Siralim Demo Changelog

What's new in Siralim Demo 2.0.10

Apr 15, 2015

GENERAL:
Added a new type of item: Handfuls. These items are extremely common and contain a small amount of resources.
These items can be found in chests, as rewards for completing Duties, and in many other places.
These items "open" themselves when they are acquired for the sake of simplicity.
Added a new option to the Gem Temple: Upgrade. This option allows you to increase your gems' levels in exchange for essence.
You can now cast Alteration spells while in the castle, and these spells now work more flexibly than before.
Greatly improved loot allocation.
Players in low Realm levels are no longer destined to find only garbage.
Players in high Realm levels now have a higher chance to find BETTER items, not necessarily MORE items.
This method should cut down on the overall quantity of items clogging your inventory.
Drop rates will be tweaked in the future based on player feedback, so don't worry if things aren't perfect quite yet!
Smogs, Phase Warrior, Storms, and Doom Fortresses have new graphics.
Reduced the level requirement and granite cost for several key upgrades, such as the Blacksmith and Enchanter.
Reduced the level requirement for several early Castle Quests. This should prevent the need to grind levels early on.
Resource satchels now grant significantly more resources than before.
Enemy Nether Creatures will not be quite as powerful in early levels when you have no choice but to fight them, such as for Duties.
Adjusted several Major Sigils to be more challenging (thanks, VagrantSun!)
Added internal support for Steam achievements. There are currently 249 achievements. An achievement interface for non-Steam users will be added at a later time on all platforms.
Touch control options are now hidden for Windows/Mac users.
ABILITIES:
Adaptation (Regal Golem) now grants 100% more stats than before.
Countervail (Diamond Imling) is no longer limited to only working the first time the creature's partner dies.
Death Pact (Blood Reaper) now creates a Barrier based on the slain creature's Maximum Health rather than Current Health.
Final Oblation (Mouth of Hell) has been reworked: After defending, creature dies and deals damage to all enemies equal to 200% of its missing health.
Netherbane (Djinn Arcanomancer) has been reworked: Enemy Nether Creatures always have Cripple and Weak.
Unholy Legend (Witch Doctor Necromancer) is no longer limited to only working the first time a creature dies.
BATTLE:
Creatures of a certain class no longer deal bonus damage to a different class.
Each creature class typically has lower defense against a certain class anyway, so this bonus damage made battles unnecessarily tedious.
USER INTERFACE:
When you upgrade a Royalty Point perk, it now spends as many points as needed to increase the perk's rank rather than allocating only 1 point at a time.
The Action Queue in battle should now have better text alignment.
BUG/CRASH FIXES:
Fixed a bug that caused cats to walk backward.
Fixed several bugs/crashes associated with position-based abilities.
Fixed a crash that could occur when a creature died in battle.

Fixed a bug that caused enemy creatures to cap at level 20000.
Fixed a bug with the Nightmare Golem's Bad Dreams ability that caused it to immediately wake up its target.
Fixed a bug that caused the Wyvern Skystalker's "Upheavel" ability to afflict the wrong creatures with Scorn.
Fixed a bug that allowed players with Castle Quests disabled to have access to certain upgrades much sooner than intended.
Fixed a bug that caused a certain Life Realm battle event to heal dead creatures.
Fixed a bug with the Armageddon spell that could occasionally cause the game to freeze.
Fixed several bugs with the Soulstone Splinter ability.
Fixed a bug with the Razorsharp ability that caused attacks to sometimes bounce when the original attack did no damage.
Fixed a bug that prevented players from casting a Daily Powerspell on the same day that they unlocked this feature.
Fixed several bugs that could cause artifacts to end up with blank properties.
Fixed a bug that caused extraction Duties to sometimes require you to extract from creatures that cannot be extracted from.
Fixed a bug that caused certain Duties related to Gump Mummies to not give credit to the player for killing them.
Fixed a crash that could occur when using the final consumable item in your inventory.
Fixed a bug with the Adaptation ability that caused it to not grant buffs in certain realms.
Added a safety check to prevent crashes when saving the game.

New in Siralim Demo 2.0.9 (Apr 1, 2015)

GENERAL:
Added a new option to the creature context menu: Strategy. This allows you to set each of your creatures' default battle menu selections.
Added a new type of Nether Orb: Imbued Nether Orb. These orbs are ultra-rare and can exceed the maximum number of activations/gems that normal orbs have.
Added a new type of item: Potions. These items grant you additional Royalty Points when you drink them.
Added a new type of item: Elixirs. These items allow you to reset your Royalty Points when you drink them.

New in Siralim Demo 2.0.6 (Mar 20, 2015)

GENERAL:
Enemies now scale by your creatures' experience points rather than level.
The strength of enemy Nether Creatures now scales based on your character level.
They should be much easier at lower levels, and much more difficult at higher levels.
You can now hold down the E key (PC/Mac) or A button (Android/iOS) in battle to quickly cycle through battle messages.
Updated graphics for more NPCs.
Gem Boxes have been recolored to look more consistent with the rest of the game.
Changed the name of several Royalty Point bonuses to make it easier to find what you're looking for.
The smooth font is now the default font.
ABILITIES:
IMPORTANT: Your creatures can now benefit from multiple copies of the same ability. If not, it will now say so in its ability description.
-Example: Gust Aura gives all your creatures a 15% chance to dodge attacks. If you have two creatures with Gust Aura, the game will now give your creatures a 15% chance to dodge an attack, and if that fails, it will give your creatures another 15% chance to dodge the attack.
However, you cannot stack abilities by giving a creature an artifact that grants the same ability as its innate ability.

Clemency: After successfully extracting from a target, afflict it with Dying.
Cradle to the Grave: Now moves to a random position on the Action Queue on resurrection, rather than always being at the top.
Crawl Through Knives: Ability cannot kill creatures anymore. This is a temporary fix to prevent a crash before we overhaul the battle engine in the next update.
Darkness Fate: Name changed to Hungering. After this creature attacks, each of your Bats deal damage equal to 20% of their Attack to the same target.
Disciple of War: Now also heals a creature for 20% health when it is attacked by a Death creature.

