I've been trying not to worry too much about keeping the demo in good shape as since we've started started production of content and focusing on the final game. But since there's been a large number of people playing and even "Let's Playing" the demo, I've decided it was time to make some Quality of Life updates to it. Most notably, these are some of the changes...
- Ability to skip cutscenes through the Esc Menu
- Updated Quest Log interfaces in Journal
- Better Game Feel when aiming and more feedback on hit
- Improved spell casting controls
- Simplified tutorial segment slightly
- Fixed save game errors
- Fixed "PC Destroyed" error that occurred when you fell into a pit after dying
- Optimization to intensive maps like Noxrose South
- General Optimizations to performance
Over the last few days, we've gotten some bug reports and performance reports that have helped us make some important decisions and fix some bugs. Here are the changes:
- Fixed bug causing players to get stuck in staircase in Azufelt Train Station.
- Fixed bug causing players to get stuck when moving between Azufelt Train Station and Courtyard.
- Reduced usage of shaders, this should increase performance especially in dream sequence that caused performance issues on PCs without dedicated graphics.
- Disabled Character Silhouette Options for the time beings
Hey Witches & Wizards! Rory here, I'm the developer of StoryArcana. I'll be going Live with some of my team mates and cast members to play the demo, discuss things that are in the game and answer your questions (Really, ask me anything)
Ask Me Anything Livestream
/w Development Team & Cast
Date: 21st June Time: 7PM PDT (California Time) This will be the first time we've done something like this, really excited to talk about the game with anyone interested. Hope to see you then!
What happened since the game was revealed?
Around October of last year, StoryArcana was revealed for the first time ever! I received a ton of feedback and first impressions - based on that, I decided to spend some time making changes to the designs of large portions of the game's visual design.
What's changed?
The core story that I've always wanted to tell hasn't changed, and the gameplay is for the most part still the same as when we first announced it. But we've made some changes to set the world of Nox further apart from another other iconic wizard world. With everything out there on StoryArcana before now practically unrecognizable apart from it's logo, I thought it'd be good to showcase and make it clear what the game is going to look and play like and where it's headed from here on out. Especially because there's some big news below...!
Official Re-reveal Trailer

Steam Next Fest / Demo Release
Lastly, the biggest announcement is that we're going to be releasing StoryArcana's Prologue as a Demo during Steam Next Fest for free! You'll finally be able to visit (a portion) of Azufelt, Academy of the Arcane, and I'm so excited to finally introduce everyone to Clay Quilt and his friends.

It's been a long time coming, but after 2 years of development, StoryArcana is finally on Steam! StoryArcana is an wizard school RPG where you play as Clay Quilt, a young boy transported to a world pouring with magic as part of a one-year exchange programme in Azufelt, Academy of the Arcane. I'll be updating the steam page with a teaser video showing off the current build of the game soon, but do note we are still heavily in development and much is bound to change. Thank you for everyone who has supported us thus far and I hope you will continue to keep updated with our progress!
