Hi,
This week has been super busy with us preparing for Asura showcase at Taipei Game Show 2017 however it has not hindered the progress in development and fixes of the game itself. In-fact, we have fixed a ton of issues and added some new minor features. One of the most exciting element we added is the Asura Voice over in the game. This is just the first pass but you can check it out via the demo. Also, made some significant changes to how the some of the weapons like magic, spear etc would work. The speed of their projectiles has been increased so that the combat feels much more fast paced. Also, we have worked tons of UI stuff which were pending for quite some time.
To check out changes and fixes in detail, have a look at the patch log below:
Polished the Result, Victorious, Death screens.
Optimized the volume for BGM with default settings.
Implemented restart in pause menu so that you can be utlra competitive! :D
Added support for SpeedLink & Intex controller.
Added tons of new options in the gameplay settings. Tweak it to your hearts content!
Removed restriction of interacting with items when near a corpse.
Fixed an issue with Asura footsteps during the bleeding state.
Added the current difficulty text in the pause screen.
Gradient highlight will now fade in and out depending on the distance.
Optimized the auto-aim priority between enemies and breakables.
Attack delays has been optimized resulting in a faster paced combat when using heavy stamina based weapons.
Increased the projectile speed of Boomerang, Magic and Spear Weapon. Swoooosh!
Asura now speaks (this is just the first pass, more on this coming soon)! :D
Tweaked the scoring mechanic. TOP SECRET STUFF!
Asura can now drop consumables from the stash via the HUD.
Thank you for playing the demo and for all the support.