New in Siralim Demo 2.0.1 (Mar 10, 2015)

GENERAL:
Almost all of the game's graphics have been redone. The remaining old graphics (some NPCs and some creatures) will be redone for the next patch.
Added over 100 new creatures to the game.
Several of these creatures are only obtainable by completing certain tasks around the castle.
Also added 10 new creature tier upgrades to the castle.
Reshuffled the creatures unlocked with each tier.
Changed the creatures obtained from Powerspells and Bynine's shop.
New Feature: Royalty Points. Each time you gain a level or complete a Duty, you will receive a certain amount of Royalty Points.
These points can be spent in one of three categories of your choice: Character, Creature, or Perk.
The "Character" category allows you to increase your mana pool, increase your spell slots, manipulate your power balance minimum/maximum, unlock new features/bonuses, and much more.
The "Creature" category allows you to increase your creatures' stats or grant them special bonuses in combat.
The "Perks" category is different depending on which of the 5 classes you chose at the start of the game. Each class has 5 unique perks that are intended to change your playstyle.
You cannot reset points invested in the Character or Creature categories. You can reset points invested in the Perk category by using a class-changing item from Bynine.
Royalty Points are rewarded retroactively, so if you already have a save file you will probably have a lot of points you can spend immediately.
To spend Royalty Points, go to your Character sheet and follow the instructions.
Maximum Spellbook Slots and Maximum Rituals no longer increase with your character's level - instead, these values are increased by investing Royalty Points into certain bonuses.
When you load a legacy save file, the scrolls in your spellbook will be placed back into your inventory so you will need to re-equip them.
When you load a legacy save file, you will be given a temporary increase to your Maximum Rituals if you have too many rituals already in progress.
New Online Feature: Daily Power Spells. Each day you can now cast one free, instant Power Spell. The amount of power invested is random.
You must unlock this feature by completing a new upgrade in the War Room, available at level 26.
Added a "Save & Continue" option to the menu. This option is unavailable for Hardcore Mode players.
Added a new option (Options --> Gameplay) to change the font style to the one we were using prior to patch 1.3.0. It's larger now so it still works with the new user interface.
Added experimental support for additional types of gamepads (many of the most popular ones were already supported).
You can no longer sacrifice cores or convert them into Minor Sigils if they are "special" cores (obtained through events, power spells, Bynine, etc).
The game engine has been updated and loading times should now be much faster.
BATTLE:
Luck (stat) has been revamped.
Now when creatures attack, there is a chance the attack will be either a "mortal" or "glancing" blow.
Mortal blows cause an attack to deal extra damage, glancing blows cause an attack to deal less damage.
The chance for a mortal blow and the damage bonus associated with it increases based on the amount of Luck the attacker has greater than that of its target.
The chance for a glancing blow increases and the damage mitigation associated with it increases based on the amount of Luck the defender has greater than that of its attacker.
Several new abilities react with mortal and glancing blows.
Added 5 new buffs/debuffs.
Enemies now have far fewer spells.
Slightly reduced the defense penalty incurred from provoking.
CASTLE:
You must now find Bynine in a Realm - he is no longer unlocked by default at the start of the game. After you find him, he'll move in to the castle forever.
Added 15 new upgrades that allow you to improve various facilities in the castle, including the blacksmith, enchanter, gem temple, and power spells.
Rewrote all the dialogue for NPCs in the castle. They all provide useful game hints now.
Decreased the granite cost of all castle upgrades.
CREATURES:
Rebalanced most abilities. Nothing was weakened or reworked, just some numerical increases.
Rebalanced several buffs and debuffs.
Hounds are now Death creatures (previously Nature).
Slimes are now Chaos creatures (previously Sorcery).
Smogs are now Chaos creatures (previously Sorcery).
Wyverns are now Sorcery creatures (previously Chaos).
DUTIES:
Completing a Duty no longer rewards resources or energy, but still grants items and experience. To compensate, Duties now also reward 1 Royalty Point.
ITEMS:
Added over 100 new crafting materials.
Added over 100 new Major Sigils.
Added 2 new artifact properties.
When you find an artifact, it now has a small chance to have a legendary property applied to it already.
Adjusted the drop rate of all items (too many Bronze Tickets were dropping, for example).
REALMS:
Traveling Merchants can now be found in Realms. They have the potential to sell almost any item in the game, but at a steep price.
These merchants are designed to give you better control over your luck when it comes to acquiring the items you want.
Added 8 new interactable objects to various Realms.
Added 5 new types of Duties.
Added 1 new shrine effect.
Enemies now have a 0% chance to spawn with artifacts at realm level 1.
SPELLS:
Spell mechanics have been revamped.
Goal: make spells more useful against normal creatures and less overpowered when used against Nether Creatures.
The effectiveness of most damaging and healing spells now scales with a new character stat called Spell Power.
Spell Power can be increased by leveling up your character or by investing Royalty Points into relevant perks.
Nether Creatures no longer have an innate 50% resistance to spells. Their higher health is more than enough to mitigate damaging spells now.
Your character's class no longer reduces the mana cost of spells in that class by 50%. Instead, spells that you cast from that class are now much more potent.
BUG/CRASH FIXES:
Fixed a rare crash that could occur when loading a save file.
Fixed several silent crashes that occured when traveling to a new Realm level.
Fixed a bug that prevented the final blacksmith forging upgrade from displaying in the upgrade menu.
Fixed an issue where Dye items were not saved properly.
Fixed a display issue when enchanting an artifact.
Fixed a bug that caused certain realm events to reset upon turning in an overworld quest.
Fixed a bug that prevented the resource bonus from certain shrine effects from working properly.
Fixed several bugs related to on-death abilities.
Fixed a bug with the "Grant Buff" artifact property that caused summoned minion-based buffs to not be applied properly.
Fixed a bug with the Confused debuff that caused certain abilities to activate at incorrect times.
Fixed a bug with the Burn debuff that prevented it from increasing in potency over time.
Fixed a bug with some spells that caused them to target the wrong creature.
Fixed a bug that allowed the player to sometimes gain rewards from sigils even if they failed to beat the sigil encounter.
Fixed a bug that sometimes allowed dead enemies to attack.

