the protagonist of the upcoming prequel to Astronarch, which is now in development (but that's all I can share right now!). ~ Dale Patch 1.5.5 General Changes There is now an option in the set…

• New Settings & Bug Fixes (v.1.5.4) - 20 May 2021

  General Changes The settings window has been redesigned to allow more room for future additions. A new option is available in the settings to disable upscaled graphics. This will increase the performance of the game substantially when not at the 1920x1080 resolution. In testing I was able to play the game on a 10 year old laptop at 60 fps after disabling upscaled graphics and using regular fullscreen mode. Bug Fixes Fixed a circumstance where Water of Life could try to revive a hero with Phantom Band. Fixed the first Altar of Fire option from bugging and causing a crash if you reload the game. Official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

• Combat Timer & Bug Fixes (v.1.5.3) - 17 May 2021

  General Changes Added a very snazzy combat/run timer (toggled in the settings) Bug Fixes Fixed an issue with the Sword in the Stone event having a chance of not giving an item. Fixed a crash when your current corruption level isn't read correctly at the start of the game. Fixed the settings not remembering which full screen setting you preferred when using F1 and F2. Official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

• Bug Fixes (v.1.5.2) - 15 May 2021

  General Changes Added an option in the settings for fullscreen non-borderless. Bug Fixes Fixed a crash caused by the Altar of Fire event when loading a saved run. Fixed an issue with some event options when loading a saved run. Official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

Fixed the Sale Merchant event making the merchant music keep playing once you leave. Fixed a typo in the Pale Figure event. Official Discord: https://discord.gg/5cBSPKk

• Omens - New Difficulties, Features, Events (v.1.5.0) - 13 May 2021

  Hey all! New this update are Omen difficulties. These are optional modifiers you can toggle on or off, and can be used with or without Corruption activated. They are essentially super Corruptions, with each of them being far more impactful than any single Corruption effect. There are 4 in total, which are unlocked as you progress Corruption levels. They provide an experience bonus when activated, and each have a new achievement associated with beating them in a certain way. This major update also brings a rework to Corruption 20, new map events, and balance changes. There are still lots of requested features I want to add before shifting development to the sequel, and I will also be looking at the possibility of translations soon. Thanks for the support as always. ~ Dale Patch 1.5.0 General Changes Optional difficulty modifiers called "Omens" can now be toggled via the Corruption panel.…

• Performance Update (v.1.4.5) - 19 April 2021

  Hey all. This patch is focussed on refining the performance of the game. There were many changes made behind the scenes to dramatically reduce the amount of resources the game uses. If you find anything that doesn't look quite right following this update, please don't hesitate to contact me on the discussion board or Discord. We are close to the next content patch now, which will add: More requested features. More map events, inspired from community suggestions. A rework of C20 and additional difficulty modifiers. ~ Dale Patch 1.4.5 General Changes CPU usage has been reduced by up to 50%. Memory usage has been reduced by 35%. An option has been added to reduce FPS from 60 to 30 (for very low end computers). Item Changes Vampiric Mantle's description has been updated to clarify that the 30% damage is converted to a Bleed and the rest of the damage is taken normally. Enemy Changes Garboid…

• Brand New Soundtrack! (v.1.4.4) - 7 April 2021

  Hey all! About a month ago I mentioned that with the success of the game I was going to commission a composer to make us a custom soundtrack. This was only possible thanks to all of you who bought the game and shared news of it with friends. Also a big thanks to the content creators, who can now be assured they won't randomly trigger a claim on Youtube due to shared music rights. I think you'll all agree RareDigsMusic has done an amazing job, and captured the atmosphere of the game perfectly. A performance overhaul is planned for the next patch, which will reduce the resources needed to run the game by up to 4x. Thank you to those who have been patiently waiting. ~ Dale Patch 1.4.4 General Changes A brand new soundtrack has been added, and is also available as a standalone purchase or in a bundle if you don't have the game yet. The overall volume of the game has been increased. You can…

• Bug Fixes + News (v.1.4.3) - 24 March 2021

  Hey all. Just a little FYI - I'll be away with family from now until the end of March. I'll still try my best to check the discussion board and Discord during this time. I have some very cool updates in the pipeline. The very next update should add the brand new custom composed soundtrack. For future updates, I'm working on a big performance optimization, which will make the game run up to 4x more efficiently. I'll also be adding more requested features, like customizable hotkeys for starting combat and opening the map. The next content update (1.5.0) will rework the current end game and add new events from the suggestion thread. ~ Dale Patch 1.4.3 General Changes If your next combat could reduce your Morale to 0, your Morale will be red and the heart icon will beat. The Fallen's passive ability description has been updated to better describe that item effects which trigger from being a…

• QoL Features (v.1.4.2) - 20 March 2021

  Patch 1.4.2 General Changes Save Slots - You can now select a different game file in the settings, allowing you to start your entire game progress over (not including tavern challenges) while maintaining your original progress in a separate game file.
