Development Updates #7

In the last 2 weeks we were mainly adding new enemies and reworking the UI.

Added:

• [Items] It's now possible to pick up spell or magic weapon directly to the inventory after holding the button for 0,75 seconds.
• [Enemies] Added Harbinger of Death enemy.
• [Enemies] Added small random delay before enemies jump while you are in air to make them feel less robotic.
• [Debuffs] Added system to prevent enemies to get permanently slowed, frozen, feared, charmed, confused, petrified or snared. Now when you apply one of these debuffs on enemies you need to wait 2.25x of debuff's time to be able to apply it again. For example after applying fear debuff lasting 1 second you will need to wait for 1,25 seconds after the effect ends to be able to apply fear debuff on the same enemy again. It had to be added because with certain spells you could remove all challenge (and fun) by permanently stunning all enemies. You can still do permanent stunning, but there is some skill and spell combo required to do so now. It also encourage to use spells of few different elements at the same time rather than sticking to a single element only.
• [Destroyables] Snail House now can spawn Leech after destroying instead of just Magma Snails.
• [Enemies] Added anticipation effect for all enemies (shiny eyes before attacking).
• [Items] It's now possible to hold the Action key to pick spells and magic weapons to the inventory instead of equipping them.
• [Sounds] Added ladder climbing, shatter and respawn audio.
• [Sounds] Added audio to progress bars.

Changed:

• [UI] Changed design of Perks cards. Now they show all elements and rarities.
• [UI] Reworked enchanting window UI.
• [UI] Reworked changing special spell UI.
• [UI] Reworked Astral Altars (meta progression) UI.
• [UI] Reworked dialog window UI.
• [Sounds] Changed UI click and hover sounds.
• [Sounds] Improved footstep audio.

Fixed:

Stay tuned for the next updates!
