- 0.3.2 Patch - 21 January 2024
Happy new year everyone and I am so sorry for the lack of updates! College last semester was insane for me and my free time was greatly neutered. However, we are back this year with a decent sized patch! - Added the rarities to the capes and caps that were missing it. - Fixed some of the capes being attached to the head instead of the body as they were suppose to be. - Fixed Titant II's stats. - Added in an option to cancel any Slayer Quest! (This took forever haha). - Nightshot II has been spotted! Good luck, he is EASILY the hardest boss in the game right now! - Explore a little bit of the upcoming World 3! All the way into the new town which has very little to it, but is still a cozy place regardless! I want to thank you all for your patience with me. World 3 is currently in development and I cannot wait to show it off to all of you once it's finished! Stay tuned and game on!
- Achievements Not Working!!! - 6 July 2023
Good morning everyone! It wasn't until today that I realized that Steam had added my achievements to my game earlier than I wanted them to be there! I didn't want them to be there yet as they aren't correctly implemented yet into RPG Maker (The software I use to make the game) Now that they're live on the game I will be working even harder to try to figure out how to get them working. I have no clue how long it will take me, but I'll find out as soon as I can!!! My apologies everyone and I will post an update once I get them working! Have a great day everyone.

Make sure you are properly prepared before taking on such a formidable opponent!!!

- Update/Apology - 1 July 2023
Good morning everyone! As we all know, the Summer Sales are here, and I haven't finished the new update yet. I plan to have the update done this week, I just need to finish the last few bits of the new dungeon and than I'll be sending the game to my playtesters to check for bugs and glitches so that the update is much better than the last big update! Due to missing some of the Steam Summer sales for the new update I plan to do a small giveaway sometime in the near future, though I'm still not sure of what, how, or when. But I'll be sure to keep everyone updated on when it happens! Thank you all so much for the extreme patience. Next time you see a message here it will be the patch notes for Update 0.3.0!!! And I can't wait to show it off! It's HUGE!!! See y'all than and much love!

- 0.3.0 Update Progress! - 27 February 2023
Hello everyone! It's been a while now since update 0.2.0 was released and it was a rocky update for sure with SO many bugs. This time around I'm working very hard to make sure that 0.3.0 won't be nearly as rough of an update! And to give a small update to the work that's been going on, here are some teaser images of some upcoming locations! I thank you all for your patience with me for this update and I assure you it will be worth the wait! And more teasers will be shared as update 0.3.0 gets closer and closer!
- I'm an idiot - 10 January 2023
Fixed EVEN more game breaking bugs that I keep missing. To make up for all of these patches that I had to send out today I decided to add in a little extra today and make it so that ALL Slayer bosses have a 100% drop chance for their rare materials rather than a 50% chance. I also found out that the coding in RPG Maker for my "Element specific weapons" Like the Slimy Sword, Buggy Spear, etc, were all wrong and I couldn't find a way to make them work properly. So instead I changed them All to have a different secondary effect rather than more damage to specific enemy types. I changed their descriptions to describe the new effects. HOPEFULLY next time I release any updates here will be for 0.3.0 news rather than more game breaking bugs. Again I am so sorry everyone, have a lovely day.

It has now been over a week since I launched Mark of the Void on Steam and I have been very very proud of how well the launch has gone! Thank you to all of you who spend the time to look at my small game and give it a try! My gratitude goes out to all of you, and, as a way of saying thanks, I want to give you all a small peek of what's to come! Tim's troubles have only just begun, his trek deeper into the planet will bring about more dangerous and vicious beasts. In fact, my scanners seem to be picking up something, something large and highly aggressive. My advice? Watch yourself and be prepared.
