Dev Update (and Demo removal)

Apr 14

Hello Willowguards!

Our scribes have been too busy in the dev mines to come up for air for some time, apologies for that. Hopefully you have all been enjoying the very extended Steam Next Fest demo, as we will now (finally) be taking that down! The reason being that it no longer entirely represents the current state of the game. But fear not - we'll be cooking up a new, more representative demo soon enough!

Thank you to everyone who played, commented, and wishlisted!

Puzzle Dungeons

Currently, our dungeons have been entirely combat-focused, but that is something that is going to see a change soon. The new puzzle dungeons will contain traps, puzzles, lore, new enemies and new ways of using your Willowguard abilities to overcome them all. Powered by ancient magical machines that have continued to operate long after the gods have gone, these dungeons guard the secrets of the ancient world.

These dungeons represent a huge shift in how you approach the moment-to-moment gameplay in Willow Guard, so be sure to stick around for more updates.

Thank you for now, and fair winds, Willowguards!

Willow Guard Demo Updated to 0.8.4.1!

Feb 14

Hey all!

Thank you so much to everyone who played our demo to date, wishlisted the game, and interacted with us in any form - it's been quite the whirlwind!

First of all: in order to make sure as many of you who downloaded our demo but did not have time to play it during Next Fest has a chance to play it, we'll keep the demo up for a while longer - at least until the end of this week, possibly until the end of the month. We know the demo has quite a bit of content in it, which might take you a little while to finish :)

Want to keep it open longer? Give us feedback and bug reports either in the Community Forums or, even better, in our Discord[discord.gg] where we can chat with you directly, so we know someone is still playing!

Secondly: update 0.8.4.1 of the demo is now out! It contains both bug fixes and some QOL fixes, so do make sure to download it if you can. Your saves should be unaffected. Here's a short changelog:

- A fix to the dreaded black screen of doom bug that was reported several times to us. Thanks to RedBlazin in our DIscord for sticking around and letting us find the solution!
- The slowdown when nearing an exit (in maps with exits) is now fixed.
- Potion of Celerity and Speed Rune now work as intended.
- Various map fixes to prevent spawning or getting stuck in impassable places.
- Interactables are now given a much more visible glow on approach.
- Visual fixes in dungeons, including fixes to treetops during nighttime levels, shadows, rendering order etc.
- Fixes to the UI to stop overflow of text.
- The crafting UI now displays Craft first and Upgrade second (as Crafting is much more common than Upgrading).
- Fixed a CTD when returning to camp after the Moonglades.

We have also for now disabled the rumble effect on controllers, as we suspect it may have caused the character to sometimes stop moving during gameplay.

Watch this space for future updates from the world of the Willowguards!

Wow this game is terrible.

Based on the demo, this is going to be a terrible game.

Some general feedback

So far, I dig the art style and the mix of card-based abilities with actual mouse/keyboard combat. Combat is difficult but manageable as long as you're not just standing still trying to out swing every enemy. I heard issues with bleeds but my first card was an anti-bleed so it may just be people's card choices adding difficulty. In the first dungeon I noticed that even when I back away from attacks sometimes, I avoid the animation but still take a hit. I'm unsure if that's a hitbox issue or just my luck, b...

Not a pleasant experience

the music was yaring over time and the bleed from the wolfs made me quite after dying 5 times with out much i could do with it, managed to dodge a few, but two bleed hits was enough to kill you. and with how many wolfs i saw in the first map i didn't feel like pushing through....

Is there going to be translations of the game?

I mean, I understand english, but it's not my mother language so I could feel more relaxed with the game in Spanish, by the way how much is it gonna cost?
