Quick Update: The Dagger From The Next Dimension
[ 2023-04-03 15:41:55 CET ] [ Original post ]
Version 1.93 The Dagger From The Next Dimension is now available in the alpha build channel for Linux and Windows. This version is for alpha testing. I made lots of changes to the base code of the game, so let me know if you find any bugs.
List of Changes and Updates:
- Windows version is now 64-bit, requiring a 64-bit version of Windows. The stand-alone Windows server is also now 64-bit.
- Chat bubbles will use different fonts depending on language being spoken. The game's text was also updated.
- Types of Will-o-the-Wisps have been expanded from 3 to a total of 10: The Old Wisps: Edgealon Aleya: slashing-based lion protective spirit of nature. Massaear Aleya: crushing-based bear protective spirit of nature. Talondor Aleya: piercing-based eagle protective spirit of nature. The New Wisps: Howlaire Aleya: fire-based wolf protective spirit of nature. Fridgalk Aleya: cold-based elk protective spirit of nature. Stormalox Aleya: lightning-based fox protective spirit of nature. Mystialog Aleya: magic-based frog protective spirit of nature. Athenaol Aleya: holy-based owl spirit of nature. Slithenake Aleya: poison-based snake spirit of nature. Pesterod Aleya: disease-based rat spirit of nature.
- A Forgotten Culture added to the game. This will be the story behind the dagger from the next dimension. I will be updating the game to add content/quests for this next.
- Ground elevation added to the game for future 3d version. Up and down arrows will appear to lead the player up or down hills when elevation gets to steep. This arrows will only appear when needed.
- Character facing direction updated to 360 degrees instead of just north/south/west/east for the future 3d version. This won't be obvious in the 2d version of DarkDIRE. But you may notice jumping will now not always be perfectly "up and down" and "left and right" now.
- Push the "U" to go into climbing mode. This is incase you get stuck in a elevation hole and cannot escape. NOTE: For really high climbs, climbing works better when not wearing armor. Can also activate by typing the new "-Climbing" command. (case-sensitive)
- Characters can now choose shading when creating characters to give the appearance of different skin colors, per player request. Admin accounts can do custom shading.
- NPCs will have random shading for different skin colors.
- NPCs will now keep the same armor and clothes when they respawn, per player request.
- BUG FIX: The game will immediately save world map data when it changes, this may fix a bug with ships, per player request.
- New Hints System: The new hint system was originally going to be image-based, but I changed to a text-based hint system. This allows me to quickly make changes to the text if needed (which I seem to have to do a lot) but the trade off is they may not (depending on screen ratio) look as nice.

Few have not heard the legend of the Knight of Torn. Using a magic sword containing a powerful angel, Sir Tomas Weryn the Torn defeated many evils during his lifetime. He led his life dedicated to protecting his kingdom from evil.
But his day did come eventually. He fell during the Battle of Blackshield. He died fighting beside the great King Blackshield himself. Fighting against the Dark Remnant's undead army.
After the battle, his body was returned to his home kingdom. It was laid to rest in a grand mausoleum with his powerful sword. But this was not to be the end of the story for his sword.
Rumors have begun to be spread as of late. Sir Weryn's magic sword has been said to have returned from the grave. But it is no longer the righteous blade it once was. It is now said to be cursed with evil. Death eventually comes to anyone that attempts to use it.
Several evil factions are seeking the blade. And unfortunately for you, this cursed sword seems to have fallen into your possession.
Inspired by old-school rogue-like and RPGs, DarkDIRE uses simple graphics/animation to build a living world. Explore endless procedurally generated kingdoms and dungeons. Gain loot by raiding enemy kingdoms. Sell it to become rich and powerful. Maybe even powerful enough to rule your own kingdom.
