September Dev News - Combat

Serin Fate

Evil is afoot... Wielding your new Magic, bound into mysterious Monster-infested lands to uncover ancient relics and restore the Fate Stone. Along the way, explore the depths of every nook to find creatures, garner ingredients, train in Witchery, and craft new equipment.

Hey everyone! For those of you playing Serin Fate already, I hope it’s been a good experience. Any feedback you may have is very appreciated, so please leave a review on Steam -- It is the absolute best way to support the project. Now, as the holiday season approaches, so comes the time for the next big content update, which is going to be AWESOME!! I really think this next one is going to round a lot of edges... Let’s check out some of the additions in September. As you’d expect, development continues in the Nymbus Isles.

[img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35029598/e6a562e976dfab282f392401ecccddb340a9efc3.gif[/img] And new environments to traverse, like this shallow water… Be careful! Being in the shallows will slowly regenerate some HP, but can be deadly in a lightning storm!

Combat is now much more engaging, and fun! You can finally wield and use Swords & Staffs to fight enemies (along with other semi-combative items).

Staffs have the awesome ability to charge up by holding the attack button - Doing so will consume Mana but yield MUCH greater damage! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35029598/db2ca336d3400c484a56aef5cad6292d28ca56a3.gif[/img] There are many other changes with the combat, and how it now functions with Chimera, but we’ll save that for another time. Lastly, there are countless little changes and functionality improvements, like this new status display, tree wiggle shader, and placement-range indicator. Trees may start to wobble in rain and storms, for a fun visual, and will scare off any flyers that were atop. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35029598/5f97f9fc1a4861c16e562584947405c6a4cddb8c.gif[/img] The ability to hide the display, is great for a screenshot, or just cleaning up the clutter. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35029598/ee46fd2e7457fa954dca064bc11ca912f77f928a.gif[/img] And these indicators make designing your garden and Chimera pens much easier, and spatially efficient! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35029598/9a554744ff7c0eff231c5e5ee1025c0a078ac0aa.gif[/img] I hope you like the progress, and are as excited as I am for the next content update that will be coming! I’d love to chat with you on Discord, and hear your ideas and thoughts. Together we can make Serin Fate the best it can be.
