Knock,-knock, adventurers!

We hope that your week was as productive as ours. We released another video diary, so if you missed it, it’s already available here. And don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel to follow the updates!

Spring has almost come into full force. We are sure that many of you have already switched from your winter shoes to something more suitable for traveling through puddles. That will be very handy, as we’ll be returning to the creepy swamps of ours. Try not to fall into the quick mud. It's time to hit the road!

Subduing swampy landscapes

While our technical department’s current work is marked as "Secret", our artists have taken up work polishing some swamp landscapes. We think that everything is turning out rather well and has a nice threatening atmosphere – these swampy waters are best avoided, don’t you think? Because we know, don’t we, where zombies are apt to crawl out of…



An abandoned village can also give you the creeps. But who are we to refuse to travel through abandoned places, right? A place like that is sure to hide within itself a lot of secrets ... as well as treasures!



The cultist who knew too much…

... absolutely doesn’t want to let us go with all that knowledge! Just look at the new tricks he learned to surprise us during the battle. You can't give up, you have to give this gentleman a battle, otherwise the scales may tip to the wrong side.

⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀

Karma bites

By the way, do you remember how not so long ago we told you that we were remaking the karma display? We managed to wrangle up several animations of the process from our animators' desktop. Which snake will you root for during the game?

⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀

What's in Sigismund's box?

Those who often play for Persival’s Gold Digger know how annoying Sigismund can be. He constantly tries to put his hand in your pocket and replenish his treasury. Even though the animations are really good, don't get distracted and don't allow him to fleece you. It might cost you your life and a successful walkthrough!

⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀

Each hero has their own way

Persival, Bjorn and Vanadis have completely different approaches to achieving their goals. And each of them deserves a fitting final to their story.
In addition to the endings for the event lines, our artists are developing personal endings for each of the characters. While we continue to make our way out of the swamps, some of Bjorn’s many endings are already being drawn!



Well, that's it for today! Don't forget to subscribe to our social networks and feel free to ask any questions you might have about our game – we’re always happy to interact with you.

See you in the next diary!

Knock-knock, adventurers!

How was your week? We've had very eventful days, so we can't wait to tell you about everything. Prepare your potion vials, because we're setting off!


Traveler’s first-aid kit

All sorts of things can happen on the road – first you don’t have enough energy, then strength, now health. You rummage through your pockets, and all you find are empty bottles. What do you do now? Don’t you worry! A traveling merchant who you’ll meet on your way can offer you a wide choice of different potions. Don’t be stingy with the gold, and one of these elixirs could save your life!

⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀

In the bandit camp

But one thing that the potions won't save you from is bandits. One careless word – and you’ll get cleaned out. That is, if you're lucky. If you’re not, you might even get into a fight! Just take a look at these fighters sitting around the campfire.

⠀⠀⠀⠀

The flip side of success

In the last diary we showed you Sigismund's new movements. This week our animators have been working on his dark side. Wearing a crown comes with a price, and Sigismund definitely didn't become more attractive after associating with demonic forces. But that won't stop him from moving stylishly in the second phase of the battle, will it?





The endings and the incredible return of the icons

So many different endings of the stories are waiting for you! Our artists still have a lot of work to do, as each ending is unique and requires special attention.

⠀⠀⠀⠀

It's good that there’s always something to distract oneself. To take a break, our artists sometimes divert their attention to polishing the upgrade icons. There aren’t that many of them, but they’re turning out simply wonderful.



And that's far from everything that we've been working on all week. There are still a lot of interesting and incredible things ahead of us, and when the time comes, you’ll be the first to know about them.

Don’t forget to visit our social networks so that you can interact with us and with other players, too.

See you in the next diary!

Knock-knock, adventurers!

We’re glad to see you again in our Friday diary. We hope your week has been as eventful as ours.

We had time to congratulate our dear ladies on March 8 and also worked hard on events and animations.

Well, it's time to dive back into development. Put on the invulnerability armor and grab the firebrothers’ maces – it’s time to hit the road!

Tumbleweeds, tumbleweeds, who knows what you’ll get?

We bet it's become much easier to be in the swamps lately, and now you almost don't want to go to the steppes… Unless you're hunting tumbleweeds! These plants often have something interesting stuck in them. Who knows what you will find? Surely it’s something valuable or at least useful. But only the inhabitants of the steppes can tell you about it more precisely!



Quality vacation with friends

What could be better than meeting up with your friends at a tavern after a hard week's journey, right? That girl at the window seems to be winking at you. Maybe you should ask for the number of her carrier pigeon… Or receive another quest with unbelievable consequences!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hey, where am I being dragged?!

