« on: May 22, 2014, 07:24:43 PM »

Team ADOM is happy to announce that we have released ADOM 1.2.0p23 to the general public!

You can find all the details here:
http://www.ancientdomainsofmystery.com/2014/05/adom-120p23-released-to-general-public.html

The downloads, changelogs and more are available here:
http://www.ancardia.com

There are tons of changes since the last public release, please refer to the change log for details: http://www.ancardia.com/changelog.html
Personally I'm particularly interested in feedback on the new tutorial mode. We'd like to add much more to it to make ADOM more accessible for a new generation of players - so any feedback is very welcome!

What about spectating?

We have discussed it but to be honest: I'm not yet clear on the technical details (how to implement it). Are there any good pointers related to some standard way of implementing spectating on Steam? We have that on our list but honestly have to research ways to implement it a bit more ;-)

Hi everyone!

I am happy to announce that ADOM now has entered the Steam Greenlight process:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=258925365

Additionally there now is a group available for Steam related ADOM discussion:
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/adom-fans

ADOM for Steam Greenlight will incorporate shared and global highscores, an extensive achievement system, various Deluxe features (like point-based character generation, etc.) and hopefully also an in-game chat. We are looking forward to all comments and hope for your support to make the next step in ADOM's long... nay... ancient history.

Thanks!

Most important probably is a bug fix to a major crash issue we stupidly introduced in p18. Sorry for that ;-)

Hi everyone!

I'm happy to announce ADOM II 0.3.1 (formerly known as JADE), which specifically fixes various problems with the new audio support and adds a slew of minor changes.

* Added "w_" command to walk to the nearest known altar (RFE 1559).

* Fixed shopkeepers losing readable items (issue 1194).

Traditional Roguelikes (Turn Based) / ADOM II (JADE) 0.3.0 has been released!

« on: December 24, 2012, 01:01:12 AM »

Greetings everyone!

After somewhat of a hiatus due to working on the ADOM crowd funding rewards I decided to slip in an ADOM II release as a kind of Christmas gift. So ADOM II 0.3.0 now is available!

You can read all the details about the release at

http://www.ancientdomainsofmystery.com/2012/12/adom-ii-030-released-merry-christmas.html

It's available for download in the usual place:

http://www.adom.de/adom-ii/downloads/javawebstart/index.php

The most important additions probably are the missile combat system and the revised UI (lots of stuff still going to happen) in order to simplifying getting into the game. Additionally there's now a little imagery (thanks to Krzysztof Dycha) as well as some sound and music (thanks to Lucas Dieguez).

Enjoy the release, Merry Christmas, love, peace, freedom, health and happiness to everyone out there!
