WeeRPG Patch Notes — July 31, 2021
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
WeeRPG private alpha v0.8 is live on Steam now! You can sign up for the WeeRPG private alpha here, we are issuing keys as we expand the alpha program.
Version 0.8 focuses on better differentiation of combat classes and the addition of mouse and keyboard control (which is still pretty rough around the edges). We've added a lot of new abilities, new weapon types, and magic armors. If you find bugs, please post them in the community hub. This is an alpha so expect unbalanced gameplay, unfinished features, and occasional crashes.
New Features
- The game now supports keyboard and mouse play. Press Enter on the title screen and use the arrow keys to select a character.
- Loading screen shows both keyboard and controller controls.
- Added mage staffs as a weapon type. These attack like a spear but always grant a magic missile ability.
- Non-magic weapons and armor can now have some utility abilities.
- Game now supports specific abilities for weapons instead of always random-roll.
- Added 20 staffs to the game.
