New mechanics and a new boss — Lava Octopus!

Hello everyone!

We would like to update you on the development of Lord Ambermaze, including new bosses and biomes that we recently finished.

We have three new biomes to announce! The "forest" biome is finished, while the "dark wood" and "lava" biomes are almost complete – we are still testing these locations while developing new ones. These exclude the "toxic swamps" and the castle of the Dark Lord Ambermaze, which will be full of traps and dangers.



Speaking of biomes, we want to lift the veil of mystery surrounding the "lava" biome. The endless fields of fire will challenge every player, but if you can overcome the first two biomes, you might just be able to cope with the hottest of them all.

But heed our warning! One wrong step will lead to you burning to a crisp or an explosive end!



We've added a unique "totems" mechanic to this level. If you encounter these statues in the arena, you will feel their immediate effect as they prevent you from using certain game mechanics. For example, enemies will be protected by permanent shields and any attack against them will be meaningless until you destroy the totem.



Once you reach the end of the level, you'll come face-to-face with the Lave Octopus boss. It's an imposing sight and will seem incredibly strong, with the right way, he'll fall with ease.

Our goal with the "lava" biome was to include more puzzles that lead to treasure caches and secret passages to different rooms, and new enemies with different attacks and behavior logic. Now it is definitely the most real, gloomy labyrinth!

And we've also added Japanese as a language option to the demo.

Add the game to your Wishlist if you haven't already, play the demo, and join our Discord. Let us know what you think of the demo and let us know if you have any ideas or wishes for the game. All of these will help us improve Lord Ambermaze.

Look at the new cactus boss and lava location!

Hello everyone!

It's been a while since we've talked about the progress of Lord Ambermaze development. Meanwhile, we are almost finished working on the third biome — the lava one.



This level will be a real challenge for fans of hardcore puzzles. It will be possible to pass through the fiery lands only by earning experience and leveling up during the first two biomes, as well as by actively using your entire arsenal.

In addition, we are working on two new bosses — for the second and third levels.
Take a look at this glorious prickly baby! He will definitely not let you get bored during the final battle.

Check out Funny Enemy Type in the Lava Fields. Kill it with the bow!

Hello everyone!

Our team has been hard at work on the next demo update for Lord Ambermaze. In the latest version, the floor is literally lava in the new biome! And we're including so many additional enemies to challenge players.



In addition, Lord Ambermaze has set all sorts of clever traps. You'll have to think about overcoming them and getting to your goal faster while taking less damage.



We also decided to add one more main weapon - the bow. It can hit and damage targets at a distance of several squares. However, there are a limited number of arrows so you should use them sparingly and you can't replenish them during battle.

In addition, we're working on a brand new boss, but we can't tell you about it just yet. Think you can guess what it is? Let us know in the comments below.
