The cause of the server lag in Pre-Release V1


Hey everyone! Great news, to all those who were playing Pre-Release V1 earlier!

I found out the cause of the server lag and disappearing objects etc.

The randomly generated world which is 10,000x10,000 pixels huge needs lots of objects to fill it, and when the host needs to send over so much data (where each new randomly generated object is), it starts lagging badly and causes issues.

I did a little debugging and found out the host was sending 115 KB/s worth of data. That means 7 MB every minute, which is completely unacceptable.

Therefore, I’ve decided to make a huge decision. The game’s world size will be smaller, therefore needing lesser objects, therefore sending over lesser data.

I am sorry for the inconvenience. A patch will be released either later today or tomorrow.

Fan art for Foolish I'm feeling kinda better so I drew this

Today I was setting up the location of the first boss. His name is "Father" and he is the first of the Patagonians. His task is to guard the road to the House.🛡🗡 Bookmark pre-launch page🔖🔖🔖

Runestones: from concept to in-game model🗿

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

Demonstration of the spells and their effects :)!
