• Minor Hotix - 16 December 2023

  Fixes - Fixed Evolved Staff and Vermillion Staff damage.

• Invincibility Frames Introduced! - 15 December 2023

  This update may come as a bit of a surprise to some of you but we want to stress that this update comes after a long window of testing and thinking through which best way to incorporate and combine seemingly contradicting feedback about the inclusion of i-frames. The inclusion of i-frames does not go against our design philosophy, which is to try and respect player expression and give them various options when deciding which tools to best tackle the Omnistructure with. In this respect, the update includes i-frames as a way to avoid damage in combat. There are items and builds that offer other benefits at the cost of losing i-frames. In this way we have opened a fork in playstyles by offering players an option between reaction and positioning when it comes to avoiding damage. This is not a hard line, as veteran players know that blocking, jumping, crouching, and many abilities already of…

• Major Update 21st November - 21 November 2023

  Since release we’ve been constantly gathering feedback from every front available to us. A noticeable recurring theme has been a somewhat volatile progression experience while surmounting various challenges in the game mostly deriving from a lacking reward system. This update introduces a feature that will provide players with a consistent feedback loop in the form of a traditional leveling system. The previous gear upgrading system has been slightly tweaked to make room for this new change. We’ve been thoroughly testing the player experience with the addition of this new system and the feedback has been extremely positive. This change will also provide a more intuitive way to grow and surmount challenges as they come your way, while de-prioritizing micromanagement of less obvious resources and mechanics. And finally, with the addition of a levelling system we've even further emphasized…

• Major Update October 7th - 7 October 2023

  Hello! We've passed the half a year mark and the game has been going through a lot of improvements in the meantime! I'll quickly recap everything that we have done. Movement and Controller We have increased the character rotation speed, fixed floaty movement, fixed a ton of jank in the movement animations as well as removed transitional animations between two movement states, which in turn gave us far more responsive movement. Increased character rotation speed also greatly improved the control over the character for controller users. Two new settings under General & UI now affect movement greatly and those are an option to disable strafing movement while there is no Lock-On target and for attacks to follow directional input instead of camera input. Another thing we greatly improved on was controller support. We added several new presets, as well as the option to bind multiple keys to s…
