*gasp* The game's alive!

OK. Let me get serious for a moment. I know I haven't posted much here (mainly IRL stuff getting in the way). The game is still in development, but I never posted here for a long time. There are a lot of changes that I've made since posting the game on this site. I will fix up the thread after 9th of March (university stuff).

I'll see you guys next time.

AceOfAces updated Immortal Sins with a new update entry:

Version D0.32 Update 1 released!

This update (codenamed "New Translation") is quite substantial. This brings a substantial amount of re-writes to the story, flashing out a lot of details in the process. There may be a few areas to improve, but this should improve the story. Why am I calling this update "New Translation"? Well... It's like me, a metaphorical archeologist, going back and translating the scripts. In addition, I have implemented some code so when the game updates, it will only extract new data. This is done to...

AceOfAces updated Immortal Sins with a new update entry:

Version D0.32 Update 2 released!

This update is more of a technical rework rather than a more substantial update. Notable improvements are the improved performance and splitting the audio files into their own pack (which should reduce the size of updates in some cases).

• Performance improvements.
• Implemented a tweak as to how the engine will handle the memory. Hopefully, this will fix the issue where the game would discard any necessary images too early.
• Split the audio into its own package.
• Tweaked how...

AceOfAces updated Immortal Sins with a new update entry:

Build 20210531 released

Well... talk about rapid-fire.

Anyway, pushed out a new update to roll back a fix that broke the saves. Specifically, a change that would no longer treat weapons and armor as separate items. This would result in breaking the database. This build puts the original behavior back. If you started a new game... you'll have to start again, sadly. I'm really sorry for this. At least I managed to sneak in a few improvements.

Changelog:

• Rolled back the fix for the equipment, as it broke...

AceOfAces updated Immortal Sins with a new update entry:

Northbridge Update: April 11th 2022

Released a patch for the game today, which brings a small update to the launcher (if you are playing the game on Linux, you can skip this one). With this update, the package versioning and the list of file hashes (used to verify that there are no tampered, damaged or missing files that would break the game) are separate from the launcher. When the game starts, it will load them up from a few files. This makes it easier to push out updates to the game (and implement future features as well)...
