• Normal Boss - Hertus
  Hertus was a shaman who enjoyed the nature of the forest. After the infection however, the shaman embraced the transformation of his body instead of resisting. Finally he felt like one with the forest... looks like he can throw everything!
  
  

• Update of boss room generation
  To prepare the addition of bosses, boss generation of the map will be changed! There will be a limit of 5 normal boss maps. That means if you start a new game, there will be 5 of 7 bosses in the map, which are randomly selected.
  
  
• Improved combat system
  Have you experienced frustration from unexpected counter from bosses, even after attacking at the right timing? Length of stun will be increased if either you or the enemy get hit before finishing the action! This will be nullified if the target is immune to stun.

• Cursed Item: Gloves of the Blacksmith
  Causes burn to player at every 5 attacks, then 3 small fire pillar will be summoned in front of you.
  
  
• Normal Item: Distorted Sapling
  Summons sapling after getting hit, which will aid you in combat. Attack speed of the sapling will be increased as you lose more health.
  
  
• Boss Item: Black High-heeled Shoe
  Attacking downed enemy will deal more damage.

• Agave
  
  • Healing amount of Agave's active item 'Holy Water' decreased from 70% of maximum health to 60% of maximum health.
    
    
  • Decreasing effectiveness of 'Holy Water' reduced slightly, but the effect will be even worse when you use it at the same stage.
    
    
  • Agave can now move when preparing the charged attack.
    
    
  • Agave's 'Heavy Footstep' perk will be changed:
    Able to move while charging the charged attack -> When preparing the charged attack, blocks single stun effect from enemies' attack.

• Lycoris
  
  • Heal multiplier for health point recovery from eating dead enemies' corpse reduced, from 0.2 to 0.07.

• Stats of the Female monster from the 'Wedding Ring' event slightly reduced overall.

• Active Item: Thorny Ground
  If you use this item to place spike near the enemy, now it will shortly stun your enemy. However stun effect will not be triggered for the spikes that are already placed on the ground.
  
  
• Passive Item: Turtle Gem
  Your shield now recovers up to certain amount at each use. So, even if you use your active item multiple times, you won't be able to get more shield.

• Fixed the problem that occurs when Nagne dies simultaneously with the weakened boss.
  
  
• Fixed an issue where you couldn't use Nagne's special ability when you're out of mana.
  
  
• Fixed an issue that causes BGM to stop after attacking bosses with Nagne's charged attack.
  
  
• Fixed the problem that locked you in the area, when you restart the game immediately after killing the final boss.
  
  
• Fixed an issue where final boss changes when you restart the game before entering the final stage.
  
  
• Active item key will now be reset successfully after resetting keybindings to default.
  
  
• Input range for game controllers' analogue stick was adjusted. Tell us anytime if you still have problem playing with controllers.

• New ending theme will be played after defeating Lobelia and Merc.
  
  
• New music is added for the event that indicates the final boss.
  
  
• Drinks from the bar are now cheaper. (2~9 golds → 1~4 golds)
  
  
• Instead of resetting the game, the game will now show you the title screen after game over or game clear screen.
  
  
• You can now check the dropped items' name and effect.
  
  
• Now you can choose whether you will enter the tutorial stage or not.
  
  
• Mimics won't spawn at the tutorial stage.
  
  
• Color of damage display will be more clear; changed from gray to silver.
  
  
• Improved the way the game displays difficulty:

==========

Thanks to everyone who played during our recent indie dev game showcase! It was a fantastic showing all of yall the new content. As always, we’ve still got heaps of bugs to fix especially due to this new content.

As of 0.182 our patch notes will return to a more regular and less frantic schedule.

This week we were recording voice-overs for AI-controlled bots and safe zone traders. You'll be able to enjoy those voice acting masterpieces after the early access release, but alpha-testers will have a chance to hear it earlier, in some future version of the test client.
We hope that fans of strong language and post-apocalyptic brutal realism will be 100% satisfied :)

Also we've reviewed your alpha-test application forms and sent out a bunch of keys. Don't forget to check your emails, alpha stage #2 is already running!

We are accelerating toward the conclusion of the game and reach the point where we will be leaving Early Access and launch the game in its final version.