New in Siralim Demo 1.3.0 (Jan 5, 2015)

GENERAL:
IMPORTANT: Resource costs and gains no longer scale with your character level - they now always remain constant.
For example, it now always costs 1000 essence to create a gem.
This will make your current save files feel very overpowered since many of you now probably have nearly infinite resources.
If you want to bring your resources back down to a normal, balanced level, speak with Zack in the War Room.
Zack will only appear one time and only for save files that were created prior to this patch.
You can now buy lesser Nether Orbs from Bynine's shop starting at level 40.
These Nether Orbs have a much lower range of possible activations and maximum gems than Nether Orbs that are found naturally.
Added a new option that allows message boxes to be displayed at the top of the screen, rather than the bottom.
Disabled the hardware "back" button on Android devices while in a Daily Realm to prevent players from accidentally leaving.
"Diffuse" is now called "Extract", "Plasma" is now called "Energy", and "Particles" are now called "Cores". The former terms didn't fit in well with the game's medieval/fantasy setting.
The amount of Energy required to complete a Power Spell ritual now varies based on the amount of power you invest - the more power you invest, the more energy that is required.
Significantly decreased the time it takes to save the game and increased loading speed.
ABILITIES:
Blood Magic (Lich Priest): the creature can no longer kill itself with this ability.
ARENA:
Your dead creatures will now be resurrected with 1 health between fights.
ARTIFACTS:
There are now 20 different types of artifacts (up from the original 3) - Swords, Armor, Helmets, Boots, and many more.
Each artifact's base stats either provide a large bonus to one stat, or a smaller bonus to two stats.
By default, the Blacksmith can craft four types of artifacts for you.
You must complete new castle upgrades to increase the types of artifacts he can craft.
There are four additional upgrades in total.
Artifact names are no longer randomly generated - they're short and straightforward.
Artifacts now level up after you kill enough creatures with that artifact equipped.
Each level grants the artifact an additional stat slot and increases its primary stats.
This is the only way to gain stat slots. Level 1 artifacts always have only 1 stat slot, level 2 artifacts always have 2 stat slots, etc.
The maximum artifact level is 10, so all artifacts can have a maximum of 10 stat slots.
Even after a legendary crafting material is applied to an artifact, the artifact will no longer be "soulbound".
This means you can now enchant, disenchant, reforge, and salvage an artifact even after applying a legendary crafting material.
There is still a limit of one legendary material that can be applied per artifact.
Rebalanced all properties that grant buffs.
Powerful buffs are now granted by "Greater Inscription of X" materials and are now legendary.
Less-powerful buffs are now granted by "Inscription of X" materials and are now rare.
Artifacts that players created prior to this update will be converted as follows:
Weapons become Swords.
Charms become Necklaces.
Shields become Heavy Shields.
All artifacts start at level 1, but your stat slots will not be removed nor will any of your stats.
All artifact properties have had their values rebalanced.
BUFFS/DEBUFFS:
Berserk creatures can no longer kill themselves from the recoil damage.
ITEMS:
Loot distribution has been overhauled.
Goals: reduce clutter, make loot feel more useful and satisfying.
-You will now receive far fewer items than before, but you will also receive less junk.
Nether Orbs are now a little more common, but the best Nether Orbs are still extremely rare.
Added several new items to the loot table.
You can no longer find resources in chests or through other means of looting. You can now find satchels of resources but they're not as common.
Material distribution is no longer limited based on location (for example, some materials were previously only obtainable in the arena, from chests, from salvaging, etc).
You can now find additional Arena Invitations even if you already have one.
Added a new type of item: Pills. These ultra-rare consumable items permanently grant +1 to one of a creature's base stats.
Since creatures have +20% of all base stats for each level, pills allow your creatures to gain a large stat bonus over time.
These items are intended to be an alternate form of advancement for your creatures to allow you to press into higher Realm and Daily Realm levels.
Example: Using a Pill of Attack on your Iron Golem increases its base attack from 32 to 33.
These items have been added as streak rewards for Daily Realms, and are otherwise extremely rare items.
New Power Spell rewards have been added and the drop rates/quantities have been rebalanced.
Added 2 new consumable battle buff items.
Increased the maximum gem level from 9 to 10.
Ankh of Revival has been removed from the game.
REALMS:
The Duties that required you to collect artifacts have changed.
Instead of collecting artifacts, you must now find 5 artifact fragments. After collecting these fragments, you will earn a new artifact.
There are always 5 artifact fragments in the Realms that normally had them, but this is also the new criteria for these Duties.
Improved the reward for several overworld quests (such as finding Ianne's ingots, etc).
Duties that require the player to kill a Nether creature will now spawn a much less powerful creature if the player is below level 20.
Exiting the game while in a Daily Realm now breaks your clear streak.
USER INTERFACE:
The long-awaited overhaul of the user interface is finally here!
The font has been changed to give the game more of a retro feel, and the size of the text has been increased drastically.
Added a new window that appears whenever you acquire items. This window gives you a detailed description of the items and even allows you to use them immediately, rather than having to open your inventory and find them yourself.
Panels/windows have new graphics.
Quests are now displayed when the menu is closed.
The Character Sheet and Creature Sheets now display a graphical experience bar.
The Creature Sheets now show all of a creature's abilities, including those granted by artifacts.
All items now have their own new, unique icons. Spell scrolls now have different colors for each class. Gems have different colors/graphics for each enchantment.
The Action Queue in battle now only displays the five most relevant creatures and now includes each creatures' battle sprite.
Buffs that involve summoned minions now display the number of minions summoned next to the buff's name in battle.
The Transmutation menu now shows a description of the ability granted by a legendary crafting material.
Most interfaces now generally have a more organized layout with less unnecessary text and more important information.
Reorganized the options menu.
Greatly increased the size of the map.
Updated the cursor graphic.
BUG/CRASH FIXES:
Fixed a bug that caused the Dispel and Mass Dispel spells to freeze the game.
Fixed a crash that occured due to the Aftermath spell.
Fixed several bugs with the Blight debuff that caused creatures to die at improper times.
Fixed a bug with the buff/debugg catalog that allowed the player to talk to Katarina while it was open.
Fixed a bug that prevented equipped artifacts from showing up on the disenchantment list if the artifact had no empty stat slots.
Fixed a bug that prevented players from being able to select a Realm level that contained "0" as one of its digits (such as 10 or 105).
Fixed a bug that was introduced in the last patch that caused shrine effects and consumable items to grant 10x the intended amount of bonus stats.
Fixed a bug on Android/iOS that caused the game to thank the player for purchasing it after minimizing and then re-focusing the game.
Fixed a bug with certain battle events that caused them to be applied multiple times in a single battle.
Fixed several display issues where some items had the wrong names.
Fixed several cases that allowed on-death abilities such as Resurrection Code to activate multiple times at once.
Fixed a bug that allowed players to be able to diffuse particles from creatures that should only be obtainable from Power Spells and the Emblem Shop.
Fixed a bug that caused players to be able to walk quickly as if they have the Crown of Haste after purchasing the Pocket Dumpling.
Fixed an issue with the touch controls when casting spells on your own creatures that caused them to become unresponsive temporarily.
Fixed several instances where battle messages would tell you that a buff or debuff was applied but the name of it would be blank.
Fixed a bug that prevented artifacts from being spawned with several different types of properties.
Fixed a bug on Windows/Mac that caused the game window to resize improperly when toggling from fullscreen to windowed mode.
Fixed several crashes related to collecting loot - particularly Minor Sigils.
Corrected several materials that were added in the last patch - their names were inconsistent with previous materials and they were not the correct rarity.
Fixed a bug that caused single-target friendly spellcasting to sometimes ignore input.

