Surprise! Over a year after launch, Kingsvein gets Steam cards and other community items, like little emoticons and profile backgrounds! I commissioned some beautiful artwork from TEOFT for the cards, and they turned out awesome! He has a fun gritty style that matches Kingsvein w
Here's a new flail to play with, and lots of fixes to smooth out issues with Fangs, Suplex, and Trigger-like weapons. That, and modders can now add dialog directly to the menu if they choose! CHANGES New flail, the Stoneripper, which deals bonus damage to Poisoned or Bleeding tar
It's been exactly one year since Kingsvein launched, so let's celebrate with a big new usability feature: ability demos! Now when you look at an ability in your class window, you get to see an example preview of it! There's also two new items and a new passive to play with, plus
Work to improve Kingsvein's balance, engine, and modding continues! Desecrate and Catalyze get a nice visual and mechanical upgrade, and there's a swathe of buffs in store for Vanguard abilities. CHANGES Crysolith's Desecrate reworked: It now deals 50% Ruin damage to all contiguo
Here's a little update just in time for the Turn-based RPG fest! Gouge is a little weaker when maxed out, dumb enemies are even dumber, and tooltips can be made way bigger (perfect for playing on the small screen of a Steam Deck). v1.1.22 Added 'Double Tooltip Size' option Chisel
Here are a load of bugfixes, balance tweaks, and a couple convenience features just in time for the summer sale! And Kingsvein has been added to the Rad Codex Tactics Bundle ! v1.1.21 Can now 'bookmark' classes by right-clicking or pressing Ability Select (default: Y) on them. Bo
Now that it's been a few months, it's a good time to buff some underused abilities - especially single-target or weapon-based delayed attacks! Judgment, Snipe, and Meteor Slam all compete with Bide, because they all require extra team coordination to land consistently. But Bide o
Kingsvein now has a 16th class, the Swarm's Eye! As a combination archer-summoner, the Swarm's Eye controls a swarm of Vixflies, calling them as allies or even shooting them directly at enemies. The Swarm's Eye has high versatility, power, and range, but high MP costs. They can a
Now that the Steam Workshop is up and running, here's a load of bugfixes and mod fixes. In addition, a light buff for the Crysolith's Fell Shards passive. v1.072 Crysolith's 'Fell Shards' passive Ruin damage to the target increased from 1 -> 2 Bone Shield now also grants +1 Ma
Kingsvein now has Steam Workshop support!! There are already lots of great mods - check out the workshop here ! It's now been 1 month since Kingsvein released. Thank you all for giving my strange little RPG a shot! And thanks so much to the talented modders who have already creat
New passive, with more tweaks and fixes! Next up, even more fixes, especially for modding. I'd like to get Steam Workshop support ready for Kingsvein sooner rather than later! v1.05 Added new Crysolith passive 'Chilling Curse'! BALANCE Added a small extra encounter to the Commone
It's Kingsvein's first balance patch! There's a few changes to over-dominant abilities, and some buffs for underused ones. (And plenty of bugfixes too.) The biggest change is to Fragile. Fragile gets too much mileage in mid- and late-game - for both the player and enemies - so it
Time for some changes that archers should enjoy! A new 'Archery Glove' item that is usable with Bows can now be found in some of the late-game dungeons, and a crash involving the 'Decider' bow has been fixed. v1.03 Added new Archery Glove item (found in various late-game dungeons
More bugfixes today! Among them, removing a couple of bugs that could give the player infinite movement, or even let one of the secret bosses leave the combat area if it felt like it. Speaking of movement, the journal for Wyverns now explains how mounting them works: v1.02 Added
I disliked turn-based RPG Kingsvein at first. Quite a bit, in fact. An earlier version of this review would have been a very negative on, filled mostly with complaints and annoyances about opaque and frustrating systems, most of which I've since got over as the intent behind its
Time for Kingsvein's very first patch! A few rare crash issues snuck into v1.0, so I'd like to get rid of them quickly. v1.01 Fixed being able to glitch out intro army scene when standing in a specific spot Fixed being able to kill first Wisp too quickly, breaking the cutscene Fi
