About the Game
Swordhaven is a fantasy cRPG inspired by Infinity Engine titles—Baldur’s Gate 1, Icewind Dale, etc.—as well as other classics.
You take up the mantle of a lonely adventurer on their way to the barely explored land of Nova Drakonia.
During your voyage, you are met by a dying man who trusts you with a peculiar artefact that will involve you in an adventure of a lifetime, and a plot that threatens everything you’ve ever known and loved.
Some of Swordhaven’s core features include:

Greetings, dear friends!
Thank you for the positive reception of the Early Access launch of Swordhaven. We greatly appreciate your trust in our team, and we are committed to bringing you more content to enjoy. Additionally, we are focused on addressing the issues you've uncovered and reported while playing.
The most glaring issues were addressed on day one thanks to your swift response, and many more substantial fixes are on the way. These include a wide range of problems, from mouse click delays and pointer offset on 4K resolution screens to rowdy chickens provoking aggressive fauna to assault villagers, as well as players being unable to reach a chest due to a pathing error, unfair crafting tool self-destruction rates, ammo shortages, etc.

As an example of this, here's an explanation of what your feedback influence crafting-wise:
The tool component used in crafting will have a definite use count. When you buy a brand new tool, it will come with a limited number of uses. Each crafting attempt with this tool will deplete one use point and will either produce the item you were crafting (if your skill check is successful) or not (if it fails). This system makes crafting more controllable, reduces reliance on randomness, and increases overall openness.
Of course, your feedback will be the defining factor in this.
Balance will take a bit longer to completely level out, but we're getting there.
First of all, we will enhance the default Normal difficulty, as we plan to add Easy and Hard modes with their own unique features soon. To achieve this, the Normal mode should be as close to ideal as possible. We understand that this is an ongoing process, so please feel free to share your thoughts.
More content is planned for Balance—and ultimately, fun—including ability-teaching masters, secret ability scrolls, and peaceful abilities that some of you asked us to incorporate. Hit, miss, and dodge rates, weapon technique values, and much more will evolve sooner, thanks to your feedback!
NOTE: Viltyb is not a bug. Trust us on this one :-)
A lot of work is being done to optimize the game for various hardware configurations. As a small team, we don't have access to many machines for playtesting our games, but the data that you provided has greatly compensated for that.
The low FPS bug present on certain machines, crashes on Linux, and other issues have mostly been resolved by now. As is the case with all our projects, the game will become more efficient on hardware with every update. That FPS count won't stay in single digits for long—trust us!
Another beautiful thing about Early Access is all the feedback we received from you in these few days. Quality of Life ideas like:
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44870142/4a67c0eb676952f93ebce1e849505a8f9962d765.jpg
Honestly, there are more good ideas than we can list here, or this thread will grow to abhorrent size =) We are thankful to each and every one of you for all the great ideas.
We will keep working non-stop until most issues are dealt with, and parallel to that we will be continuing the development.
A major update will come in 1.5-2 months, and there you will get a large new chunk of content, including resolutions to quests you may have started in this version, new quests, new characters, dungeons, weapons, armours and items.
A much more thorough summation of what to expect from the first big update will come out later.

Thank you for a great start to Swordhaven's story! Stay tuned for more.
