Hello, Warriors!

https://indiearenabooth.de/gamescom2021/games
You will be able to play a demo of Kingshunt throughout the entire week of the Gamescom and we also have various streams and other events planned! We will share more information as we get closer to the event, but there are a few things we can share right now:
Gameplay Stream - Wednesday, August 25, 9 PM CET
Join us as we play Kingshunt at the start of the Steam event. Live on Steam, Twitch, and YouTube. A bunch of developers will be joining the stream to answer questions from the community.
What’s New in This Test:
If you didn’t play in the June Beta a couple of months ago, a great place to get started with the new changes is by watching this video:
Since the Beta Weekend, we have been working hard on bringing more content to the game as well as rebalancing the existing elements:
New Rune menu
With the new rune system, we have also added a bunch of new runes to play with! Another major update is the Rune Power multiplier which increases the strength of your character’s abilities, gives characters ways to grow during the match, and rival stronger minions and towers.
Gamemode Balancing
We have addressed your feedback from the Beta Weekend and the heroes and NPC’s have been rebalanced. For example, Prosecutor, a very popular, but overpowered all-rounder, now received a slightly different damage profile and range to fit better with the tank role, still delivering enough power in the melee combat.
Manual AI upgrades have been removed and now all of your units in the field will get stronger over time from the experience in the battlefield.
Utilities
We have also introduced new utilities and loadout customization to play with! Now players can unlock new towers and spells and add them to their loadouts to find new ways to play the game.
New utilities
Attacker:
- Bomb utility that destroys every structure, trap, and unit in its radius.
- Breacher minion that targets the nearest structure, group of operators, or Guardian and destroys them.
Defender:
- Payload health regen aura
- Commander minion summon to protect a tower
- Barricades can now be built freely anywhere
Other Improvements
It would not be a new test without fixing a bunch of issues and bugs or introducing some smaller usability improvements as well. Expect improvements to general stability, playable maps, UI, in-game settings, and ping markers to name a few.
Congratulations for making it through the whole thing, usually no one gets to the end of the memo. That's all we had in store, for now, we will be sharing more information about events during the Steam Gamescom Event on our social media as we get closer to the event.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to reach out to us on any of our Social Media accounts or Discord. We would love to hear your thoughts about the demo!
Looking forward to seeing you at the Kingshunt Demo!
