The new Wave of Darkness patch is out, and we have spent a lot of time to tamper with several aspects of gameplay, namely, the spells. The spells are now completely "unstacked" which means you don't need to wait for casted spell to expire. In other words, you can cast as many spells as you like, as long as you have enough Faith to cast spells with.
Other than that, we have also fixed several annoying bugs, as well as some new features. For example, it is now possible to carry two-handed weapon while the secondary hand has an item in it.
We would also like to remind that Wave of Darkness supports Steam Controller! All you have to do is to find the template called "mUndays Wave of Darkness" and that's basically it.
Also, if you're new to Wave of Darkness, make sure to check the official Beginner's Guide!

Wave of Darkness now support Steam Controller thanks to the template created by "mUnday"!
Hi all!
Well, we really can't hide smiles from our faces when we saw the thread created by user "mUnday" who announced that Wave of Darkness now supports Steam Controller, all thanks to his incredible effort.
All you have to do is to find the template created by "mUnday" and that's basically it.
Here it is how it works:
ABXY are mapped for hotbar 1-4, while holding the left grip ABXY switch to 5-8;
Also can toggle through hotbars 1-5 with the right and left shoulder buttons;
Right grip is TAB and will target closest enemy;
Inventory, skills etc are mapped to the directional pad;
Quest log is mapped to right pad click;
Double "tap" the right pad for quick save;
Start button is ESC and will close windows or go to the Menu;
Back button opens the map;
Left click is set for ready weapon (definitely going to change it, maybe to taunt - mUnday);
Right pad is set for mouse;
Right and Left Trigger are left and right mouse click;
Thats it for now! If you have a Steam Controller, check it out and feel free to update and suggest improvements or changes to mUnday in this thread!
Once again, MASSIVE thanks mUnday!

Wave of Darkness Patch 1.42
We made it easier for player to identify and de-curse items:
Scroll of Veles' Wisdom - identifies all the items, and finds the cursed item, but it doesn't remove the curse from the item;
Scroll of Veles' Glory - identifies only the cursed items and removes the curse;
Scroll of Veles' Peace - identifies only the items cursed by Marowit and removes its curse;
Scroll of Veles' Life - identifies only the items cursed by Flins and removes its curse;
Scroll of Veles' Compassion - identifies only the items cursed by Berstuk and removes its curse;
Scroll of Veles' Faith - identifies only the items cursed by Zirnitra and removes its curse;
Scroll of Veles' Understanding - identifies only the items cursed by Triglav and removes its curse;
Scroll of Veles' Ascension - identifies only the items cursed by Morana and removes its curse.
Also, we saw your complaints regarding the disappearing consumable recipes. This is now fixed, so the recipes do not disappear when you craft usable items, like potions, food, scrolls, etc.
The new, HUGE Wave of Darkness update is LIVE + Release date!
Hi everyone!
Well, after four months of hard work and battles with all kind of murky villains during Early Access, we are proud to announce that Wave of Darkness is getting ready for the full release at 5th of November 2015!
During the Wave of Darkness Early Access, we have been astonished by the amount of good and positive vibrations among the community who wanted to help with great ideas, bug reports and, naturally, constructive criticism.
Majority of your suggestions, bug reports and some criticism resulted in five major patches and several smaller patches which helped Wave of Darkness to become a more stable, more robust, and ultimately a better RPG title. All in all, during Early Access development stage we have applied over 70 game fixes and over 15 new features; some bigger, some smaller.
Now, about that massive new Wave of Darkness update. Here is what you will get:
Wave of Darkness Patch 1.30 is now LIVE!
Hi all!
Major things are hapenning for Wave of Darkness again because we have published another exciting patch! Here is what has been changed and what you will get:
We have upgraded how skills work. Now you gain additional bonuses when you develop skills to certain level (5/10/15/20). All old skill bonuses still work as before so you can play with your regular saved games. These bonuses are added to all skills except for Gathering skills (only two of them - mining and lumbering).
We have fixed several bugs, most noticeable wrong rendering of fog of war in Maps panel (it could be replicated when you set map to be show at 1/3 scree resolution). Maps panel should now display all types of icons at start. You do not have to manually activate them each time you play. Also, display of NPCs and monsters markers in the minimap (top left corner of the screen) is fixed.
Bug with text not being correctly displayed in some panels is (hopefully) fixed. Panels in questions were Load Game, Save Game, Shop, Quest Log and Bestiary.
Also, for those interested in skills, you can find a list of current bonuses added in this update at discussion forum.
