10/29/2025 log Reputation System Foundation & Battle QOL

Update Log — Additional Reputation System & Combat QOL

  • Battle QOL: Improved the skill selection UI during combat.
  • Battle QOL: Added a new "Auto-Pass Reaction" toggle to speed up combat flow.
  • New Feature: Reputation is now visible on your Character page.
  • System Foundation: Training Grounds and Shops can now have reputation requirements.

A Note

This patch adds some key quality-of-life features to combat and lays additional foundation for the Reputation system.

This is a critical building block for the upcoming Sects, as your standing with a faction will soon unlock exclusive skills and items.

10/25/2025 log New "Looking" Skill & Major Battle Rework

Update Log — New Skill & System Reworks

  • New Skill: "Looking for Someone" - You can now actively search for specific NPCs in your current location (like the Inn Attendant). This is a foundational system that will be used for many future encounters.
  • Battle System Rework - The entire battle system has been redesigned on the backend. This makes combat much more stable and reliable, paving the way for future expansions.
  • New Player Onboarding - Added several new starter events to help guide new players and explain how the world works.

A Note

This was another major foundational update. These new systems (like "Looking for Someone" and the battle rework) are the pillars that future content will be built on.

My focus is now shifting to the minor fixes and polish needed to finally unlock the new zones. I'm pouring a lot of my time into this update, and like cultivating a strong martial foundation, it cannot be rushed. These big changes are bringing us much closer to the next chapter. Thank you for your support!

10/13/2025 log Bug Fixes & New Content Foundations

Update Log — Bug Fixes & System Reworks

  • Bug Fix: The bug in the Deep Forest zone has been resolved. My apologies to all who were stuck.
  • Dialogue Overhaul: Conversations and events now have a much better flow, feeling more natural and immersive.
  • General Stability: Dozens of smaller bugs were fixed while developing the new content.

A Note

My focus has been on building the new zones. To ensure they are rich with content from day one, I am developing the new sect, skill, and item systems at the same time. This approach will make sure the new areas launch with meaningful content, not just as empty maps.

The final pieces, such as sect task boards and more immersive NPCs, are now the main focus. Thank you for your patience and for your invaluable help during this alpha test.

10/03/2025 log Places integration for faster, cleaner exploration

Update Log — Places Integration

The insides of places are now integrated directly into the exploration page.
This makes the experience faster and reduces bugs caused by page switching.

With this update, places can now handle NPC triggers inside them.
This opens the door to immersive features in future patches:

  • An inn waiter greeting the player when entering
  • Special ambush events while resting in inns
  • Text notices of other unknown martial heroes passing by in the same zone

This change is a foundation for many upcoming features and expands the possibilities for richer Wuxia adventures.

09/27/2025 log Event refactor, new zones WIP, performance WIP

Update Log

  • Event system refactor: A complete restructuring of how events are stored and triggered. This lays the groundwork for more flexible dialogues, branching logic, and scalable translation support.
  • New zones under construction: The world is expanding beyond the starting areas. These zones will bring tougher enemies, fresh encounters, and unique rewards once the foundation is ready (including the first starter sects).
  • Performance improvements (WIP): Ongoing work to optimize the backend for exploration and battles. Once complete, this will make the Jianghu smoother to traverse even as more content is added.

A Note

Sometimes the most important updates are invisible. While there isn’t much new story this week, the underlying changes are what make future content possible.

Early Alpha

More zones, stories, and systems are in active development. Feedback is welcome.
