Starting the week strong with a fast update! I was already cooking a few improvements and the QA already gave the green light, so I decided to bundle them with a critical bug fix.

I'm sorry to announce that Endless RPG had a major issue on Steam, causing the build to appear as 0 KB and preventing downloads. I hadnt made any changes in days and was only alerted by a player experiencing the problem. Thankfully, it's now fixed! My deepest apologies to anyone affected. I've switched to a more robust upload process to prevent this from happening again. Cheers!

[ 2025-03-28 12:50:45 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! Just a small update with some fixes and tweaks:

• Firearms now deal impact damage and halve armor.
• [BUG] Level 10 was unreachable due to a code issue, now fixed.
• [BUG] Fortress, Fighting Master dialogue: The Offensive Skill question was incorrect even when answered correctly, now resolved.

Cheers!

Hello adventurers! A new update for Endless RPG is here, now featuring Steam Achievements! First, make sure you're on version 0.8.8c. Steam gave me a hard time setting up a Beta branch since my build is now tangled with what is on Steam. I cannot just drop an executable for the QA. Speaking of which, a quick heads-up: the Beta branch is experimental and may contain game-breaking bugs. I noticed some of you are using it, so be careful, it's not the official stable version! I'm absolutely loving all the feedback and support you're giving Endless RPG: Untold Tales! It means a lot to me. The next update will include many of the suggestions we've discussed on the forums. So, if you have ideas, please share them here on Steam. I read, interact with, and consider them all. Early Access is about making the game better together, and if your ideas improve Endless, I'll do my best to add them. =] Changelog:

• Steam Achievements:
  • Finish Tutorial
  • Finish First Quest
  • Win 10-100-1000 Combats
  • Explore 1-10-25 Ruins
  • Destroy Evil Centers, 1-10-25
  • Contracts 1-10-25
  • Coins 5000-50000-100000
  • Friend I-II-III
  • Lover I-II-III
  • Rival I-II-III
  • Skill Master
  • All Legendaries
• Kitting Archers v2: AI max range reduced from 8 to 5.
• [BUG] Cruel Trait:
  • Now applies correctly to Dark Elven Poison Touch.
  • Tooltip now properly explains which effects it enhances.
• Added a gender selection button in New Game.
• The Party Screen now displays a health bar under each character.

Adventurers, your journey through Endless RPG just got even better! We're excited to introduce Difficulty Options, giving you the power to shape your adventure the way you want.

How It Works

You can now select your difficulty when starting a new game or adjust it anytime from the Options Menu during your playthrough. Whether you crave a tough challenge or a more relaxed experience, the choice is yours.

The New Difficulties

Standard

The game as intended. A balanced challenge where strategy matters, but mistakes won't ruin you.

Relaxed

A softer challenge. Enemies are weaker, giving you more room to experiment and recover from mistakes. (Enemies have -25% Health, Guard, and Damage.)

Casual

A carefree adventure. Enemies pose little threat, letting you focus on the journey rather than the struggle. (Enemies have -50% Health, Guard, and Damage.) Whether you're here for the thrill of battle or just to enjoy the world, we got you covered. Got feedback? Let us know in the discussions. Happy adventuring!

Hello everyone, we have some exciting updates and bug fixes to share with you regarding our latest development progress: From now on, all demo versions will have a level cap (Max Level 3) and a 25 in-game day limit. You can always create a new world and play again up to day 25! Also, all improvements and updates will be carried out on the demo and on the final version. Here is the list of what was changed:

• Hotkeys Fixed: We've corrected an issue where the speed button hotkeys were not functioning as intended.
• Healing Feedback: When healing via dialogue, such as at a campfire, the system will now accurately display the amount of health restored, even if your character is already at maximum health.
• AI Archer Behaviour: We have refined the behaviour of AI archers, discouraging them from dashing and instead focusing on movement, making combat more predictable.
• Dungeon Darkness: We have implemented a new darkness effect for all ruins and caves, featuring a black spotlight that follows the mouse or the character, which enhances the atmosphere in combats and dialogues.
• Skill Generation Bug: A bug where some Skill buildings were not generating skills has been fixed. This issue was most likely occurring when the town grew.
• Dialogue System Bug: We've addressed a bug in the dialogue engine that was causing issues when a party member was deceased. The system now cycles properly even when a character has died.
• Caves Crash Fix: A crash that would occur when the party wiped while gathering ore in caves has been resolved.
• Speed Button Functionality: The map speed button now correctly cycles through pause.
• Town Display: The town will now correctly display the shop as the default tab.
• Town Shop Improvements: The exit button in the town shop now includes a tooltip that indicates the Esc key is the hotkey to exit.
• Visual clarity:
  • We've added a line to separate qualities from other properties in the UI.
  • We've added an explanation to the UI as to why a skill is not active, for example due to missing equipment.
• Character Appearance: The "Unliving" skill now pales the character's skin.
• Map Sprite Update: We have redone the character troops sprites and have ensured they will not appear blurry.
• Map Arrow: We have corrected the map arrows to prevent them from being squashed, and have adjusted their position.
• Map Icons: The Evil Center map icons are now preserved with pixel-perfect quality.

Hello, adventurers! I want to share an update about Endless RPGs release plans. The Early Access launch will be moving to early March instead of January. This wasnt an easy decision, but its crucial to give the game the best possible start and I need your help to make it happen. Right now, Endless RPG has about 340 wishlists, but to succeed, I need many more. Thats why Ill be showcasing the game at Steam NextFest at the end of February. Its a huge opportunity to grow our community, and the extra time will help ensure the Early Access release is polished and full of charm. To make the wait worthwhile:

• Ill be releasing a fully-featured demo by January, so you can dive in and experience everything the game has to offer.
• If youd like to go the extra mile and support the project, Ive set up a Buy Me a Coffee page. Every little bit helps keep this dream alive.

I wont sugarcoat it, this is make-or-break for me. If the wishlist trend doesnt pick up, this game may be my last. But Im holding onto hope because of all of you whove supported me so far. Together, I believe we can make Endless RPG the success it deserves to be. Thank you for sticking with me. Please keep sharing the game with your friends, wishlist if you havent already, and stay tuned for more exciting updates as we prepare for NextFest. Lets make this journey unforgettable! Cheers! Kezarus
