PROGRESS

  • We released the kraken! The Combat Arena Alpha is fully out and playable to everyone! If you’re a Champion tier backer or higher and haven’t tried it out yet, now’s the best time to jump in. This release came with a lot of changes to the account system.

    • One of the most obvious changes is that we moved the leaderboard up to the top in the links section (between wiki and patch notes).

    • We also added several new statistics to the leaderboard such as favorite kinfolk, win rate, and number of matches played. Be on the look out for more further improvements to the leaderboard in the future.

  • Behind the scenes, we also did a lot of work to make the account system faster and more reliable as we scaled up for the influx of new users.

  • In game, we squashed a few bugs in an effort to reduce crashes and getting locked up. We also added an initial implementation for the game’s quality settings. If you're having trouble running the game on the default settings, consider lowering your graphics quality or running the game at a lower resolution.

COMMUNITY

  • We hope to start up our pre-alpha streaming schedule again soon! We’ll share details as plans become more concrete!

Thanks for stopping by! We’ll see you in the New Year, on January 1!
