Knight of the Forgotten Realm Alpha 2 is now live!

The time has come, 6 months from the release of Alpha 1, Knight of the Forgotten Realm Alpha 2 is now live on Itch.io. This alpha encapsulates many changes, most notably the major combat overhaul known as Combat V2, which turned the games ability based combat system into a combo based one. Also, to compliment Combat V2, when Vali gains momentum in combat, he can draw some of Lucian's energy to overcharge his soul, increasing damage exponentially. To build out Vali, an attribute point system was added along with a rework of every passive soul enhancement in the game.

Oh, but the new editions don't stop there! Players will now get to learn the backstory of the realm and what led to Vali being in the Forbidden Forest with the new opening cinematic. Due to feedback received in Alpha 1, a new tutorial was added to the game, which includes conversation between Vali and his mentor Matthias. After the tutorial is finished, you'll wake up in the expanded and enhanced Forbidden Forest, which will now ease you into the game a bit gentler than before. Along the way you'll notice it's been visually refined to look more lived in and come across the enhanced Abandoned Mine. Each weren't just visually enhanced though, the AI that roam have become smarter and more agile, proving to be tougher challenge for Vali.

This update was monumental for Knight of the Forgotten Realm and I hope you enjoy checking it out. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, as every bit received in Alpha 1 was taken to heart. The best part is, Alpha 2 is only just the beginning, Alpha 3 will bring many big additions such as a complete UI overhaul, new level, new AI, new combos to obtain, and more!
