Lords of the Fallen - CIG_Shikallum
Prior to embarking upon the horrifying lands of Mournstead it is imperative that one moulds a vision of their champion, a vision that will strike unremitting fear in the hearts of all they encounter. Will you embody a small and nimble Exiled Stalker, who can slice through flesh with great haste, or perhaps grasp a blood-stained battle axe as a large bearded Udirangr Warwolf? Then again, will you find yourself stripped bare with only the rags on your back as the Condemned? You are only limited by your imagination…


"One of the most important decisions you'll make in any Soulslike is what to go with for your starting class. Ultimately, you'll be able to adjust your character to whatever build you want by levelling up your stats, but your starting class affects your playstyle where it often matters most..."

HELLO, HITCHHIKER
Major Update 2: The Overworld, is now live!


This update brings a lot of community requested features and changes, a new location, two new enemies, a new boss fight, brand new mid-run upgrades and more. Let’s get into it.

New Location: Ewer Fortress

A new location in the Hyperworld, the Ewer Fortress is a maze of stone and circuitry, filled with abstract geometry and expansive rooms. Players will frequently have to put their traversal abilities to use in order to get around.

New Boss: Steward One

The final boss and supreme authority of the Overworld, Steward One will make sure your run ends with her. With multiple phases and nasty projectile attacks players will have to use traversal abilities to avoid, Steward One stands as the last obstacle between you and the Overworld Harmonizer.

New Enemy: Ewer Quadra

The first of the new enemies arriving in Major Update 2, The Ewer Quadra is an extremely high-threat unit that fills an unoccupied niche in our current spread of enemies.

Capable of attacking the player from anywhere on-screen, the Quadra makes every single encounter they show up in about them, pestering the player at range with fast shurikens that phase through walls. When the player gets close, it will leap backwards out of melee range and throw its arm assemblies like massive boomerangs to try to keep the player at bay.

Once players have the Quadra all alone, they can (literally) disarm it by shooting its arm assemblies while they're in flight. Once disarmed, the Quadra will be totally defenseless, and will be forced to run from the player, offering a little bit of catharsis after being such a nuisance.

New Enemy: Ewer Arrestor

The second new enemy in Major Update 2, the Arrestor is a new unit found in the Ewer City.

Equipped with a short-range explosive attack and a grappling hook, It will appear as a support unit in most encounters, as well as in locations where it might pull inattentive players off of platforms and into pits.

Hub Changes

Based on community feedback, players no longer have to run from person to person or walk all the way to the portal to start a new run. You can now simply teleport to wherever you want to go with a handy radial menu.

A new vendor, and a whole new set of upgrades
The Citadel has a new vendor to speak with, offering all-new sets of upgrades and perks to assist you mid-run. Things like:
  • Unlocking a Weapon Station that appears before boss encounters where you can upgrade your current weapons.
  • The ability to recycle unwanted weapons and items for money mid-run.
  • Powerful offensive upgrades for the Teleport Drone.
  • Find weapons with a guaranteed number of Perks after a certain power level.
Steam Achievements
A frequent request, Major Update 2 comes with 45 Steam Achievements to… well… achieve. Collect them all!

Misc. Changes
  • New Amps, Powerups and Psychic Augments
  • Grapple point visuals now change slightly when they are in-range of the player and grappleable.
  • Forge has seen a bit of a redesign. It’s now a little bigger, and laid out so that players will need to explore more of the level before finding an exit.
  • Changes have been made to hitpause and screenshake to make every attack feel more impactful.
  • Added slowmo when staggering Elite or Tank units.
  • New platforming challenges have been added to the In-Between that are specific to Kera and Naira.
  • Spectral Swords: A new ability for Altara that surrounds her with several floating blades that slice enemies she passes through.
  • Countless other minor fixes

Core Keeper - Bridie
Welcome to another Weekly Community Wrap-Up, Explorers! We can't believe how quickly the weeks go by, it'll be Christmas before we know it. Speaking of Christmas (though, we suppose we've got Halloween first), we wanted to remind you that all of our in-game seasonal events can be accessed at any time through the Gameplay Settings menu. You can even toggle these on/off if you'd rather not experience them at all throughout the year!

Mini-Moolin
Hmm, there's something a little off about this Moolin. It's really small and it looks like it's only recently learnt to walk. Odd...



Desert of Beginnings Concept Art
Have you seen some of the amazing concept art that our Lead Artist, Julian, creates when we're working on something new? Here's some of the concepts from The Desert of Beginnings update! We're sure you'll spot plenty of familiar designs along with a few that didn't quite make the final cut (such as the Sunpear and Nightdew Blossom plants!).



Which is Your Favourite Day of the Week?
It's a tough job, exploring the underground 7 days a week, but somebody has to do it.



Colourful Cat-Creatures!

Palladium - Odisseo
Hello! This week I worked on new gibbing effects, new environmental effects and general balancing. All these features will now undergo a testing process, and you are more than welcome to try them through the beta (to get access to it dm me on the official discord)!
Also a couple of locations have been reworked and I will continue this “architectural redesign” of some areas in the following week.



Colours and general feeling of these zones.



Lower body gibbing



Upper body gibbing

I'm also experimenting with my level design techniques and workflow. Notice that the following image is just an experiment and won’t necessarily end up in the game (as is).


This week was also spent fixing UI and map geometry bugs.
That’s all for this week!
Cheers!
