City of Mist: Moths & More
Hey Guild Leaders,
The Moth update for the City of Mist is finally here, so I wanted to write a bit about everything that was added as well as everything new I'm planning to add afterwards!
New additions (in summary):
- Mist Moth enemy
- 2 new food items
- 7 new equipment items across the game
- A couple new game mechanics
- Fixes and improvements to the City of Mist
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1464220/view/3690183132137320026
We're just getting started...
While I'm happy about these additions and improvements...
There's a lot more I want to add to the City of Mist area in future updates!
Here's an overview:
- More enemies! (especially automatons)
- More oddities & events
- More LORE
- More utility to defeating automatons
- Moths being drown to flames
Things I want to add to the City of Mist but are not guaranteed:
- More BIG enemies
- Temporary allies
What's next?
New Goals and Quests
-about two weeks
New faction equipment items, new quests for the new areas, improved rewards, improved goal interface
Interface Improvements
-a week
Making the interface prettier and more comfortable!
Multiple City of Mist Improvements
-???
Adding more content to the City of Mist (as mentioned earlier in the update) across multiple game-updates while secretly working on new areas and classes behind the scenes... before a big update in a few months!!!
Also...
Removing The Demo
Since the demo is pretty buggy and doesn't represent the current state of the game well, I thought this would be a good time to remove it - so I'll likely de-list it from the store some time next week.
If you downloaded the demo it should remain in your account, but new players won't be able to download it from Steam.
And that's all for this update!
Thank you for reading and may you always return from your expeditions (:

Progress Update - City of Mist improvements and More
Hey Guild Leaders!
Since it's been a while - and there's still about a week before I finish with this update, I wanted to post a short update with some visuals to showcase what I've been working on.
New Enemies
For this upcoming update, I'm mainly focusing on the Mist Moths (enemy-wise)!
They should appear on the lower floors of the City of Mist and be a big, powerful opponent which buffs moth grubs, deal heavy damage and drops food items - kind of a counter-balance for the hives.
There's machine enemies I really want to add to the City of Mist too (image contains mockups for one of them), but I don't think I'd have time to add them until next Tuesday... so I'll probably save them for a near future update instead!
New Equipment
As well as a few more -
Each one of these new items also comes with their own skills! Which should make for some fun builds hopefully :D
Exact item counts and where they can be found would be published when the update drops!
Other News
I'm working on other fixes and improvements for the City of Mist and game in general - some of which I may have mentioned before in forum replies, like City of Mist softlocks due to level generation and Surfacing / Event Items exceeding limits in warehouses (and disappearing as a result).
Additionally, I've also started work on the tile-set for one of the new areas...
That's all for now,
Thank you for checking out this progress update!