New in Siralim Demo 1.2.0 (Nov 24, 2014)

GENERAL:
NEW FEATURE: Daily Realms. A new upgrade is now available at level 20 that allows the teleportation shrine to take you to a Daily Realm.
This online-only feature allows you to travel to a "Daily Realm" - an extremely large Realm with more enemies, treasure, and events than normal realms.
Several statistics are tracked and displayed for the player such as the number of players who cleared the realm, the number of players who died in the realm, etc.
All players will visit the same exact Daily Realm - they'll encounter the same floor layout, the same enemies, and the same treasure as each other.
Players will be rewarded for completing consecutive Daily Realms.
Added several new Accolades to the Character sheet that are related to Daily Realms.
To learn more about Daily Realms, speak with Licktorr in the War Room.
NEW FEATURE: Dye System. A new type of item called "Dye" can now be used to change your creatures' colors.
Dyes are consumable items, so they will disappear after you use them once.
There are over 100 different kinds of Dye in the game. Some basic colors can be purchased from Bynine.
Some Dye colors are only available during seasonal holidays, in-game events, contests, or in Daily Realms.
Dyes are meant to be special - unlike other items, these cannot be found regularly throughout the game.
NEW FEATURE: Secret Codes, a new online feature. You can now talk to Bynine and give him a 10-digit code in exchange for an item.
These codes will be distributed regularly to players as prizes for contests, special events, and things like that.
Check the Events forum often for a chance to win a Secret Code!
When you start a new game with Random Creature Mode enabled, your starting creature and secondary creature will now be randomized as well, based on your character's class.
Added 22 new artifact properties.
Added 5 new legendary crafting materials.
Added 19 new rare crafting materials.
Added 2 new consumable battle buff items.
Licktorr no longer gives out a free Pocket Dumpling. Instead, he provides info and statistics for Daily Realms. You can now buy Pocket Dumplings from Bynine.
"Mysterious Realms" are now simply referred to as "Realms".
The increased resource shrine effect now affects power in addition to the other resources.
Reduced the health shrine effect from 30% to 25%.
Reduced the luck shrine effect from 50% to 30%.
You can now press cancel (Q on keyboards, B on mobile devices) to permanently disable the introductory message that explains the game's controls when the game is first started.
Slightly increased character experience points gained in battle.
Greatly increased character and creature experience point bonuses granted from battling in higher realm levels.
Upon reaching character level 20 after a battle on mobile devices, a one-time notice will now appear asking the user to rate the game.
Online connectivity should now be much more reliable for people with slow or stalling connections.
ABILITIES:
Adaptation (Regal Golem) now also increases a certain stat by 20% based on the type of realm you're in. Also changed some of the buffs granted by this ability to make it more useful.

Black Hole Halo (Imperial Angel): chance reduced to 30%, now affects all friendly creatures.
Cataclysm (Magma Golem): no longer provides Molten Armor (Burn is much better now, so this ability needed to be toned down).

