Hi everybody!
This game's very much still alive, and, since it's Christmas, I'm putting out an update to the Demo, to let everybody play with the new toys!
The Demo is currently set up to allow players to build any of the new weapons for super-duper cheap. There are nearly 70 weapons to unlock, currently, and this list just keeps getting longer!
Other features of note:
Various optimizations and minor bug-fixes galore.
A lot of little changes to the UIs (for example, you can sort your Inventory to find a Dual-Wield Weapon that uses Power).
Arena can now access all of the new weapons.
Arena now has access to most of the new enemy types.
Lots of changes to sub-systems and gameplay. For example, setting things on fire is much prettier, and you can freeze objects and creatures in the world.
Overall, the game's starting to look nearly Done. I have to review the existing difficulty ramps a bit more, make some adjustments to crafting values (i.e., decide if players can just grind to get X, or need to defeat a Boss to get X, that kind of thing) and I'd like to add even more content to the full game. I'm really getting close to release, but I decided a while ago that I'd rather spend the extra time and be happy with it rather than push it out too early.
I know that the chances of a lot of people trying out the Demo at this time are pretty low, but if you do, please let me know if you liked the changes!
