When there is a new update, my security software always blocks it and I have to wait until it passes inspection. I recommend getting them certified by service providers before posting so people's security software will recognize it. This also incentivizes spacing out the updates with more time to include more development instead of many small and rapid updates. It means for you less time on correspondence with those providers, and for your players less time bumping into security software freaking out.
For example, from .88 to .90, the .88 just got inspected for me to run, but now a new version has to be inspected.
I looked into that and being certified can be costly and I'm already paying for a server to run. Whenever I get this posted on Steam for a release I won't have to do this. But usually it is more spaced out, this update came out of nowhere cause I found a feature I could work on when I thought I had nothing left.
WOW. You are doing a proper job of this! 5/5 I recommend!
My mind was blown by how much stuff you have created for this being a 5 month project. Are you a solo developer?
I played for hours and had a lot of fun. It's like harvest moon and final fantasy got nasty and had a baby. The slime king killed me so I still have more to go back for. I'm just very impressed by this.
I didn't figure out how to use the quickbar in the bottom right corner of the HUD. I ended up keeping my inventory open the whole time and switching equipment/eating potions from there.
One problem I noticed is the mouse cursor gets locked to the window and I did not find any way to release it. Alt + Tab to another window was the only thing that worked. Maybe add release the mouse with escape key, or just not lock the mouse to the window at all.
Movement control died for a couple minutes when I read the magic tutorial book. I don't know how I got it back but it was frustrating.
Using wood to make a fire worked fine in single player, but on the server it stopped working. I had a lot of wood, like 45+. Maybe that had something to do with it? It worked to do the beef mission but not afterward. The wood would still get consumed, but no wood was placed on the ground.
At one point, the fireball stopped working. I dropped the book and picked it up again and that fixed it.
Also the cooking is wonky. I wasted a lot of dead cows before I got 3 raw meats to cook. It was the same with cooking fish.I haven't tried bread yet but I will now that I got tons of wheat from the dungeon.
Keep up the good work! More content! More monsters! More NPCs! More crafting!
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for those very kind words. Gives me some hope on it. As for the issues you had I'll definitely look into it. As for the Slime King, it is meant to be a World Boss so it's needs a few people to do so. 4 of us were able to kill him but we eventually got a system down that worked. Make sure to check out my discord for updates and such and maybe we can even play together some time and hopefully fix those bugs. Also yes, I am a solo developer.

Wanted to try it out, gray screen :< Looks super cool tho.
server must have crashed again. Haven't refreshed it since before Christmas. I'll fix it after work. It'll be up by the evening Est time.
Server has been refreshed and is back up again if you want to give it a try.
Sweet! Will do. Thank you. :)
I can't log in the 0.88.
After name and pw, it is grey screen that does nothing.
The server may be acting up. I'll check it when I get home from work. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Server is back up and running.
