There was in fact a small but nasty bug with yesterday's patch, so I'm glad I sent it to beta. The character creator wasn't working properly, so I fixed that along with several other reports, and will once again push this to beta for safety before pushing it to the live branch.

In all honestly I accidentally merged some of the beta content that I was working on into this patch, so early surprise kind of thing, though still a bit of a work in progress. Basically, summoning circles, which are used to summon town NPCs into custom built buildings, have been expanded to work for all types of NPCs, rather than only those with facilities. This functionality has been added to the summoning circles themselves, and they will now tell you what you need to summon the NPC you are trying to summon. I've also changed how it used to do a "flood fill" check on the building to see if it was a completely enclosed house, to a much more lenient system where it simply requires that the building be made up of at least 30 building pieces, including walls, floor, ceiling, etc.. This system is still a bit of a work in progress, mainly in that the reposition/position functions will not save the custom building, instead reverting back to the default town building, but not so alarmingly different that I need to keep it off the live branch until further developed.

v 0.6.4.39 2020.10.05
- Fixed town NPC resetting
- Fixed chests not locking properly in multiplayer
- Fixed the structure (not individual building pieces) deconstruction button not working properly
- Fixed the new elemental death audio ignoring volume settings
- Fixed the character creation screen not working with yesterdays patch
- Fixed picking up leyline teleporters not saving properly

You may need to restart Steam for the update to begin.

There are only a few days left on the Kickstarter campaign to record our soundtrack with live players! It ends at 4pm PDT (23:00 UTC) on Thursday, October 8th. We're currently over 97% funded!

Candy Emberley, our composer, has been sharing a wide range of content with backers each day, including interviews with musicians and the Wildermyth team, stories behind the creation of the music, and playlists of her musical inspirations.

Kickstarter is an all-or-nothing platform - you will only be charged at the end of the campaign if we reach our goal. Even if you aren't able to contribute, we really appreciate you sharing the campaign with anyone who might be interested!



We want Wildermyth's players to have the best possible experience, and live music is a big part of that. Wildermyth is an emotional game that really asks its players to connect to their characters, and the expression, nuance, and warmth of live music fosters that kind of connection. We’re really excited to meet this Kickstarter goal and make the music of Wildermyth come alive.

There are some great rewards for backers, including: a copy of the soundtrack, a limited edition enamel pin, a unique music box, music lessons with Candy, custom D&D character artwork in the Wildermyth style, and an event in the game. Details about all the rewards are available on the campaign page.

The kickstarter is unrelated to regular development, and the two things are handled by different people, so the roadmap won't be affected.

Candy will be hosting a listening party on Tuesday, October 6th, at 6pm PDT (Wednesday, October 7th, 01:00 UTC) over at https://twitch.tv/candycomposer. She'll be playing pieces from the Wildermyth soundtrack, including works as they were in progress and some music that isn't implemented in the game yet! Come on by whether you're a backer or not, and bring your friends!

We truly couldn't do this without you, so thank you so much!

Spooky scary greetings, friends!

The temperatures fall, the foliage changes color and Halloween is around the corner - and that means it's time for the Steam Game Festival “Autumn Edition” taking place October 7th – 13th 2020! ːsteamhappyː

What does this mean for you? We will be streaming more of Pumpkin Jack live on Friday, 9th October 1pm – 2pm PST/10pm – 11pm CEST here on the Steam page to guide you deeper into the spooky scary world of Jack!

Oh, and there will be a playable demo waiting for you of course! ːsteamhappyː

See you all in the stream!

Join us during the Steam Game Festival at 8pm on October 7 for an hour-long stream as we are playing The Slormancer and answering questions live on our chat!

See you on Wednesday, October 7th!


The Slormancer is an epic 2D Action-RPG Dungeon Crawling game following a band of outcasts on their fight against hordes of enemies lead by The Slormancer!
Play as a "Mighty" Knight, a "Fierce" Huntress or a "Mischievous" Mage, master hundreds of abilities and ancestral powers, gear up, fight for the reputation of your kind and prove your value to the realm.

