Hey guild leaders!! Bad news, apparently after last hotfix update some player's third save slot got replaced by the playtesting save I used. Apologies if your save got affected by this! If it did feel free to contact me on the Steam forums or on the Discord with exactly what was lost and I'd be happy to recreate the save for you to the best of my ability (or if you haven't run the game yet, you might be able to recover your third slot save from Steam's cloud: https://store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorage) I rolled back the update for now so players who haven't updated their game since the 25th should be fine - not sure how this happened but I'll try to set up systems to prevent things like these occurring in the future again. -David

Hey Guild Leaders! This last week and a half I've been working more on the upcoming classes and floors -

I've also made the Sewers look better with smoother walls. Grasses and pipes sprout from the fetid water now too.
In addition to that, I started working on the upcoming mushroom area - but it's still very very early and work-in-progress.

I've added spawning for Foes in the Sewers now, who lurk in wait for their victims - as well as some skills for the new classes:
Duelist: A thousand cuts - which lengthens and empowers existing bleed on target as well as triggering it.
Duelist: Exploit - Which deals big damage depending on which status the enemy is afflicted by, with more damage the longer an enemy has "incapacitate".

Equipment Rewards

21 New Equipment Items!

Commoner equipment set AND Noble equipment set, each with their own unique items. [/olist] At the moment there's 10 new equipment items for the Commoner set and 11 new equipment items for the Nobles. Full change log: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1464220/view/3664289336086423292 I plan on adding more over time, hopefully next week alongside the UI improvements and throughout early access. Another thing I want to note is: currently the only way to unlock these items is through finishing quests, but in a few months when the faction system is added, these will be available through a faction shop or the armory.

Visual Improvements

I increased the post-processing effects in the current build to make things look better - so players at the "Good" and "Ultra" settings might notice a slight difference. It shouldn't affect the frame-rate, but if you experience a slow frame-rate following the update, please let me know and I'll restore it to the previous settings. In the future these visual settings will be customizable through the pause menu too.

Other Thoughts

I feel like I didn't have enough time to improve the visuals of goals this update with everything else that's being added - so I'll reserve that for next week.

What's Next?

Interface Improvements -a week Making the interface prettier and more comfortable! Also adding more equipment for the Commoner and Noble sets. City of Mist - Metal Update -two to three weeks New enemies and more. Stay tuned! Multiple City of Mist Improvements -??? Adding more content to the City of Mist across multiple game-updates while secretly working on new areas and classes behind the scenes... before a big update in a few months!!!
Idle animation for an enemy in the upcoming "Sewers" area And that's all for this update! Thank you for reading and hope you enjoy the new items and goals :D -David

Hey Guild Leaders! I ended up spending most of this week on fixing bugs but... I did find some time to add one handy little system...
Wait... what is a "rules codex"? It's meant to be an "in-game manual" of sorts - containing: [olist]

Few handy tips for those who need 'em. [/olist] You may recognize it from the Full Release: Will, Want, Maybe post - it's named "Tutorial encyclopedia system" there.
You can access it yourself in the newest version via the pause menu - in the future I'd like to add other ways to access it too, as well as adding additional entries and prettying it up. I also want to note - it's not meant to replaces player guides in any way. instead it's just meant to be a handy reference for rules for players who want to refresh their knowledge on some things from the tutorial and for those who need some basic tips for how to strategize.

So... What's next?

[strike]I might spend tomorrow fixing a handful of other things[/strike], but right afterwards! Mist City Enrichment -About three weeks New enemies! New equipment! more drops from existing enemies. Improved and/or added oddities. I also want to fix the issue where returned / crafted items disappear if you return to a full inventory that has no room for them during this update. New Goals and Quests -A week to two weeks New quests for the new areas as well as improved rewards for various factions. This is far from being the last City of Mist update too - I have a few more planned out. More on that in the future (: Thank you for checking out this update! -David