BATTLE:
NEW FEATURE: Battle Events. In battle, there is a small chance that certain random effects will happen. These effects are based on the realm you're fighting in.
For example, when a creature is killed in the Death realm, there is a chance that it will be reanimated as an undead creature to fight again.
There are at least three battle events for each realm. There are no events in the castle or arena.
You probably won't encounter these events very often - maybe one or two per realm. These are intended only to add flavor to battles and make them feel a little more dynamic.
Rebalanced enemy resource drop rates from winning battles. All four main resources should be more evenly distributed now.
CONDITIONS:
Conditions are no longer referred to as "Conditions" in-game. Instead, they are now broken down into two categories: "Buffs" and "Debuffs".
Buffs are conditions that affect the creature in a positive way. Debuffs are conditions that affect the creature in a negative way.
Many abilities and spells now interact only with Buffs or only with Debuffs.
Buffs and Debuffs are generally more simplistic than Conditions were. Most have only one core function and have straightforward names.
New buff: Arcane. This buff causes the creature to deal 25% more spell damage.
New buff: Barrier. This buff absorbs a certain amount of damage. The amount of damage is determined when the condition is first applied to the creature.
New buff: Cleave. This buff causes creatures to deal 35% of their damage to the creatures to the left and right of the target.
New buff: Grace. This buff increases the amount of healing received from all sources by 100%.
New buff: Magic. This buff causes the creature's master to regenerate 10% mana at the start of that creature's turn.
New buff: Rebirth. When a creature dies with this buff it is immediately brought back to life with 25% health and can strike again.
New buff: Thrust. This buff causes creatures to deal 50% of their damage to the creature above or below the target.
New buff: Timewarp. When this buff expires, it reverts the creature's health back to where it was when the buff was first applied.
Berserk has been reworked. It now causes the creature to have 100% additional attack, but take 30% of the damage it deals.
Burn has been reworked. It now deals a small amount of damage on the first tick, and the damage doubles each tick thereafter.
Disarmed creatures now lose most of the benefits of their artifact, rather than just attack/defense/luck.
Disease now deals 50% more damage.
Entangled has been renamed to "Snare". Creatures are now unable to act until they attack enough times to break free. It is now about 33% more difficult to break out of this debuff.
Fervor has been renamed to "Multistrike" and has been reworked. It now causes the creature to attack multiple times in a row for 50% less damage.
Frost Armor now reduces incoming damage by 20% and has a 30% chance to freeze attackers.
Infection now deals 50% more damage.
Molten Armor now reflects 25% of incoming damage back on the attacker and has a 50% chance to burn the attacker.
Poison has been reworked. Poison effects can now stack up to 10 times, and deals 3% of the affected creature's health as damage per stack each turn. When a creature that is already poisoned gets poisoned again, the poison gains additional stacks and the duration is refreshed.
Sea Snakes now always reduce the target's defense by 5% per snake, and each one has a 25% chance to Snare the target.
Baleful has been renamed to "Critical".
Dampen has been renamed to "Ward".
Gale has been renamed to "Dodge".
Holy Shell has been renamed to "Shell".
Immolate has been renamed to "Splash" and now deals 25% of the damage to surrounding creatures, up from 20%.
Leak Defense has been renamed to "Leak".
Rejuvenation has been renamed to "Mend".
Shock has been renamed to "Stagger".
Vampiric has been renamed to "Leech".
Wolf Pack has been renamed to "Dire Wolves".
Wormrot has been renamed to "Weak".
Fortune has been removed from the game.
Unholy Frenzy has been removed from the game.
Web has beem removed from the game.
Wisdom has been removed from the game.
CREATURES:
Rebalanced the stats of every creature in the game.
Creatures now all have the same stat growth rate (+20% per level).
Consumable buff items and shrine effects no longer apply to stats granted by artifacts.
Several creatures have been renamed for various reasons. Some names sounded awkward, others were too similar to each other, etc.
Renamed "Atrocious Pit Worm" to "Pit Worm Harbinger".
Renamed "Brine Slime" to "Mercurial Slime".
Renamed "Brownie Spikepounder" to "Brownie Trickster".
Renamed "Brownie Piledriver" to "Brownie Captain".

Greatly reduced the number of battle messages displayed for spells and abilities.
All references to buffs and debuffs are now placed in brackets and are colored green or red (respectively) in the game's text.
The Grail of Haste has a new inventory icon.

New in Siralim Demo 1.1.1 (Oct 25, 2014)

New in Siralim Demo 1.1.0 (Oct 24, 2014)

IT'S ALL HALLOWS EVE IN SIRALIM! From now until November 9, 2014 you can:
Visit the tavern and get drunk on one of several different pumpkin ales.
Take on a repeatable quest to create a legendary crafting material that grants a brand new ability. Speak to Zonte, a new Nether mage NPC in the War Room for more details.
Search through breakable objects for a rare crafting material that applies a brand new battle condition.
Seek out and do battle with the Pumking. You might even be able to summon him if you can kill him.
NEW FEATURE: Siralim can now connect to our server and retrieve online data to enable certain features:
Online features are optional and can be disabled or re-enabled at any time by going to the in-game Options menu.
Currently, the biggest feature that the online functionality adds to the game is access to in-game events, such as the current All Hallows Eve event, along with other smaller events in the future such as a double resource gain weekend.
At the title screen, the game will display a server message which allows us to communicate to you directly, such as to notify you about upcoming events, warn you about bugs, and more. Not that there are ever any bugs.
At the title screen, the game will check to see if you are playing the latest version of the game based on your operating system. If you are not, it will tell you the name of the latest version.
More online features will be added over time.
MAJOR SIGIL OVERHAUL: There is now a Major Sigil that corresponds to every creature in the game:
Each Major Sigil's item description contains a small bit of lore about the creature. If you conquer the sigil, this lore will be stored in Siralim's Library so you can read it at any time.
Major Sigils spawn a pre-determined set of enemies. These enemies are generally more difficult since each team contains creatures that are intended to synergize with each other.
When you conquer a Major Sigil you have a chance to obtain the leader's legendary crafting material. The further your realm level when you use the sigil, the higher the chance to obtain a material.
Major Sigils are now awarded in such a way that you are far more likely to receive one that you have not conquered before.
For balancing purposes, some abilities do not have a corresponding crafting material. If you find a Major Sigil that should award a non-existent material, it will award a random legendary material instead.
NETHER SYSTEM UPDATE:
The number of gems you can use to create a Nether Egg is no longer based off your character's level. Instead, each Nether Orb spawns with a set number of gems that can be used, ranging from 15 to 30.
This was done for balancing purposes, and to make the task of creating a Nether Creature a little less tedious at higher levels.
This new system also allows more flexibility and customization with regard to the gem enchantments you can use. If you want to make a Nether Creature with 30 Rubies and nothing else, that's completely possible now.
All the current Nether Orbs in your inventory will be randomly assigned a maximum number of gems when you load your save file.
Added a new NPC to the War Room named Stoyakoff, a knight wearing a blue tabard who will tell you about any Events that are currently in effect. He will not appear when there are not any events.
Increased the rate at which arena matches become more difficult, and increased the amount/quality of loot received for each victory.
The Pandemonium King is no longer guaranteed to drop one of its legendary crafting materials. The chance will increase based on the realm level you are in when you fight him. He will still drop a particle 100% of the time.
The Pandemonium King's battle sprite has been recolored to make it unique from that of the Mouth of Hell.
Added information to the library about defending and provoking in combat.
Major Sigil inventory icons are now more distinct from Minor Sigil icons.
Nether Orb inventory icons are now more distinct from Nether Egg icons.
Renamed "Cafard Banshee" to "Tortured Banshee".

