Version D0.40 Update 1 released!


Well... It's been a while. Life in the last few months was a bit hectic. I had to put the game on a short hiatus until I got it under control. I did manage to put a substantial number of quality-of-life improvements to both the game and Northbridge. I've also managed to bring over the backup icon from the scrapped R2.07 version of Northbridge. So, you'll know that the backup system is working. Another notable change is a slight re-work of Crystal Caves. That being having smaller squads of enemies added in.

Changelog:

Game

  • Added code to remove actor commands if there are no usable skills.

  • Skills now show their cooldown time (if there is).

  • Added new, smaller squads to Crystal Caves.

  • Added a notification when Drive Arts are available.

  • Rick's Provoke skill adds a buff to Defense.

  • Re-factored enemy code.

  • Implemented additional measures to fix the wrong timing of memory cleanup.

  • Removed the mouse targeting from the battle system.

Northbridge

  • Added an icon that appears in the tray to signify that the backup system is active.

  • Improved the presentation of the Game Master.

  • Tweaked the file checking algorithm to reduce memory usage.

  • Save Manager and Backup system should now handle the Global Data file.

  • Brought back Jump List support.

  • Fixed a bug where information dialogs were rendered behind the Game Master's window.

  • Fixed a bug where the errors do not appear.

  • Removed some hard-coded elements.

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

Added achievements. Because why not?

A small teaser for the next update.

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!

The new package manager UI in action. Works regardless if you skipped the launcher or 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.

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

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

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. 🤩

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.