Hello Guild Leaders! This last week a whole lot of bugs were fixed - including inventory glitches, "ability uses" not being stored properly with trinkets, and others!
Even this weird bug where text bubbles were cut off was fixed! So now that Netherguild is far more stable... Next up, for a week to two weeks I plan on adding a handful of skills to the game for build variety, as well as the infrastructure for updating skill trees in existing saves when they get modified in updates, and some possible much needed re-balances. Might add some extra polishing and equipment too if time allows! If you have ideas and suggestions for new skills you'd like to see on any of the current classes / backgrounds, feel free to share them as comments on this post or in the #brainstorming channel on the Discord! (:
Also, I'm never really away from bugfixing - But since Netherguild became a lot more stable, I am shifting my focus towards new content... for now. As always, if there's persistent bugs in the game that weren't fixed so far and you'd like to see fixed in the future, feel free to let me know in the bug reporting forum or via the Discord. Thank you for reading and see you next update! -David

What was added since last week?

Fixing a variety of other smaller crashes, visual bugs etc. [/olist] Most of everything was done! Pretty happy about completing 3.5/4 of these, knowing that deck players can have an easy time with synced saves & that no player will be blocked by terrain again :D You can read more about some of these improvements here: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1464220/view/3703688858575095512?l=english https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1464220/view/3703688858590554064?l=english

What's being worked on this week?

Since there are still many things I want to fix & improve as well as content I'd like to add, I'll do a bit of both next week! I'll focus on remaining fixes & improvements first, and then slowly ease into starting work on new content towards the end of the week.

Near Future Plans

While I can animate and program, sticking to the exact day with long term plans is something I struggle with. Therefore, instead of a full roadmap, I'll share with you a mini-roadmap for now: a collection of near future updates as well as the general game-plan for updating Netherguild! Near future updates include... Skill Up -Week to Two Weeks (Starting next week) A few more skills for existing skill trees, one or more item drops from existing enemies. Will also give me the ability to modify skill trees in existing saves. Overworld Interface and More -Week to two weeks Inspecting characters in guilds shows true stats (rather than starter stats), "Are you sure?" window for firing characters / attacking allies, more info in the dungeon-log and other possible improvements. Mist City Enrichment -Two to three weeks New enemies! New equipment! more drops from existing enemies. Improved and/or added oddities. New Goals and Quests -A week to two weeks New quests for the new areas as well as improved rewards for various factions. As you can see, my general idea is to improve the City of Mist (as well as the other two areas to a lesser extent, and the game in general) over these next few months before marching confidently towards adding some of the big systems (faction system with new classes?) and more new areas. If there's something specific you'd like me to add that isn't mentioned here, feel free to comment on this post or in the Discord! (: Also... this might be the final "Week X update"! - instead I'll switch to more specific update names (and/or monthly updates if I'm working on something big), as well as regular patch notes. Thank you for playing Netherguild and for checking out this update! -David

[ 2023-04-11 14:34:04 CET ] [ Original post ]

Change log 10/4/2023 | Version 0.201 Bugfixes:

• Fixed loading crash with dead player characters (Community find by |) |_)
• Fixed eating corrupted crystal shrimp leg ability disappears (this does NOT fix it in existing save files. Community find by Juke)
• Fixed progression-blocking because of stairs in city of mist as well! (by changing how random tile-heightening works. Community find by DatLamp)

• Fixed can walk into Mist City Shrine oddity (community find by Pyrowyrm Pata)

During these two weeks of early access, a few players encountered this issue:
Blocked from progressing by the terrain itself! This sucks :/ (More examples provided by players Trash & DatLamp):


People messaged me about it through the in-game feedback tool too... :'/


I've heard your plight! these last few days I've been working my hardest on creating an algorithm which makes it so that any room segments (and your path) being blocked by obstacles and oddities is impossible. Some shining examples of newly generated terrain:
Enemies still can & will block your path! >:D (it's their thing)
A bit narrow, but still very reach-able...
(Here the algorithm considers the torch as an obstacle rather than clear tile - Tough luck if you're trying to put it out! but progression is still unstoppable :D)
This will fix tile-blocking for the Bandit Stronghold & Bluestone Mines! If you have existing saves there: -The layout of obstacles might get a bit messed up (loaded enemies appearing where obstacles are). -If the path in your save was blocked, it shall now be unblocked! Apologies if the former causes any temporary inconvenience - This can be fixed by returning from your expedition. I've playtested this new feature throughly, but please let me know if any issues arise. Cheers and thank you for playing Netherguild!
This is a rare issue that might occur in the City of Mist - it will require a different solution, which will take a while longer. ...Now onto other things to fix... I have many bugfixes that piled up these last few days D: Expect more patch notes in the near future! Thank you for your patience. -David

