  • More quests added
  • New item drops
  • More crafting options
  • More story interaction with Kate (Kate side-story)
  • More original Music


*Updates to the Farm/Basel:
Although the farming/base aspect of Elderine is not the main focus of the game, it is an area that can add some more activities, and enjoyment. At the moment players can farm, rescue people, buy craft books, and store any artifacts they have found. However, I would like to continue to develop this area to offer more things to do.

  • More types of crops to grow
  • More people to rescue
  • Join the slavers - evil
  • Fight the slavers - good
  • New Quests
  • More base upgrades - that will enable other features.
  • More companion story line interaction.


Early Access:
Although it will be possible to "complete" Elderine in one of the next updates in April, there is still much more that I would like to add, having received great feedback from players. As such I will continue to keep Elderine in Early Access for longer and add new game elements and polish others. That being said, once the game comes out of early access, i will still be working on additional, free, content for Elderine, includeing a new area and quest line that will continue on from the end game story.

As always, if you have any feedback, suggestions, ideas of items, tales of monster slaying or words of encouragement, please do let me know!

Elderine Update 6

Hi all,

I have implemented a new save/load option for the game.

Save slot one will be listed as Auto save, and any auto save/save crystal save will save to slot 1. You will also be able to save to other slots manually.

This may have overwritten your current save files. If it has you can use the building behind Jason's house to skip the school part of the game and go straight to the strange hut in the woods.

I am hoping that this new save game plugin will remove the save game bugs.

Elderine - Gameplay Videos

Hey all,

So Elderine has had a few first impression videos, which I’d like to share here. I enjoyed watching these two, they were funny, entertaining and also helped me spot a few things I needed to fix in game!

They both show the start of the game, covering the current tutorial, and introduction to the story and Jason. So, there may be a few spoilers, but equally could help show you what to do, if you get stuck.

It's great to see things like this, as a newbie dev, it's very encouraging to get feedback in all forms so that I can learn from them and make Elderine better and more enjoyable for you.

Elderine Update 3

Hey All,

Thanks for all the feedback so far. It's been great. Progress may be slow but I am getting there with adding or fixing certain parts of the game. I always like to have a bit of a balance between the too, and i hope you enjoy the updates.

As there are quite a few changes, you may wish to start again. If you have bene experiencing game crashes or if you manually saved over save slot 1, i would suggest starting again.

I have also removed manual save and added more save crstals. I am hoping this will avoid conflicts within the game that have been causing crashes.


Patch Notes Feb 11th:

Added:

  • More areas in the game - 2nd final dungeon.
  • More Music
  • More crafting options (metal work, magical items) This is still basic.
  • Copper mines (other mines to come and wood chopping)
  • Monster drops :)
  • An NPC (you meet in Haspar) who will become the shop keeper at your farm and sell you useful items, and buy your loot.


Fixed:

  • Hopefully some areas that freeze the game (sewers in Haspar)
  • Instances where you can get repeat quest items.


Things to come in future updates::

  • Final Dungeon
  • More varied monsters
  • More loot drops
  • More crafting options
  • More mine types and tress to chop.
  • I will start adding in new people to rescue.
  • I will start adding in new side quests.
  • New places to visit
  • End game scene and storyline

Elderine Update 2

Hey All,

I have released another update, mostly to fix a few identified bugs. Hopefully saving works bettwer now. I am going to continue to do frequent updates to fix any issues/bugs or add in small extras to the game for the next few weeks. Once the game is more stable, I will start working on more content.

Again if you have any ideas, suggestions or feedback, please either send me a message or post something in the forums.

thanks for all your help so far!

Patch Notes Jan 28th:

  • Added alternate save location. Save file should save in a different folder - so it wont be deleted with game updates.
  • Added some quest update messages.
  • Fixed harvest objects (crops, etc) so that you can move over them and not get stuck when they regrow.
  • Fixed Health Potion crafting ingredients list/requirements.
  • Fixed image bug when Jason changed cloths in Glen Tirel Elf Halls.
  • Fixed a bug in the slaver camp that made your Alignment score go crazy.
  • Some small extra bug fixes or changes in game.
