The world of Skullborn is a persistent infinite procedurally generated universe that all players join. As you explore you will find other players and their buildings, villages, and other creations.
Skullborn uses a block building system for buildings, weapons, and armor. Building materials can be gathered by defeating elemental creatures. The more difficult they are, the better materials you are rewarded with, and you can create stronger weapons and armor. The weapons and armor replace the bones of your skeleton to result in a completely custom creation!
Improvements to building
Placing block improvements: it shows you exactly what type and shape will be placed and has an outline to increase visibility.
Drag and drop works for all block shapes and all shapes work the same way
Dungeons/Builder
When players die in a dungeon they will respawn at the start of the dungeon.
Added spike blocks. These blocks will kill the player instantly when they fall on them.
Added dungeon checkpoints. If the player reaches a checkpoint and then dies, they will respawn at the checkpoint.
When testing dungeon in the dungeon builder you can take damage, die, and respawn.
Added "place tester position" button. This will allow you to specify where you want to spawn when testing the dungeon so you don't have to constantly repeat parts of the dungeon that you don't want to.
Discord chat integration
The #in-game-chat discord channel will now display player's global chat messages (not local chat) and discord members can respond in the channel and in game players will see the messages
Added a cache to save player made assets locally
This will speed up chunk and dungeon loading times because the client will grab all the assets from your local machine instead of needing them to be sent from the server
But wait, there's more!
Added a "Reset Player" button that will reset your progress (button in Other Settings menu)
Halfed armor spiky damage towards enemies
Tweaked volume of different sound effects
Players will no longer collide with each other
Made death screen a bit nicer than the previous "u ded" screen
Inappropriate words will now be blocked out in chat with *'s
Bug fixes
Fixed bug where player would fall down very quickly when walking off of cliffs
When taking ingots from furnace, they will be added to your crafting palette if there is an open slot
Enemies can no longer walk through doors in dungeons
Enemies will clip through walls much less
Boring stuff
Did a lot of work to stress test the server and clients and used findings to implement a server player limit
Lots of work to automate deployment
The master client (the client that runs the AI for enemies and some other authoritative things) will now switch to the client with the best ping
