Watch, Daithi, the developer play through dark, turn based RPG, Prometheus Wept. I'll be dropping in and out of the stream to answer any questions you have. Enjoy!
This is a very big and important update. We have dangerous automobile traffic! Collectible uranium! Meatballs! Lots of improvements to enemies and levels, including the first complete redo of one of the rougher early levels, something that I will be doing to a few more of the levels over the upcoming updates.
CHANGELIST:
Completely remade the Tombstone map
Removed TowerBlocks from the map rotation. It’s being remade along the same lines as Tombstone and will be re-added once it’s ready.
Adjusted enemy AI to be more mobile and aggressive. They will randomly wander much more, move around while shooting, jump around, and will find and pursue you if shot from far away.
Major level overhaul to Backwash
Added getting run over by trucks
Added 3 types of collectible to each level: Meatballs, Burritos, and Enriched Uranium
Fixed player movement stuttering when kicking in midair
Added a slight random variation in pitch and volume to enemy attack sounds to make them a bit less abrasive/repetitive
Added a variety of new vehicle models and added them into various levels
Hello Steam, if you didn't know we're undergoing a Kickstarter campaign while we speak, check it out here!
Great Start!
One week into the campaign and we’re off to a great start. We’ve already exceeded our initial objective and backers keep on joining in on our adventure!
First Stretch Goal
As hinted towards in our previous announcement, we’re ready to reveal the first stretch goal for Roots of Yggdrasil’s Kickstarter campaign: The Muspelheim Biome.
This new environment will radically alter the game experience as its unique characteristics will unlock new challenges and new rewards during runs. Muspelheim is a realm scorched by lava and flames where volcanic waste is spewed on the ground. Here, in this magmatic nightmare, lies the corpse of Surtr guarded by the wandering fire giants.
This stretch goal will be unlocked if we manage to raise 50,000$ towards the game.
We hope to see many more of you join our quest to develop Roots of Yggdrasil, and maybe, who knows, unlock further stretch goals once we make it to this one!
Playable Demo and More
In case you missed it, our playable demo is on Steam if you're interested in trying it out. The goal of this demo is to give you a feel of the game but it's also a way for us to gather feedback. So please don't hesitate to join our Discord server, we have a community you can join right now and your feedback is crucial for the development of our game. At the same time, if you haven't wishlisted the game on Steam, please take a moment to wishlist. If you didn't know, it's a tiny action that requires only a click of a button from you but it helps us in a HUGE way by boosting our game into Steam's discoverability algorithm once we gain a certain amount. As indies, this is another way to directly support us!
Again, we cannot thank you enough for the incredible support you've shown us in such a short amount of time. There's still 23 days left to the campaign and hopefully we can keep this momentum going and hit our first stretch goal before the end. If you know anyone that would be interested in our game or if you're a part of a community of people that loves this genre, please feel free to share!
Here’s a quick word from Becca, our PR Account Manager!
“We hope those of you who have had the chance to try out Sanctuary Saga so far have enjoyed it. We can’t say enough great things about the positive feedback from the community. And now, if you haven’t been able to dive into the game yourself, you can because we’ve just opened up the demo for the Steam Next Fest! It’s great to have it featured alongside so many incredible upcoming games!
As we gear up towards launch on March 8th, we wanted players to get into the game for a taste of what’s in store. Gather up your caravan and venture into the Untamed Wilds! Strategize how to take down bosses or even those pesky mini bosses while learning the ins and outs of combat. Secrets and dangers await you!
If you like what you see during the demo, we encourage you to wishlist the game so you can stay up to date on announcements. We also have a discord where you can chat with other players and compare notes on the best way to survive in the Untamed Wilds!
Hello, early access is live and here is what i need to do: + More characters + More weapons + More meta progression + Bosses + More Skills and gadgets ---------- I will be on the lookout for any bug reports and suggestions c: The game is at least 70% of what my full vision for crystal storm is, any feedback is appreciated, you can use Steam Discussion Forums/Discord/Twitter/Youtube videos for that.

Bug Fixes and Balance Adjustments
In Ver.3.1.0.0, an issue was addressed that prevented the player from carving a severed tail if the tail overlapped with the fence switch in the Arena. This fix was not properly reflected in Ver.10.0.2.0 and onward, so it has been fixed again.
A notification will now be displayed when you've reached the maximum number of locked quests for Anomaly Investigations at the quest counter.
Fixed an issue preventing players from performing any other actions if they go through a specific sequence of steps after copying the Lobby ID at the Courier's Lobby Settings.
Two features of Research Requests have been changed: 1. Just completing any Investigation at the specified level or above now counts as fulfilling a request. 2. If you also hunt the specified monster on the same quest, you will earn extra progress for the request.
Lower required quest levels will now appear for Research Requests.
Added "Anomaly Research & Followers" to the Hunter Info.
Fixed an issue occasionally preventing the "Obtaining Anomaly Research Points" entry from being unlocked in the Hunter Info.
Fixed an issue preventing changes to keyboard settings from being reflected correctly for some menu items on the Guild Card's "Buddy Info," Awards," and "Hunting Log" pages.
Fixed an issue causing motion blur to appear in some cutscenes when it has been enabled in the options.
Fixed an issue causing an error when quitting the game if the graphics settings are set to "High," the framerate cap is set to "90," and V-sync is enabled in specific environments.
Fixed an issue causing the screen mode to change from full screen to windowed on some monitors when using a DisplayPort cable and switching the monitors on and off.
Some Event Quests are now part of the application itself, rather than being downloadable separately.
A notification will now be displayed in case of an error when corrupted saved data is loaded.
Monster Hunter Rise does not allow for matchmaking between different versions of the game. If you update the game, you will no longer be able to matchmake with players who haven't applied the patch yet. You can check your current version on the bottom right of the title screen.
The Steam version does not support cross saves or crossplay with other platforms.
You're probably asking yourselves the question from the title of this announcement. We're glad to give you an answer.
The first plan was to allow you to play the demo of "ClockVenture" at the beginning of this month, just before the February edition of the Steam Next Fest. Sadly, just at the end of development it turned out, that our game has a few serious bugs.
Our goal is to show you the results of our work with the best quality possible. That's why we're forced to postpone the release of the demo one more time. It's hard to give you the exact date, but we can assure you, that it's almost the end of this journey.
