It's that time again! A new update is in works for the game and it just went live on the Beta branch. Starting with Beta 1.2.1 and up till the 1.3 release we're going to see the following improvements:
- Rebinding keys
- End game level balancing
- Different ending scenarios based on the way you defeat the final boss
- New items
- The Summoner's class
Of course, just as with the last betas bugs will be squashed! As for the new class added to the game, Summoner, this brings the ability to summon creatures to do your bidding. You won't have much direct control over the summoned characters but you will be able to interact with them and request it gives you an item they were hording (if they want). Most of the time they will engage enemies and heal you when they deem it right. This feature is still being worked on and won't be available in beta 1.2.1 but will drop as soon as we get the keybinding feature right.
Head on to the discussion forums for more details.
P.s. there's a small bonus for those with a Mac. If you switch to the Mac_Test branch you will be able to download and play the game on a Mac! It's on par with the 1.2 release and will be updates as soon as 1.3 drops!
