That's right, the game's full release is finally here!


That's right, the game's full release is finally here!

After a long few years, the game is finally complete, and development has concluded.

I'd like to thank everyone that has supported me, all the friends I have made along the way, and those of you who have shown interest in my endeavors.

It means a lot to me to finally be at this point, putting out the the first game I alone have made for the most part, and I'm glad I made it as far as I have.

So what's next?

Naturally, this will be the last major devlog. The only updates that will be put out from this point forward on this game will be patch notes.

Even so, I still have a passion for creating. I'll move on to other (preferably smaller) projects and work with friends to continue creating experiences for people to enjoy. I even have a gameplay prototype for another project in the works at the time of posting.

​A couple of extra little bits about the upcoming release

  • As long as you have the game cleared on any file, you should be able to unlock at least Hard mode when going to the save select screen.

  • Over the three difficulties (Normal, Hard, and Curse), the "canon" name changes.

    • Normal - Aloe

    • Hard - Nettle

    • Curse - Verbena

  • Beating the new difficulties and completing the journal may unlock something special ;)

  • Of the mysterious texts, six are found in their respective regions of Thebryll, three can be dropped anywhere, and one has a special condition for being collected, possibly involving a bush in the middle of the lake.

  • You may also find that some appearances you may have missed under said bush will be accessible after the game has been cleared, as it normally depends on how many fragments you have at the time of visiting.

To those of you who read this far, thank you. Even if this game doesn't get much attention, I'll be happy to know that someone read through all of this.

See you in the next adventure!

Here's my entirely random array of concept sketches for the theoretical kobold game I did over the past couple days. Does this count as #gamedev?

Equipping stuff works, woo

Guess what? I'm one of the members of the upcoming charity event Prismathon happening April 4th through 7th! I'm so excited to be doing this, and I hope to see you guys there!

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

It's been a hot moment since I've posted for #screenshotsaturday. The battle system is nearly complete and your party can level up after them!

Ending and plans for continuing development

​​Mark your calendars, because Rune of Eternity launches in full...

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Full Release Feature Showcase: Hard Mode!

In this mode, you take twice the damage and healing hearts aren't dropped by enemies as an optional extra challenge.

After beating the game, starting a new file will allow you to play in it.
