Things have been busy, but progress continues!
dash attacks now come with visual markers to make them easier to track.
This applies to the farmer, including both of its stronger variants.

We're experimenting with a more reactive look for the UI
Cards now glow, flicker, and burn out once their effects end.
not final yet but we're getting there!

We've used modified Raider-Waite cards in Witchhammer for a while, mostly to save time.
They've served us well, but readability's always been tricky.
So we're finally making our own, starting with the Suit of Wands.
more soon!

We just rolled out a new update to the Witchhammer demo on Steam.
You can now test the Frozen Lake map, summon the first two Mage skeletons (Cups and Wands), try out the full Pentacle suit, and zip around with The Chariot.
Enjoy playing!

Fantasy Basel is a wrap!
We witnessed more than 30 wins and at least 40 deaths across all difficulties and got a ton of helpful feedback. We're already working on new content to further shape Witchhammer into the experience we imagine it to be.
Thanks for playing, more soon!

Reworked our snow shader so we can reuse materials across environments.
Now it's just one slider to go from regular to snow, instead of duplicating materials across scenes.
