Hi, Asura Patch Update 27907 is now LIVE!

Tez-Yatra:

Salvage Items

Hello, Since our last update, the two of us at Ogre Head has been working on a new spawn system for the Champion units in Asura. You all shared the feedback mentioning that you were finding it difficult to unlock the champions. This is admittedly our fault in the design because we left it entirely under the shroud of randomness. As a result, some players may never face certain Champion units due to unfavourable RNG. Without spoiling much, we will try to explain how the new spawn system works. We have divided the Champions and distributed them among the three difficulty modes. Champions will unlock as you beat the game in various difficulties. Once unlocked, the units are added to a list of champions. Until you have defeated a particular Champ, they will not randomize. The above method makes it certain that you get the opportunity to face all the Champions in the game, unlocking them in the Aukaad as you defeat them. If you have already beat some Champions, the above system will reset it and will make sure that you get to beat every Champion in the game. However, your Aukaad will remain the same. Along with the above design changes, we have made some additional fixes. Check out the patch log below to learn more about it.

Patch Log:

• Fixed an issue where in the Gold chest would respawn after saving & loading.
• Fixed an issue with some Mini-map icons after saving & loading.
• Fixed an issue wherein stun particle effect would appear on dead enemies.

Hi, We have been busy working on the game, making sure that we are doing our best to make it as epic as possible. In the meantime, we would like to announce that the Beta for Asura has now come to an end. We got a wonderful response from folks all over the world in fact we had about 1000+ people signing up for the demo. It was great to see everyone sharing their feedback and reaching out to us with suggestions. Asura is on the final stretch and as soon as we get closer to the release, we will have a Demo for the game with more contents then what we initially had in the Beta. The beta was intended to be more like a focus testing/QA, where we were hunting for hardware and other compatibility issues which could be encountered while playing the game. We are just two people at Ogre Head and the game we are developing is for PC platform. We don't know the kind of bugs or glitches which can pop-up due to an insanely high amount of Hardware types and models which the players are now using to enjoy their games. Our goal is to make sure that everyone who purchases Asura at least does not face any performance issue and it plays smoothly. We are completely aware that making it fool proof is impossible but we try our best anyways! :) Me and Neeraj, we would both like to thank everyone for taking the time out to play the beta and supporting us. More exciting news coming your way very soon. THANK YOU!

Hello fellow demons! For this week's update, one of the important things we were trying to figure out was how to improve our tutorial. Since you all had mentioned that the it was not fun, we spent some time play-testing about it then utlimately realised that it had to go. Now, we have replaced it with a new system which is much more straight forward. What we have implemented is something akin to how Dark souls approaches it's tutorial. Basically, there will be symbols which will inscribed on the corridor floors and walking over it will reveal pop-ups which will contain 'HINTS' on how to play the game. These pop-ups won't hinder player movement and you are able to freely pass through it. It seems to work for us but ultimately it's you folks who have to let us know whether it is good or not. One of the disadvantages of this new system is that since our level is randomly generated, sometimes, they dont appear in a pattern we intended. Neeraj has tried to use his arcane abilities so that everything works great but let's wait and see how it rolls! Another exciting aspect we are looking forward to is the introduction of the leaderboard for the demo. We have even hosted a weekly torunament from this update onwards. We are calling it 'ULTIMATE DEMON KING' or 'UDK'. More rules can be found in our discord channel here > Join Ogre Head Discord Channel We have also went ahead and polished tons of stuff as well as fixed many issues. We are now working on the UI transitions which is still very much a work in progress. You can know more about the update via the patch log below:

• Fixed an issue where in Asura would get stuck after restarting the game.
• Fixed an issue where in the corridor would already be visible in the mini-map after restarting the game.
• Fixed an issue where in Asura would randomly sink under the ground and would become forever alone! -_-
• Polished the corpses of enemies because they mean a to lot to us.
• Fixed an issue where it would lag on Asura's death. No more excuses when you loose!
• Removed the old tutorial which you all deemed as boring! Do you have any idea how long it took us to make that boring thing. ONE MONTH! :(
• Removed blacksmith in level 1 because we want to make the game unbeatable.
• Added Steam Leader-boards for the demo. Play, Compete, become the Ultimate Demon King!
• Changed the end screen flow for the demo.
• Added 'Hints' as a replacement to tutorial.
• Added in-game timer and score.
• Polished some of the UI transitions.

Hi, Due to most of the work at this point revolving around the game a.k.a making trailers, marketing content and other additional resources, the update does not have any major content additions but yup, we have fixed a ton of issues. There is however this one very ugly issue which has crept up ever since we started sending out the demo. It is the one where upon picking up a meat, it will reflect as 2 meat in the inventory slot where in you won't be able to eat the other one. Well, as I was writing this, Neeraj reproduced it and now we understand the issue. If you press 'A' in controller or Keyboard while picking up the meat, this bug occurs. So for now please be careful as we will patch the issue in the next update. Check out the complete patch log below -

• Updated Saving system. (Note: Previous save files will be lost!)

Hello, We have made some minor as well as drastic changes to the game last week. For instance, there is no health bar any more but instead 'Heart Containers'. If you have been following Asura, you might have played a build long time which had hearts but then we changed it because the health of the player was going way more than what we could show in UI as hearts. But now it's back and we think it's going to stay this way. You might be wondering why the change after all this but we think Hearts represents health and progression better in a game like Asura. To truly understand the nature of the changes, you will have to check out the latest demo! We have also polished some of the main menu and in-game UI elements in the game and we will be working on it more as we head close to release. To know more about the changes and fixed, check out the patch log below!

• Made and added a unique dodge animation for Asura when equipped with a hammer.
• Added new reaction animations for some of the enemies - Vanara and Hathira range units.
