Hey everyone!
We've just launched a rather important update though its not gameplay related-- we've overhauled our controller support. We're now using a brand new controller API: this one is more fitting for the type of game that Wishmere is.
We've long recognized that the majority of the issues in Wishmere are controller support related and we apologize for that. We've worked for nearly over a month to redo the ENTIRE controller support for the game.
One of the key features we've worked on is unknown controller support, that now better recognizes and remaps controllers of all makes / brands. This should hopefully fix all the controller related issues that have previously been plaguing the game.
Although, there may be a couple of bugs in there that we've missed. If there is a bug that you've encountered, do let us know here and we'll work on it.
Thanks to all!
(BTW this is not an April Fools' Joke)

Hello all! We've just launched our latest update to Wishmere, and it's called Paragon Ascension!
We've added a new mode called Paragon Battle, a boss battle where you can fight against Elreed at his full strength. The mode is for players who love a challenge and for more advanced players. He's designed to be a boss that's akin to secret bosses in RPGs (think Omega Weapon in FF7) or action games, so he's a little tough (OK, he's very tough)!
If you beat him, you'll get a Keepsake + Taunt of your choosing for any character you wish, so give it a go and go grab some taunts! As he's a little difficult, it'd be interesting to see how players go about beating him. We'd be very interested to see some of your fights against him.
Also, we've unlocked all the previously exclusive seasonal palettes for all the characters (Christmas, Lunar New Year & Halloween), added 2 new taunts for all the characters, so there's plenty things to unlock in this new mode! If you find any bugs, do let us know at [email protected] or in our Discussion forums.
UPDATE: We have just unlocked the previously exclusive seasonal versions of stages. Players should be able to play them in all modes, including Base of Darkness.

Hey everyone,
A nicely packed Wishmere update is here! Thanks to player feedback, we've taken note and made several changes to the game. Our goal with this latest update is to make the game way more welcoming to new players and players who aren't so familiar with fighting game and beat-em-up mechanics.
In the new update, bosses can now enter hit stun and be knocked down, once their superarmor has been broken. The armor is refreshable but this should make the combat of the game more coherent (you'll need combos to break the armor).
We've also made changes to the mechanics of the game to make it easier for newer players to feel welcome and powerful. We've also added in a quick tutorial in the actual gameplay of the game for players to jump right in and learn how to play without going to the tutorial mode.
All in all, we hope the fun of the game shows itself sooner now with these changes!
For a full list of changes, you can check out the Change Log thread. Happy playing and let us know if there are other things you'd like to see in Wishmere in the future!

Holiday Ice Stage - Ice Celebration
Roll around in the festive snow. This stage replaces the Ice Wasteland stage for a limited time.
Holiday Costume Colors

Completing the base with each character will unlock the color for that character. There's no limit, so you can unlock the colors for all the characters!
As per usual, we've also fixed some bugs here and there, based on what's been reported. You can check out the listed bug fixes in the Change Long thread.

Finally, from us here at Crayder Studios, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year. Be safe!

Pumpkins, cobwebs and spooky pumpkins and other goodies.
We've also got some exclusive Halloween costume colors for the festivities. Every character gets some Halloween costume flavor.

Base Change
As a request, we've also made a slight change to the 'Warriors of the Winter' Hard difficulty base in Base of Darkness mode. As requested, we've enabled 30 skill points to be awarded within the first 2 rounds of the 'Warriors of the Winter' base, so that you can play through the whole base with lots of skills upgraded. We're trying the idea out to see if it works, and if it works we might even migrate it to a permanent base in Base of Darkness.
We've also squished / fixed some bugs and made some changes to some hitboxes. You can read more on the Change Log thread. The Halloween update will be up until November 3, after which, the stage and costume colors will be gone, so go try them out before it goes!

