Dev-log #30 - What did we do in 20 days of silence? - 22/05/2026

Hello everyone and welcome back!

It's been a while since we've done a devlog, it's been an interesting couple of weeks.

This period has particularly favored concentration and luckily we have managed to fit a few things in well one after the other.

The first piece of news I bring you today is that between this evening and tomorrow, we'll be releasing an updated version of the stable build. We know it was a barebones build and had some bugs.

Not only have we fixed them, but we'll be releasing a version with a lot of additional content, we've added quests, characters, clothes, weapons... A lake!

Highlights of the new version include:

  • We've added the Follower Creator Station to the village.

  • Followers are "essential", meaning that they can't die; they'll briefly fall to the ground and then return to battle on your side.

  • New animset and execution animations for weapons.

  • The forest has expanded (a lot)

  • Forest has now wild animals (neutral and aggressive too)

  • You can now sleep giving a couple golds to the stable master at the village

  • Gatherable flowers and mushrooms around the forest (for crafting and quests)

  • A new quest place in the forest if you have Sylveth in party

  • A lake

  • A bettered swim component to swim in the lake (for followers too)

  • A river

  • The bridge on the river is back!

  • A new lightning quality overall that will give you a better visual experience

  • Heels are in the game, with a dedicated system

  • Jiggle physic has been bettered on the followers

  • Physics has been added to some clothes, we're working on every piece of item dedicating it time to make it the best possible

There are plenty of fixes too and more changes that I didn't list, these are the most important ones.

This is the biggest update so far so we hope you'll enjoy it!

Please get back to us with your feedbacks and ideas, we've always open to listen to you!

Stay tuned for tomorrow's drop!

A side note for our Noble/Dukes: the complete DLC with the character is almost finished, I'm sure you'll see an important update about it very very soon.

Have a nice weekend!
