Greetings,

First of all, I would like to thank everyone for playing Never Rain since its initial release. The latest update for Never Rain consists of the three major updates which had been announced previously, with the difference of having such updates joined into a single update. The achievement system has been changed to function inside the game itself, which means that Never Rain will not contain steam achievements. In addition, Never Rain has only two achievements, that being of either winning or losing. Lastly, this is the final update for Never Rain, with the exception of major bug fixes.

Developing Never Rain has been an exceptional educational experience, and I once again sincerely thank everyone for playing.

First batch of performance improvements (render speed) and added script loading screen to make it clearer the game is loading scripts. Compiled shaders are now cached to reduce loading time. Depending on the Graphic Driver used this will takes some time the first time it runs.

Update v3.0.2 is now live for both PC and Mac, with a number of important bug fixes:

Missions

• Fix ‘Edit Deck’ mission so that it works with buttons and not only dragging.
  
• Allow using Tybalt Marr for seasonal Sons of Horus missions.
  
• Fix Mission to put Flank troops in play.
  
• Fix Battle Pass points provided by Missions replaced (it was always the same, but can now vary).
  
• Tweak description of some starter Missions to add information on how to complete them.
  
• Update text on Starter pass text, to avoid incorrectly referencing the tutorial.

Other bug fixes

• Fix alternare art for Abaddon & Horus, so that they can be used in Legacy mode as previously, and as ‘skins’ for new Sons of Horus warlords in Standard mode.
  
• Fix bug causing some cards to crash the game in certain edge cases (eg. Unshakable Warden, Desperate Defence).
  
• Fix error which caused the Avatar in profile to revert to Aximand after changing decks.
  
• Fix Sentry Turret image not always visible in tutorial.
  
• Fix Daemons created by Kurtha Sedd and Lorgar Transfigured, to use the newly released Lesser and Greater Daemons.

Interface improvements

• Invulnerable VFX now remains on unit for as long as it has the trait.
  
• Change font color of Chat messages while being auto-translated, to provide instant feedback.
  
• Prevent some unnecessary notifications of new chat preview area.
  
• Increase size of Chat and Action Log buttons in battle.
  
• Display menu animation in Legacy mode even with particles disabled.
  
• Change label of ‘Deck List’ button to ‘Change Deck’.

Hi all,

Just wanted to spread word that Snafu, my upcoming horror game is almost here!

Development is beginning to approach the final stages, and so far I can say that I am very happy with the direction of the game. It is a very different horror game, very unique, in my opinion.

After spending this whole long weekend working on and completing a castle of the game, I am a little more comfortable with the March 08 release date of the game.

Here is a little snippet of the inside during night time when its the spookiest...


There is not much else I have to say right now other than "get ready" for something entirely different!

cheers!
