Before Steam Fest, we're pushing new updates to make sure you get the best experience. The demo with all these updates will be ready on the official Be The Ruler: Britannia page.

Fixes:

- Performance optimization
- Fixed several crashes occurring when selecting text options or during scene transitions
- Minor tweaks

Features Added:

- Improved battle animations
- Additional battle and UI sound effects
- Option to select preferred targets for player's battalions
- Updated building costs and production
- Active pause (spacebar) available during battle
- Option to control player character with WSAD and select dialogue options with numeric buttons
- Some UI polish

Enjoy the new updates and let us know your feedback!

This small patch includes fixes for several achievements which were not working properly.

Fixes for achievements include:

• AI opponents no longer able to satisfy achievements.
  
• Laser & Stun achievements correctly given to player who scores the Laser Kill or Stun on their opponent.
  
• All Clear achievement correctly accounts for destroyed base tiles which could result in achievement being given too soon.

If you would like to reset all of your Square Saga: The Trials achievements so that you can earn any that may have been bugged, you can do so using the Steam Console. WARNING - this will reset all achievements for Square Saga: The Trials, so make sure you want to do this before following these steps.

1. Open the Steam Console by pressing the WIN + R button to open the Run dialog
   
2. Enter steam://open/console and select OK
   
3. There should now be a new CONSOLE menu option in your primary Steam window following the STORE, LIBRARY, COMMUNITY, "YOURNAME" options.
   
   
4. Select the CONSOLE menu option
   
5. Enter reset_all_stats 2770270
   
6. 2770270 is the App ID for Square Saga: The Trials
   
7. It may take several minutes for the achievements to show as cleared; sometimes navigating away from the game in your library and then back again is all it takes.

Hope you are enjoying the game!

Hello, Tacticians!

We are thrilled to announce that we are launching a 3-week Beta playtest for Skygard Arena! The game will be playable from June 10th until June 30th.

Click on “Request Access” on our Steam page and you will receive an email from Steam once you have been accepted into the Beta.



Last week, we mentioned a number of improvements and changes coming to Skygard Arena and we promised to give you a chance to play the new version of the game very soon… There you go!

By playing the Beta, you will be able to:

• Complete the new tutorial to quickly learn the basics of the game, including the new Pillar system and the new Persona feature;
  
• Build your own team by mix-and-matching 7 Champions and 14 Personas and try multiple combinations;
  
• Try different strategies to defeat the AI;
  
• Battle friends and foes all over the world in fast-paced 1v1 15-minute matches!

We will post a daily leaderboard featuring the top 10 players with the most PvP victories.

Make sure to join our Discord to follow the competition!



We absolutely love to receive feedback from our community and strive to continuously improve the game thanks to your inputs.

Make sure to join our Discord server and drop your thoughts in the #game-feedback channel!

We read every piece of feedback and discuss them as a team very regularly.


The team is working hard on major features and pieces of content that are currently in development and will come into the final version of the game:

• 5 more Champions, bringing the roster to a total of 12 Champions / 24 Personas;
  
• A complete single-player Campaign, enabling you to dive into the story of Skygard;
  
• Multiple items granting game-changing effects to Champions, to allow for even more customization and theorycrafting.
  
• A full-blown rank system for our Arena mode (in-game leaderboard, tiers…)

Besides sharing feedback, make sure to spread the word about the Beta to your friends and your favorite content creators! As more players playtest the Beta, we get more valuable feedback and data to create the best possible game.

If you are a content creator, feel free to stream the game on Twitch or share videos on Youtube! We would love to see you play and discover the game.

Also, please add Skygard Arena to your wishlist, it helps a lot to give the game more visibility and bring in more players!

Have fun in the Beta, and see you in the Arena!

The Gemelli Games team

Last week end was a blast, the demo got popular on twitter and reddit. Thanks a ton to everybody who played the game, and especially to those who took the time to provide feedback.

So here are fixes for 3 issues that got mentioned:


The previous textures used for the board were too contrasted. This was a bit distracting and made the board not as easy to read as it could be. So I looked at this again, tested with several new textures, tweaked some colors and we now have something that is a bit more muted, while still preserving the wood look.

You can see in this screenshot the previous one on the left, and the new one on the right.




Many players were eager to start playing when opening up the game, and skipped the tutorial. Honestly, I completely understand, I often do the same. But some skipped it so fast they didn't realise there was a tutorial at all.

So I've added a more prominent button, to at least let you know that there is one, and that it may be useful to read it through. This way, you can at least start it when you want.



Although this doesn't change the fact that tutorials are pretty boring. Ideally there would be no need for one. Or at the very least, information would be slow dripped to the players without interrupting the flow. But since here you need to know how each piece can move from the start, it still feels like a dedicated tutorial is hard to avoid.

We'll see, maybe there is a better way, I'm still thinking about it.


In chess, there are a bunch of criteria on wikipedia that defines if castling is allowed or not. When I implemented this move, I looked those criteria up to be extra sure of what I had to put in code. And I looked them up again. And again. And then I was pretty sure I got that right. But turns out I got overzealous and added a rule that did not exist! That invented rule was that you couldn't castle if you had been in check before. Thankfully a kind player pointed it out. So I removed that, and now you can properly castle following the official chess rules.

That's it for now. There is more feedback I'm thinking about and which may or may not make it in the game. We shall soon see!

One of two our devs is going to play Dice Captain on the lifestream. Join us!

Greetings Pilots,

We are deep underway on our next major update which is going to be bringing new ship skins, run customization, upgrades, enemies and something secret we have been working on.

In the meantime, while my partner slaves away at the code I've been feeling very inspired by old SNES box arts and the style of them. I was experimenting and have created a version of the main store capsule with those retro vibes:





I'm considering changing it to the new store capsule but would love to know what you guys think first. Is it an improvement, or a downgrade?


In other news, the Plunderer seems to have taken a turn through the wrong wormhole...



We'll have to get back to you on that one...

Thank you all for your patience with us in getting this big update out. It should hopefully bring a lot to the table that people have been asking for in terms of variety and we really can't wait to let you play!
