Hi, Adorers!
We have been listening closely to all community feedback and the most asked feature is a way to keep your creatures between runs.
We were a bit reluctant about that in the beginning because it could break a pillar of a good roguelite: Every run feeling different.
Gladly we found a way to merge the best of the two worlds and we are really excited for you to play and test it on June 30th!
Shrine of the Adorers - Creature Collecting System
To keep your creatures, you start with one slot and can use your fragments to unlock new ones.
Between runs, you will not lose the level and traits (curses & bonds) of your creatures.
They are Permanent. But the blessings of Draknar(synergies) that your creatures receive during the run, will dissipate. This will keep things fresh for each run!
Besides that, you can only leave the temple with one or two creatures. That depends if you want to spend all your Essences.
During the run, you can also use the Shrine to deposit or get your creatures(costs 1 Essence).
And of course, now you can rename your creatures! <3
Trait System
Every creature now feels different! You can have two Dommus, but each one of them will have unique traits.
The traits have two types: Bonds and Curses.
Bonds are strong ties that grow between you and your creatures. The more you use them, the higher is the chance of your creature creating a bond with you.
Leech: The creature's attacks have a chance to recover health. Blessed: Chance of not spending stamina when summoned. Agressive: Increased attack speed. Voracious: Increased damage against one type of creature. Swift: Increased movement speed. Greedy: Chance of dropping extra gold from killed creatures. Accurate: Critical attack chance. Energetic: Special energy increases faster. Healthy: Heals more from healing effects. Tough: Increased max health.
Curses: If you expose your creature to the world of Gaterdrik, that is under a big curse, it increases the chance of 'infecting' your creature.
Sluggish: Reduced attack speed. Fragile: The creature receives more damage. Unified: The adorer receives damage when its creature gets hit. Weary: Has a chance of spending all your stamina to summon. Lethargic: Special energy increases slower. Weak: Reduced attack damage. Slow: Reduced move speed.
- Purify Creatures: You can clean the curses using the Purify totem on the temple. After you leave the creature purifying, it will remove the curses gradually while you are playing.
Thank you very much for all the feedback!
