Original postThis is the biggest Storms 2 update so far. I've been working hard to get this game where it needs to be.
So what exactly is being updated?
Firstly, problems with saving and loading have been fixed. Your character can now save and come back seamlessly. Did I mention saving and loading is way faster now?
Secondly, the graphics are being updated.
No more weird-looking characters. Yes, it was pretty ugly before, I must admit, but now we've got a ton of cool animations. The players, characters, and enemies have never looked better.
Items got cooler. Every item in the game is getting a reskin, and it looks awesome.
The user interfaces are now super fancy - AND they all blend thematically. Simple yet beautiful.
Almost all possible skills have had visual upgrades.
The environments loo much better as well.
Thirdly, The soundtrack has been updated. I've been doing some hard work and the music is legit.
Lastly, a ton of bugs have been fixed, and on top of that, the experience is smoother than ever.
I am sorry, but this update isn't out quite yet. I've got a lot of work to do. Save the date, even though there is none. (I'll probably release the update around the end of February. Hopefully sooner.)
Thank you fans for sticking around. If you're new, give it a shot - there's a lot of content in this game for just five bucks.
I want the game to be cheap so that people can experience what I've done. Making this game is a huge passion of mine. I've done (and will continue doing) almost all of the work alone. There are some people who helped me along the way of course, but I have built this game up from almost nothing.
I started Storms when I was 16. I was in high school and it was a great day to not pay attention and day dream. It was then I set out to make a cool video game with all sorts of cool ideas. Ten years later, I'm still going at it, but I am amazed at the progress that I have made. I hope you support me in making this game great and getting as many people to experience it as we can. Thank you all,
Regards,
-Shaun Hogan
PS. The skill Wind is extremely underrated. Please try it out.
