It’s Leon here, I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
As of now I’m mostly focused on Sheeple but do not fret Idiots’ Fantasy and Rune It Out both have their new updates nearly ready. They should be out before February, as of Sheeple I’m as of now focusing on the Overworld part and readying up the game for the Demo which’s release date I'm going to announce soon.
As I’m writing this I’m thinking of a resolution for the new year that will help me waste less time and use more time on Game-Dev, ahh I need to limit my reading. To be frank Manga and Manwha are really addicting. Either way I think you all already have your resolutions done so I wish you prosperity in fulfilling them.
Have a Successful New Year! Leon

Original postHello there Runemages!
(I will need to think about a better title :D)
It's me, Leon!
For the last 3 months I've been adding lights, post-processing, optimizing said lights, and adding many small elements like fire sounds and so on.
This is the new beginning for Rune It Out! After the 2.0 version I've been trying to get my head around graphics for this game but it was really difficult and that combined with the ever-closing release date of Idiots' Fantasy made me take a break from developing Rune It Out. With the release of Idiots' Fantasy, I thought how could I return to Rune It Out in an optimal manner which is why now I'm going to spend 10 minutes daily developing this game instead of taking every Monday for development which was quite inconsistent.
So from now on, I plan to develop this game 10 minutes a day or more. This is its first significant update and there will be more, I will now go on changing the character graphics AI behavior, and animations. I post more game changes on the Ill-Fated Studios Discord server so go there if you want to hear more about the updates.
Because the development of this game went outside of the range possible for me when I started this project, now I'm going to call the new versions "idiocracy" as many skills I will be using to develop new updates I've gained developing Idiots' Fantasy.
So in a Nutshell:
- Expect an updated every 2-3 months.
- Each update will rework the game significantly .
- The game will be fully reworked in one year.
- This game's development will not stop till I breathe so don't think that's how far this game gets.
Changelog:
- Sound Relative to fire size, sound distance increasement
- Fire Clip
- Fire Audio Sourdce
- Fire End animation
- Scale down on fire end
- Lock movement at start
- Add countdown sound
- Add countdown shade
- Add countdown text
- Find an all in one sound
- Add sound to "Add Ai"
- Add sound to "Chose map"
- Text box saying: "One more player or AI is required" in Arena mode
- Lower Hp to 100
- Increase overall spell damage
- On/Of volume graphics General/SFX/Music/Ui
- Fix volume edition General/SFX/Music/Ui
- Percentage text in audio General/SFX/Music/Ui
- Transfer the game to URP
- Set global light to 0.2
- Add player highlights
- Give runes specialized glow
- Give spells color lights
- Give fire light
- Give electricity light
- Give Nature light
- Create a new Project of Rune It Out
- Rename the new project to Rune It Out
- Import the new project
- Change the project version to 2021
- Create a Global Volume
- Light The main Menu
- Light the GameLobby
- Light the game Room
- Light the arena map
- Add glow to game
- Add Vigniete to game
- Add split toning to the game
- Light The tutorial
- Add basic shadows
Have a fruitful day!

In this week's devlog we're going to cover the first homing spell in Rune It Out the Bingus!
Bingus is a spell that is created by combining electricity water and nature runes. it's a first-homing spell which means that after being cast it will start closing to the first player outside of its caster near it. After hitting its caster it will create a field of electricized water.Here is Bingus Lore:
During ancient times, the devout believers of the revered salmon deity, Bingus, were subjected to brutal oppression and harassment at the hands of the otter community. In order to protect his loyal followers, Bingus developed and taught them the first summoning spell that had the power to call forth his divine form. This miraculous manifestation of Bingus served as a shield to safeguard the Salamon people from any harm that may have come their way.Have a prosperous week!

In this week's post, I'm going to make a spotlight for fire in rune it out!Did you know that fires can spread quickly? If a fire starts, it can grow bigger and bigger, even damaging the terrain and harming players. And if it's not put out, even a small fire can end up burning down an entire area. It's important to remember that fires can be put out with water, so be sure to take care of them as soon as possible. Also, once the object or being hosting the fire gets destroyed, the fire will go away too.
Have a prosperous day!

Original postHello everybody, on the last day of summer I'd like to present you with our last effort of summer the "Songs of Runes" update.
In the "Songs of Runes" update, the brand point is the introduction of music to Rune It Out. The game had for a long time option for music volume yet up to this point it was not in usage. It was caused mostly because I didn't want to introduce bad or unoriginal music to the game.
Outside of music, many other things have been added to the game. Such as:
AI has been given even more lessons on how to play the game and now has acquired a second brain cell!- The water effect now decreases four times faster.
- Water blocks wet the player 20 times faster.
- Bush HP is now 50% of the original.
- The gardens map has been restructured
Old Gardens:
Reworked Gardens:
That's all for the "Songs of Runes Update" I hope you liked it. From now on Rune It Out is going to have a little break from such Frequent updates as a new big feature is planned to be added.
Have a prosperous Week! Lededev

Original postHello everyone and welcome to the 1.8 Update!
As summer progresses, we continue to work on our next game, but don't worry, Rune It Out is still being developed. With the "Expanding the Known" update, we've reached version 1.8 of Rune It Out, which means the game has improved by one level.
The most exciting news with this update is the addition of two new maps:
- - "Water X"
-
- "River Lane"
Another important update is that the tutorial has been brought up to the current level of the game. This includes:
- Explanation of electric element
- Explanation of nature element
- Texts marking exits from tutorials
- Texts marking entrances to tutorials
We've also improved the AI code, making it more capable and targeting only players instead of other AI. While it's not the smartest, it's doing its best and will continue to improve in the future.
Lastly, we've fixed the movement system, so it no longer gets stuck. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know!
Thanks for coming to read this updates description and as always

Original postHello there! This is Lededev. I hope you are all achieving great heights!
Today I wanted to let you know that we're making some changes to how we do our Devlogs on YouTube. We'll be switching from weekly videos to a monthly recap, so you'll get all the latest updates in one video at the end of the month.
Regarding Steam and Instagram content, there won't be many changes to the current format. However, I suggest being cautious as some glimpses of our upcoming game may be revealed soon.
Regarding last week's Devlogs, I would like to express my gratitude for your patience. With the start of summer, I now have more time to dedicate to GameDev since school has closed. However, I also have gaps in my calendar due to planned trips and events. Thank you for your understanding.
And as always, I wish you all a prosperous week!

