Knock, knock, travelers!
Has anyone here found a bug? Let us know in the comments and we’ll start fixing and improving it right away! This week, we have another batch of fixes and updates to keep things running smoothly—adventures must go on!
Thanks to your incredible support and bug reports, we’ve been able to patch up some issues and add a few nice touches. And at the end of this diary, we’ll be polling again.
So, get comfortable, and let’s see what’s new together!
Not Bugs, But Equally Important
We’re speeding things up. Now, the "fast mode" setting affects text speed in events and the quest log, and allows you not to wait for all the text to appear before choosing a response in events. Your clicks will become a bit faster, and time won’t slip through your fingers.
But someone seems to have gone too fast, and text disappeared from some dialogues completely, but it’s already been fixed.
Castling Move
Now, you can not only change classes in the crypt, but also switch characters. Yes, you’ve been asking for this, and it’s a long-awaited feature. Tired of Bjorn? Let’s take a walk with Persival!
How’s The DLC Coming Along?
While part of the team is focused on fixing bugs and improving the game, our artists are deep into creating content for the DLC. We’ve shown you this location before. Look at the progress that’s been made. We think it’s shaping up to be a very cozy spot, and we can’t wait for you to explore it!
It’s The Little Things That Matter
This week, we fixed and added animations, including a burning animation for the boar at the Veteran Berserker and for the bear at the elf boss.
We’ve also resolved soft locks in events, including "Tell about the visions" and "The Three Graves." The epic bug with infinite camera shaking during a pause has been fixed, too. Imagine it as one big earthquake that has finally come to an end. Additionally, some localization bugs were fixed; for example, the text no longer “runs away” in the Polish language version.
Final touches. Thank you for helping us find bugs and for sharing your feedback. Each fix is a small step towards a big goal: making our game even better and more engaging. Your messages and bug reports are not simply valuable; they are our fuel in moving forward!
How About Some Chit-Chat?
Andrew aka Innrey, the founder of RedBoon, is here again.
So, our work on improving Knock On The Coffin Lid continues—perfection knows no limits.
In the previous diary, I mentioned that we’re focusing on the roadmap for the project’s future. I hope to share the plan with you in the coming weeks. But before that, we’ve prepared a short survey to find out what, in your opinion, should be the top priority in the development of Knock On The Coffin Lid:
By the way, do you remember our last poll on the final battle? You’re probably curious about the results. A total of 670 players voted, and the vote distribution was the following:
Make two separate final battles - 338 votes
I agree with the decision to add a “Skip the fight” button and move on without defeat - 185 votes
Other - 147 votes
As you can see, now we have another challenging task ahead of us. And what’s in the 147 “other” responses? They are recommendations and opinions not only on the mechanics of the final battle but also on many other battles. It was really engaging! Thank you.
A bit of sad news: our game will have a new community manager. Marfonia, who you’ve grown to like, is moving on to a new big project to grow and reach new heights! Let’s wish her good luck! We’ll look forward to seeing her at our online hangouts. We’ll introduce the new team member to you very soon.
Thank you for staying with us and helping make KOTCL better. We don’t just listen to your feedback—we examine and discuss it! We have many exciting plans, so stay tuned and keep an eye out for our news. And yes, we’re looking forward to your ideas in the comments. Perhaps it is your suggestion that will inspire the next big update!
