First update incoming!


Heya, I’m working as fast as I can on the first update on the game. After seing the same issue over and over again I can state that the combat system, even if it’s simple, confuses the players.

I’m working on making it easier to understand for first time players, both adding better info to the temporary help section in the menu, but also making sure that the combat is better explained in the game and with the UI.

The next version will feature a rework of the pickaxe, since I didn’t like how the old system worked. This will also make the resources have a chance to spawn “too early” if you’re lucky, instead of having a static level restriction on the resources.

More info when I’m closer to releasing the update. Hopefully in a week or two!

Cheers,
Joccish

Hello followers! I just wanted to tell you that a new version of Necken is available, 0.14.2.2, with some battle UI updates and other smaller fixes. Would love to hear what you think =)

Preparing for release! Getting real nervous - there's less than a month to the release of Necken, and there's just way too much stuff that needs to be done. Feel free to join the discord if you want to be a part of the release: https://discord.gg/JGV5Gkg

It's been a long time since I updated anything on GameJolt, but I finally had the time to update the demo of Necken! A lot of new stuff that you could try if you like roguelikes =D

Cheers,
