V0.18.0 is now live

The latest version of RuneSage adds cutscenes that play after each crystal is completed, as well as at the end of the game when the storm shield is completed. As well as helping drive the story along, this also significantly improves immersion in the game world as it makes the purpose of collecting the crystals more obvious.

The full list of changes since V0.17.0 is as follows:

  • Added cutscenes after completing each crystal.
  • Added cutscene after completing the crystal shield.
  • Added more in-game help from the NPCs.
  • Added a "How to play" section to the in-game menu.
  • Improved pattern matching of rune shapes.
  • Improved crystal shield graphics.
  • Improved crystal shield transitions.
  • Improved scroll text.
  • Improved performance during lightning strikes.
  • Improved performance when loading levels.
  • Improved strength of the iceball spell.
  • Improved behaviour of ice spells when cast on lava.
  • Improved layout of the in-game menu.
