Charming roguelikelike The Swords Of Ditto at present launched an enormous ol’ free replace, Mormo’s Curse, including and remodeling heaps of stuff. You’ll discover new areas, new enemies, new objects, efficiency enhancements, bug fixes, and massive modifications to the general construction of the game. Our former John (RPS in peace) appreciated numerous the game’s parts in our Swords Of Ditto review however wasn’t positive of the way it all got here collectively, so an enormous ol’ brush-up sounds grand.
“The game structure has been totally gutted, and the divisive permadeath feature has been removed,” Onebitbeyond clarify in today’s announcement. “You will still fail a story if you die while climbing Mormo’s Palace at the end, or if you play in Hero Mode, but otherwise, if you fall, you will collapse and wake up in your house having dropped some cash and fragments. The game is now more forgiving and easier to enjoy.”
The announcement goes on to element giving the end-game “much more to do” and “more variation in the game’s rules”, making the overworld “denser, more engaging, and more focused”, the advantages of upgrading to a more recent model of the engine, and extra. That sounds fairly deece, and Swords Of Ditto is constructing upon a agency basis.
“I love so much about it,” John mentioned in his evaluation again in April 2018. “I love the shops, the characters, the roll, the enemies, the weapons, the puzzles… It’s just a question of whether all those excellent things entirely come together.”
“As it is, it’s a lovely, fun game that too frequently reminds me of its mistakes. And despite that, I want to keep playing. Which is probably rather important.”
Several different updates have come between John’s evaluation and this newest too.
“I’ve never been shy about the fact that I wasn’t 100% happy with our original release, and so after the Timeless Update fixed some essential issues, Mormo’s Curse was about taking the time to put it completely right,” Onebitbeyond mentioned on Twitter final week.
If you could have an in-progress save, the builders suggest beginning over “to experience Mormo’s Curse as it was intended.”
Swords Of Ditto is accessible from Steam, GOG, and the Humble Store.