Change log 9/4/2023 | Version 0.2(Y) Bugfixes:

• Fixed obstacles / oddities blocking your path in the Bluestone Mines & Bandit Stronghold

• Fixed visual bug with healthbars falsely appearing full in inventory

Change log 6/4/2023 | Version 0.2(X) Bugfixes:

• Fixed loading softlock with no movement

• Fixed visual bug of healthbar numbers not updating when a unit is being shot when out of your visibility sight
• Possibly fixed descending crash caused by bouncing units (again?)

• Disabled pre-expedition character hover panel being displayed when players are equipping supplies before expedition (because it looked weird).

Change log 6/4/2023 | Version 0.2(W) Bugfixes:

• Possibly fixed descending crash related to pushed "bouncing" characters
• Fixed crash on exiting inspection of character in an underground camp (like the mist city camp)

• Fixed ballista oddity softlock

• Improved & fixed controls screen to account for alt keys (image below). Doesn't count main/alt keys as "already used keys" according to whichever mode is selected.
• Added Steam cloud saves! Note: These might be disabled for a few hours when mac support is added, will give ample warning & an update banner as warning when it happens.

Hey Guild Leaders! Earlier today I added Steam cloud supports and ensured it works great on Windows, Linux, and between a computer and the Steam deck with the help of a few players (special thanks to Elo, PureParadox and SafetyValve). What does this mean? If you just use a single machine, nothing changes for you! (besides your saves also being backed up on the cloud now, just in case). If you use multiple computers / Steam deck and have existing saves in both, make sure you don't have saves in the same slot because they might get overwritten - you can check your local saves on Windows & Linux by right clicking on Netherguild on Steam -> Netherguild_Data/StreamingAssets folder and backing up your save files (look like: SaveData1.save for the first slot for example). Do note that cloud saves might be disabled for a few hours / a day at some point in the future when Mac support is added. This is because Mac uses a different location for save files and it'd have to be implemented differently. When that happens, I'll be sure to let you know in a news update on Steam and in-game for the duration cloud saves are inactive. Thank you for reading! -David

Change log 4/4/2023 | Version 0.2(V) Fixes:

• Fixed Supply Depot oddity "kicked supply depot" event not dropping logs. (Community find by DatLamp)
• Fixed "Heavy Tipped Arrow" lacking arrow projectile (Community find by Wreve)
• Fixed level up skill "Noble Blood" - return to the overworld and descend to regain it. (Also possibly fixed issues with health ups. Community find by DatLamp)

Netherguild has RELEASED in EARLY ACCESS!

Follow Development:

...Can you believe it? I started working on Netherguild back in 2018 when it looked like this:
Since then, I've poured blood, sweat and tears (both literal and figurative) into it these last 5 years - -and it'll finally launch in Early Access next week!
But really, it couldn't have done it without your support. Thank you for playing the public demo over these last few years - Netherguild wouldn't have been half as good as it is today without your feedback.
Obviously it's not the end of the road but just another step towards finishing Netherguild - with that being said, I'm really excited for everything I plan to add during early access - from the new areas and classes to the story and faction system.
I hope you're just as excited as I am! It'll be a long road full of trials and challenges, but it also contains many rewards for the brave of heart. I don't know if there's anything more symbolically fitting for this game!

[previewyoutube=Sn75aKmif1U;full][/previewyoutube] Netherguild will release in Early Access on the 27th of March 2023! HYPE

Hey Guild Leaders! Welcome to the January monthly update. This update is a tad bit late - however, it's also a big update! Including news from both January and December. Let's get into it!

New Enemies

• Regenerating grubs heal every turn yet deal very little damage, being persistent little buggers that are tough to kill.
• Growing grubs increase in size, health and damage every turn (up to a limit). It's better get rid of them early on!