For this reason we have thought that rather that making announcements based on some features, to focus on showing what has changed in the course of the last month.
Since this is the first of this new formats, we will probably bring a couple of things that were introduced during December.

1. A clear example of hard closing a game can be, and when you try to close a bug that was making the box displacement shaggy, only to find that in the process you have reopened two bugs long time ago closed.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Fine tuning some visual details to bring the game visuals to a more immersive level of details, by integrating some cloud movements that will cast some shadows on the level.
   In the current view, yo can see the clouds with different shapes and speeds (based on the z axis) overflying the level.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Some tests being done to improve the feeling of velocity while moving the game characters.
   Using Unity Post Processing version 2, we are updating in realtime the effects for the motion blur and for the depth of field as to blur everything in the background based on the speed of the character, and restauring them as the speed decrease to an halt.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. The boxes mechanics have been giving us several problems over the course of the development, and in several occasions, although we thought that every had been correctly implemented, some strange conditions within the game eventually ended generating inconsistent feedback from the boxes.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
5. Although the characters are not seen from a very close range, we always thought that it could bring an enhanced empathy if we would be able to implement some face animations. This what we have done because we think that little details count a lot in a game.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
6. The combat system has been evolving too, both from a point of view of direct attacks as the feedback of all the strikes.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
7. As to better balance the difficulty level, introducing the Yari samurai, a type of samurai that throws his spear fiercely.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   We are updating more frequently our twitter and our youtube channel so follow us or subscribe for more frequent updates.

   HIE Youtube Channel

Another small fix based on initial feedback from players. This should make the progression for new players a bit easier.

• First two outfits are unlocked a bit more quick.
  
• Chapter 2 is now unlocked at 6 crystals instead of 7.
  
• Restart level text in the "summary" screen should now look better in French.
  
• Russian translation should now be improved.
  
• Fixed a rare bug in the Chapter 4 mechanic.

As always, thank you for the support of my little puzzle game!

안녕하세요 테일즈샵입니다.

여러분들의 많은 성원으로 처음 프로젝트를 기획할때
예정한 모든 기획을 하나도 빠짐없이 진행할수 있게되어 감사드립니다.

계획 공지드립니다.


notice! - english support / may 2020

Welcome to January’s development update!

This Devlog marks the beginning of our second year of hands-on development, following 2018’s year of pre-production and planning. It might seem like a long time, but we managed to accomplish a lot of great things during the past twelve months. 2020 is going to be filled with a lot of milestones for Prehistoric Kingdom, so the most exciting news is yet ahead, park builders!



Over the past month, we’ve been searching for a potential candidate to join the programming team on Prehistoric Kingdom. Finalising a lengthy interview process, the newest team member will be joining us shortly to help develop additional gameplay systems.

Assisting with the weight of development, Matt’s been working on automating animal setup as much as possible. Since the dinosaurs and mammals are such an integral part of the game’s experience, an automated pipeline will greatly assist in providing templates where possible to avoid wasting time with manual setup.

January also allowed us to plan milestones and alpha-related content deadlines to hit certain marketing opportunities. With our eyes on releasing alpha at an unspecified date this year, it’s important to put production deadlines in place.



Park managers looking to stay up-to-date with the project can sign up for the Crytivo Club! It's totally free and provides exclusive access to giveaways, promotions and even the occasional game. Sign up today!

In addition to the Crytivo Club, don't forget to Wishlist us on Steam!





Modular pieces can now be selected and moved around! While it may sound simple in concept, the system needed to be robust enough to work with multiple pieces at once with the added functionality of moving across a grid at varying scales with no room for error.

With selection developed, we’ve integrated an outline when placing objects to ensure that players can see the location of their piece at all times regardless of obstructions.



Based on the concept art from last month, Mau is almost done with the functionality for recoloring roof and wall pieces.

Each material type comes with its own bank of recent colors that can be easily transferred to another texture by copy and pasting its hex values. The default setting can be returned to by dismissing its small color preview on the material button.


Ugly development textures and all!

With user experience always a priority, there’s been a handful of technical challenges to overcome with designing a system like this. Nevertheless, the team’s continued to find solutions where it matters in an attempt to evolve the usability of modular building systems in the genre.



