Release Notes for Wizordum

v1.0.05 (2025-05-07)

For a long time (even in the Early Access), lots of players had problems finding the last 1% of the treasure. Treasure seeking was part of our initial idea, and it is in no way mandatory, but we know there are lots of you who enjoy the process. However, missing the last 1% can be really annoying, especially when a pile of copper coins hides amongst barrel remains.

That's why we added a new character update to the shop - Moonlight Chart. After collecting 98% of the treasure in the level, the rest will be revealed on your magic map (goblet icon). You still need to find the majority of the treasure, but the upgrade will help you with the final pieces and save you some trouble.

UPDATES

New Shop Upgrade - Moonlight Chart
Collecting special items (Torch, Seer's Orb, or Magic Map) will show the icon of the item on the HUD now.

v0.6.0.0 (2024-08-15)

New

Sorceress - new playable Character The sorceress is a formidable magic wielder, relying upon raw arcane powers to dominate the battlefield. Clothed in flowing robes that accentuate her movements, she unleashes devastating as well as strong protective spells that make her untouchable. Fast and deadly in the hands of experienced players.

Starting weapon: Wand Spells: Blink, Frost Breath, Arcane Shield, Spellhaste Ultimate ability: Emberstorm (burn enemies around you - killed enemies drop additional ammo) Stats:

This is the first new character we are adding to the game. We want each character to unlock a new way of playing the game by giving them a different starting weapon, spells, and stats.

Updated Textures Episode 1, especially the early levels, contained many textures designed at the start of the development. However, texture quality increased over time, so we revisited those textures and updated them to match the quality we strive for.

Bug Fixes

I would also like to address some of the save game issues you are facing

There were some bigger changes in some levels between the launch of Episode 2 and Hotfix v0.5.2, so if you haven't played since then and will try to load the game today, you might get stuck in the loading screen. But we don't expect any more complications from the previous hotfix (v0.5.2.2)
Some of you might have a save file issue from E2M1 (Grimbrook Foest) even if you played on v0.5.2.2. Thanks to some of your reports, we've managed to locate the issue and fix it (it was the Rat Mount problem).
If you are experiencing save game issues after today and your save games were made in v0.5.2.2 or later, please get in touch with us on Discord or send your save games to wizordum@emberheartgames.com and we will try to find a solution. Despite our great efforts, save games are still our main issue while going through EA but we are doing our best. I appreciate your patience!

Input

We realize that we still have to do a lot of fixes and updates to support the gamepad fully, but with this update, you should be able to play the game only with the gamepad, without the assistance of the mouse.
The gamepad will be detected and used if you plug it in/turn it on when the game is already running
You can navigate all the menus with the gamepad now
Missing sounds when navigating the settings
You can now change any "Selector" values with keys/gamepad (e.g., crosshair selector)
Showing gamepad buttons on interaction actions
The game will live-switch between Keyboard and mouse / Gamepad, depending on what you're using, and change input icons and show the mouse cursor accordingly.

First, I would like to address the change to the Save System. You might have noticed that your save files got corrupted a few times already since the release with almost every update. We tried to solve this issue without making significant changes, but we realized that's impossible with our flawed system. So, to provide long-term support and stability of your save files, we had to rewrite how the save games work. That includes changes to the level format. We apologize for the possible loss of your current save game files. This should provide stability for a long while.

Last but not least, we are planning some things for January 2024: Roadmap to show you where we're heading and what can you expect from the game in the future First Map Making event

Thank you for making this year magical for us by playing Wizordum and showing your constant support through feedback and bug reports! 2024 is going to be the biggest for Wizordum and we can't wait to bring you more of it.

Peace, love, and Happy New Year! Primoz, Emberheart Games

You might have noticed a series of updates since the first v0.6.1.5 update drop. The changes were minor and only applied to user content and level editor only. But since many of you were asking about the changes, here's the complete list:

Flat custom sprites rotation not working
Custom sprites do not appear in the user adventure when you play the levels from the browser
Custom-defined sprites showing invalid sprites in the level editor

0.6.1.5 (2024-10-28)

Updates

Episode 1 Boss' health lowered by 20% Lots of players found the first boss fight too difficult and rightfully so because difficulty curve is indeed very steep compared to the rest of the game. For now, we are nerfing the health by 20% but we are brainstorming other solutions as well for v1.0 release so this might not be final.
Removed input device prompt from the main menu

Bug Fixes

Storm Gauntlets sprite glitch
Elevator Switches not resetting (this could cause softlock in E2L02)
User Adventure Browser entries overlapping

Level Editor

When you'll be opening your existing levels after the update, you might encounter lots of pink textures. That's because you were using the "wrong" transparent texture and we are replacing empty slots with new textures for v1.0 release. For now, they are simply pink - use pink checkerboard texture for the transparent texture or the one next to the "turn back" face. Use the new "Replace all tiles" function to fix this in a matter of seconds.
Added "Replace all tiles" function
Missing Oak and Birch trees added
Secret Switch can now be disabled by default (parameter)

0.6.1.4 (2024-10-09)

Updates/Changes

You can now switch from Gamepad to Keyboard & Mouse input mode with a mouse-click again
Look smoothing setting added to the Input Settings
[Level Editor] Invisible switch actor added

Fix

Loading adventure with custom tileset won't show the custom tileset in the tile browser

0.6.1.3c (2024-10-07)

Updated / New

Weapon Swaying - intensity can be lowered from the game settings.
New Halloween sprites & textures for the upcoming Spooktober Mapping Event. More about that in the event news.
Few input prompt button icons changed (mainly gamepad buttons)
Custom Adventure browser changed slightly

Fixed

Custom sprites causing errors in level editor
When targeting the Enslaved rat before it is freed, action label "Free" not showing
Game Settings menu in the Main Menu can get stuck
Non-active input device actions interrupting the gameplay (eg. when playing with Keyboard & Mouse, Gamepad connected to the PC could trigger some camera movements)

Main purpose of this update is stabilize the game even more until the v1.0 release and to add some Halloween builder blocks for the Adventure creators.
