Hi guys, i didn't buy this game before cause there was no online multiplayer.
Now i see there is online multiplayer on the store page. Does it work well?
Thanks! And have fun!

@ZAGIETO:

This game is now officially in action.

1. There is mouse and keyboard support.
2. There is online multiplayer.

Full disclosure, in response to the above thread: please read about the control scheme below and consider it before purchasing.

In order to make it so multiple people could play online on a single PC, we couldn't make the camera static for mouse and keyboard. I still attempted the traditional RTS right-click-to-move/left-click-to-cast that Warlock players would be familiar with and it was, as I expected, pretty terrible.

THE SOLUTION:
1. The mouse behaves like a joystick, much like many first person shooters.
2. Your wizard will automatically walk in the direction you are aiming unless you hold spacebar.
3. QWERSDF are mapped to spells and will cast on-press in the direction you are pointing.
4. Holding left-click while casting will curve your spells left and holding right-click will curve them ri... Read more

No worries Rinku! And thank you Yedei! We have big plans for this game :D

Hola Yedei,

Estamos trabajando en el modo multijugador en línea y realmente esperaba tenerlo estable a tiempo para la venta de Steam en verano para poder usar la venta para aumentar la base de jugadores. Una vez que el multijugador en línea esté en beta abierta, lo anunciaremos aquí y luego pondremos el juego en venta. Si quiere ahorrar unos dólares, debe esperar eso. ¡Espero que pronto!

Además, perdón por la mala traducción. Nuestro moderador español no estaba disponible :(

Pues lo dicho en el titulo, estaba esperando a las rebajas de verano por si bajaba aunque fuera 2€ y no ha sido el caso... Entiendo que sea un juego en early acces y su forma de vender sea hacerlo mas caro cuando salga para que lo compres ahora, pero rebajar el juego aunque sea moderadamente siempre ayuda a vender. ¿Por qué no lo haceís?

Also please note that mouse and keyboard support is only available for online multiplayer. You can access the online multiplayer steam branch by following the instructions in our discord: https://discord.gg/vmxrVKH

Played this at Pax East after hearing about it on a Panel and fell in love with it. Having trouble tinkering around though - I guess I'm a little slow but I wasn't aware an external controller is required. Any ETA on keyboard controls becoming available? What controllers work besides steam controller? (Not sure which one was used at Pax East). Thanks!

Hi Dat_Aim,

Thanks for reporting this issue. Are you using 64-bit Windows 10?
Is your DS4 wired or connected over bluetooth?

I've definitely used DS4s and Xbox One controllers at the same time with XInput disabled so I'm not sure I'll be able to reproduce this issue, but I will try.

Please let me know if you find anything else that will help reproduce the issue.

Thanks!

There seems to be a problem with raw input in the game. (Rewired's fault?)
I'm trying to connect 5+ controllers.
While all controllers I have work fine with xinput, after switching to raw input they cease to function (dual shock 4, Logitech f710 and a couple of direct input ones). Only xbox one controllers keep on working.

Anyone ran into the same issue?
Any work arounds?

We're actually about to do some beta testing in a few minutes.
Hop on the discord! https://discord.gg/Y2ch2YW

any new froms devs?

Hey night!

Thanks for the suggestions. I have some responses for you:

- The challenge of aiming an analog stick quickly plus the cast time feels too punishing. With the quick running around, twitch aiming with a stick is enough of a skill to work on imo. Only the ult should have a cast time.
I strongly disagree with this. The design of MageQuit is based entirely on anticipation. Eliminating wind up times on most spells would reduce MageQuit to a shallow twitchy action game. Trust me on this one. My first attempt to make this game had no cast times and it felt mindless.

- This seems like a no-brainer to me but this game could be split into 2 modes. The damaged based killing, and a smash like knocking people off/out. Admittedly I don't know exactly how smash works, but many of these ablities already promote just knocking people away without bothering to use focused attacks, and then other skills that allow a quick recovery back to land.

Hello, I talked to you for a while Friday night then never played it until Sat and we never went back into PAX today (this year feels a bit anti-climactic).
But, I played with 3 people and took some notes to share...

- the lava comes in pretty fast. With only 3 people we felt cramped too soon

- lava is... overused? another/more themes would be nice