Featuring loads of shiny Loot, tons of collectibles, countless hours of content, a frenetic gameplay and carefully crafted pixel art.


We are a two-man independent game development studio based in France. It was created in November 2017 with one goal in mind: to center the player's experience around FUN. Plain and simple. Not frustration, not tedious quests, not paywalls, not overwhelmingly complex mechanics or unfair challenges. Just fun. And we've been working on The Slormancer ever since.

The Slormancer is our first game and our most important project to this date which means we are determined to impress, and we will give everything we can!

• An irrational story!
  You were born with absolutely no skill whatsoever, and yet you find a way to be the last hope of the realm as the enigmatic Slormancer and his incompetent underling try to conquer the world once again. How great. But like your grandfather once told you: "You might not have the talent but you have the will."
  
• Three unique Classes
  Unlock and master more than 200 unique Abilities, Upgrades and Passives for every class. Each active Ability has its own skill tree, allowing you to create unique combinations.
  
• Harness the power of your Ancestral Legacy
  Choose your Legacy and inherit ancient powers among more than 150 Element-related Skills and Passives in the Ancestral Skill Tree.
  Master Fire and summon powerful elementals, use Ice to freeze your foes, convoke Thunder and create massive storms, embrace the power of Light or make one with Shadow, it's up to you!
  
• Unique Weapons
  120 unique and game-changing weapons available for every class. Each Slorm Reaper is a unique and priceless weapon that you can loot during your adventure. Once found, wield it to benefit from its powerful effect, level it up, and eventually evolve it to a greater form.
  
• Endless quest for Epic Loot!
  Find and collect normal, magic, rare and epic items with completely random properties but also shiny legendary items with more than 80 unique affixes.
  Then enhance them with an infinite upgrade system!
  
• Collect and Progress
  Unlock Skills, Upgrades and Ancestral Abilities, find epic items, and collect Slorm Reapers to create deadly combinations that suits your own play style!
  The Slormancer is all about Collection and Progression so you can switch at any point between any skills you’ve previously unlocked, Slorm Reapers and items you’ve previously found, even between the 3 classes of the game! This unique Flexibility allows you to swap between different combinations and play styles in the blink of an eye, whenever you feel like it.
  
• Procedural Adventures!
  Defeat lots of unique monsters, elites and bosses with more than 40 different affixes through procedurally generated adventures and hunt down The Slormancer’s Warlords through 7 different upgradable environments. There are always things to do and monsters to kill! And it's always different!

It’s easy to underestimate militia units for being under-equipped or poorly trained. The good thing about explosives, however, is they only have to be thrown in an enemy's general direction! 

With the high ground on their side, the Zykalian Militia can be a highly effective deterrent during siege battles. Their grenades might light them up as a target for enemy archers, but when stationed on the battlements, they're a great counter against sword units ascending the walls beneath them! 
 

Unlocking 

You will be able to command a Zykalian Militia unit temporarily after completing one series of Season V unit challenges. The unit will become permanently yours after finishing a second stage (along with any XP the unit may have earned along the way). Complete Stage 3 to receive a haul of Unit Medals, and Stage 4 to secure a Doctrine that increases the unit’s ammo reserves. 


 


Gameplay 

More so than other specialist ranged units, Zykalian Militia should never be deployed as a frontline force. Even Tenent Farmers would make short work of them. The best place for them is high upon a defensive wall, as their short throwing range makes it difficult to protect them in an open battle. They also have limited reserves of ammunition, so it's advisable to position them close to a resupply point. 


 

Progression 

Zykalian Militia have a maximum unit level of 16, with Veterancy Points investable across two branches. The top branch generally works to increase the effectiveness of the unit’s fire attack and reduce the cooldown timer, while the lower branch improves supply levels, movement, and range. The latter may be useful if you envisage deploying the unit in open battles more often than for siege engagements.

  


Just the facts: Zykalian Militia (3-star, ranged)
