Game is broken as is

[Basher]

1st of all, im a fan of the series, played the flash versions a lot back then and was really excited to see the title coming up on Steam.

Buuuut, it's really broken right now. Taunt doen´t do anything (no reaction from the opponent). Same with attack spells. Charge works at any distance. And that I noticed at the 1st two battles.

Funny thing is that I downloaded the mobile and the above mentioned works properly. So... Did you test the ported version at least ONCE?

And btw, pressing ESC closes the game, that's horrible...

Agree to all above, ranged taunt/spells all seem to do nothing. Also Charging attacks (special and regular) never miss due to distance (only hit %), regardless of how far you are from actually hitting the enemy. Not completely game-breaking if you are a melee type. But still these are pretty huge bugs that I can't believe didn't get corrected before launch.

Huge apologies everyone - I broke something while patching it last night! I've just patched the game to 1.5.0 which will fix this ( as well as some other stability issues, including ranged attack distances. )

Lame excuse but one of the reasons for these bugs is that I'm working on S&S 2 and S&S V ( the sequel ) at the same time, with the same codebase - some features in S&S V inadvertently caused this game to break - my bad for not checking it again , working too fast and too furiously and again, sorry this has caused a rough start for your gladiators!

Thanks again for your patience and I'll keep patching the game as often I can, cheers Oliver Joyce (creator).
