Galer: Plague of Heroes
Latest Build adds WARP function in home base!!
I decided to add a 'jump to/warp' function for getting to the planning/tactical room at Wurth castle, thereby avoiding having to wander through the castle the long way.
Once players have completed the 4 side quests for: Dale, Borr Krath, Raymond and Igil, and the 2nd part of the game starts, when you walk up to the entrance to the Wurth castle you will now be prompted to 'jump to planning/tactial room?' You may enter yes or no. Also, there is a warp back to the main gates once you are done in the planning/tactical room.
I hope this helps in cutting down unnecessary game time!!

SPRINT Key added to latest build of GALER!
After receiving many complaints about the slow speed of the player characters, I have added a SPRINT key to allow players to move through the game at a faster clip!
Simply press the SHIFT key, and your character will either speed up or slow down depending on current state.
(Please note you cannot use this functionality on the World Map screen, however, if you already have the SPRINT function activated before heading out to the World Map, your character will move faster regardless!)
Additional improvements:
- 30% less random encounter rate in both dungeons and world map screens.
Thanks so much for your feedback in making GALER better for everyone!!!

GALER Launch date set back to my birthday: May 4th, 2017
I have been getting flack from some members on another forum that my graphics are terrible. So, because I want the best possible final result for everyone, I am going to hopefully be investing in doing more of the graphics myself and not relying on RTP defaults. I'm pretty bad at it, but at least I want it to be my work and to know I tried my best.
Due to this reason, the date has been set back until May 4th, 2017 (My birthday.) I won't post anymore release dates until THE WEEK IT IS BEING RELEASED!!
Thank you for your unwavering patience as I want this to be enjoyed by everyone,

Launch of GALER will include more gameplay and options
Just wanted to keep you updated on the progress of the launch. Right now I have completed 20% of the revamp graphics which were created by me for a more retro look, plus here are a list of additional things I am adding/looking to add for the release in December:
- Character name input option: You will now be able to name all of your heroes similar to the old school Final Fantasy series from the SNES. This will help you have a more intimate experience with the story as it unfolds
- Food ration addition: I am toying with the idea that while you are out adventuring and exploring the zombie infested world of GALER, you also need to make sure that your home base has stable food and provisions to keep alive (just like in a zombie world), as I feel this will add even more to the survival aspect to the game. Your food will deplete over time and you must scrounge up supplies during your travels or else home base heroes will suffer HP loss, strength and agility disadvantages during random encounters
- More storyline: I am adding a few new side quests which will make the game longer and more enjoyable with NPC interactions
- Journal option: This one will be tricky, but I am looking to add a journal option at the end of each saved game. This will be a chance to add your own story to this one and be available to re-read during the games conclusion as well as the **option** of posting it to the forum section of how you 'survived.'
Feedback is welcomed!
Cheers, folks!!!!

GALER Release date postponed until December 1st
I am really sorry to be posting this, but unfortunately due to graphics issues, I will not be able to launch GALER yet. December 2016 is the VERY LATEST for the launch, but it could be sooner depending on how much work I get done over the next little while.
Weekly updates will be included.
GALER: Plague of heroes RELEASE DATE SET!
I am currently in the process of making Steam cards for my game, so that you may earn them and trade them accordingly.
Due to this delay, I am setting my release date for August 31st, 2016.
