Weekly Update!
Hi everyone! Like every week here comes...
THE WEEKLY UPDATE!
We know that a lot of Hack and Slime players are waiting for new content, and we're working on it, but we've made the decision to put out a big improvement update for this Friday.
Now the game is more dynamic, fast, and satisfying, especially at the beginning. It prevents the player from getting lost and opens up the possibility of introducing more quests, and those quests are coming very soon. We have also added a very important change in the gameplay, the new camera system allows us to create levels with much more verticality, even ascending or descending levels, which will greatly enrich the gameplay.
It would help us a lot in ensuring the QA of Hack and Slime if you start a new game and see for yourself the changes we have made.
Very soon we will upload the content update you ask us for.
Thank you very much to all.

We are very happy with this update because the equipment, stats, and drop system are starting to work. It took us a lot of work!

Chance to block. Attack speed. Launch speed. Mana steal. bonus experience. Potions size. Buff Duration (Temples) Collection area (coins)
You will only see the updated values although they do not affect the gameplay, they will soon be part of the game.