Two popular Cenozoic icons were shown off in-game this month with their new designs revealed to the public. Opposing each other with drastically different temperature requirements, the Smilodon and Woolly Mammoth are essential beasts in Prehistoric Kingdom’s roster.






Once roaming the lush forests of ancient North America, Acrocanthosaurus prowls with a menacing stature. With a unique shape courtesy of its infamous raised spine, Mau’s animation helps to bring this shy carnivorous giant to life.




Coexisting with ferocious predators, Camarasaurus is a staple sauropod of the Morrison Formation. Known from three distinct species, this animal is far more nimble than its larger relatives!






As a blast from the past, we’d like to show you the updated vocals for Camarasaurus. Introduced to our community all the way back in the Jurassic Patch, Byron’s done a complete overhaul on its sound set to better convey this dinosaur’s enormous scale.



Sounds sourced from seals, walruses, spider monkeys, manatees and even more animals were used to create the new sounds for this sauropod.

Without good implementation, even the best sound design can fall flat when integrated into a game environment. By using audio middleware like FMOD, the sound team can create custom sequences and parameters accessible by programmers in order to deliver on a far more detailed soundscape with better user interactivity.

We’re only experimenting at this stage but so far the results have been promising. Things like distant carnivores roaring with the appropriate reverb falloff, footstep weight increasing as animals age and a more dynamic ambient soundscape are all areas Byron’s managed to create using the toolset.

The team looks to begin integrating this new audio system shortly!


One of our many experiments for an age-based footstep event.



With their anatomy vastly improved, Cindy continues to show off her skill with the newest sculpts and textures for Smilodon and Mammuthus. Staples of the Ice Age aesthetic, the updated iterations of these creatures have a far greater resemblance to what we know the prehistoric beasts looked like.







If you’d like to see more renders, check out Cindy’s ArtStation for a better look at the animals!

...

Thank you for reading January’s Devlog!

There are some good surprises in store for the community in the following months that we can’t quite talk about yet, but we promise they’ll be worth the wait. Make sure to tune into the following development updates for even more gameplay news!

Until next time,

Hello Everyone,

We have just released a patch for Britannic!


-Fixed so that the mouse cursor does not appear in the free camera mode

-Added instructions on how to use the free camera mode

- Minimum score goal for Mountains level has been lowered from 15k to 8k in order to better balance it's difficulty. Judging by the number of people on each leaderboard, this level seamed to be a pretty significant difficulty spike. Due to this level's design, it's one of the tricker ones to maintain a large combo multiplier on, and so it's minimum score goal has been adjusted to compensate. This should hopefully prevent people from getting stuck on this level for an unreasonably long time.

- The Flight Sensitivity setting has been split into two separate settings, one for Controllers, and one for Mouse & Keyboard. If you previously changed the old setting, you may need to readjust it now. This should make it easier for people to experiment with the controls, and find their preferred setup.

- All sensitivity sliders can now be lowered to a minimum of 10% if desired (the previous minimum value was 50%). This change is to better accommodate people who might be playing with really high sensitivity mice or other input devices.

- The Invert Y Axis option has also been split into two separate settings for Mouse & Keyboard and Controllers. If you previously changed the old setting, you may need to readjust it now.

- The Flight Rating requirements to unlock levels after Sunken City have been lowered. Previously, many of these were set so that beating each of the previous levels with only a grade of 'D' was not enough to unlock subsequent levels, This is now only the case for the final few levels. I think this change will allow more people to experience more of the game, without compromising it's actual challenge (since the focus is really on achieving higher grades and climbing the leaderboards, rather than just beating the levels at the minimum goal).

- Leaderboards now display the grade achieved next to each score. This makes it easier to compare scores at a glance, and to quickly get a feel for each leaderboard's scores as a whole.

- The artist of each music track is now displayed on the music player under the track name, instead of just in the Credits. I'm guessing that most people probably don't actually look at the Credits screen, so this way the artists who made each track will get better recognition.

- Fixed issue that prevented Speed Demon achievement from triggering (thanks to Volticizer for pointing this one out to me!).

On February 16, you will have a unique opportunity to check what your dollar will do in natural conditions!

Do you want to feel the full power of one US dollar? You want to be a dollar yourself?

On February 16, you will finally have this opportunity!
Become a dollar and describe how you feel!!!
This should be great!!!
