• Maple Blade v1.44 - 18 September 2026

  An incremental update, based on super-valuable feedback from players at the Chicago Indie Game Showcase (CIGS) 2026! Tuna the cat is now less difficult to catch-- he now has a trust metric that determines whether he comes up to you or runs away. If you aim your sword at him, his trust will be reset and he'll run away, but if you help him, he'll trust you more and more. He also no longer moves while aiming, except in Challenge Mode! Made the Sage Grounds door easier to find, with clearer instructions, a sign, and a trail of leaves that apparently blew in Retooled the Spirits' grid interaction, so now they respond in the same predictable way to all obstacles and tiles Retooled the fireballs, allowing them to be dodged at the last second by striking. Fireballs can also now destroy other Spirits! It's hilarious Drawing your sword no longer resets Maple to facing downward Fixed an issue wher…

• Maple Blade Patch 1.26 - 7 May 2026

  Typos, minor bugfixes & performance optimizations (CPU)

• Maple Blade v1.2 - 3 May 2026

  Added CHALLENGE mode! A harder, more puzzle-like game mode All enemies move while the player aims their sword strikes HP is limited to 3 Player starts game with 0 coins Levels start with 0 chaos Boldy has a special S-Rank challenge Beating Boldy's challenge grants you the new Ward Charm, an ancient Montressor treasure CHALLENGE mode is recommended for a second playthrough. It's much more difficult and methodical, requiring more forethought and route planning. But the Ward Charm is maybe the coolest item in the game, so it's worth it. https://travroot.com/resources/graphics/ezgif-37e871fcf5f7c5d2.gif Other improvements: Graphics improvements, like the new Frog and Lilypad animations!
