Well, hello there!
I thought I should inform you on some things we are working on.
The next update 0.5.5, will be larger than the previous ones and focus mainly on levels and the arenas.
Knockback
First of all we will change and tweak how the knockback effects you. The speed will be a lot more even (not as fast at the beginning and as slow at the end). We will also limit your ability to counter the pushing effects by moving in the opposite direction. Together these two elements make the actual knockbak a lot more dangerous especially when you reach about 30 health.
Levels
We now have three levels in total; one of which is completely new! We've also done major reworks on an existing one.
"The Fairy ring", will change name to "The Clearing" and will now be set in a Nordic Forest in the very late autumn (instead of a midsummer day as was first intended). The mechanics here will be a large amount of destructible objects scattered randomly across the arena.
This means they will only work as cover at the start of the fight, leaving you completely unprotected in the later stages (a perfect opportunity to bring your own cover with you, for example a Rockpillar)
Other stuff
We will of course make lots of little tweaks, general bug-fixes and spell-balancing as well but I feel those things are more expected with regular updates.
Playdates will continue on Tuesdays & Thursdays 17:00-18:00 (5pm-6pm) (UTC+01:00) but we are thinking about extending these to be able to play with more of you who might be busy sleeping, working and such during these hours.
Please check out our forum and let us know what you think!
Hope to see you in the arena! (in the lava, trapped by a rockpillar)
