Exactly one year ago we opened the gates to our little world, and your creativity has filled it with unforgettable adventures ever since. To celebrate 12 months of map-making we are bringing the heat of the Inferno!
First of all, we want to thank every single one of you who has played, shared, discussed, or sent feedback about The Storyteller. You are awesome!
Patch 0.3.0 expands the game with a brand new biome, a dark and formidable class, deeper customization tools, and plenty and gameplay improvements.
Ready? Let’s dive into the details!
🌋 New Biome: Inferno
The fifth biome is here — Inferno — a scorching landscape where fire and darkness rule. Create your own inferno tales with this massive content drop:
8 fiery new Ground Textures
7 brand-new Enemies
25 unique Demon NPCs
50+ new Design Elements
6 new Music
Perfect for your darkest, most epic campaigns yet.
😈 New Class: Demonborn
Tap into the forbidden power of the Inferno with the Demonborn, a high-risk, high-reward mage class. Drawing strength from their own life force, Demonborns unleash devastating area-of-effect attacks and drain the life from their enemies.
They burn bright — but at what cost?
🎨 Expanded Custom Elements
Your world, your rules. We’ve expanded the list of elements you can customize by uploading your own images:
Custom Ground – Don’t see the terrain you need? Upload your own!
Custom NPC – Add original characters for your heroes to meet and interact with.
Custom Enemy – Craft your own monsters, assign their stats, and handpick their abilities.
Custom Hero – Want to play as your own character? Now you can. Upload a custom hero icon and set out on a journey that’s truly yours.
🛣️ Polished Grids
We’ve smoothed out the edges of all ground tiles to make maps look more natural. Transitions between roads, grass, buildings, and shorelines now feel seamless.
🏃♂️ Smooth Token Movement
Tokens (Heroes, Enemies, etc.) now move fluidly between tiles instead of instantly jumping from one grid to the next. Small change — huge difference in feel.
💖 Patreon Support
It’s been a year since The Storyteller launched in Early Access, and we’ve kept it entirely free, because creativity should never be limited by your wallet. But if you’d like to support us, we now have a Patreon!
Supporters get early builds, behind-the-scenes looks, and our eternal gratitude. You can find the link in the bottom-right corner of the Main Menu.
🔧 Quality of Life Improvements
Added a Play button when selecting audio in Triggers, so you can preview music and SFX without switching to the Audio Panel.
The Warrior’s “Fearless Pierce” ability now strikes in a cone instead of a line — better coverage, more versatility.
Minor bugfixes and tweaks across the board.
🔥 The flames of the Inferno await — and with them, new stories only you can tell.
Thanks for being part of this journey, and as always...
Happy storytelling!
