Numenfall 0.3.8

[Xan]

Numenfall 0.3.5 is now released!

The focus in this release has been on reworking the early game to be much more interesting (possibly as a result of playing Operation Gatecrasher one too many times).

Some objects don't have graphics right now, so if you play in graphical mode they will appear as ascii characters.

All downloads require .NET framework 4.0 or Mono with support for .NET framework 4.0.

...2016 restoring hopes for the future even if seemingly most other spheres in the present are in a state of flaming shambles.

It is possible to click the grayed out classes, upon which the game crashes at the end of character creation.

Numenfall 0.3.6 is now released!

Notes for this release: graphical tiles are no longer fully supported.

How to report a crash (on windows): run Event Viewer (should show up if you type “Event Viewer” into the start menu search bar), and navigate to ‘Windows Logs’ -> ‘Application’. Look for an error with the ‘Source’ being “.NET runtime” around the time you ran it. Copy the info from the general tab, and also in the details tab, there should be some EventData listed; just copy that as well and post all that information either in the release thread or a new thread on the forum. If the game crashes on startup, also check 'kernel.log' in the game directory for any additional error information.

All downloads require .NET framework 4.0 or Mono with support for .NET framework 4.0.

I've uploaded a new zip (same version number) due to a bug that caused the game to crash when entering any of the random event areas.  So if anyone has downloaded the game between the initial release and now, they'll have to do so again to get the fix.

Sensible plan to hold off on the art front until things are about as fleshed out as they'll get by and large.

Numenfall 0.3.8 is now released!

Thanks to the Feedback Friday players for all the valuable feedback! This release focuses on addressing many of the issues raised by them, as well as including several bug fixes and content additions.  Of particular note is the new tutorial system, which attempts to explain new game mechanics as you encounter them.  As always, feedback, bug reports, suggestions and any other comments are welcome.

How to report a crash: Check 'kernel.log' in the game directory for any error information.

All downloads require .NET framework 4.0 or Mono with support for .NET framework 4.0.
I have not been able to test this version on Linux.  It will require you to install at least SDL2 as a dependency.
