We are working hard on the 3.0 for Hero Siege. Currently we are re-writing the networking code and working on rest of the weapon attack animations etc. The Networking code re-write will feature the system where clients are no longer host dependent, everyone can go wherever in the game they please so if the host leaves a zone the clients wont longer follow the host. What we have already done: - Cleaned all the code in the game, removed around 10000 lines of useless code. - Ported Hero Siege from GMS1 to GMS2 - Made loading and saving 10 times faster - Made animations for every weapon in the game by hand, yes pixel art in this is kinda crappy since you cant just make a model and put it into a skeleton like in 3D - Improved a boat load of things in the game art, sound and game play wise.
Here are the notes for what they are now, we will have a longer list closer to beta:

GENERAL

- Whole game engine re-programmed for better performance - Max level lowered to 100 - All loot is now hand crafted, no more spell weapons with strength etc. - Due to new loot statistics and hand crafting there is now way more variety in the game! - Weapons now have types, and only specific classes can use specific types - Removed Chest / Helm synergies from the game. - You can now shoot 360 degrees, any direction you desire. - Saving and Loading improved for faster speed. - View Port for the game is now 1024x576 instead of 966x544

Content

- Weapons now show on your character! (This part took LONG!) - Added 8 unique hand crafted dungeons for EACH ACT! - Added 7 new runes

Balance

- Difficulties lowered to 3 (Normal, Nightmare, Hell) - Enemies now scale based on Areas and difficulty, not player level - Difficulties now only increase loot drop chance instead of quality - iLevel is now capped, and items can be upgraded up to level 10 with satanic dust and rubies. - Runes no longer have star levels, drop rates are much lower and upgrades cost more but are instant and have a 100% success rate - Max rune level is now 6 - Classes no longer have stat synergies that dont work on them (STR classes wont have ENERGY, and wise versa)

Graphics

- All loot graphics have been re-made with a higher quality standard - Added enemy death animations

Sound

- Soundwork in the game improved, added unique death sounds to all enemies and more! - Added ambient & athmospheric sounds - Added unique attack swing sounds to all weapons - Tuned the overall sound levels, mixed by our new sound guy - Lowered music sound levels
