• Weapon Crafting Preview - 2 August 2019

  Just wanted to give you guys a quick update on the new weapon and shield crafting system: https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8541082%2Ff69a8370f95c32acc3b22888a2d6e74d1ea207a9.jpg A few weeks ago Hugin got me the assets for the new weapons and shields and I have been implemented the new crafting systems as well as the new melee combat system. The new crafting system will work similar to the wand crafting system where each item will take two to four components to craft: Weapons: 1. Handle 2. Blade 3. Enchantment (Optional) 4. Gem (Optional) Shields: 1. Surface 2. Boss 3. Enchantment (Optional) 4. Gem (Optional) Like with the wand crafting system the various components will contribute different things to the resulting item. For example, the handle type will determine whether the weapon is one-handed or two-handed and the blade will determine the types of atta…

• Beta Live & New Hub Zone - 21 September 2018

  The beta branch is now live! New Hub Zone and Dungeons With this update comes a new zone: "The Humble Anchorage." The Humble Anchorage is a hub zone added to the Reforged realm and is now the default starting zone for that realm. This zone also provides access to two new dungeons, "The Library" and "The Crypt." The Library is accessible through the temple in The Humble Anchorage, whereas The Crypt is reached after battling through the first three levels of The Library. The new zones will also serve as a proving ground for many of the new systems and changes we have planned. The Grinning Boar can still be accessed as its own separate realm. Over time we are going to integrate the old zones around the Grinning Boar into the new system and make them accessible from The Humble Anchorage. Some zones will be fixed whereas others will be updated to use the new dynamic dungeon generator, which…

• Development Update - 6 April 2018

  I just wanted to share a development update with everyone. We are still very excited for the future of Counter Spell, even if the speed of development has slowed somewhat. Hugin is still hard at work at University, but the good news is he will be back working full time on Counter Spell this summer. Things will probably be pretty quiet around here until then, with only a few minor updates. Here's what we have planned for the big development push over the summer: 1.) Finishing up the new human character and NPC models and various class specific outfits. 2.) Expanding on the random dungeon generator to create above ground zones for the Reforged realm. 3.) Further refine the new skill and spell system and provide new, enhanced spell visual effects 4.) Implement a new difficulty system and provide proper progression for the Reforged realm 5.) Start expanding the weapon crafting into other we…
