(Description of challenge below)

Hello, Knights! Over the last month you all have been sharing pictures and stories of your sword-only advenstures through New Boston. If you would like to catch up on the fun, you can check out the Steam discussion thread and hop over to our Discord to check out #swords_only_challenge.

A few highlights from the month:


Doomfluffy not only wrote up detailed and fun After Actions Reports on their swords only missions, but also themed their entire team around the Princess Bride. The codenames and outfits complete the whole picture!



If you are going swords only, you of course thing of Kill Bill, and therefore must dress appropriately jotwebe paid homage to the movie, outfitting their entire crew in yellow and they slashed their way through New Boston.



And a shout out to metalsonElVikings who played this challenge on Chrome Ironman difficulty and managed to get everyone in and out alive with careful play.


Thank you to all of you who shared about your Knights and team of mercs' adventures in New Boston with only their swords! Though this challenge is over, feel free to tackle it any time and share how it goes for you!

Stay tuned for more community events in the future!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello, Knights! As our first foray into CK:F challenges we are going to do a what I’m calling a mini-challenge or to be more on theme, a nano-challenge. These nano-challenges will run for just a couple of weeks and have less specific requirements that our bigger challenges. Our first nano-challenge is Swords Only and will run until December 8th (though freel free to do the challenges any time you want, we always love hearing about people tackling them).




There is really only one requirement for this challenge:

- Complete a mission (or missions) using only swords as your weapons. If you are unable to afford all swords, you can take other weapons along but you cannot use them.
- You may use any combination of mercs, talents, and items, but your only weapons are to be swords.

As always, we want to see and hear about your adventures tackling the challenge so here are some ideas for what we’d love to see:

- Screenshots of squad during the mission, the guards after you are done with them
- After Action Reports of your missions, challenges you faced
- Your strategies for sneaking up on guards, sneaking past guards
- Any other creative ways you want to share to tell us about the operating in the underbelly of New Boston with only your sword: memes, interpretive dance, gifs, etc



No matter what you choose to share, please share at least one screenshot of your squad mid-mission so we can see what they got up to!

We’ve opened up a discussion here on Steam in the General Discussion forum for aIl of your posts. If you post in our Discord, head to #swords_only_challenge to join in on the conversation!

You spend time in this room, though an irresistible feeling lingers that it's not to your advantage. Still, you can't tear yourself away from the journal, these few memories penned by those who were here before you.

The crackling flame in the fireplace dances light on the aged pages of the journal as you continue to read.

I don't know how long I've been in this Mansion; it feels like time is slipping away, losing its meaning here. I wander through its corridors, each time stumbling upon something new that my hands hadn't sensed in the darkness before… But perhaps my surroundings are changing, maybe someone is playing with my sanity, trying to drive me into madness?



My expeditions have borne their first fruits. I managed to reach the upper floor, and the map changed when my feet touched the final step. This house defies the laws of physics; its construction eludes my imagination.

This success has a bitter taste; the fruits of my search are being devoured by larvae. Part of the floor is beyond my reach; I see it clearly on the map, yet no doors lead there. As I tried to open another one, I could swear I heard something, like scratching on the other side. Is someone cursing me? Has the time come to pay a steep price for my deeds?



In one of the rooms, I stumbled upon a peculiar symbol. If I've learned anything so far, it's that phenomena like this are significant to me. I recorded this place in the journal, but I must continue searching; I need more clues.



Here, the entry concludes.

Hammerhold’s time draws near!

Vez'nan reveals his grand plan to capture Hammerhold. Will you answer the call to lead the assault?

Malik is leading the citadel’s defense troops. They've fortified their walls and put up defensive towers. Legionnaires have been busy amassing their troops. Word is that they've even managed to tame hefty desert elephants and mystic djinns.

You're to lead a surprise landing on their desert shores. Don't be surprised if familiar heroes stumble into our path.

Do you fancy yourself worthy of this endeavor, or shall the Dark Lord search for someone less... hesitant?

