Demo update: stacks, a charm tab, WASD movement and smoother walking

Leifyy

Thank you to everyone who sent a Raven from the pause menu! Every message reaches me, and this update comes straight from your feedback.

Items

  • Stacks: potions, portal scrolls, keys, gems and runes now stack up to 20 in one cell. The count shows in the corner. Shift + click takes one off a stack, and the belt refills from your stacks.
  • Charm tab: the inventory has a new Charms tab. Charms work while they are there, so they no longer eat your bag space. Charms you already carry move there by themselves.
  • Unique items are now ember orange, so you can tell them from rares at a glance. Inscribed items are pale gold.

Movement

  • WASD movement is a new option in Settings. When you turn it on, the skill key on W moves to F. Click-to-move still works as before.
  • Smoother walking: rocks, trees, fences and other objects now block only the space they really fill. Your hero no longer snags on invisible corners or runs in place next to an object.

Other changes

  • Waypoints have their own mark on the minimap: a teal ring.
  • The demo level cap is now 15, so you can try the fourth row of skills. The game tells you when you reach the cap.

Note: a multiplayer game needs the same version on every computer. Update before you play with friends.

Keep the ravens coming. Cinderwake comes to Early Access in May 2027, and a wishlist helps a lot!