New Menu

Trailer Draft

One step away...

Hey guild leaders! For the new year, I wanted to share some of what I worked on in 2022 and my plans for 2023 and beyond.
Bossfight against "pig", the leader of the purple bandits. No, he doesn't say "happy new year" in-game

2022 Overview

• Steam Demo
• Initial upgrading system for buildings in the overworld
• Improved inventory screen
• Vastly improved loot
• Visual effects that make Netherguild look amazing
  
• A whole lot of bugfixes, quality of life improvements and more, thanks to the community! <3

• A system for "pits" - will let you push enemies (or be pushed) into a lower floor!
• The Bandit Stronghold - a new area with a bossfight, 3 unique non-boss enemies (so far, possibly more before / after release), and 4 oddities.
  The living quarters of bandits - various oddities will appear here.
  A bandit fire-breather - watch out for these guys in prolonged fights.
  "Help!" Will you save this poor stranded soul?
• The city of Mist - a new area with 7 unique enemies (more being worked on!), 5 oddities, unique equipment and the "Mist" itself - a tough environmental hazard!
  A machine guardian has been defeated
  Bridges that swing in subterranean wind
  

Early Access Release

Fin

Hey Guild Leaders! Welcome to the November monthly update. To those unfamiliar with these, I write a bit about Netherguild's development progress on the first Friday of each month and post it here on Steam (: Without further ado, here's some of what I've been working on this month:

New oddities

New enemies

More boss progress

Other details

Done! for now

Change log 25/11/2022 | Version 0.19(H) Bugfixes:

• Fixed crashed caused by using WASD for movement and passing through ally positions standing on tiles that appear available (Community find by Napsalm)

• Fixed "alt" buttons in controls window for smaller screens (Community find by Pure Paradox)
• Fixed combat turn order going out of track when UI scaling changes (community find by Napsalm)

Change log 14/11/2022 | Version 0.19(F) Quality of life:

• Added character healthbars in dungeon inventory (Anonymous community suggestion)

• Fixed another crash caused by recent movement changes

• Changed camera to also move on the up and down axis when following characters and projectiles (this is for the boss battle that's being added)
• Changes with being able to move camera during bonfire

Change log 7/11/2022 | Version 0.19(F) Bugfixes:

• Fixed crash caused by recent movement changes

Hey Guild Leaders! Welcome to the October monthly post. This one has some big news and more progress on the new areas! Without further ado, here's some of what I've been working on this month:

Delayed release date

More Enemies

Sound Effects

Boss Battle

Misc.

Quality of Life

Danger Tiles

Mist City Elevator

Until next time...

Change log 2/11/2022 | Version 0.19(E) Bugfixes:

• Fixed crash caused by stealing shrimp eggs

• Characters automatically get on the elevator if an ally stands on it already. This should make for less fiddling with the elevator. It's well playtested, but let me know if you encounter any softlock bugs with this one.

• Fixed resting near bonfire with an item on the floor causes inventory to open incorrectly
• Fixed saving player nickname for feedback now sends it properly too
• More centered camera zoom during bonfires
• Some oddity options display currency

• "Oddities" with currency-based options now can display currency panel (for example "logs" oddity)

• Fixed "Adjacent" text bugging out and appearing out of in-dungeon inventory
• Fixed "the pirate" in drunk bandit oddity

Important news, Guild Leaders! Netherguild's early access will be delayed to around February 2023. After much deliberation, I decided to delay release since I felt like I wouldn't have enough time to add all the fun & rare stuff that the new areas need to really shine - and that if I release in November, the new areas wouldn't be up to the same level of polish as the existing ones. It feels wrong to release the new areas as relatively barren of cool surprises and variety, only to add that and fix everything after release. Therefore, as much as delaying sucks and I really wanted to release it this year, releasing Netherguild properly instead feels like the right move. What does it mean for development? I'm going to continue at the same pace - though now, I'll have time to properly playtest everything thoroughly & implement all the extra content the new areas need to be as fun as possible. I could also address some other aspects of the game which bug me and players - like quality of life stuff and other improvements that make the game more fun to play. Cheers and thank you for your patience, -David

