This week we are joined by Ernest Scribner of EmergentMage.com, for a play through of the latest build, 12.3. Will Thomas finally be able to show the completion of an in-game quest? Will he even be able to find a quest? Watch for exciting answers to these questions!

With the 3D dungeons in place, it is time to improve the Combat Experience. This video update walks through the principles and goals of this major build. We are making our internal design document available to you for review and comment. This is a level of transparency and inclusiveness we’ve never done before!

WIP of Daniel2’s Dirty Dungeons of Despair!

We have successfully upgrade the game from Unity 5.6 to 2019.3 and will now continue to track with the latest Unity versions. Dungeon tech continues to develop as we add grime and staining to the walls. Finally, we will soon start working on Build 13 - Combat, where you get to participate in the design discussion.

We fixed every bug reported, improved the dungeons, and added new features based on discussions in the Steam Forums. This is the best version of Archmage Rises yet!

Today my good friend Neil joins me for a totally unscripted playthrough of Build 12 and the 3D dungeons. When I say unscripted, everything that could go wrong, did! Audio problems, gameplay bugs, 10 foot poles, live code editing and game recompiling, all in the unwavering quest to find The Grigg Ring! Every other Let's Play of Archmage Rises will be better than this one!

In this update we celebrate the team who built Build 12. If you are part of the pre-alpha pre-order group, go to Steam and play it now!

Detailed release notes for Build 12.1 Dungeons released today May 8 2020

This week the small council said Build 12 is good enough (done enough) to release to everyone, as long as we fix some major bugs. And we added another programmer!

It was a hectic week of several 12-hour days, but we finally got Build 12 playable enough for the fan Small Council to review.

We’ll see what they say…
