Quality of life improvements

Early Access

Brighter Shores is currently in 'early access'. This means a few core features aren't ready yet, and there are probably still some bugs!

Please send any bug reports to [email protected]

There are some very important features we want to finish ASAP, and before we consider the game to no longer be in 'early access'. These include:
• Player vs player combat (PvP).
• Player to player trading.
• Combat improvements, including special attacks on epic weapons to make the different factions more distinct.
• Episode 5 - Stonemaw Hill.
✓ Leaderboards.
• Additional (higher level) quests.
• Party system.

There will NOT be a save reset at the end of early access.
