Hello fellow Looters,
this is Presbyter letting you in on some insights about KOL and its development and future. I will try my best to give you a short update on whats going on each or at least every other Sunday - hence the name.
Last week we continued to work on the GUI and controls and got to the point where it seemed perfect to get started on customizable controls so the new GUI and controls would take advantage of this right away.
Got pretty far and most of the keyboard input can be re-arranged by the player and his style of playing. Will take a few more days to get all keys re-mapped dynamically but the core system is working.
Work also continued on the new "Hornet's Nest" map and requires some changes on the Word &Emerald Forest Map before release.
At this time of year there is Summer Holidays Season in Germany and like everybody else we also will be out of office for a few days to get a vacation and some rest. The Early Access launch and first weeks of being online took a huge toll on ourselfs and some time to recharge our batteries is something we really look forward to.
We will still be online and check the forums etc - I will also continue to work on the code since its something that actually relaxes my mind, but much more casual and infrequently.
That's all for this week and If it happens you have been - thank you for reading.
Development continues!
Presbyter and his team.

Inspired by the classic 16-bit ARPGs of last decades, KINGDOM·OF·LOOT is a brand-new, completely unique game. It's an ode to the classic 2D action-arcade games such as Secret of Mana™ or The Legend of Zelda™, that became a fundamental part of gaming history and captivated players for many years.
KINGDOM·OF·LOOT seeks to bring back the timeless feel of these classics while answering the question: how would they have been if based in a global mass multiplayer system? An immersive persistent world to explore, tons of loot to collect, new friendships to forge and adventures to live and strongly focuses on collecting, crafting and sharing in-game loot. You decide whether doing it on your own, with a small group of friends, a guild or joining hundreds of other players on your quest for epic gear.
