Howdy everyone!
Today we launched our store page for Wild West and Wizards so you can now wishlist it and be notified when it launches into early access! We are very excited to bring this game to you and can't wait to build it alongside your feedback. Be on the lookout for release date information within the next few weeks.
On more content related news, here's a look at what we've been working on recently!
Combat and AI Updates
One major area we've been working on recently is combat. We added a new hand animation for when you cast a spell and have been working on new enemy abilities and behaviors. When you encounter enemy wizards out in the wild west, we want them to have a variety of different spell options they can throw at you to keep you on your toes. Combat is still a work in progress but we're pretty happy with how it's coming along so far.
World Building and New Points of Interest
The world of Wild West and Wizards is huge and we are working hard to make sure it doesn't feel too empty. This has been a lot of work for our small team but we think it's worth it and necessary for you to have a fun and adventurous exploration experience. We've been doing a lot of work adding new points interests, quests, and puzzles to each zone. This is something we will still be adding more to after early access launch but we want to make sure there is a good base of content for you to play from the beginning.
New Items and Loot
We want exploring the world and fighting enemies to be rewarding, and as such we are adding a lot of loot! This past week we spent some time populating various treasure and bandit chests in the world with loot tables so you'll few rewarded when you clear a bandit camp or complete a puzzle. We're still working on this area of the game and are adding new and unique loot consistently.
New Abilities
In addition to new loot, we've also been working on adding some unique spells and abilities! Recently we added an ability called Life Steal that allows you to take health from an opponent. We also added some abilities like Sacrifice Blood that lets you take your own health in exchange for mana (good for you non-muggle types), and abilities like Counter Spell that silence and stop an enemy's spell attack if timed correctly.
As always, thanks for reading and we'd love to hear your feedback!
