IMPORTANT: How to try the beta branch?
Steps to try out the beta branch of the game:
- In your game library right click on "Rogue Empire -> Properties"
- In properties select the "Betas" tab
- On the drop down select the version: beta - Beta testing for next release
This branch has logs enabled to be more verbose so that I get more info from you guys when you sent them to me (this might make it a little more annoying if you get an error).
Note: Because of some critical bug fixes I highly recommend to switch to this beta build. Your save files should transition without a problem. I will attempt to release 0.9.5 by the end of this week or early next week.
New Features
- Portals generated by bosses now will be attempted to be created around them and not under them to avoid being in the same location as the loot dropped by the boss.
- Partially reworked keyboard UI navigation. More to come.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed infamous ring of satiation freeze. Added some safeguard code to hopefully prevent similar situations in the future.
- Fixed several typos.
- Fixed the location of several 1 way portals in the Dawn of Shadows campaign.
Balance
- Negative/bad item enchantments where removed from the game (does not affect items already acquired in a current game).
- Item modifier formula adjusted so you seem more enchanted items on more dangerous dungeons.
- Increased item drop amount across the board. Changed weight of type of items dropped accordingly for balancing purposes.
Other
- Moved the rings subcategory in the inventory from "other" to "armors" as it made more sense when using it.
- Enchanted gear now stands out when picking it up and when looking at them in the inventory. More to come.
- If for any reason your character end up on a none traversable tile, you will now be able to get back to a valid tile.
As always feel free to pop up at discord and discuss with me about whatever you want!
Cheers and happy crawling!