Original postWelcome to the weekly devlog!
I hope you're doing well. This week, we've added a new type of magic called Homing magic and unlocked the third-tier magic. Let's dive into the details.
As new spells are gradually introduced to the game, we have now reached the point where the third tier of spells becomes available.
The tier number indicates the minimum number of runes needed to cast the spell, with higher-tier spells requiring more complex combinations.
Additionally, homing magic has been included in the update, which is a type of spell that automatically targets the nearest enemy sorcerer within range.The "Manifestation of Bingus" is the first spell of the third tier.
This spell enables you to summon a one-of-a-kind electric salmon.Watch on YouTube There are also a few other things that have been added:
- Map choosing option in Lobby
- New map "Park"
- Fixed the create room bug which appeared after exiting a room
- New health bar representing left HP
- A screen shake on being hit
- Text object representing received damage
- Flash graphic on health bar representing the lost hp
We hope that you can enjoy using the new spell "Manifestation of Bingus" as much as we enjoyed making it and that you will be able to immerse yourself even more with the new damage mechanics.
Thanks for reading and as always...
Have a superb week!Ill-Fated Studios

Original postHi, and thank you for coming to the weekly devlog.
Greetings everyone, I trust you are all thriving. I've had the luxury of a full week to focus on improving our game, and I'm proud to say that the hard work has paid off. I'm excited to share with you the results of this complete overhaul.
The "Visual Overhaul" has two parts: the UI and the Gameplay. For the Gameplay part, the changes are focused on the map. I reduced the map's size by 25% and decreased the player movement speed by 30%. I have also added element scaling. This feature allows you to see the impact of your runes based on the size of a flame or the transparency of water. In the UI section, I removed the chanting boxes and made it so that only the player who possesses charging runes can see them. During spell casting, you can see other players' runes above their heads. I have moved the interface objects to the left, which creates space on the right for spectators and a commentator.
Other Features:
New Spell Thunderbolt
Added an on-hit effect for the Earth blocks
New map "The Garden"
Air rebalance 1
Fire Buff 2
Balance changes to spells 3
Deleted the Chanting speed system 4
Added few new sound effect 5Watch on YouTube - Air rebalance, now depending on air power the time of push effect is changed rather than the strength.
- Fire Buff, doubled the small fire's grow speed, increased overall fire grow speed by 30%
- Balance changes to spells, lowered the range of fire spark, increased the range of Air push, lowered the range of stone burst, now the Stone Bolt does not create a wall on hit.
- Now the time of spell casting is not dependant on how fast you can type a spell it's a set amount of time.
- New commentator has a "get ready!" and "start!" voice lines also the ending screen has been given a sound on opening.
Thank you for reading this week's devlog, I hope you have a superb week!

Original postHi and welcome everybody to our weekly devlog. This week I have some exciting news to share with you, Electric element is being added to the game!!!. Electric element creates electricity around themselves dealing damage to both terrain and players, also it spreads on the water!!!
Watch on YouTube Besides the most exciting electric element, I have a few other changes to share with you:
The maximal amount of water that can stack on a player has been lowered. Now both UI and in-game sorcerer have an animation for being hit. When turning to left or right your in-game character will react and also turn to that side! Artefact game mode has been repaired (I'm sorry for its temporary malfunction, sadly some files have gone missing due to big increments in the latest workflow surrounding the game causing said malfunction). Rooms in the artefact lobby now no longer go out of their bracket. The timing of the end animation on spells has been improved. And from now spells after hitting an object don't go further.Thank you for reading this week's devlog!!!
I hope you have a superb week!!!

Original postHello everyone! We hope you're doing well. We've been really busy over here at Ill-Fated Studios, but we're excited to share some great news with you. Our grand 1.2 update is finally here, and we think you're going to love it! The theme of this update is Nature, and we've added a brand new Nature element that we think you'll find really exciting. It has some powerful healing effects that can increase the health of both players and the terrain. And get this: your walls can now be Immortal! We've also included an unlockable spell in a grimoire called "Nature Surge," which is a powerful Nature instant AOE spell that we think you'll really enjoy.
Here you have a small presentation of the new element!
Watch on YouTube But that's not all! We've also made some changes to improve the gameplay experience. We've fixed a few ending animations on spells and made some adjustments to improve the overall feel of the game. We've also removed the ability to see other players' "aim assist" to make the game fairer. Buttons like "enter room" and "create room" now disable themselves after being clicked, and the start game button will display "loading" after being clicked. We've also made some small changes to the "aim assist" and the destroyed grass sprite has been changed from empty green to dirt. And last but not least, we've added some movement animations to the sorcerers and lowered the player movement speed by 33%.
We hope you'll enjoy these updates as much as we enjoyed creating them. Thanks for playing our game, and we can't wait to see you in the game soon!