The decision is yours.

We have some exciting news for Amazing Frog? 2.
A Major Update, the Sandbox Update will be available soon.

Recently, we dropped "V3" from the name in favour of "Amazing Frog? 2". A bit of rebranding as we give Amazing Frog? 2 its independence. I actually wrote a few blog posts that I never posted attempting to explain this, but in the end I felt it was self explanatory.

So, if you bought Amazing Frog? or Amazing Frog? 2 before today nothing will change and you will continue own both apps in your library, but from today we will be selling Amazing Frog? and Amazing Frog? 2 separately ( or in a bundle, I guess).

Amazing Frog? 2 began its development with every intention to become an iterative "update" to Amazing Frog? Things change... the scope changed, software changed, possibilities changed and we ended up working on two projects moving in different directions.
We now have two games:

Amazing Frog? 2

and

Amazing Frog? (the Quest for the Magical Mystery Toilet)


I don't like "Road Maps" It makes me feel super uncomfortable to state what we are going to do as things change in development and we often need the flexibility to adapt. But I can outline a simple top line Road Map for both projects.

Has become our more Experimental development environment. In the Sandbox update we are opening up a series of new environments and giving you access to more unlocked FAPS disk items to use in the new "Everything Sandbox" mode. We will give access to the Swindon Games island, Winter Island, Tiny Islands and a couple of emerging environments with tentative starting names the Toy room and Zombie Land.

Sandbox







Toy Room






Zombie Land



Tiny Islands



has evolved to be a kind of open world free roaming adventure game and will leave early Access very soon. We are building for other platforms since it is now in a highly portable state. We will continue to update Amazing Frog? QMMT especially here on Steam, complete the Legacy Remastering process, flight school, magic toilet etc and of course continue to introduce more activities, a bunch of new vehicles, new beasts and Amazing Frog? QMMT part 3 is next... You can find out more about QMMT here:

So far this year the Updates for Amazing Frog?2 have been "seasonal" Easter, Valentines and lunar new year...(Really looking forward to year of the Dragon....) We wanted to implement a perpetual season system within Swindonshire. Meaning that the bunny outfits would become available every easter, Pumpkins for October, Santa Heads and crazy elf frogs in the Holiday season. Looking at where we are at, I can't believe the last update was easter!
It has been a major advantage being small allowing us to continue to develop in perpetuity, but the down side of being a small developer is that things take time.

Update coming very soon.

• Fixed a few specific situations in which you could get stuck in the tutorial
  
• Fixed the log files not showing up when reporting a bug
  
• Removed the introductory text

Hello adventurer,
We will be conducting a minor shutdown update at 18:00 UTC on November 17th.
The expected maintenance time is about 1 hour. Please understand.

Cave Crawlers, here is the first post release patch, we're still investigating on some issues that need time to solve, but here are fixes and first additions :

BugFixes :

• The player will no longer spawn as a creature in the in-game menu
  
• We fixed a problem where players were unable to unpossess creatures after saving under creature and then loading back
  
• We added the Haptic turn on/off feature
  
• Subtitles will no longer be hovered by HUD indicators (such as sprint/dash)
  
• We balanced the in game voice acting as it was too weak, it now be a lot more audible
  
• We fixed the damage sound taken when hit by light with Axolotl & Rodent, causing them to repeat every frame causing a very loudy weird noise

Known Issues :

• Sadly, on some cases, player may still encounter deathchains, we're working on it and reducing their numbers
  
• A weird camera rotation can be applied if you're saving in animal form and then coming back (to solve, until we fix it, you can unpossess the creature / repossessing a new one)
  
• Some voices and subtitles may be not correctly synchronized

The demo will be updated with a new available area replacing the previous one, more restricted, but more passable for players.

The team is still working on other issues in the meantime, just for you to know, we'll deploy a new patch every two weeks, one minor (like this one) and one major, at the beginning of each months. Thank you for your patience!🙏