New in Siralim Demo 1.0.11 (Jul 24, 2014)

New in Siralim Demo 1.0.10 (Jul 21, 2014)

GENERAL:
Added an option to zoom in/out. There are three different zoom levels to choose from.
The camera will now always be centered on your character, even if you are near the edge of a map. This prevents your character from getting hidden behind the touch controls.
Removed the option to select a resolution. You can now resize the game window to any size you want. This also means that the game will look good on absolutely any resolution or aspect ratio.
Removed the option to enable/disable surface drawing. This is now always disabled, which is the higher-performance option anyway.
The game now remembers its window size and will resize each time the game is started.
Added several checks to ensure that save files will not be lost in the event of a game crash.
Doubled the amount of resources gained from Satchel items.
Increased the drop rate of Nether Orbs and Arena Invitations.

USER INTERFACE:
The user interface will now always maintain a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is its natural ratio.
This ensures that the UI no longer stretches and looks ugly if your display aspect ratio is different from 16:9.
This also fixes an issue with the touchscreen controls that made them seem unresponsive on some devices.
The UI now centers itself within the game window, so you might notice some extra space on the sides of the window. This is intentional.
All text is now displayed with a new font. It should be much easier to read, even on devices with a small screen.
Bynine's shop now shows a description of the creature's ability when you select a particle.

The item menu will now close if you start a battle with an item, such as a sigil.
Fixed some ugly spacing issues in several menus.
BUG/CRASH FIXES:
Alteration spells now work properly.
Fixed a crash that occured when you tried to destroy a material.
Fixed a bug that caused spells to cost their full mana cost even if the player's class matched that of the spell.
Fixed a variety of player name-related display issues that were particularly common on mobile devices.
Your creatures' class is now displayed in the battle menu as originally intended.
Damage dealt by creatures from confusion can no longer be a negative value.

Fixed a bug that caused abilities that allow a creature to hit multiple targets to not work properly.
Hopefully fixed crashing issues for devices with low RAM (512MB or less).

Updated upgrade description text since a lot of it was outdated due to recent patches.
The demo version of Siralim has a "Purchase Siralim" option available at the top of the game menu. Selecting this option on the Windows version will launch the proper webpage to buy the game, or displays the app store for Mac/iOS/Android versions of the game.

New in Siralim Demo Beta 11 (Jun 12, 2014)

