- Montly development report - 16 April 2026
Hi everyone! In the last month, I've spent most of my time restructuring the software to better accommodate future features (refactoring is the technical term), so these changes are more impactful from a developer perspective than a player one. Still, I have some highlights of changes for you:New combat skills (as in Melee Attack, Dodge Defense, Archery, and Block Defense): Fire/Lightning/Feyzir Magic. Air/Earth/Fire domains (for nature magic), and positive/negative energy channeling (for light/dark/chaos/order spells — either divine or plasmic, or even arganon abilities) are coming.These skills enhance the effects of their related abilities. They can be bought with XP and are also prerequisites for acquiring abilities. They should be able to be increased by training with NPCs and books in the future.New skill-related abilities will be created, following a similar pattern to Melee Attac…

- Weekly report and roadmap - 7 March 2026
Hi people. I've been busy this week with other matters, therefore it was not possible to come with a game update for the weekend. Still, I bring the weekly report and the roadmap for future updates.I am currently working on area optimization, mainly on memory optimization, with some repercussion on FPS. For now, I recorded a saving of about 5GB of RAM in some areas, like Death's Pass, Valmsteim Forest and Dark Forest, while other areas have about 2GB of savings. The FPS improvement ranged from 10% to 38% (measured in specific spots).The next update, with this optimization, should arrive next week. This will be the last update before I dive deep into the software "infrastructure" to reform it in order to make it more viable to accommodate future features, like improved AI, an improved action/ability system, etc. This means I will become more absent while doing this, but I may occasionall…
