Passageway of the Ancients: Behind the Curtain #2

17 ABR

We are pleased to report significant progress on major enhancements to Passageway of the Ancients as we ready it for launch. In our previous post, we were at the five-yard line in terms of putting finishing touches on the game. Now we feel we are at the two-yard line, with strong forward momentum!

When we last posted, our primary focus was creating the game’s real-time special/particle effects. For example, we were creating a visual cue that indicates when weapons, armor, and shields receive a stat enhancement or elemental magic bonuses. We have successfully achieved these special effects goals and believe they will significantly enhance the game.

We have also upgraded the comparative inventory feature. You can now compare weapons and armor across all party members at the same time, allowing for a more streamlined approach when equipping your characters. New keyboard shortcuts, an updated right-click menu, and quicker methods to sell items in shops also make overall inventory interaction even easier.

The UI has also been significantly improved. We adjusted several aspects for balance and clarity, such as optimizing and consolidating the character window and redesigning travel menus. We also overhauled the combat options window to give players more detail and granular control over spell casting. The quest log has been revised to make it easier for players to track their progress and view helpful quest information.

The new real-time special/particle effects, inventory feature, and UI upgrades have been added to the current Steam demo. Please check it out and tell us what you think!

Sure, this polishing phase has slightly delayed the release of Passageway of the Ancients, but we felt it was a worthwhile endeavor. As stated in our previous post, we are committed to quality in all aspects of the game – from the storyline and graphics to (of course!) the gameplay.

Thank you for your interest in the world of Aieryon. We greatly appreciate it and will continue to update you on our progress towards launch.

Achievement in Demo

Is it obtainable? I can't open chest on 1st florr due to low lockpicking skill but no idea how to improve it. I was trying in Guild Hall but no skill point to do it so i'm stuck with last quest in Gatehouse.

Passageway of the Ancients: Behind the Curtain #1

20 FEB

We’d like to thank all of you who have downloaded the demo version of Passageway of the Ancients. We appreciate your constructive feedback and are hard at work on implementing your suggestions. After nine years of development, our small team is at the five-yard line in terms of putting finishing touches on the game.

Development-wise, our main focus right now is enhancing the real-time special/particle effects. For example, we want a visual cue that indicates when weapons, armor, and shields receive a stat enhancement or elemental magic bonuses.

In today’s isometric CRPG environment, there’s a tendency to increasingly shrink the size of player characters on screen, which makes the implementation of special effects ever more challenging. You want the effect to be eye-catching and believable, but not totally obscure the detailed texture of the underlying surface.

Above all else, we remain passionately committed to quality in all aspects of the game – from the storyline and graphics to (of course!) the gameplay. Passageway of the Ancients is a large game with 34 levels and numerous story branches, shops, quests, and puzzles, so maintaining quality is a major challenge – but it’s one we take very seriously. We have never believed in words like “mediocre” or “good enough”!

As we continue our march toward launch, we promise to update this blog periodically. Again, thank you for your interest in the world of Aieryon. Your response to the demo has been truly gratifying – not to mention helpful! We greatly appreciate it.

Why is there more effort put into boobs customisation than in GUI fundamentals ?...
