- Game update/bugfix - 27 August 2023
Another small batch of bugfixes and changes: Corrected a few more spelling errors Fixed the 'Downtrodden' achievement; This achievement slipped through the cracks of our testers, not triggering when it should. Changed how the 'Lest' Achievement is unlocked. Previously, you could lock yourself out of this achievement on a single playthrough by defeating Petyr 4 times. Now, you can also unlock it by meeting him at cragmoth after defeating him that many times. As always, thank you to the players discussing and reporting these bugs! Ibe
- Game update/bugfix - 15 August 2023
Some minor fixes this time around: Corrected some typos and spelling errors Fixed a rare bug in the magic school where no poem would be shown Other small fixes to the poetry rendering cheers Ibe
- Game update/bugfix - 9 August 2023
Again some bugfixes and small changes to the gameplay: Fixed a bug where the 'heart' card did not show the correct damage when dispirited, inspired or shielded. Fixed a rare bug where the campaign mode was not interactable at all except for panning & zooming the map. Adjusted the gauntlet mode so that wizards are assigned tiers and arranged accordingly. This is to prevent the player encountering a difficult late-game wizard at the start of their gauntlet run. Implemented some small optimizations (to be tested on lower end hardware). cheers Ibe
- Game update/bugfix - 7 August 2023
This update brings some well needed bugfixes: Fixed a bug where the secret road to Caern does not properly unlock. Poor sod Urick was literally trapped on the island. This fix works retroactively for players who have already done the quest. Fixed poem highlighting bug where incorrect words were highlighted (e.g. grain instead of rain, knight instead of night). Fixed a bug where the damage predictions of some cards didn't update when drawn last from the deck (the queen card for instance). Fixed some dialogue conditions cheers Ibe

- Steam deck compatibility - 21 July 2023
If you're wondering how compatible Verses of Enchantment is with the Steam deck before Steam does their own tests, here's a rundown: The game runs natively on linux and performs well The game has full controller support The game has an alternative font to improve legibility But... The game's UI & text was originally designed for larger screens, so the game does not read that well on the Steam deck So in short; The game is playable on the Steam deck, but I recommend a PC for a more comfortable experience. Cheers Ibe
- Release date announcement - 17 July 2023
Hi all, The time has finally come; Verses of Enchantment is releasing in 2 weeks, on the 1st of August! Thank you all who have wishlisted and tried the demo, I'm excited for you to try the full game! Save files are compatible with the full version, so no need to start over! Cheers Ibe
- Demo update - 14 June 2023
Hi all, Another update to the game implementing some requested features and accessibility: Changed the deck card limit to 15-20 cards instead of exactly 15 Added a travel button to the map nodes so you can directly travel there Added a duel speed option Added full controller support (steam deck to be tested soon) Fixed a lot of minor UI and other bugs Adding controller support was more of a hassle than expected, on to steam integration (cloud saves, achievements,...)! Cheers Ibe
- Demo update - 30 May 2023
Hi all, Here's another update to the game: Added the 'Gallery' to the title screen where all featured public domain artwork is viewable The game now makes automatic save backups in case data gets corrupted Fixed a bug where Elana's AI would lock up when using her 'Dust' card (Thanks @LVS for reporting this bug) With the gallery added to the game, the game is feature complete. In the coming month, I'll be adding some more story content, steam integration (cloud saves, achievements,...) and implementing and testing some requested features/changes. Cheers Ibe
- Demo update - 19 May 2023
Hi all, Here's a quick update to the demo: Changed the mouse cursor to something more thematic Added accessibility options for fonts, and colorblindness, among others Incompatible save data is now moved to a separate folder instead of being deleted There's been reports that the game crashes when entering the campaign mode; this is caused by incompatible save files from previous versions. Normally, these should be compatible, but as a temporary workaround, the game will put saves from previous versions in C:\Users\ \AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Verses of Enchantment\old\ and create a new one. So if you're wondering where your save data went and would like to transfer your data, please send your save file to [email protected] so I can see where the problem lies and push an update that allows for these saves to be patched. Cheers Ibe
