Hi Everyone,
Here is more development news about the upcoming potion crafting update. After implementing the new potions, ingredients and the crafting system, we played the game and one thing became obvious immediately. We need more inventory space. So we worked on that and not only doubled but tripled the inventory space. Now there are three backpack pages where you can activate with tabs. Inventory slot count raised from 50 to 150.
We also made the food items stackable too. That further saves some inventory space. Items can be carried between pages by clicking the tabs with item at hand. Now it is much more fun to collect and hoard all the ingredients and loot you find.
This was a much needed feature for this update. The thing is, since we have ability to craft, one wants to collect and keep more ingredients. For example, you have agaric mushrooms but you need cinnamon to mix a healing potion. So you don’t sell the mushrooms but wait to find some cinnamon. Or you find an expensive ingredient which you don’t know a recipe to use. You might want to wait for the recipe be available so that takes another inventory slot. Now with 150 slots to place items, there is no inventory space problem.
We also added several new ingredients for mixing the new potions. One of the valuable ones is Golem Heart. As you know from wood golems to stone and metal golems there is no shortage of golems at Terra Randoma. Nobody knows who made them but they have been around forever. It is obvious that current technology of the island is not enough to build these machinations. All we know about them is that they have a crystal heart that gives them life. It may be some kind of a battery but who knows?
Golem Heart may be dropped by all types of golems and will be used to craft an alchemy level 20 concoction: Potion of Renewal.
That’s all for now. Thanks for reading. May the tides bring you triumph!
