Hey everybody! It’s been a long time since we posted on the dev Log, but well be posting our change log for each update on here from now on!
If you are following the dev log and you haven’t started playing Raven’s Path yet what are you waiting for? Download it right now! https://evilvillaingames.com/ravens-path
We got a ton of feedback in the past couple weeks from play-testers. We are addressing as many things as we can as fast as we can.
This weeks big addition is that we separated hardcore mode and regular mode. In regular mode units will never die permanently in hardcore mode many units will die permanently but with the added benefit of extra rewards we think this game mode should turn out to be as enjoyable as it is challenging!
Here is the change log for the last two weeks. Well be working hard to address the rest of the bugs we have found in the coming weeks. For now we hope you enjoy playing with or without permadeath!
Raven’s Path 0.2.0 Change log
Major Changes
--------------------------------------------
- Hard Core Mode has been introduced
- you may now select between multiple save files at the start screen, hardcore mode, and regular mode
- all current saved games will be converted to regular mode automatically,
in this mode no units will ever die and no items will be lost
- in hardcore mode the first time a unit dies it will be gone forever, and so will any items it is holding
- hardcore mode gives 2 times as much gold and salvage. magic find rates are also 2 times as high
(we are working on a replacement skill for the healer tree skill that allows units to recover from injuries instantly due
to the fact that injuries no longer exist. We are open to suggestions)
General Gameplay
--------------------------------------------
- letting an enemy into the bottom of your screen no longer reduces your total gold
- fixed infantry gold per mission skill not giving gold in some cases. A separate gold card is now given out after
winning each mission to represent this skill.
