Hello!Double EXP for new players for 1 month! Read more about it in the devlog! :)I will continue to develop the game, most likely for a very long time. But I will take breaks, this is the 2nd update in a short time and this is a pretty big one. My guess is that the next update after this will be a christmas update where I might introduce new things and systems, who knows. There might be updates earlier but time will tell. Regardless, the game will continue getting updates, that is the point I'm trying to make. There will always be new things to challenge the players. Every suggestion and bug report is valuable as it helps improve the game. And that is what we all want, a fun, challenging game, and on top of that: a great adventure!A reminder for those who do not know. There is a NPC below the first starting temple in the first town. Who offers a full stat and skill reset. You can do th…

And new players can get super lucky and get something that higher level players would want.

- Dev Log #25: New content and FIGHT! - 26 August 2023
So much is happening in the game right now. Make sure to join the discord channel for all the info and help from the community: K2H Discord Channel Highlights: * When entering a boss area, and the boss has already been killed. You will be notified how long time is left until it spawns. * Party exp has been increased to 110% from 50%. It is very beneficial to play with friends since you all gain more exp the more players you are. Consider these scenarios where you attack a monster that gives 1000 EXP per hit: 1 player (no party): You get 1000 EXP. 2 players (in party): Each player gets 1050 EXP. 3 players (in party): Each player gets 1067 EXP. 4 players (in party): Each player gets 1075 EXP. So each extra player adds a 10% extra from the monster EXP that the players share on each attack. * Added the first quest for Island 6. Quests on Island 6 will not be included in the questbook. * New…
