Berserk! 0.8.5 (unstable) Released!

Mon, 19 Nov 2007 03:50:09 GMT

It is taking so long, I know. There's a graphical version in the works, but I don't know how much time it will take. To ease the wait, I release a halfway-to-0.9 version of Berserk!. Head to the downloads section and check it out!

Balance may be off in this one, for there were no beta versions, I just decided I need to break my silence and release something.

List of changes:
– Save and Load for non-Massacre modes
– freezing condition (lowers speed and defense)
– Snow, River and Bridge arenas
– three snow-specific monsters with new skills
– hapless townpeople in towns
– Demons!
– random quotes for every night
– lowered whirlwind cost
– move cost differs depending on terrain for player only
– additional 50% miss chance for firing at running characters
– Berserking re- and degeneration dependant on killing stuff

The new monsters are fun, but may not be balanced enough. Also the new berserker gauge may be a bit underpowered.

Warning – the replays WON'T work with saves AT ALL (best case you'll get a wierd try of play :P).

I don't know wether the score file is compatible. I guess it is, but don't hold be by my word here -_-.
