Hi everyone
We are back with another update that mainly addresses general hiccups and bugs during the tactical pause, UI feedback, and enhanced player experience by testing character voices from our dear Lords and Heroes.
We are still getting lots of feedback through our questionnaire and Discord. Thanks for that. Our focus for the past weeks and a few to come are to polish and improve the content already in the game while we are working on the SAVE GAME system, which is highly requested.
We also merge from Unreal 4.27 to Unreal 5. However, this build is still made in UE4, but we expect our next update to be in UE5. (a bit nerdy info. We know) ːsteamhappyː
Patch Notes for build 0.6.22.6
