- Patch Notes 1.13 - More Randomizer Options - 12 May 2025
Patch Notes 1.13 New Randomizer Options With this patch we are adding 3 highly requested randomizer options that you can opt into when starting a new campaign, which are as follows: Random Passives: When promoting or class changing, units will receive a random passive in the slot for that class tier Random Abilities: When promoting or class changing, units will receive a random ability in the slot for that class tier Random Loot: When killing an enemy with loot or looting a chest, that loot will be randomized I think these are our most fun randomizer additions yet, can't wait to see what goofy things happen in your campaigns with these now available! I am a big fan personally of random loot in particular, as it really changes the meta progression in significant ways. Changes Significantly improved performance optimization in base and premap, particularly for lower end devices Significan…

- Patch Notes 1.10 - 6 April 2025
Patch Notes 1.10 Fixed an issue where the new options from patch 1.09 were loading their functionality in reverse (auto fast forward was loading the longer levelups option state and vice versa) Fixed an issue where the water in chapter 25 could be teleported onto Fixed an issue with the Ravager Winds snaring upgrade applying blind Fixed an issue with the Astral Reckoning snaring upgrade not applying Fixed an issue with the Breaker snaring upgrade not applying Fixed an issue with the Lightning Strike snaring upgrade not applying Fixed an issue with the Enchant Weapon cleansing upgrade not functioning Fixed an issue with chapter 12 not ending upon defeating the route boss (the big one) - which could also then lead to a crash.

- Patch Notes 1.09 - Some Small New Features - 3 April 2025
Patch Notes 1.09 Took a small ~1 day hiatus from bug fixing to add some of the most highly requested features, and will be returning so fixing things up now! Hope you have fun with the new additions! New Options There is now a toggleable option to make it so your levelups don't auto advance. Stare at them as long as you like! There is now a toggleable option to make it so fast forward is automatically on. It is still changeable with a click, but for any case where fast forward is appropriate, it will begin on with this option toggled.

- Patch Notes 1.08 - 31 March 2025
Patch Notes 1.08 Small patch today with one very important fix for the final chapter as I work on better itemizing what I need to get through this week and planning out some work looking further ahead. Fixed an issue with the final chapter where the game could get stuck without completing the level Fixed an issue where illuminate wasn't applying its buff immediately The priest enemy in chapter 10 with incorrect stats is now properly scaled Fixed a tooltip issue with the elemental ring Features coming soon I'm still prioritizing bug fixing for now but there are a couple small options I'm starting work on to add this week that have been heavily requested. These are not live in THIS patch but are coming soon. Option to have levelups NOT auto advance so you can have more time to process the info Option to have fast forwarding be on by default without needing to click
- Patch Notes 1.07 - 29 March 2025
Patch Notes 1.07 Fixed an issue where movement range could persist through taking an action and cause units to run in place in odd ways and potentially crash the game in certain circumstances. This was one of the more commonly experienced game breaking issues so if you ran into something similar there is a really strong chance it was this. Changed the text of the kindling ring to better suit its effect Fixed an issue with enemies not spawning with correct stats when the random enemies customization was live Fixed an issue with the radiance ring applying blind to allies in AOE Restoration spells Fixed an issue where class changing could override menu functionality and crash the game Fixed an issue where over 100 xp could be gained, resulting in a lost levelup Fixed a crash where poisoned units with mastery below 0 could cause ability scaling to break. Poison no longer reduces Mastery bel…
- Patch Notes 1.06 - 28 March 2025
Patch Notes 1.06 Fixed an issue that allowed you to take attacks and movement actions before the unit made it to their proper tile, leaving them out of place and glitched if animations were off or a movement option was used. This was causing a majority of unit desync issues and a variety of crashes on maps with 'jump' tiles. Fixed an issue with pet commands not applying their effects with animations off Fixed an issue where counter attacking with animations off was missing certain on-hit effects Fixed an issue where movement grids weren't properly clearing when a frame was skipped, leading to units disappearing Fixed an issue where stormrider casted offmap could crash the game
- Thank you for great launch | Patch Notes 1.05 - 28 March 2025
It's day 4 now of Dark Deity 2 being out, and I just want to take a second to say a huge thank you to everyone playing the game! It’s been a blast hearing about the story choices you’re making, the unit builds you're experimenting with, and the team comps you're theorycrafting. Your feedback, bug reports, and support have been making a big impact. It’s also been so rewarding to see the game hit New & Trending on Steam and already pass 260 reviews. Thank you for helping make that happen! I just pushed Patch 1.05 (my fifth patch in four days) as I’ve been hard at work to stay on top of your reports. I am doing my best to get through everything and you've all been immensely helpful already. I’m prioritizing the highest-impact bugs (like crashes and freezes) first, then I’ll be diving deeper into more general feedback. Please keep the reports coming; every message helps, and I’m doing what…
- Patch Notes 1.04 - 27 March 2025
Patch Notes - Hotfix 1.04 -Fixed an issue where phantom units from the class tree could persist off the map, which led to a variety of different issues that seemed like they might be coming from something else (most notably, unit deaths with the unit not actually dying, some strange enemy targeting, and the controller unit cycling getting bugged out) -Fixed an issue where battlesaves could lead to the post-level decision cutscene being skipped (going to have some more testing for this once build is live, could require another fix tomorrow to catch all possibilities) -Fixed an issue where 'cleansing' upgrades didn't function correctly if taken as the second upgrade. -Fixed an issue where some abilities 'cleansing' upgrade didn't function at all -Fixed an issue where weapons in the shop could become unsellable past a certain point -Fixed an issue where campaign customization could select…
