It's important to know about the ongoing changes in the game, but the standard Steam News reaches people late.

Following an audience analysis, it was decided to create a Telegram channel instead of a Discord server. This is a test solution, which may be revised in the future.

This Telegram channel will have up-to-date information about changes, updates, events and other important things.

The information will be duplicated in Russian and English.

Hello there!
BloodLight Demo has just been released. Please note that this is an early access demo and may contain some bugs. Thank you.

Important note:
When releasing and testing the Bloodlight Demo on steam there were complications. For some reason the demo cannot be downloaded but it is on steam. We are addressing the issue with Steam and it should be resolved in a few days. If anyone knows how to fix this please contact Galactic Games support. Early access launch is scheduled for June 24, 2024.

Galactic Games Support: https://galacticgames.site/contact

• Recently encountered proximity voice chat issues this problem has been solved for now by a walkie talkie that is always on but can be turned off.

Differences between BloodLight Demo and Preliminary Access:

• Join our Galactic Discord Server!
  
• Galactic Instagram
  
• Galactic TikTok
  
• Galactic YouTube

- Team Galactic Games

Mechs are being improved:
- There is now a retargeting done when importing animation.
You first need to define your idle angles. Then the game will compare both source and target idle angle to apply the animation angles.

- East vs West control scheme:
It is now possible to select between two controls scheme:
East will pilot like a player, for a dynamic feel like in Japanese animation (hence the name)
West will pilot more like a tank.

- New Bust limb option for rotator. The bust will essentially act like a tank turret for West tank: it will follow the player mouse.

- Jump ability. It is possible to jump. Hold the key longer for a bigger jump. This feature will be improved.

Hotfixes:

• #5817 Key added are blocked by default with symmetry.
  
• - Preview ground works with foot rotator facing upwards
  
• #5776 Docking can take too much time to complete

Thanks for playing!

What's new:

• No Ads purchase now is accompanied with Gems;
  
• Restored Legendary Wakizashi lost in the previous build;
  
• Technical improvements;

Hello Adventurers,
It’s been a few months since our last major update, and with summer and the summer sale approaching, we’re excited to share the upcoming content with you. Given the extensive nature of this update, we wanted to give you an early heads-up. The V1.2 update will be released on June 25th, just before the summer sale, and the game will be available at a 33% OFF discount until the end of the sale.

With this update, "Hero's Adventure" has been continuously updated for over a year. Our team remains passionate about the game and will continue to provide new content after this update. Additionally, a mobile version of the game is in progress. It will be a faithful port of the original PC version, not a pay-to-win MMO. More news will be shared by the end of the month.

——————————
In addition to the extensive content update in version 1.2, we have also made progress on our early concept of "sect management" - DLC "The Great Conquest". However, rather than calling it a DLC, it’s more like a mini-game within Hero’s Adventure.

"Play as the leader of one of the 19 sects, conquer other sects, and ultimately unify Jianghu to bring peace to the chaotic world."

*DLC1 does not affect the base game. It's an experimental project the team worked on during their free time and is not a mandatory purchase. It’s more like buying the team a cup of coffee if you enjoy sect management gameplay. Thank you!

We will also continue to develop other forms of DLC. A more formal expansion pack, DLC2, is already in the planning stages. However, this is not the focus for now, as the V1.2 update is the main content you can play in the base game.

——————————
With the crisis at Ten Thousand Beast Manor in the Southwest resolved, you return to the Central Plains, only to find people looking at you strangely. Rumors are spreading that you have committed all sorts of atrocities. Investigating further, you find that this is connected to the fSoutheast's Duke Chai...

Speaking of Duke Chai, the current Duke Chai is known as a generous person who likes to make friends with people from Jianghu. As long as you earn his favor, he can help you, whether you're being hunted by enemies or have committed crimes. With his birthday approaching, everyone wants to celebrate it.

However, recently, the Ye Family Battalion has received urgent reports of chaos caused by the Yue Barbarians and pirates, making the Southeast a dangerous place. Ye Pengju can only send 1,000 soldiers as reinforcement since the Yan Yun Iron Army in the north might make a move.



Shen Wuqi of Night Demon Square, Dugu Jianyi of Langya Sword Pavilion, Lai Tou Dian of Shifa Temple, Ling Mengdie, Jiang Ziyan, and Yan Rurui of the Maiden House all have their own stories, secrets, or requests for help...

Yan Ge Xing has been away from Jianghu for so long that he no longer understands the needs of newcomers. He re-examines his previous teachings and realizes they lack detail. If he had another chance, he would teach the young heroes more meticulously.

Qin Huizhi and Tong Daofu at Dali Temple previously abused their power, but now, informed by the Wind News Platform, they understand the strength of Jianghu and are wary of those with high status, fearing retaliation...

I believe many of you have noticed that the outbreak of monsters has become increasingly severe recently, and we are seeing more and more of these previously unknown creatures. Their bizarre forms and swift movements present a growing threat, and our arsenal, whether it be traditional AKs or modern laser guns, seems increasingly inadequate. Even worse, our conventional weapons are virtually ineffective against these peculiar newcomers— hold on, I'm not suggesting they are aliens, as I didn't mention "aliens" at all.

In these uncertain and fearful times, our beloved Mayor WTn (sorry, I promised not to disclose his full name) is taking proactive measures. Through his personal resources and networks, he plans to import a batch of special weapons from a city destroyed by war and radiation. Details about these weapons remain a mystery, and it is said that even the materials used are of an unprecedented, unknown alloy.
Hey, here are some blueprints and designs of these mysterious weapons that accidentally leaked from the mayor's office—just between us:






From these blueprints, it's clear that these new weapons are nothing like the ones we've used in the past. They boast complex mechanical structures and a cyberpunk aesthetic, seeming to blend traditional with futuristic technology. It certainly piques one's curiosity as to how much of an edge these weapons from afar might provide us.

The mayor has revealed that although the routes connecting us to the outside world have been severely damaged, it will take some time for these weapons to arrive—the transportation process is full of uncertainties. However, he assures us that no matter how long it takes, these new weapons will eventually safely reach Golden Bay, giving us a significant boost to counter this unprecedented onslaught of monsters.

Dear residents, even though the situation seems dangerous and helpless at the moment, there is no need to despair. New hope and assistance are on their way. Let's look forward to the day they arrive and prepare ourselves for it.

Join our community efforts to protect our homeland! Your involvement and vigilance are crucial as we unite to safeguard Golden Bay. Together, we can overcome these threats and ensure the safety and security of our beloved city.

Stay vigilant, stay strong—the future of Golden Bay is still bright.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you who has supported Twilight Sonata Studio over the years. Your support and care have helped us grow continuously on this journey, filled with both achievements and challenges. Your companionship has made it all worthwhile.

With the summer sale approaching, those who haven't yet purchased our games will now have the chance to do so at great prices. We look forward to your visit.

We also wish all our friends success in their studies, good health, and smooth sailing in their work in the coming year!

In addition, as we say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, we're thrilled to announce that our new game, Fruit: Chain Effect, will be released! We warmly invite everyone to follow and support us.
