It is with great pleasure that I announce a new update for Ebony Spire: Heresy, the 1 Year Anniversary Update! It’s a content and feature update that will drop on Steam (and itch.io) before November 2018. It’s a collection of the most requested features and quality of life improvements that people have been asking for the entire time the game was live, with a few bonuses sprinkled here and there.
Main features and changes for this update:
- Full mouse support for the game: This has been the most requested feature since day one. I heard you loud and clear. Movement, Menu, Actions and Interactions will be available to your pointer.
- Auto-equip items in the inventory when a new game starts: Many players were confused about not being able to damage enemies on their first few runs because they had no idea how to access and use the inventory.
- The second most requested change for the game was the ability to not start FACING THE WALLS in Infinite_Mode.
- A way to select which items you want to pickup from the ground if more than one are available. Or see details about those items.
- Improved dungeon textures: To quote a piece of feedback I received “main dungeon visuals are boring, while portals you visit are pretty cool”. No more, dungeons look better and will be more interesting.
