Hello Adventurers! Here are the patch notes for today's update.

CURRENT QUEST OBJECTIVE:

• The current quest objective is focusing on upgrading the player character controller. This is essentially about "feel". After all, if the game isn't fun to just run around, no one is going to enjoy it.
• Over-the-shoulder aiming for ranged weapons is being added, alongside sticky targeting, double-click to move (for accessibility), and other quality-of-life improvements that should make exploring, adventuring, and combat much more enjoyable.
• You may recall previous updates with the "tank controller" (which also features a combat aspect as well for quick reactions). These new features build upon that foundation to bring more polish and smoother gameplay.

NOTEWORTHY NEWS:

• Seasonal Events are an important part of AEGIS Kingdoms. Theyre an opportunity to connect real-world celebrations with in-game adventures. With Easter upon us, AEGIS Kingdoms celebrates the Festival of New Life!
• You voted, and the community seasonal item this year will be Debbie the Chick a huggable little hatchling companion symbolising new life and spring. Expect to see her waddling by your side soon!
• Our beloved mascot Debbie the Chicken may also be joining the world in-game soon more on that to come.
• Game Master Weapons are now being designed and modelled (such as Arvatons Blade). These are rare weapons earned through specific quests created by the Game Masters themselves. Youll be able to obtain their creations by completing their challenges.
• These new weapons should start appearing in-game by the end of April, with their accompanying quests shortly after.

PATCH NOTES - 12th April 2025

• NEW: Keybindings have officially arrived in AEGIS Kingdoms! You can now customise an increasing number of inputs to suit your playstyle. Suggestions welcome!
• NEW: The settings menu has received a visual overhaul, along with some new settings to help tweak performance.
• FIX: Pressing Escape now closes windows properly. Yes, apparently there was a wrong way thats now gone.
• FIX: Large amount of refactoring with input actions. Instead of referencing pure inputs directly, the game now utilises Unitys new input system. This makes way for better accessibility and expanded controller support.
• NEW: The new input system works in tandem with the keybindings setup, giving players more flexibility and customisation over controls. Feedback always appreciated!
