Path of The Runecaster is out now!
Greetings, Runecasters!How are you all doing? I hope you're doing great, because today is a perfect day to cast runes on the battlefield! To celebrate our launch, how about a 20% discount? Sounds good? Then don’t miss out—it's available for a limited time! One more important thing! I'm setting up a Discord server to receive feedback and suggestions for the current version. The demo feedback was very positive, but I’ll be keeping a close eye on things to keep improving the game and fixing whatever is needed. You’re invited!https://discord.gg/zSzQfMRgEhIt’s a small Discord, but I get lost when there are too many text and voice channels, so please excuse the simplicity... From demo to now...There haven’t been many updates about the project since the demo—and that’s on me. Things got pretty hectic finishing the game, as I wanted to add more content while also handling all the promotion. The most sensible option would’ve been to delay the release, but I chose to prioritize finishing the game, even if it meant a weaker marketing push.But no need for tears—let’s take a look at some of the improvements since the demo!Dashes now pass through objects Ever got frustrated when you dashed and got stuck on a tiny tree? Me too. Now dashes ignore collisions with objects, allowing you to pass through them! If you end a dash inside a solid object, the game will push you out.Protection Stones actually protect you now! When a Protection Stone collides with an enemy projectile, it is destroyed. This makes recasting the rune meaningful and improves game balance. P.S.: This only works for those red projectiles—use wind runes to destroy hurricanes.Character dialogues You can now get to know your allies at your base better.The Stone of Fate As you complete challenges, interact with the Stone of Fate to claim powerful rewards!From curse to blessing What was once a source of curses is now a source of blessings. Let’s just say the game was already quite challenging—curses would’ve made it near...Read full article on Community Announcements (Ankouz)Patch NotesOfficial
Small Demo Update
Hello Runecasters!Since the first Demo release yesterday, I’ve received feedback about some runes and a few necessary adjustments. Here’s the list of changes below! Rune Balance Changes: Heart-Seeker Shot Rune: Slight damage increase. Hitbox size increased. Wings of Glory Rune: Greatly increased projectile firing speed at early levels. Flaming Wheel Rune: Increased firing speed and range. Projectiles fired: 1 → 2. Slight damage reduction to compensate. Wind Slash Rune: Greater size increase per rune level. Psychic Field Rune: Fixed: Now scales in size correctly. Damage interval decreases with each level. Guardian Circle Rune: Slight damage increase. Adjustments: Stages: Tile colors adjusted for better obstacle clarity. Character: Hitbox adjusted (now slightly smaller). Music & SFX: Volume settings now apply correctly when loading the game. That’s all for now! Big thanks and see you soon!Read full article on Community Announcements (Ankouz)AnnouncementsOfficial
Demo Now Available!
Greetings, Runecasters! It is with great joy that we announce that the Demo of Path of The Runecaster is now available!I know it's been a few months without any updates or news—my apologies for that! As I kept adding more features, the game’s development kept growing, making it impossible to predict a specific date to share something bigger. It’s very likely the game will still need balancing—economy, runes, spells, basically everything! I’ve run several tests to achieve the best possible result from the start, but I know adjustments will be necessary, and I’m open to your suggestions and feedback! I hope you have fun with the game! Best regards!Read full article on Community Announcements (Ankouz)
