As we walk into a new decade, the experience of creating and launching a game has given us a lot of insight into how to move forward confident in our abilities as a studio. We've grown this past year with Emberlight and our wonderful community with well over a thousand folks that have given us a chance so far but there's always room to improve. We strive for a 10 outta 10 with our future games, and it starts with self-critiques which we'll breakdown in a three-parter leading into our new game in production. |
Any issues with the patch, please report them to us on our discord server or discussions tab on Steam. |
Join us on Friday, October 4th at 9 pm EDT, for an Emberlight Developer Stream with BoyAzazel68, on Twitch at https://twitch.tv/boyazazel68. Our Lead Developer, Vaernus, will be offering his commentary as they play the game together on the stream. We plan on giving away game keys to the lucky winners during the stream. We will also be discussing the new and upcoming changes coming to the game, Dungeon Master Mode, Single Player, Co-op, and Multiplayer Mode. |

Along with this feedback, we have also adjusted our future plans with Emberlight. Originally planned for a December release, Dungeon Master mode has been shifted to a late October, early November launch. Dungeon Master mode adds the ability for stories to be created in a simple but feature-rich toolkit within Emberlight. These stories can be shared on a public marketplace or hosted with friends. Players can then access these stories in single player story mode, play these with their friends in the upcoming co-op mode, or join DMs in hosted experiences. Dungeon Master mode looks to provide a virtual tabletop experience while the simplicity of the story creator means that constructing a story should be equivalent to planning a pen and paper adventure. The hands on (DM controls entire game) and hands off (DM spectates and can make changes) then allow different ways to interact with the party in a story. And with the aimed support of the mobile and Switch platforms, DMs and players alike will be able to bring this experience anywhere. Were super excited for Dungeon Master mode as a major milestone not only for development, but something weve wanted for a long time ourselves. Some of the team are tabletop players, and have wanted a way to be able to play with friends worldwide in a system closely matching what theyd do on their Friday night sessions. Hopefully we can bridge the gap between the open imagination of a pen and paper game with the story creator and gameplay mechanics emulating that as closely as possible.

P.S. Our Initial Reddit AMA we scheduled on 8/14, we had to postpone due to scheduling conflicts with Reddit so we moved it to Twitter. |
If you have any more suggestions, feeling chatty, or need support, simply join our community on Discord to speak with us. Thanks Quarter Onion Games |
Have you watched the launch trailer, or better yet tried the game, and wondered what was going through our heads when we created Emberlight? Why am I killing off my own party? I have to kill my old corrupted Pyromancer with his Brutal Charge, Meteor Strike, and Nova?!
(We are moving the Reddit AMA to Sunday) |
So we have finally reached the finish line (of sorts) for Emberlight. What does that mean for Emberlight over the next few months? And more importantly, what is up the sleeves of our team over the next year or two? Read on, dear reader, and well go down the path of Trinity. |

Unless there are any major issues, this will be the beta candidate which should be official next week. We'll then be focusing on the remaining bug fixes, polish, and any tweaks we need to iron our gameplay from internal tests.

Watch the Emberlight dungeon run, as the Youtuber, Off Beat Reheat plays the first level and tutorial quest for the game. He did a fantastic job demonstrating the game. He took his time allowing the viewer to become part of the experience by allowing them to see what is happening at all times. |

Co-op (October) Starting in October, up to 3 players will be able to join up and complete quests for the Ember Order together. This mode (at this point in design phase) will have a few adjustments to how it functions compared to Standard mode, but largely be the same. Players will each take their turn in combat, and be able to discuss out their progression through the level.
Dungeon Master (December) This is a mode we're most excited for. It was requested from a handful of pen and paper fans that were looking for a way to be able to play a game that more closely mirrored the feel of those games without having to coordinate somewhere locally. The end result is a (we hope) virtual pen and paper experience that can be played globally.
Competitive (March) As this is a few modes rolled into one, we're expecting a longer development cycle to complete. Competitive is, at the moment, split between three modes: Arena, Asymmetric Competitive, and Symmetric Competitive. These each provide new ways to compete amongst the community and claim dominance.
General Outside the large modes we have planned above, we will be constantly be adding content post launch to expand out the options within the game. The main content updates include new abilities, new party members, new quests, new themes, and new units.
We are always looking for feedback on every front of development. As we still have three months before launch, there's still plenty to do to refine the core game experience. If anyone has any input on anything (art, audio, gameplay, etc), we always welcome it via our various channels. We'd recommend joining our Discord server as we're always around to respond, and can quickly plug the feedback in to see what can be done from it. - Quarter Onion Games |
