- Status Update - 27 January 2025
Last week I mentioned I would post a road map for the coming weeks/months. I would like to take a moment to do this now. At the moment, this is my list of things I want to get added to the game: • Bounty Board / Random events tied to bounty hunting • Prison and Courtroom areas for crime related random events • Profile Customization / Cosmetic rewards • Election Process / features for those elected • Enemy factions / quest line for hostile elected ruler • Mercenary Synergies / mercenary balance around player verse player combat • Raid Content • Additional crafting options • Bestiary / Game Manual • Better Tutorial / New Player Help January As of now, the bounty system and a few of the random events are ready. I was hoping I would have more complete and ready, but this is not the case. Player verse player content is tied to the bounty system, so I will work to get mercenary combat balance…
- v.0.0.7.3 - 20 January 2025
Reverted a couple changes regarding cooldowns. The mailboxes should be persistent now when offline. Also fixed a crash when accepting a quest, which was tied to receiving a certain quest before unlocking the map expansion. I was hoping to release a few of the random events, but due to errors, I am delaying the release until it is more stable. I just wanted to take a moment to express my thanks for those who have been supporting me throughout this game development journey. The last couple weeks have been a bit discouraging due to a corruption of some game files, and a large amount of work still needing to be done. I have noticed that I am burning out, and I've been looking for excuses not to work on this game. The scope of the game has grown more than I initially planned, and it is overwhelming me at this rate. This being said, I will be working on a new roadmap for the next two months.…
- v.0.0.7.2 - 11 January 2025
- Attempted to fix a bug that caused cooldowns to not reset properly due to the new year. Please notify if cooldowns do not reset after this patch. - Added automated player characters. Their functionality is limited at the moment, but they are in the game. - Coming soon, random events and reputation related features. I am excited to have these added to the game. These things are needed before I can add the end game features. I do have a long list of things I still need to work on, but I feel these features need to be added before I start tweaking other things.

- v.0.0.6.6 - 3 December 2024
Sorry for the long delay in updates. After a vacation, it was hard for me to get back into the routine of game development again. This was mainly due to working on certain game features related to dungeons and player verse player. Because of this, I had to pivot to other things, working on quests and rewards. I also want to implement profile customization in the future. It seems I need to work on the easier tasks before I start tackling the harder ones. Added: - Quest giver at starting location now has all quests coded into the game. After receiving a mythic contract, you can continue doing quests for him from a randomized list so you can continue earning rewards if you so choose. - Dice item gives a 200% merit buff to a random location. Dice item has a very low chance of spawning at Gambit Keep. Drops rates may need some readjusting due to another item being added next patch when ready.

Regarding the games development: Currently working on adding a catacomb area that is similar to the executioner's challenge. This will involve boss fights, which are requiring time to design and implement. After the catacombs are released, group raids will be the next focus. Player vs player combat and reputation events are also on my list, but won't be addressed till later in the month. Progress has been slow this month due to personal reasons. Thank you for your support.
