Latest Updates (Alpha)

01/13/2026 v0.10.6 Companion Bonds and Reputation Events.

Update Log: The Path of Connection

  • Companion Dynamics: Traveling with a companion can now trigger random events. If you meet certain conditions you can ask your companion to extend their stay and continue the journey by your side for a few more battles.
  • Sect Joining Fixes: We fixed a bug that allowed players to repeatedly trigger joining events for minor sects. Several other minor technical issues were also resolved to improve stability.
  • Reputation and World Events: New events have been added to the latest zones. Disciples with high reputation will find that sect NPCs now offer deeper interactions and new tasks.
01/06/2026 v0.10.3-4 Synthesis Testing, and Training Updates.

Update Log: Strengthening the Foundation

  • Training & Breakthroughs: The process for learning new skills has been redesigned. You now follow training plans to reach 100% progress. Random Breakthrough events can trigger to provide bonus progress and you can choose how to utilize these insights.
  • Synthesis Crafting (Test Phase): The Small Artisan Bench is now available for synthesis style crafting. This currently features four possible results for testing purposes. Since three of these are already in the craft recipes players should treat this as a system test rather than a hunt for new items.
  • Resting System Logic: Added the foundational support for random event triggers during rest. The underlying code is now ready for specific narrative events to be added in the coming weeks.
  • Combat Consistency: The base rate for stun resistance has been improved to ensure a more balanced battle experience.
  • World Growth: A new zone is now open with fresh NPCs and related events. New martial arts skills have also been added for you to discover and master.
  • Supporter Foundation: Added the core technical logic for the supporter system to help keep the game alive and growing.
