Is this it..? The Steam release build?
More fine tuning and additions, moderation tools, some bug fixes and a brand new intro!

New Features

  • Guestbook moderation tools
    • It is now possible to delete unwanted guestbook posts
    • Deleted guestbook posts will not be completely removed, and will show who deleted them
    • Only these people can delete guestbook posts:
      • Players can delete their own posts
      • Adventure owners can delete any post in their own adventures
  • New intro clip!
    • Will show before the login screen
    • Can be skipped by pressing ESC
    • Notice that this clip will NOT stream, since we don't want any networking done before the login screen - so it will not be available on the web version; and the executable versions should re-download to get it.
  • Improvements to the map
    • We noticed that some players miss the ability to teleport to an entrance of an adventure, so we changed the button a bit
      • It was split to two buttons - 'Teleport to shrine' and 'Teleport to entrance'
      • The art better reflects the function of the buttons
    • The map cursor will turn red if it hovers above a place which cannot be teleported to
    • The map tutorial now explains about zooming in/out
  • Chat behaviour for over-crowded rooms
    • An over-crowded chat room is a room with more then 10 players in it
    • When entering an over-crowded room, only the amount of players in it will show and not their names
    • '/who' will still show the complete list of players
    • Enter/Leave messages will automatically be silenced and hidden when the room is over-crowded
      • Opening the chat will still show those messages
    • This applies to all types of chat rooms - Local chat, General, Private rooms etc...
  • The Below Kryll logo on the login screen now appears... better
  • The death count will now show in the player panel
  • Shortened the gold for praying indicator at the top right corner
  • NPC changes
    • Some NPCs were recolored to better reflect their portraits
    • The businessman is actually wearing a suit with a tie now
    • The scientist's blush portrait was altered a bit
  • The tutorial is now called training, and was changed in all the relevant places

Bug Fixes

  • Piko plants will show their colors based on true RGB values
    • The default green plant color will not be harmed in any way
    • The other colors will be much darker now due to the new calculations
      • This was not an easy decision to make, since it changes existing Piko plants around the world - But since we are just before release, we decided to do it for the future!
  • Initiating a dialog with an NPC and pressing TAB at the same time will now close the dialog correctly

That's all folks.

Enjoy!

Notice that the Steam version is still in "Early Access" mode, until we finish the new trailer.
Soon(tm)!

Death swords should stay until either someone else creates a death-sword very close to the same place, or the creator of the adventure re-publishes it for any reason.

...as permanent as an immortal that isn't invincible then. Better than nothing

Well, it's good news to see that you're finally aproaching the release date, particularly since the game's been abandoned lately :(. I wish you luck!.

What's going on in the intro video? who's the villain now :O?.

[EDIT:] Also, doesn't the intro video spoil the story for new players who haven't yet played the story levels?.

It is mostly a teaser ;)
It doesn't mean much if you don't know who those characters are.