Wishmere is now fully released!
Now that Wishmere is in it's fully featured version, we want to highlight that Wishmere can be played a variety of ways; as a single player game, versus or co-op. We've got modes and content for all three modes of play, allowing you to enjoy it as a solo experience or with friends. With a focus of modes, let's go through what is different from our Early Access version:
Story Mode
Explore the story in an over 2 hour story campaign, with in-game cutscenes and dialogue.
Free Mode
Play with friends up to 4 players and fight through the stages, with enemies lurking in every corner. Confront a boss at the end of every stage.
Versus Mode
Throw down with up to 4 players locally. Big combos, freeform playstyle are what it's all about.
Base of Darkness Mode (with 35 challenge maps)
35 challenge maps with Skill Tree upgrades and even an Endless mode for the survivalist in you.
Practice Mode
Like other fighting games, the Practice Mode is robust, allowing for creativity and toggling of settings and situations. Definitely for the lab / combo monster.
Tutorial Mode
Goes through every element of the game, no matter how basic or detailed. After the whole tutorial mode, you will know the ins-and-outs of the game.
Unlockables (7 taunts per character)
7 unlockable items that come with a free taunt, each with it's own set of requirements for an unlock. Comes with some lore too.
13 colors per character (+1 exclusive one for Early Access buyers)
With some fun colors that are nods to fighting game and video game history.
Who doesn't like Trading Cards?
A little graphical exclusive on the splash screen for Early Access buyers, as a thank you (note the orange gem).
Also, we have a Soundtrack Edition and Original Soundtrack DLC coming in a few hours. So, keep an eye out for that!
And that's what's in the game! We wanted to have the modes fully featured, so that every type of player would have something in there for them. We hope that you'll have fun uncovering the game. And if you end up finishing Story Mode, let us know what you think of it!

Here's a quick rundown of what's going on as we head towards September 26:
Wishmere will be releasing on PC / Mac / Linux. We're unable to add the Steam store platform indicators for Mac and Linux right now due to Valve's policy. It will be added on launch day.
The current version offered on our Early Access store is not the fully-realized version. However, getting the Early Access version of Wishmere before release date will still get you the full release version, set to release in just short of two weeks.
We're also looking at getting a nice little Steam bundle up for sale, which will include the game + the official soundtrack done by Zack Parrish.
The full version of Wishmere will feature:
Story Mode
Free Mode
Versus Mode
Base of Darkness Mode (with 35 challenge maps)
Practice Mode
Tutorial Mode (features all gameplay elements in the game)
Unlockables (7 taunts per character)

Hey everyone. We'd like to inform everyone that close to the finish line. It's been a long but awesome 2 years of development for Wishmere.
So, what new features are going to be in the full release? Along with all the current features in the Early Access version, these are the new features. Read on!
Free Mode
Free Mode is like Story Mode but can be played co-op with up to 4 people. You'll get to upgrade your skills and take down enemies and bosses across 7 stages. Each stage has their own 'personality', from saving students to inputting a secret code. Some stages even have (small) secrets!
Story Mode
Story Mode is a single player campaign that explores the story of Wishmere. The character you end up playing for a stage depends on the narrative of the story.
Training Mode
Now with fully featured settings, including dummy settings and input display.
Additional gameplay mechanics
You can now tech recovery from being floored to being airborne with invincibility, similar to Blazblue. Also, Invalid Throws have been implemented to prevent 'jailed' opponents, who are in blockstun, to be thrown by normal throws.
Base of Darkness Mode
The challenge map mode of the game. Includes a total number of 35 bases, including new bosses (like the Wishmere as bosses).
Tutorial Mode
Every gameplay element of the game broken down as concise as possible. Updated to include the new gameplay mechanics.
Unlockables
As you play, you can unlock Taunts (7 taunts per character, tied to Keepsakes) and Keepsakes (which are little trinkets that explain some lore).
13 colors for each character, including some fun nods
From 7 colors in Early Access to 13 for full release. Who doesn't like colors?
And as a thank you to the Early Access players, all Early Access players will all get an exclusive color for all 7 of the playable characters. The exclusive colors will be included with the full release of the game for those that got Wishmere during Early Access. Though, this applies to anyone that picks Wishmere up from now till the day before date of release, so everyone can get it on with some exclusive color action.
We're looking at nailing down a release date soon. In the meantime, do help us out and share the news of Wishmere's upcoming release with your friends who might be interested!

Hey guys,
We just launched our newest hotfix! Good news is that we’ve fixed a lot of the reoccurring bugs, performance-issues have been fixed and generally making the game more consistent. Bad news is that the fix might be a little boring to you guys :(
However, the biggest addition in this hotfix is the additional ‘hitstop’ added to all attacks that make contact with enemies. Hitstop is a game element where there is a brief stop when an attack makes contact with an opponent. This allows for players to properly tell what is going on in the game, rather than frantically having to interpret what’s going on. This should make combos easier for players and also keep the player feeling strong, due to the increased impact of each attack. Hitstop is normally present for fighting games and certain beat em ups, so hopefully this helps.
For a list of the changes, check out the Change Log here.
Cheers everyone.

Hey all,
A big update here: one new character and a Tutorial Mode! The bad guy of Wishmere is now playable: Doubt is here! And the Tutorial Mode covers all the mechanics in the game, so it'll hopefully teach players something they might not have know (we hope!).
This should be our last big content update in Early Access, as we push towards the Arcade and Story modes of the game. We will still definitely be fixing bugs, so if you find something, let us know in the forums and we'll get right on it!
