D0.40 Update 2 released!


It’s been a while since the last update. Summer ended up just a hectic as spring. Regardless, I worked on a new update. This is primarily a lot of fit and finish work, fixing some issues and improving some aspects. I’ve also done some optimizations to northbridge so it works faster and remove the WebView2 component (since it’s no longer necessary). The links on the “Information” menu will simply open the sites on your browser. Thus, all of the mirrors will have one package that is smaller. Also, this update brings the overhauled Crystal Caves as well.  

Here’s the changelog: 

Game 

  • FPS Sync turned on by default. 

  • Overhauled Crystal Caves. 

  • Consolidated and re-designed the map. 

  • Re-worked the battles to accommodate this. 

  • Tweaked the ration of smaller squads to large ones. 

  • Updated renderer. 

  • Added hints for the game mechanics. 

  • Tweaked and/or fixed some of the text. 

  • Tweaked the accuracy of the squadron. 

  • Tweaked the accuracy of Ramming Punch. 

  • Tweaks to the crash report system. 

  • Minor balance to the Assassin. 

  • Reduced the number of items to cache. 

  • Fixed a bug where the text for "Guardian Angel" isn't showing. 

Northbridge 

  • It will now show if the launcher is checking the game's files at startup. Reduces the time from the splash screen to the launcher UI. 

  • File checking is skipped when the game is launched from the launcher (instead of the shortcut in the Jump List). 

  • Performance and memory usage improvements. 

  • Removed the WebView component as it is no longer necessary. 

  • The shortcuts under the "Information" menu will simply open the pages on the default browser.

It's still pretty early work, but I am working on making the UI more dynamic and sleek. Including faces changing depending on their HP.

While I'm preparing August's Monthly Sync, I'm preparing a Trello board for the game. You can see what I'm working on here. https://trello.com/b/CjFyzH50/immortal-sins-game-development Pardon my dust, while I'm getting this up and running.

Wrote a tool that installs the game's dependencies. That means Northbridge will always use the latest version of the Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime.

There may have been a few unfortunate technical delays, but the First Chapter of Clossure is now fully released on Steam!

And that's not all!

Added achievements. Because why not?

Finally gave the actors some idle animations + animated shadows. Still gotta animate enemy.

Also new robot dog party member and switching elements now exists.

btw @Alpherisk is helping me with attack animations for the combination skills.

Waz zis? An overhauled map? Yes. Coming soon.

Enjoy a nice dish, get a nice buff. What's not to like?

Here's title intro cutscene + title screen + system options screen.

Two people staring at each other with wrathful hate always makes for the best scenes to conform them to for all eternity. 🤩

Added the option to rebuild the cache. This will clear the cache and then decompress the files from the packages.
