I just saw this update today and this is amazing. Thank you very much! I really enjoy this game and cannot wait to check out the new content and try out the hopefully more challenging difficulties....

Is the Linux Controller bug fixed (controllers, or at least steam controller not recognized)?

[SpectatorX]

Nice idea of reverting levels flow. I tried today... "first" level. I will go deeper when i will be able to :-)

Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately there is no proper support for controllers, but it's something we are looking into. Steam controller should work on SteamOS.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Cheers!

Is this "Escape From Castle" contains new cutscenes/story?

I think better achievement need to be added



Things you can add:

All chests collected
X amount of bodies hidden (maybe 50?)
Craft all items
Complete game using one of every crafted item
Complete game using none of the crafted items
Kill X amount of enemie with obstacles (crates, barrels, wagons)


Just to name a few.

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately we currently don't have plans to add more achievements. Still your ideas were quite good. :)

hell even using a cross bow would be cool. But as to not take it away from what the game is supposed to be, maybe a one shot only cross bow.

could be ideas for a Shadwen 2 game...

I just finished this bonus chapters and feels like I've been trolled. After sneaking and swinging through all of those soldiers while babysitting a kid all the way out the siege, I got no reward at all (beside some items which has no use to me.). Please, guys. If you have no plan to add one more achievement for this bonus chapters, at least give us some extra cut scene, more picture/painting items, or just new soldiers chat speaking about what happen with the king and the forest spirit that night.

Anyway, the main chapters are quite fun and rewarding to play. Good job, guys.

Thanks for the feedback, glad to hear that you enjoyed the main game. We shall keep rewards in mind in the future. ;)
