Hello Crafters!
The new Bosses have arrived to conclude the Mountain! This is the end of this area to start the next portion of the content with a brand new area, different monster mechanics and other challenges to face! 2 new characters will come throughout this new map and we hope you are excited to now their profession and mechanics.
We also have some news about future updates, which I have written a bit about on the Next Steps section after the Patch Notes. So if you want to know more, make sure to check it out at the end of this note.
Now let's begin with this update's information.
Patch Notes - v0.5.2.0
New
Mountain
- New Stages added;
- Mountain Area Boss added;
- New Challenge Boss added;
- New Adventurer to face in battle.
Village
- New Levels for some buildings;
- New decorations for some buildings as they level up, specially for the Fisherman's Hut that didn't have any before.
Character Selection Screen
- Each character will have a Challenge Level indicator when selecting them. This will provide further depth to the player on what to expect from each character's gameplay and mechanics, and the challenge required to achieve their potential.

Adjustments
Chiselo, the Sculptor
Deity's Resemblance, Wood Material
- Reduced the Knockback effect of the Holy Pillars to avoid pushing enemies in undesired directions.
Adjustments
Stages
- Greatly increased the amount of gold from Living Peak Challenge Stage;
- Adjusted the layer of Enemy attack indicators, as some of them were competing with player buff areas.
Village
- Reduced the overall Gold requirement for several building levels prior to the end of Mountain challenges;
- Town Square level change: Secrets Dealer has been delayed as we are redesigning what they will offer.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed some enemies so they wouldn't be stuck on their animations outside of the screen, to avoid players have to "hunt them down" to finish a Stage.
Next Steps:
Now that the Mountain area is complete, we will begin development of the next area (which I won't spoil the name right now as you will soon see it in-game) and the 9th character of the game, this guy over here!
Starting with the next update, which will include the beginning of the new area and the 9th character, we will introduce a Beta Branch, so players will be able to do some play testing of the new content before it goes live to the Public Branch. We will give more information about the Beta Branch on our Discord closer to the release of the new update, so if you are looking to be a part of it, come join us: Join here. Each update will be available for around a week before it goes live and we will always make an announcement about it on our server. The Beta Branch new content will be English Only.
We are also planning a few more additions in the near future to spice things up (Stoverick approves this)! So keep an eye for it!
