Hey Strangers,
The time has come to leave Early Access. It's been about 8 months of hard work, fixing bugs, adding QoL, adding items, enemies, levels, areas, bosses, NPCs, and more. With your help, I was able to take it so much farther than I ever imagined when I began.
I've said it before, but I'll say it again. Thank you for playing my game and giving feedback and encouragement. Since I was a little kid I dreamed about making games. And somehow, the dream just never went away as I got older, it always kept simmering in the back of my mind. Bringing this game into existence, and having people actually play it and enjoy it, is a satisfaction a long time coming. The only problem is, now I want it even more. Guess I will have to keep making games.
For this 1.0 update, I've added a feature I've thought about for a long time: Roguelike Mode. It can be accessed right from the main menu. In this mode, the game should feel a little different. In the main mode, the fun is in gathering items and experimenting with items, and trying to perfect your build. In the Roguelike mode, the fun will be a bit more about scrounging what you can, getting by with what you have, and making difficult choices about what direction to take your build.
As for the future, I expect to still update, though not as relentlessly as before. My favorite part of making the game is designing and adding items, so expect some more of those. Also more bug fixes as needed. I have big, big plans. If you enjoy Necrovale, follow me here, on twitter, Discord, or wherever.
