Knock, knock, travelers!
We are rushing to bring you fresh news from development. Today our diary will be action-packed, so get comfortable and let's go.
New Cards Landing
Among all the various demons that have flooded the Northern Gate, there’s one that can instill real animal fear even in the bravest of heroes. Of course, we're talking about the Keeper of Fear and his favorite trick—slipping a few bad cards into your deck. Our artists have worked hard and created new artwork for these very cards. Are you ready to face your fears and phobias and defeat the enemy? Well, we'll see soon!
Sound Mind and Firm Memory
We won't stray far from the newly created residents of the Castle's surroundings. It’s well known that our heroes will face many challenges on their way to their final goal. One such challenge is the Keeper of Illusions. His harmful impact on the heroes’ mind can cause serious trouble in battle, so to allow you to experience his power along with the heroes, we’ll add a real psi-attack to the event. Be careful and keep your mind calm (as much as possible).
The Pipe in His Hand, The Smoke in the Steppes
There’s an orc shaman in the Crimson Steppes who’s understood this world completely. All he needs is peace and tranquility, so he warmly invites every traveler to join him. Our animators have worked a bit on the atmosphere in that friendly orc's camp, and now, if you decide to smoke a pipe, a visual effect of light smoke is guaranteed. Actually, there’ll be much more, but that's a different story.
Small but Mighty
When adding effects for the heroes, we didn't forget about Vanadis' pets. This week, Tulip and Waggytail got some gifts from our animators and they’re eager to show them off in all their glory.
Pardon or Punish, Punish or Pardon
Sometimes enemies change their intention to surrender, sometimes they don’t... So, these updated intention icons will definitely help you to clearly see what your enemies are intending. As for which of the ‘P’s they will get—pardon or punish, punish or pardon—that’s up to you.
Druid Almighty!
Our lycan already has a tough life, but there are advantages to be found everywhere. The Lunar Druid set not only looks great on Bjorn but also offers pleasant bonuses, which now look vivid, by the way. All thanks to the new VFX carefully prepared by our animators.
2 items from the set give you a Strength bonus equal to the current Balm value and envelop the hero in a refreshing green aura.
3 items increase Bjorn's maximum health by 20 points at the start of the battle, depending on the number of "Lycan Curse" cards in the deck. The appearance of a spectral wolf won’t let you miss it.
As for the 5-piece set, it instantly destroys enemies with less than 30% health remaining. Quite an interesting side effect.
How about some chit-chat?
Hi everyone, this is Andrew aka Innrey, the founder of Redboon. Week after week pass by, and we are fully immersed in preparations for the big update.
You’re probably tired of hearing about the upcoming patch, and I agree with you—we’re pretty tired too. After finishing all the things we plan to add to the game, a considerable number of bugs have surfaced. Our whole team is catching and fixing them almost non-stop. However, we still have energy, and we are not giving up!
But let's not talk about our sore spots. We’re preparing a new video diary dedicated to the patch. We’ll also talk to our writer about his work on creating the world of KOTCL and other aspects of the profession. You bombarded us with questions, and they’re all so interesting that it was difficult for us to choose the ones to include in the video. If we don't answer your question in the video, please don't be upset. We’ll try our best to discuss everything one way or another.
It’s probably worth mentioning that our community is slowly but surely growing. Last week, we surpassed the 1000 followers mark on X (formerly Twitter), which is very pleasing. I’m sure there will be more, and I want to thank each one of you for your support.
Well, it's time to end this week's summary and get back to work. But don't forget—more exciting and interesting news is on the way soon!
