About the Game
STORY
Long ago, the Celts and their culture ruled much of the land. But various natural disasters and invasions by other peoples decimated their population and brought their culture to the brink of extinction. Before this, the Celtic gods were devastated but accepted the fate that had been imposed on them. All except the evil Morrigan, who decided to corrupt the much-revered land of the Celts to prevent that fate.The Druid is a roguelike 2D platform game where we play as a druid, created from Dagda, whose mission is to stop Morrigan and free the land of its corruption.
KEY FEATURES
- A modular generation system to offer a great experience in different levels of the game.
- Up to 54 available upgrades to combine with our character and obtain new abilities.
- The game will feature three playable areas that will be full of enemies, from the simplest to bosses that will make a difference in combat.
- The Celtic god Dagda asks for help to defeat the evil Morrigan and stop the corruption she is spreading through the world.
Project made for the B.A. in Interactive Product Design of U-tad, University of Technology, Arts and Design.

Up to date
So, we're back at it again, folks.
Hopefully, this is the last patch we have to release reagarding bug fixing (who am I kidding? Of course not, the journey of game development is never over :3).
Enough talking, here are the patch notes:
On a side note, looking forward, we'd love to bring support to both MacOS and Linux and it's something we've been working and testing for a few weeks already, but we're still wroking on it so it performs just as we expect.
We'd also love to bring to life some of our early scrapped content from the initial stages of development, but that's something on the long road.
Having said that, have a great afternoon.
Cheers.

Hopefully, this is the last patch we have to release reagarding bug fixing (who am I kidding? Of course not, the journey of game development is never over :3).
Enough talking, here are the patch notes:
- Fixed a bug where the platform leading to the top at the end of the Tutorial appeared before the player triggered the Cauldron explanation, allowing him to skip that dialogue.
- We've patched an upgrade (Air Spirit - Slot Head) that caused the player to permanently lose move speed when overriding such upgrade under certain circumstances.
- Fixed an oversee that caused the Crow to not fly away when finishing a dialogue with it.
- We've changed an upgrade (Dark Essenece - Slot Arm) to now heal a %5 of the damage dealt by the last attack, instead of a 5% of the total target HP, due to an internal missbehave, causing targets not to properly register being killed. It was also a bit imbalanced when facing bosses :3
- Fixed a bug that caused an upgrade (Water Essence - Chest) to not heal the player properly. It was supposed to heal a 25% of your total HP.
- Fixed a bug where the player could get soft-locked inside a Dark Portal containing Dark Flyer enemies if they ran far away from the player, being unable to detect him.
- Fixed some issues regarding the enemies' AI logic
On a side note, looking forward, we'd love to bring support to both MacOS and Linux and it's something we've been working and testing for a few weeks already, but we're still wroking on it so it performs just as we expect.

Hey, folks.
We're over here once again today (you all may be tired about all of the spam :3)
We're now bringing you a couple more fixes we've found and certain issues have been addressed. Hopefully, the part 2 is better than the part 1 (as it should be, am I right?).
Anyway, here are the patch notes:
That's all from us (hopefully, this is the last hotfix we have to release today :3)
We hope you all have a nice day and enjoy while you play.
Cheers.

Anyway, here are the patch notes:
- Fixed an inconsistent crash that happened when switching levels.
- Fixed a string that was using the wrong Localization parameters and was displaying wrong data.
- We've re-enabled the Options sub-menu inside the Pause menu as the previous errors seem to have ben addressed
- Fixed a bug where the player could skip the Tutorial exit by Dashing over the detection point and fail to load the next level.
- We've addressed the previous issue regarding settings not being saved (it was a visual bug regarding the rebidings not updating to show the custom ones made by the player)
That's all from us (hopefully, this is the last hotfix we have to release today :3)
We hope you all have a nice day and enjoy while you play.
Cheers.
Hey, folks.
While we were at Dream Hack Valencia, we discovered some minor issues with the game and we're rushing this little patch to fix those. We hope you enjoy playing the game and if any of you is nearby, come pay us a visit.
And that's all from us. We'll be releasing more hotfixes along the day as we investigate and fix those mentions.
Cheers.

While we were at Dream Hack Valencia, we discovered some minor issues with the game and we're rushing this little patch to fix those. We hope you enjoy playing the game and if any of you is nearby, come pay us a visit.
- Fixed a bug where the player could still move when he was dead.
- We've enabled a Tutorial button inside the Options sub-menu from the Main menu, that way, you can all still experience the Tutorial once you've completed it.
- We've temporarily disabled the ability to modify the Options while in game via the Pause Menu while we investigate some issues regarding that menu. You can still perform such actions via the Options sub-menu from the Main menu.
- We're aware of some issues regarding some settings not being saved under certain circumstances and we are performing further investigation.
And that's all from us. We'll be releasing more hotfixes along the day as we investigate and fix those mentions.
Cheers.
We've fixed a small but annoying (and quite game-breaking) bug that slipped under our sight in previous patch notes.
We're aware of some other "unintended features" and we are investigating them, so expect a new hotfix in the coming days.
Have fun and enjoy your playthroughts :3

- Fixed a bug where, under certain circumstances (the player didn't have enough currency), the game froze upon "purchasing" a Dagda's Cauldron. Now, it also displays a text pop up telling you the outcome.

Some unintended "features" that we considered patched have apparently slipped into our previous releases. Hopefully, we've managed to patched them this time and keep them as happy little accidents.
And that's all we had. Thank you to all of you who keep supporting us and enjoying the game.
Cheers :3

- Fixed a bug where certain enemies were not recorded as targets when purifying a portal, resulting in an early exit before killing them all.
- Fixed a bug where enemies from Dark Portal could spawn Spirit NPCs and those could be missed when exiting the portal.
- Fixed a bug where the main cross at the Golem spawn chamber would collide with the player.
- Fixed a bug where, under certain circumstances, the default Strong Attack couldn't be casted.
- Fixed a bug where, under certain circumstances, the default Strong Attack would remain active until any other offensive action was recorded, creating a funny but unintended bug where you could just walk and hit enemies for no reason (hopefully, this is the last time we have to patch this).
- Fixed some enemies' logic issues regarding line of sight.
- Fixed a bug where certain type of enemies were unable to perform any action, resulting in them just idling doing nothing.
And that's all we had. Thank you to all of you who keep supporting us and enjoying the game.
Cheers :3
We've discovered some minor bugs regarding our latest Hotfix thanks to you all.
Again, thanks to you all for reporting your feedback. We're looking forward to improving our game and we expect to keep developing The Druid even further with more content coming in the future.
