INFORMATION ABOUT THE UPDATE

ADJUSTMENTS IN THE COMBAT SYSTEM

All weapons have been balanced to offer a sense of progress. Their animations, speed and damage have been adjusted.

We have modified the combat system to make enemies attacks can't cancel Victor's attacks.

FIXES

Adjustments of Victor's footsteps volume and other SFX.

Fixed bugs that could occur rarely in certain moments of the game.

Fixed collisions that could leave the character stuck in some in some parts of the map.

Fixed text issues in some languages.


WHAT´S NEXT?

We want to continue improving Lamentum with future updates.

In the following updates we want to add a new difficulty selector, with EASY, NORMAL and HARD options in order to make the game more accessible to some players and a challenge for those who want a harder experience.

Hello everybody!


This is going to be a pretty short devlog. :D

We want to announce that we have finished the versions of Nintendo Switch, Ps4 and Xbox One and that we are currently working on fixing some minor bugs and taking them to the different stores of each platform.

Now we just have to wait for the different stores to give us the approval or in the case that there is a problem, solve it as soon as possible.


When this process is finished we will be able to give a more specific launch date.

We remind you that the launch will be simultaneous on all platforms. (PC, Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One)



About languages:


We want to inform you that we have recently added the Polish language and we plan to add some more in the future.


As an additional note we also want to inform you that the French translation has given us some problems, but we are optimistic and we believe that it will be available at launch.


About the closed beta:
We have a closed beta in mind in July. All those who have the closed beta option in your rewards will receive an email with more information.


Those of you who do not have access to beta in your reward can sign up here:

Lamentum News



Hello everybody!



During these months we have focused on solving some bugs and polishing the build as much as possible to start working on the console port.

Another important part of the development, the translations, are almost finished.

It has been an intense few months, but we are moving forward!

About the current state of the build:



During the testing we have detected some bugs that we have corrected and some details that we have had to improve to guarantee the quality of the game.

We have also improved enemies and balanced the weapons of the game and improved some visual aspects of the game, such as the game font or changing some details of the game's graphic interface.

News and improvements:





New map system. (More useful and improved, points of interest and save areas are now marked)

New game font.



New stamina system (Now Victor only get tired when he´s stressed or in combat situations)

Interface improvements. (Doors, keys and puzzles)

Narrative improvements.



Light system improvements. (The lamp is now more useful for exploring.)


About languages.





Translations continue at a good pace, although it is true that we thought it would be a part that would take less development time, even so, we are happy with the results.

We currently have the following languages ​​completed and integrated:

- Spanish
- English
- Simplified Chinese
- Japanese
- Russian
- German

Working on:

- French
- Italian
- Traditional Chinese

Achievement system:



We have included an achievement system linked to different events that will occur during the game.



We have the achievements built into Steam and we are currently working on the other platforms.
