Lord of Rigel - Ace
What We've Done Over Early Access
Lord of Rigel opened to Early Access on October 4, 2022. We initially aimed for a nine month Early Access period but based on your feedback more substantial overhauls to the game UI and AI were done over Early Access. Over 2023 we completed the core features in the Early Access Roadmap, and this year we've done additional optimizations, bug fixes, and new features.

We're pleased to announce that August 26 is the planned end of Early Access,

  • Additional ground combat units
  • Research Victory
  • Grand Menaces

In addition to these we've added numerous quality of life features based on your feedback (not an exhaustive list, but the major ones):
  • Leaders
  • Ship Refitting
  • Strategic AI overhaul
  • User Interface reskin and color selection
  • Event ticker filter

For Returning Players
If you are returning to LoR after a while please check in the FAQ on deleting persistent settings and the input save files and .ini. Over early access we've done many changes to these files so starting with fresh settings and game saves will solve issues you might have with odd key bindings and setting behaviors.

Common Issues and Resolving Them

Reporting issues
We want to focus on any remaining game breaking bugs and critical balance issues but welcome any additional quality of life improvements. Through EA we've incorporated the vast majority of player feedback as new QOL improvements.

Rasvyat Nuclear Power Station - Thxtnt
Rasvyat has released 3 days late, sorry for that, however it is now out, there's currently no in game tutorial, sorry, however the game is now available.

There are currently a lot of bugs however they will be resolved in the coming weeks, there is a multiplayer issue where the player may get stuck on the "Spawning Player" screen on some lobbies, the only real solution currently is to press ALT - F4 to force exit the game and host your own lobby, sorry for any inconvenience.

It's finally here!

The long awaited controller support update has just rolled around. It is important to note that there is not yet controller support for menus (that is coming with the final act, trust me) but I wanted to release one last update to address urgent changes before the final act's release. See the patch notes below!

Patch notes
  • Added gameplay controller support.
  • Removed motion blur.
  • Fixed a bug with enemy navigation in the slime ocean, along with other various smaller bugs.

I hope you enjoy!

Dungeons & Kingdoms: Prologue - Camlann Producer
KINFOLK,

As you know, we've built up this kingdom for what seems like ages. You've been with us every step of the way, and for your loyalty we are eternally grateful.

We come to you to ask for your loyalty once more. We ask that you follow us to our new kingdom -- our NEW Dungeons and Kingdoms Steam page -- so that we may flourish and prosper on new lands together.



This page won't phase away into the ether, though! Instead, we will be working on a small prologue - a morsel of what Dungeons & Kingdoms has to offer for you to try. If you want to keep an eye on the prologue, this is still the place for you. Alternatively, all information for the full game will be available on the new Steam page!

For the Kingdom!

If you'd like to see the official royal decree, please follow our new Steam page for more information.

For the Kingdom!
Heretical - Heretical
Greetings lost souls!

The big news is that we have released the official Steam Demo for Heretical last week!



That's a really big milestone for us, since this is the first time that Heretical is publicly available for anyone to try.

Also, we've already released two patches for the Demo, which fix some of the bugs that were found, as well as introduce some new game mechanics and a couple of smaller improvements. You can check the full list of the changes here: Changelog

One of the major improvements to the Demo, and the game itself, came with the update 0.1.6d on July 15th, where we've introduced Cursed Items. This mechanic makes the Darkness and the fight with the Unnamed Abyss actually worthwhile.



Here's how it works:

When the Darkness consumes you and you manage to fight your way out of it, your highest-quality item gets cursed. In this process, it gains 1 or 2 powerful additional stats, as well as one detrimental effect.

However, cursed items can't be replaced by normal means, meaning you won't be able to simply discard it by picking up another item for that slot. Instead, whenever you kill a Boss enemy, such as Matron Amara, one random Cursed item will be cleansed - it will retain one of the bonus stats, lose the detriments, and become discardable again.

This way you can increase the potency of your items, but you'll have to take extra care about killing enemies and choosing which path to take in order to utilize a cursed item to its fullest potential.

We're having soooo much fun with Cursed Items, so we hope you'll enjoy this mechanic as much as we do!

That’s all for now, talk to you soon.