General:
You can now sacrifice a particle from the particle menu. This destroys the selected particle and substantially increases the chance of encountering the matching creature in the next realm you visit.
The Pandemonium King now has its own unique abilities that are not found on normal creatures, and now spawns with some of its Doom Fortress friends.
Increased the amount of resources gained from Bynine's satchel items by 500%.
Reduced the level required to construct the battle arena from level 50 to level 35.
Players who start the game with Castle Quests disabled no longer have a chance to receive Alteration scrolls in their starting pack of items - they're not very useful at the beginning of the game.
Hebron's Stronghold creature no longer has a passive ability to make these fights less awkward.
Added the following character sheet accolades: Artifacts Reforged, Materials Transmuted, Common Materials Used, Rare Materials Used, Legendary Materials Used.
Removed the following character sheet accolades: Artifacts Ventured, Artifacts Augmented.
Updated all Castle Quest text, NPC text, and library information to complement this patch.
Reduced the rate at which you gain additional maximum mana from every 2 levels to every 4 levels.
Decreased the cost of construction rituals at lower levels, and increased the cost of construction rituals steadily as the required level increases.
Increased the cost of summoning new creatures after you have summoned 6 creatures total.
Added a new option to the options menu that allows you to enable/disable surface drawing. This option is mostly used to handle performance issues with older Android devices.
The demo version of Siralim now ends at level 15 instead of level 12.
Continued to optimize the game "under the hood" for better performance.
Artifacts:
Added 28 new artifact properties. Some examples include All Defense, Increased Chest Loot, Chance to Gain Rejuvenation When Hit, and Chance to Inflict Bleed On Hit.
Removed the "Replace Ability With" property. All abilities are now granted in addition to the creature's primary ability rather than being replaced. This change is not retroactive.
Weapon artifacts now have Speed as a primary stat in addition to Attack, but the amount of Attack has been decreased.
As a side-effect of this change, weapon artifacts that you found prior to this patch might behave strangely.
Shield artifacts now have All Defense as a primary stat rather than a specific defense.
Reduced the maximum amount of Attack and Max Health that a stat slot can roll, and increased the average amount of defense that a single defense stat slot can roll.
Reduced the primary stat values of weapons (attack) and charms (health only).
Greatly increased the maximum value that certain properties can roll, such as Brimstone Bonus and Player Exp Bonus.
Resource Bonus Gain properties (such as Brimstone Bonus Gain) now also affect resources acquired from chests, sigils, and arena prizes.
Unique artifacts have been removed from the game. This change is not retroactive, so if you still have some in your inventory, you can keep them.
Anywhere that you could previously find unique artifacts will now yield legendary crafting materials instead.
Battle:
The "Link" condition is now ignored if only one creature on the battlefield has it.
Creatures' Luck stat can no longer fall below 1 in battle.
Blacksmith/Enchanter:
The crafting system has received a complete overhaul.
There are now over 250 different crafting materials that you can find throughout the world.
Materials can be taken to the enchanter. The enchanting process now requires these materials to add stats to an artifact.
Each material has one of three rarities: common, rare, or legendary.
Common materials grant your artifact basic stats like attack, luck, or maximum health, and can be found almost anywhere.
Rare materials grant your artifact more interesting stats like increased resource gains, a chance to inflict a status condition on the enemy, or to always have a permanent beneficial condition in battle. They are harder to find than common materials and some can only be found in certain parts of the world.
The same rare material cannot be applied to the same artifact more than once.
Legendary materials grant your artifact new abilities or powerful status conditions that are passed on to the creature that is holding the artifact. They are extremely rare and most can only be found in their own specific area of the game.
Only one legendary material can be applied to an artifact, and after it has been applied, the artifact can no longer be disenchanted, enchanted, salvaged, reforged, or tampered with in any way. These artifacts are now marked as "Soulbound".
Applying a legendary material requires a long ritual.
Some legendary materials grant abilities that cannot be found anywhere else in the game.
Salvaging now gives the player crafting materials instead of resources.
Blacksmith's "venturing" has been replaced with "reforging". Reforging allows you to randomly re-roll the values of your secondary stats. This allows you to fine-tune your artifacts without having to constantly disenchant and re-enchant them.
Enchanter's "augmenting" has been replaced with "transmuting". Transmuting allows you to convert your crafting materials into different materials.
Destructible objects now have a chance to drop materials in addition to resources.
Major Sigil bosses no longer drop a unique artifact. Instead, they have a chance to drop crafting materials, some of which cannot be found anywhere else.
Since Major Sigils are no longer guaranteed to drop an extremely powerful item, they now drop a little more loot than before.
All Castle Quests, library text, and realm events have been updated to reflect these changes.
Readjusted the resource costs of all crafting functions.
Due to these changes, you can no longer press Q (default) to undo an enchantment or craft.
Castle:
Added more decorations throughout the castle. Many of these decorations help to show what is in the adjacent room. For example, in front of the tavern are a few kegs of ale.
Certain areas of the castle are no longer visible until you complete the proper construction upgrade. Many decorations and NPCs are also hidden as well.
Darkened the hay tile to prevent your eyes from catching on fire in real life.
You can now walk behind objects that you previously couldn't, such as plants and armor racks.
Duties:
The "Gather Essence" Duty now requires more essence nodes to complete.
Increased the health of runaway creatures and removed their spells so that they always attack.
Mysterious Realms:
Reduced the chance of finding a spell scroll in the Sorcery biome by 50%.
When you interact with a tome, scroll, or pile of books in the Sorcery biome and it does not yield a spell scroll, they will become slightly transparent to make it easier to see if you've already inspected the object.
This effect also happens with nomad tents in the Grasslands biome.
Rituals:
All rituals now cost a certain amount of Power to conduct.
User Interface:
Added a new sub-menu to the Items menu which allows you to filter the type of items you wish to view.
When you receive loot, the list of loot now includes tags to show what kind of item the loot is and where it will be placed in your inventory.
When disenchanting and enchanting an artifact, the menu will now automatically toggle to the selected artifact even if its name changes.
When deleting or consuming an item in any relevant menu, the selection will persist or move to the nearest other selection rather than always going back to the first selection on the first page.
In battle, whenever you select an enemy target for attacking, diffusing, or casting a spell, the target's health status, conditions, and its diffusion status now appear.
Reduced the font size of artifact descriptions so that they better fit the interface.
Increased the size of the enchantment, disenchantment, and salvage menus to better fit artifacts with long names.
Shortened the descriptions of a few spells so that they better fit the interface.
The gem enchantment and orb activations menus now show the respective stat belonging to each enchantment type.
Reduced the delay before menu scrolling occurs from .5 seconds to .33 seconds.
Bugs/Crash Fixes:
Fixed a bug that was introduced in Beta v10 that prevented Hardcore Mode characters from being deleted on death.
Fixed a bug that caused artifacts to be renamed improperly when a new stat was added, changed, or removed.
Fixed a display bug that caused the creature stats sheet to not update properly when unequipping an artifact.
Fixed a bug that allowed some spells and abilities to afflict creatures with a Confused condition that never expired.
Fixed several artifact display bugs where some properties were displayed as a percentage rather than an integer value.
Fixed several dungeon spawning bugs that could cause objects to overlap.
Fixed several crashes that could occur in battle.
Creatures should no longer be able to spawn directly on top of Zenpang in the stable.
Fixed a typo with the "Burn It Down" ability.

New in Siralim Demo Beta 10 (May 31, 2014)

