Atlantean Ships Theme

Theme made by Tobi 

Also a video of sailing in the Dark Sea recorded by galaga

Ultimate Art Fire Surge

New rare spell being added in this update which deals constant damage while the button is held down for up to 8 seconds, while giving the user some damage resistance. (The version used in the vid is an ultimate art so its bigger and more destructive than a regular one would be. Also ultimate arts for this spell won't be available until higher level cap)

Some Dark Sea Rewards

Here are some pics of some of the new Dark Sea armor sets and enchantment types. This might be all I show of them cause I want to keep a lot of the content rewards a surprise until the update

More Dodge Reflexes (patreon-exclusive video by galaga)

Posting this here since not all of you are in the patreon channel in the discord

Finished Dark Sea Procedurally-Generated Islands

Here are some sets of procedurally generated islands (First pic is small islands, second is medum, third is large)

All islands shown were fully procedurally generated from nothing, and since the last post about them I've added tons more randomization and other small details to them. So far they've been sick to explore in-game and kind of a different feeling for me, since I usually view islands in studio first before ever exploring them in-game, this is the first time I can really explor...

New Dark Sea Enemy Appearances

Don't let their looks deceive you, their true form is terrifying 😨

Dark Sea Item Modifier

Some items found in the Dark Sea, or items dropped by Atlanteans, can have the Atlantean modifier on them, which gives the item Insanity plus a bit of another stat that the item doesn't have. It also affects the appearance of items, and can be applied manually to accessories/chestpieces/leggings using Atlantean essence, a rare item in the Dark Sea. Once an item has Atlantean applied to it, it cannot be taken off.

Procedural Island Generation for the Dark Sea (WIP)

For the past few days I've been working on this in a separate studio file and I thought I'd share the progress here. It's still very early on, with biome or feature placement yet, but the generation itself is coming along better than I imagined.

In each image, a 5x5 grid of generated islands is shown. Their colors indicate their shape type.

The first image is when I finished the rough shape types, which are:

- Red: Random shapes placed and rotated near the center
- Yellow...

Brig Showcase by galaga

Shipyard tabs

I know this was long requested but i never really had time to add it until now, plus I felt like it was a good time now that theres yet another type of ship part added (siege weapons)

Also I wanna give a huge thank you to those that have been patrons for a long time, at the end of last year it was extremely rough getting by and without you guys the game probably would have been delayed even longer than it was. 

I'll be posting more small stuff like this on here regularly, but...

Brig broadside and mortar firing

Finished Brig model

12 cannons on each side, 2 front cannons, 1 (or 2?) siege weapon slots, ram slot, and a fully customizable captain's cabin with new features (will make a separate post when the customization of the captain's cabin is fully done since a lot of the stuff in there is placeholder)

Will be fully color customizable like other ships are, also only the right side has cannons in these pics since its not actually in-game yet

Also I decided to rename it to Brig instead of Frigate, since the ...

Jewelcrafting

Pretty cool small feature that allows for additional types of builds and boosts while also giving pve/explorer players another thing to do. In the Dark Sea Update I plan to also add exotic types of gems that give 2 different stats when crafted into a jewel,  and other stuff like that

(Spoiler warning) New sea monster

idk how to mark something as spoiler on here or if its even possible but I felt a warning was fair in case people wanted to see it in-game before being spoiled what it was

Also: DON'T MESSAGE ME ON HERE ANYMORE - if you want to ask me something its best to just @ me in the patreon channel of the discord

(SPOILER: Obolus is a species of large, heavily scaled anglerfish that is capable of bending light around it to make itself appear invisible. They are known to lur...

Underwater Structures on the Map

In the next update, you can reveal underwater structures on the map by finding Sea Charts in Sailor Chests, which also shows you a total Diving % for that server. When you complete all underwater structures in a single server, you get the Bronze Sea Diver title and badge

My bad for not posting on here as much but I don't have much time nowadays to get pics for dev updates and stuff, it always ends up taking a lot of time and is sometimes frustrating, but it is what it is

Underwater Improvements in the Brewing Update

Underwater structures and diving points are now pretty much complete, as well as an underwater lighting and ambience improvement. These structures will serve as a way to get good loot in exchange for a risk, or by use of potions to reduce the risk, as well as some potion reagents which will be found in these structures. 

