Fix for a crash that sometimes happens when trying to find locations for enemies to spawn dynamically. Fix for Shold's Breach Ability not playing animation correctly. Fix for ranged ghoul not attacking frequently enough. Fix for Lost Soul Hammer enemy not consistently dropping loot when it should. Tutorial Replaced Lost Soul Sword enemy in the tutorial deflect section with a Lost Soul Hammer enemy. The Lost Soul Hammer enemy should be an easier target to learn how to deflect against. Reduced the number of deflects that need to happen from 3 to 2. Reduced the number of dodges that need to happen from 3 to 2.
- Mortal Rite 00.09.109 - 9 May 2025
Tower visual updates. Stability improvements. Lost Soul Sword and Lost Soul Shield enemies should no longer decide to wait so long between attacks sometimes.
- Major Update #2 - The King’s Tower - 7 May 2025
Devlog: Enter the Tower - Risk, Reward, and Ruin The Tower has finally opened. We're excited to finally pull back the curtain on The King's Tower, our core rogue-lite experience. It's a labyrinth of procedural rooms, surreal architecture, and escalating danger. What Is the Tower? The Tower is our take on a rogue-lite experience, while still allowing the player to make meaningful decisions along the way. To progress, the tower requires blood to climb to the next floor, but you can choose how to collect the blood. Entering any chamber requires payment, in gold or blood. Each floor offers two types of chambers: Standard Chambers: Inexpensive and plentiful. Face single enemies in a duel, take on strategic enemy compositions, or run in and open enough chests to escape the chamber. The symbols on each door tell you just enough to get a sense of what lies ahead. Strongholds: A larger, more ope…

- Dev Log 12 - Building for Multiplayer - 8 October 2024
One of the main things that we’ve had in mind since the beginning was multiplayer. When we first started testing multiplayer , we quickly found out that balancing enemies for multiple players needed multiple approaches to make it engaging. Just scaling enemy health wasn’t enough, as it felt artificially difficult. Enemies felt oddly tanky, even the lost souls, who were relatively easy to kill. So Jensen came up with a way to adjust how enemies should feel not just based on health, but across many things at once. So lets dive into how these things affect the experience for the player. Health Scaling an enemies health depends on their class. We can scale a Lost Soul to go from 2-3 attacks gradually to 4-7 attacks depending on how many players are in the session. Its not a large increase, but it makes a difference when there are more of them, and your usual attacks, leave them just barely…
