It's our favourite time of the year again, and with that I've got some new fun gamemodes for everyone to enjoy for a little while as we lead up to the Into the Abyss Expansion launch!
April Fools Event Gamemodes
We always like to release a temporary gamemode for everyone to enjoy to celebrate April Fools day. This year, I've decided to not add one gamemode, but instead I'm giving you five! Yep, five temporary gamemodes.
New Temporary Gamemodes
- Clicker Mode* - Melvor Idle is now more Idle than ever with this new gamemode! How fast can you beat Bane before your mouse dies?
- Hardcore Ancient Relics Speedrun - Ancient Relics mode, but faster and Hardcore! Requires Atlas of Discovery Expansion.
- Hardcore Ancient Relics Combat Only Speedrun - Combat only version of Ancient Relics Speedrun mode! Requires Atlas of Discovery Expansion.
*Only available in English language.
Returning Temporary Gamemodes
These gamemodes from prior April Fools updates have returned.
- Hardcore Adventure Speedrun - Adventure Mode, but faster and Hardcore!
- Hardcore Combat Only Speedrun - Combat only Speedrun mode.
These Gamemodes are available to play until 1 May 2024.
Quality of Life Updates
We've got some Quality of Life additions for everyone as well:
- You can now delete Items from the Quick Equip menu. Toggle delete mode by clicking the red trash icon within the menu itself.
- [AoD] You can now delete Cartography Maps. This is done from the Map Creation menu within Cartography at the bottom.
- You can now disable the "Double Click" actions for equipping items, burying bones and opening items within the Bank. These settings are found within the Bank itself under the Cog icon.
- Don't forget you can still lock an Item in the Bank which will disable the Double click action for that specific Item if you don't want the setting turned off globally.
- Added 2 new Save Slots
- Bank Tabs and the Shop Header will now always remaining at the top of the screen when you scroll down.
Expansion Toggling
You can now toggle which Expansions are loaded. This is done via the Cog menu in the top left of the character select screen.
- This requires a Melvor Cloud account to see, and the setting is synchronised between all platforms Melvor Idle is available on.
- Be cautious with this Setting, as loading a save without an Expansion loaded will DELETE ALL PROGRESS FOR THAT EXPANSION.
We've also began implementation of Steam Cloud support for Local Saves. This will be tested over the next few days and will then be enabled when we're happy with how it works.