You will also be able to get a unique title for looting all 20 underwater structures in a server. (20 underwater structures and 60 diving points are randomly gener...

First Update Started

Finally getting back into working on the game after having to deal with all that hotfix bs for a week. I also took a few days break to just play some games and relax, but I'm ready to start grinding the next update now. Won't have anything to show for a few days probably since there are a lot of bugs to fix before I start working on the brewing stuff.

I'll also be reading all my messages on here which I'm super behind on

Warlord (Str/Weapons) showcase by Soliel

This will probably be the last showcase before early access release. I'll definitely be posting stuff regarding AO's first update though when I start working on that. Hope everyone is ready for release!

New map features

Added these things to each island called "exploration tasks" which give XP when completed and change the island's name to gold. Completing all of them across all islands in a sea will give a unique title, such as "Bronze Sea Explorer" for the Bronze Sea one. Ravenna is one of the larger islands so it has a ton of tasks, but smaller wilderness islands only have a few

Warlord Awakening showcase by Inferno

Awakenings are finally done and I'll try to post more pics of them soon. I'm currently working on finishing up the map UI and adding a cool feature to it that promotes exploring even more, and I'll post pics of that too when its finished.

Early access is coming up soon at the end of this month, I have a date I'm aiming for but won't announce it til its a bit closer

Also, be sure to connect your patreon account to discord to join the patreon channel cause a lot of extra stuff is po...

Awakenings progress, weapon aura effects, build charging visuals

Hey yall, as you probably know I've been working on awakenings and build-related stuff the past few days and I'm happy to say that they're almost done. I also added build-based charging effects that can blend together if you're a hybrid build.

As for release, stuff is still looking good to release in February, and even though it won't have as much on release as I wanted, I'm confident it'll be good enough, as my only goal is that people can play and get a sense of what the game is focus...

Revamped World Map

Part of the revamped world map UI. So far its pretty much just improved visuals and the same functionality as world of magic. I originally thought this would only take like 4 total days to fully complete but because of roblox issues mentioned in the last post its taken a lot longer, and honestly I don't know when I'll work on the map again since its been probably the most frustrating feature in the entire game

Blast Shape Options

I already posted these pics in the patreon channel in discord but figured I'd post them on here since I haven't posted in a while. I'll try to get clips of explosions and such and gifs of different shapes on different magics soon

My bad for not fulfilling my goal lately of posting on here a few times per week, but with me mainly working on story and then taking a 2 day break there wasn't really much to show. Roblox has been incredibly frustrating the past month with bugs and limitations...

Updated world news feature

Glad to have brought this back from World of Magic and updated it to include a lot more topics. Special thanks to night, noober, mimhere, kris, cryonical, phrax, trollus, and beans in the discord for helping write all the text for the different types

I'm also thinking of adding a thing to this that shows a daily "fishing hotspot" that changes to a different island every in-game day, where you get faster fishing bites

Animation improvements pt2

(had to make it 2 different posts since you can't post 2 vids in 1 post apparently)

Animation improvements pt1

Some animation improvements I got done adding today

Magma Magic visuals

Here are the new magma magic visuals, recorded by Herodue. 

Now that the new base magic spell is done, I'll be working on re-adding the world map and world news features from World of Magic with some improvements, so I'll probably post some pics of those on here once they're done, and after those I'll be starting the first set of "lost stuff" (1 rare spell, 1 rare weapon, and 1 rare technique)

Also, thank you to all the new supporters that joined over the past month! I've got...

Showcase video by Soliel

Here's a vid of various activities by Soliel, note that the video is currently unlisted and will probably be made public in a few days, so don't share the link anywhere yet.

Snow Magic visuals showcase

Recorded by Cryonical

Had to spend the past 2 days fixing bugs since there were so many of them, now I'll be resuming progress on finishing up the last story parts and finishing Shell Island's quests and Sailor Style mentor
