HexWind Update 2: Core Closed Beta Improvements
Hi Twilight Path Fans!
As we move forward on our latest game HexWind, we’re very excited about this significant update, which is bringing some fundamental changes that amp up the combat experience, and some highly-requested tweaks from our Beta players. In many ways, it’s a brand new HexWind - so we are excited for you to head over to the page and feel the difference.
Once again, we need to take a moment to say how your feedback has continued to inspire us – without further ado, here’s what’s new!
🌪️ Chaos Rift Battles - A Major New and Fundamental Addition to the Game
Step into the Chaos Rifts—mysterious portals that plunge you into intense battles. Experience the thrill of fighting waves of enemies, dodging traps, and navigating arcane beams, all within the distortion of Hextime.
Let’s be clear - The intensity is turned UP in these battles, as you race to gather rift shards from fallen enemies. Maybe it’s just us, but we often broke a sweat during testing.
Beat all challenges to reseal the rifts and continue on your journey.
🌀 Wand Motion Combat - A major addition to the control scheme
Highly requested and now here! Players can unleash new offensive magic with Wand Motion Combat! Now, swiping or slashing your wand creates powerful magical attacks. Get creative with your movements and discover new ways to defeat your foes. This leverages the player’s style and finesse to create a more visceral way to ‘feel’ like a wizard.
⚔️ New Mini-Boss: Cinderwraith
Meet Cinderwraith, a formidable skeleton mini-boss with a penchant for spears. Prepare yourself for an epic showdown—we think he’ll soon enter the ranks of one of the toughest skeletons in gaming.
⚡ Lightning Impale
Introducing the Lightning Impale ability: impale enemies with lightning and slam them into the ground—or into other enemies. It's a powerful new way to turn the tide in battle, and add an electrifying (groan…) experience to the gameplay.
As you can see, this update brings a ton of new functionality that bring this Beta experience a massive leap ahead in terms of showcasing our vision for the gameplay.
We know that these new features will fundamentally alter your experience and so we urge you to check them out when you can.
As always, your feedback is invaluable—please share your thoughts and experiences. Together, we're crafting something truly special.
Happy adventuring!
