Version D0.42 released!


​It's been a while since the last update. There was quite a lot stuff to take care of (both for the game and in real life). Much like the previous update, it brings small but substantial updates to the game. This time around, it's engine upgrades and a refresh of the battle UI. Engine wise, I slip-streamed some technical updates (which, sadly, also broke the saves), but should improve the stability of the game. In addition, the launcher got an overhaul. The launcher is now compiled with NativeAOT, which means far faster launch times and better memory usage. The last thing is the introduction of a new feedback system: Pressing Ctrl-Shift-F will bring up a new feedback widget. This should make it easier to send in feedback.

As for the stuff I was working on: I can't say much at the moment (yet). But I can say this: It has morphed into a different thing that I wasn't planning. Once it's ready, I'll let you know.

Changelog:

Game:

  • Technical upgrades in the engine, for better stability.

  • The crash screen has been updated.

    • A button to copy the error trace to the clipboard has been added.

    • A button to restart the game has been added.

    • Visual updates.

  • The Bug Report option in the title was replaced by the new Feedback widget (opens with Ctrl-Shift-F).

  • Updated the battle UI.

Starboard Platform (formerly Northbridge)

  • Ported over to Avalonia UI and compiled with NativeAOT.

    • Brings massive performance and memory usage improvements.

    • The game is also smaller (40MB by Starboard, compared to 100+MB that Northbridge consumed).

Implementing Armor Corrosion. This put quite a dent in the target's armor for a short time.

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

A small teaser for the next tech test.

While I was busy with my personal life, I've been trying to figure out the aesthetic of this game and since the hourly soundtrack is made in Microsoft Music Producer (an old Windows 98 program) I've decided to make the UI retro stuff inspired :) - Martin

A bit of an old but goodie coming back: Quick Load! In an upcoming update, you can jump back to where you left off with a push of a button.

¡Antes del próximo recado, la familia de Ciro debe sentarse a comer !

Pero falta su papá. Que sujeto más extraño...

Before the next errand, Ciro and his family must sit down to eat !

But his dad is missing. What a strange man...

It's pretty early, but here's a look at a mob manager, handling the enemies in the game. The code streamlines the programming of the enemies. Hopefully, I can expand it to more useful ways.

Overhauls on the way.

Welcome back to Esmarna XP!!!! There are new things about this game I would like to talk about! I'm officially BACK to making this game! (more info in the article)

Done some improvements to the backup system. Even added an icon to let you know that it's working.