They say that if you get into a sticky wicket, you can end up in a completely unexpected place. This way of traveling is risky, and such tours can cost you all your gold, but if you really want that adrenaline rush, jump into the box below. It’s possible your end point will turn out to be the beginning of a new adventure!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

These graves are quiet… as the grave!

Adventurers all have different quests. Sometimes you need to find a special item, sometimes you negotiate with a troll, but today we’ve ended up in this old cemetery and have to deal with the locals. Here they are, by the way. The crows around here support the ambience as well as make sure that we don't misbehave!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

At Sigismund’s house

Everything is as usual in the castle – you lock horns with the guards over an audience with our best enemy, catch one debuff after another. But now you can also watch Sigismund with great interest while he ponders how to hit you harder!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Of course, this isn’t everything that we did this week. We continue fixing bugs, finishing the storyline, and working on the most important thing – the epic finale of our game.

Don't forget to visit our social networks and support us with likes. We’re happy to answer all of your questions and solve any problems related to our game.

See you in the next diary!

Knock-knock, ladies!

Happy International Women's Day to you! We wish you to stay strong and brave, just like Vanadis. She sends you this postcard to keep your mood up.

We hope this year will go smooth for you, and all the troubles you've ever experienced will be washed away.

Don't drop your crowns, queens!



Yours,

We’ve come back after a short break with an update and lots of development news. If you haven't updated the game yet and don't know what's new in our patch, read this small note here and then go ahead and play!

In the meantime, we'll tell you what has appeared in our inventory, so clean your crow’s beak, stroke your honey badgers and let's go!

Map events galore!

There are so many events that we can’t help but tell you about all of them! A real struggle has broken out in the goblin and orc territories. One after another, the events have received updated art. This respected gentleman is already waiting for us to pay a visit to him – you can’t refuse such a noble person!



This little goblin below has wandered into a foreign territory. We showed you the process of creating this image not so long ago. Today it’s waiting for its turn to be animated. It seems that we’ll see more than one unexpected alliance on the way to the city.



Not a day without animations

With the latest update, we've added a lot of new enemy animations to make moving around the maps more fun. But the work doesn’t end there – there are still many opponents who need to be animated. You’ll come across them in regular runs, and the elite bosses will tickle your senses with their fancy effects.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀

This elf seems to be skilled with all kinds of weapons. His sword looks pretty sharp, doesn’t it? You wouldn’t want to end up on the end of it, would you? How many arrows can you count in his quiver?

⠀⠀




We recently showed you this cheerful shaman with some special techniques. He seems to have gotten better at them since we last met. You definitely don’t want to mess with him now!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀

We are also remaking the glossary and finishing the karma display system. These new features will appear in the game very soon, along with a great many endings for event branches. Here is some final art for them.




That's it for today. Don’t forget to visit our social networks, where we communicate with you and read your suggestions for improving our game.

See you in the next diary!

The days fly by so fast that we don't even notice when it's time for our next meeting. Park your worms, put buckets on your heads and let's go!

Celebration of love in the middle of the week

Valentine's Day is celebrated in the Frontier too, you know! However, not all ways of celebrating Valentine’s are all that nice, one example being the cult’s use of sacrifices.
But we won’t follow the cult’s example. Instead we’re giving you valentine cards for all your needs – you can pick them up in this post. Once again Happy Valentine’s Day!



The carousel of events

Despite the spirit of love floating in the air, we nonetheless continue working on event animations. As always, the animations undergo serious preparation, get polished up and are cut for processing. These guys below (a dentist's dream, by the way!) are ready to be animated, so we’re looking forward to seeing the results.



And this hero from our past diaries is ready to fight with you now. All that’s left to do is to add his animation to the game. By the way, that’s what our programmers are doing right now, so please show your support for them in the comments!

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Champion’s Movements

While some are busy with the events, others continue finishing off the animations of the enemies. The elven champion and his bear are nearly ready to join the game.

The bear is scratching its sweet little muzzle in one of the animations below. That’s so cute, isn’t it?

⠀⠀⠀

The Thing is also getting ready to enter the playing field and work on your nerves. It’s already snout-sniffing for an unwary traveler. Be careful – the Thing is highly contagious!



All's well that ends well

Unique endings are also being drawn up. In fact, there are way more of them than you can possibly imagine! Very soon you’ll be able to track them all down and receive achievements!

⠀⠀⠀⠀

That's it for today. Don’t forget to visit our social networks, where we communicate with you and read your suggestions for improving our game.