NEW FEATURES:
Added two new modes to choose from when starting a New Game:
Creature Perma-Death Mode
If your creatures die and you do not resurrect them by the end of battle, they're dead forever. You will also lose their artifact.
If you run out of creatures, Damaos will give you a new starting creature.
Creature Randomization Mode
Each time you finish a "More Creatures" construction ritual, the creatures that are unlocked will be selected at random. If this mode is disabled, they'll be selected in a pre-determined order as usual.
These modes can be combined with Hardcore Mode (character perma-death) as well.
To complement the new Creature Perma-Death mode, a new unique artifact has been added to Bynine's shop called Ankh of Reincarnation, which is available after level 5.
This artifact has no stats other than its base stats, and grants the equipped creature a new ability: Reincarnation.
When a creature with the Reincarnation ability dies, it is immediately brought back to life with full health, but the Ankh of Reincarnation is destroyed.
Players now receive additional resources and items at the start of the game in Hardcore Mode and Creature Perma-Death Mode.
GENERAL:
Significantly increased the strength of the Beginner's Charm artifact to make the start of the game a little more forgiving.
Significantly decreased the strength of all unique artifacts. This change is not retroactive.
Rationale: unique artifacts were FAR more powerful than intended, especially since they typically grant the equipped creature a new ability or powerful battle condition in addition to the massive stat boost. Most unique artifacts now DECREASE some stats in return for providing these other abilities.
Changed the second creature that Hebron gives you when Castle Quests are enabled based on your character's class. These same particles are now also given to the player at the start of the game if you play with Castle Quests disabled.
Pandemonium Tokens have been changed to be less frustrating. Several of the most devastating negative effects have been removed, while several other effects (both good and bad) have been added. Hopefully this item will be more fun and exciting to use now.
Major Sigils can no longer be used until level 25. In addition, the level of Major Sigil enemies can no longer fall below 25.
Adjusted the rarity of several types of items.
ARENA:
Nether Creatures are now allowed to enter the arena.
BATTLE:
Enemy creatures that have abilities which benefit from certain types of artifacts will now always spawn with the best type of artifact (weapon, shield, or charm) to complement these abilities.
Enemy creatures will now defend more intelligently.
CREATURES:
Rebalanced several creature abilities. Most of them were buffed. The goal of these changes is to ensure that every creature in the game is completely viable to use. Without spoiling too much information, below is a summary of some of these changes.
Creatures that can defend to summon minions in battle now also start each battle with a set of those minions already summoned.
Some of the Hound abilities have been re-shuffled and compacted. In addition, there is a new ability called Wolf Ability - Permanence. This prevents all summoned wolves from leaving the battlefield.
"Versatility" and "Epiphany" were merged into "Epiphany". "Versatility" now increases the creature's defenses by 1% for each point of mana spent in battle.
The chance of many abilities proccing in battle has been increased dramatically, some of which are now at a 100% chance.
Increased the damage or effectiveness of dozens of other abilities and granted secondary effects to many others.
BUG/CRASH FIXES:
Fixed a bug that was causing exhaustion to begin far sooner than intended.
Fixed a bug that allowed overworld enemies to sometimes pass through solid objects.
Fixed a bug that caused castle floor torches to create random solid blocks in your pathway.
Fixed a few bugs related to saving/loading games.
Fog-of-War should now properly remove all the fog around your character when you move.
Solid objects should never block passageways in Mysterious Realms anymore.

New in Siralim Demo Beta 9 (May 28, 2014)

New in Siralim Demo Beta 8 (May 27, 2014)

GENERAL:
Changed the way the Mouth of Hell creature is acquired, but the method won't be spoiled in these patch notes.
Gem Piles in the Nature biome are no longer guaranteed to drop a gem for each creature in your party.
Clarified the ability descriptions for many Diabolic Horde abilities.
Devils and Giants have new overworld sprites.
ARTIFACTS:
You can now select an option to "lock" an artifact in your inventory. This will prevent the artifact from showing up in the blacksmith's salvaging list. Note that this option does not prevent the artifact from being destroyed manually.
Retuned the stat bonuses of all unique artifacts. This change is not retroactive.
CREATURES:
Significantly reduced the emerald (attack) values of enemy Nether Creatures and bosses.
Increased the effects of the "Treasure Hunter" ability by 50%.
The "Inception" ability's activation chance has been reduced from 35% to 20%.
The "Soul to Keep" ability now only works on the first time an enemy has died.
USER INTERFACE:
Whenever you access a vendor or facility that involves a resource-based transaction (such as salvaging, enchanting, or summoning a creature), a resource bar will appear at the bottom of the screen to indicate how much of each resource you have.
Added a confirmation menu for releasing creatures at the stable.
MYSTERIOUS REALMS:
Completely revamped dungeon generation.
Dungeons are now more than just a set of corridors and quadrilateral rooms - they all have their own distinct, unique room and corridor shapes.
Objects can now spawn alongside walls.
Some objects are more likely to spawn next to other matching objects. For example, twigs/logs are more likely to spawn next to trees.
Treasure chests are now less likely to spawn in open areas and more likely to spawn in "out-of-sight" areas like at dead-end corridors.
The Sorcery biome has two new decorations: a barrel and a potion shelf.
The Death biome has a new decoration: a pile of skulls.
You can now walk behind volcanoes in the Chaos biome.
Reduced fog of war visibility from 6 blocks to 4 blocks.
Drastically reduced the time it takes to generate a new dungeon.
Increased the rate at which enemies grow more powerful as you descend deeper into a dungeon.
Enemies will now only chase you if they can see you. If you go out of their line of sight, they will stop chasing you.
Some objects hide you from your enemies' view better than others.
Enemies will now spawn much further away from each other.
Duty NPCs will now spawn much further away from each other.
Quest NPCs now have a tendency to spawn closer to your character.
Increased the chance of a gem box being "lucky".
SPELLS/SPELLBOOK:
Adjusted the mana and power balance costs of most spells. In general, damaging spells now cost more mana/pb and non-damaging spells cost less mana/pb.
The "Night Sword" spell's damage and mana regeneration have been changed from 20% and 15% to 10% and 30% respectively.
The "Shellbust" spell now reduces the target's highest defense by 40% (up from 25%) and deals 150% (down from 250%) of this reduction as damage.
The "Doom Bolt" spell is now only obtainable through Power Spells.
Reduced the average number of charges found on all spell scrolls.
Quills are now slightly less common.
Reduced the charges granted by quills from 1/3/5 to 1/2/3.
BUG FIXES/CRASHES:
Duties involving runaway creatures will now properly display an update message each time a creature is subdued.
Fixed a display bug with Duties when you enter the arena.
Fixed a crash that would sometimes occur when the enemy cast the Fireball spell.
Fixed a few bugs that made it possible to enter the arena even when the proper conditions were not met.
Fixed a bug with Pandemonium King artifacts that caused part of their name to be cut off. This change is not retroactive.
Fixed a bug and display ambiguity with the Plasma Bonus Gain artifact property.
Fixed a bug that caused "Cursed Chest" Duties to count toward arena wins/losses on the character accolades sheet.
Fixed several bugs related to the "Resurrection Code" ability.
Fixed several menu-related crashes.
