The Steam Game Festival is about to start, and of course Elteria Adventures will be participating with a week of Open Alpha access. Both new and returning players will be able to dip their toes into the sky-bound waters of the game from October 7th to October 13th.
Of course, this is a perfect opportunity to see how the game has improved since the last Open Alpha in June. Just to name a few things: huge graphical improvements of the biomes and the world, new Tutorial chapter, Character Customization, massive rebalance of all in-game items, new weapon types, as well as new items, mobs and UI improvements to make your experience in Elteria Adventures even better.
We hope to see you during this Steam Game Festival and hear your thoughts about Elteria Adventures on our Discord server! (And hey, while you’re there, you could also contact one of the mods to get an Alpha Access key so you could keep playing even past this event!)
See you in the game!

Advanced Galactic Stick. Updated the Galaxy Staff
Atmospheric aesthetics. Updated the fog and the sky visuals
Retextured biomes. Updated the textures of Birch, Pine and Jungle biomes
Same sole altar, new looks. Updated the Soul Altar model
When I say “up”, you go “down”. Added an Invert Mouse controls option
Time has begun to move again. Fixed a major issue that caused the servers to experience a slow down and then freeze up. Also, fixed several client crashing issues
Safe slippers. Fixed the issue with parts of legs missing while wearing slippers
Mining your own business. Fixed the way Hematite is gathered in the Hub area.

Monster Design Contest results
Greetings, curious explorers! So, the Top-3 submissions of the Monster Design contest were announced during the stream of the first half of the End of Summer party. Were you there? Even if you didn’t, you can still participate in the second half of the party today at 1 PM PT/11 PM GMT+3, and you can check the Top-3 Monster Design Contest submissions right here:
3rd place: Playful Ghost by Aero This cute and fascinating mob made for an amazing fit for the roster of mobs that haunt the islands of Elteria at nights.
2nd place: Pixis by Fredou (눈‸눈) and Mender These adorable little creatures are really going to look at place in the game, so we’re really looking forward to seeing these fuzzballs around.
1st place: Gingersnap by KFZ (KentuckyFrydZombies) The moment we saw this leafy reptile, we have immediately envisioned this floral behemoth slowly and peacefully roaming through the Jungle and Desert biomes
There were a lot of praiseworthy submissions, strong contenders for the Top-3 and even predictions of the stuff yet to come, though since we can’t do everything at once, we had to settle for these three. Still, we just might come back to these submissions later down the line, or even hold another Monster Design contest. With that in mind, you can look forward to seeing the news of these three critters’ development and addition into the game.

Head-Jumping Contest: the Prizes
Greetings, adventurous heroes and heroic adventurers! End of Summer party is just around the corner (September 12th and 13th 1 PM PST to be exact), and it’s time to take a peek at what prizes you can earn for participating in it! The Jumping Contest will be held in two stages, once a day. Each stage of the Jumping Contest will last 15 minutes. Of course, you’ll need each of those minutes in order to get the most out of this event: *Inflatable ring is a part of Shirt and Shorts combo!
End of Summer party starts at 1 PM PST on September 12th and September 13th. If you need a reminder on the contents of the contest and how to prepare for it, you can check our handy Guide.

See you soon!
Prepare for the upcoming Jumping Contest!
Salutations, skilled skyhoppers! Are you prepared for the Head-Jumping contest during End of Summer party on September 12th and 13th? We bet you could be a little bit more prepared, especially if you’re aiming for the top spots in that contest. And you really need some info to be as prepared as possible, which is why today we’re going to look at two things: the general rules of the contest, and the build that would allow you to be the hoppiest, jumpiest adventurer around.
First of all, for the general principles of the contest:
The contest will follow a general timed Deathmatch format (but instead of death, someone jumps on your head).
Each adventurer acts on their own and has to jump on the heads of other adventurers as many times as possible.
Naturally, we’ll limit the effectiveness of consecutively using the same head as your jumping board, so you’ll have to switch between targets to maximize your score.
The contest will utilize a ranking board where you’ll see both top players and your own score so you know what to aim for
There are two types of prizes: a prize for performing a certain amount of jumps in the contest, and a prize for reaching one of the top spots in the contest.
The info about the prizes will be available later on, though be warned: they’re cosmetic, they’re unique and they look fantastic.
Now, within these rules, how can you maximize your potential? Extra jumps: if you can perform midair jump more times than your opponent, you’ll have an easier time landing on their head. Boots help with that, though you might want to obtain Sally’s Wonderful Shoes that give you TWO extra jumps instead of one. A Sturdy Leather Armor and Extra Jump Potion also give you an extra jump and are also relatively easy to obtain, and if you’re able to obtain a Carrot Sword, that’s another extra jump. By combining all of these items, you can obtain FIVE midair jumps. Flying: There is currently no True Flight in Elteria Adventures, though the Bees’ flight comes pretty close, and is obtainable through Turn into Bee Potion or bee souls. Sure, the speed of their flight is nothing to write home about, but that extra mobility might help you in a pinch. Movement abilities: the Warrior calling has two movement abilities that allow you to either dash, or instantly jump dozens of feet into the air. Battlefield Control: There are several abilities that allow you to either impede other players or boost yourself. Architect’s constructs, and Summoner’s bump mushroom and sunflower can easily shape the battlefield Personal Pushback: Slime souls can give you the ability to push back other players. Oh, and in case you want to resist the pushback of other players, you might want to raise your Tenacity with items like Potion of Tenacity.
Of course, these are not the only ways you can raise your chances in the upcoming contest, and we’re excited to see what else our players will bring to the table.
And before that, be sure to join Elteria Adventures’ Discord server where you can follow and discuss news of upcoming features and events, talk and coordinate with other players, and even communicate directly with the developer team. See you soon!
