State of the Game - December 2024
Welcome to another State of the Game!
As you may have noticed, we skipped October and November. That’s because we’re changing how we handle these updates. Moving forward, we won’t release a State of the Game if an update is scheduled to release during that month. We feel it’s unnecessary to double up on communication when the patch notes already covers the details.
Gameplay
We’ve been working hard on improving the gameplay. Beta 1.1 was focused on overhauling the game’s systems, and now that most of those are in a solid place, we’re shifting our focus to refining how the game plays.
The next update, Beta 1.2, will include significant improvements, such as more balanced values for weapons, tools, and armor. In addition to these tweaks, we’ll be introducing some exciting new features that we’ll reveal in upcoming State of the Game updates!
Effects
One of the game-changing features coming in Beta 1.2 is effects! These can be accessed through various gameplay elements like potions, food, and even damage taken from hostile creatures. Effects will add a new layer of strategy and immersion to the game, giving players more ways to interact with and influence their environment.
Sound Effects
Effects aren’t the only thing that we've been hard at work on! We’ve also updated the backend for sound effects, allowing us to do more with the audio in the game. These improvements will enable us to be more flexible how they will sound in game, with improvements to it such as better directional audio, and effects!
Discord
We’ve also been working on improving the look and feel of our Discord server. From more organized systems to better moderation tools, our goal is to create a welcoming and engaging community space for everyone.
That’s it for this month’s State of the Game! We’re thrilled with the progress we’ve made and can’t wait to show you what we have planned for next year.
As always, thank you for your continued support, and we hope that 2025 will be a better year for Phantasia!