Change log 11/10/2022 | Version 0.19(C) Bugfixes:

• Fixed camera position reset crash
• Fixed hovering over some attacks too quickly (ranger?) causes crash
• Fixed characters complaining about friendly fire from status damage

• Made buttons of skill tree make more sense (only shown as available when skill points are available)
• Fixed "burning" text appears for fire spreading even when the fire just burnt out
• In tutorial, says "press q / e ... to continue" now (to make it clearer its needed for progression).
• Fixed loaded bonfire ashes play sound on start

• Added red "lack of proficiency warning" to the overworld too

Hey Guild Leaders! This month I worked a lot on the new areas. Without further ado, here's some of what I've been working on during September.

Hey Guild Leaders! This month I worked a lot on the new areas. Without further ado, here's some of what I've been working on during August.

Procedural Tile Heights

Procedural Stairs

Pushing with tiles of different Heights

Visuals & Fog

Planning Out The Entire Game

Release Date?

- Until Next Time -

Summery of weekly updates over on the Netherguild Discord Hey Guild Leaders! here's some of what I've added to Netherguild during July. This is a big update, so let's get into it!

Status Effect Improvements

Fire Increases Visibility

Fire Spreads

• Makes fire-based builds feel a lot more interesting and unique
• Turns burning units into hazards; perhaps incapcitating a burning enemy keeps it safely far away from you, or having to step away from a burning enemy keeps the battlefield more dynamic.
• Fighting a burning unit in melee for too long is bad, seeing how you'll end up recieving the status yourself and getting damage until combat ends or the status expires!
• Unexpected creativity - things like adding "burn" to an enemy adjacent to an explosive barrel to ignite it!

Poison Triggers After Attacking Too

Falling System Complete

Quality of Life Additions

Summery of weekly updates over on the Netherguild Discord Hey Guild Leaders! Here's some of what I've been working on in May. It includes new content, new loot, and new systems in the works. HYPE!

Visual Effects

New & Upgraded Loot

New Systems!

Building Upgrading

Hidden Talents

Next Fest

-Game Over-

Key Features:

Additional Features:

• Roguelite with Persistence and Story: Keep your characters at the end of each expedition (if they survive), equip them with powerful items and level them up over time. Netherguild's story progresses the more you explore and find out about the secrets of its world.
  
• Dungeon Crawling Resource Management: Powerful abilities have a limited amount of uses. Your characters have limited inventory space. What is more important? The priceless loot you bring up back to the surface, or the firewood logs that let you descend even deeper?
  
• Original Game World: Netherguild may be fantasy, but don't expect it to play by genre conventions at all; No Orcs, no Elves, and no wizards casting fireballs. Expect to find strange biospheres and denizens far underground.
  
• Cute Voxel Aesthetics: Contrasted by a story with serious themes, as you face against plague and conspiracy!
  
• Solo Developed: I'm always happy to get feedback, suggestions and inspiration from players. You can reach me through various channels such as my twitter, the Netherguild discord and Netherguild Steam forum. If you love Netherguild, dislike something about it, or you have a fantastic idea you think should be added to the game, please let me know! :D

Early Access: Risks, Plans and Expectations:

• Risks: It's possible that during development, I would run out of money and wouldn't be able to continue full time development.
  If that were to happen, I'll take up part time or full time work and develop Netherguild in my spare time. This game will be finished as long as I'm physically able to work on it.
  I'm doing everything in my power to combat this risk - for example, marketing and getting to a certain number of wishlists before release should prevent it from ever occurring - but I think it's still important to be honest about risks like this before release.
  If you want Netherguild to be successful, help me out! Let your friends, favorite streamer or gaming news site know about this game (:
  
• Plans: Updates will happen in regular intervals; With a new update every week to three weeks. I would like to have weekly / bi-weekly updates for the most part, but of course that depends on development, with bigger changes taking longer to update, but containing more content and additions.
  
• Expectations: Expect progress to be slow and steady- being a solo dev means I can't finish the game in a year, and big updates will take time. Also, expect me to always be active on the Netherguild discord during Early Access, listening to your feedback.
