4th Era: The RuneChild

Scrolls and EasterEggs

I have updated the interface in the spell and enchantment menus.

I have added that you can use Scrolls, to learn spells.

The Orcs has stores now and you can shop stuff there.

There are about 25 Quest now;
Somebody wanted me to add EasterEgg, so there are an Easter Egg hunt now.


I have started working on the Human City called AmberGate, but still needs some work.




And here is the latest trailer for my game:

Spells, Spells, Spells

The spell all have a primary way to work, and I have tested those.
Like a Summon spell works, as a 'self' spell, but not as a target spell.

Here is the Meteor Swarm with a strong power...












The only thing that is missing is the Lich finally five steps.
The spells are there, but the steps still needs to be joined.

This is a vessel where you store your soul, making you immortal.

Making a small patch for the Steam Next Fest

This was just a minor update, for the steam next fest.

I have made trees with fruit and small Plow furrow with vegetables.
If you eat fruits or vegetables you heal a little, but they also gives you other health things.
Apples and Watermelons gives extra health, Citrus adds mana. Small amounts but...

The Orc towns has gotten orcs, and small fields outside them.
(No Quests in that map yet.)

You can sit and fish or sit a few places.
You can sleep in beds, and that will make you heal very fast.


Boats and Butterflies

You can use the boats to sail around the maps.
They stop moving if you hit land...

The Demo is ready for Steam Next..

The Dragons can Attack




The Red Dragon lives in the high north of the map...

The NPC that sells stuff, can be Requested to make special items for you.
The NPC that has rings, can make Special magic rings for you, at a price.
You can also get magic weapons from the weapon sellers.

The first new map is opened. There are no people or anything in there, but you can visit it.


Butterflies, Spellthrowers and Goblin Hunting Party

Added Butterflies, goblin hunting parties, and spell casters.
Added more ingredients for alchemy, now you can use fish, butterflies and items from enemies for your alchemy.



Domestice Jobs

I have added that you can do small jobs that can help you to make money.
You can Fish, Mine for Ore, Cut Stone or Cut down trees to help to earn money.

I have also updated the Hotkeys and Favorite menu.

There are more options in the enchantment menu also.
You can have up to three enchantment on Amulets,
And there are two different types of spells for the ring Enchantments.



Added Help Tips

Latest update..
Added Alchemy, writing and Enchanters table, so you can make better items.
Added help tips for the menus so it is easier to play.



Added New parts of the map, marking it square instead of Eight side.
Added some simple bridges, so if you don't know how to walk on water, you can get to different parts..
Tested alchemy and enchanting, and made powerful magic...

(The writing desk is the only place to forge scrolls, if you are a rogue.)

Here is a simple play through of the first 2 minutes.

War spells and New Map Effects

The spell combination for the War magic school are ready.
Now you can combine any type of damage Fire, Shock, Cold and Necro, with the different types of attacks.
Self-damage gives damage to you, but all the others damage the enemy.
Type of attacks.?; Touch, Shield, Ball, Wall, wave and storm...
A wall just stand, but a wave move slowly forward..
The storm creates a giant black cloud, that sent fire balls towards enemy...


Here is the updated version of the water, when you go down under the surface..

Create Your spells

In this video, I make the simple spell called 'Dancing Light'.
It is the simplest spell, but important, because there are Dark places in this world.
