4 days to go. We have spent Monday and today balancing content. More content will be added but not on the scale of Glacius or Silvercoast. Expect frequent updates once the game launches. The frequency of these updates will be every 2 to 3 days.

3 days to go. We have spent today creating this wonderful trailer of several (but not all) of the environments that Ambervale will have on release. Please be sure to give it a like.

1 day to go. My goodness things are getting tense. We have updated the tutorial so it's shiny and new. The tutorial still takes place on Paradise Island but now a brand new "Paradise Lodge" has been created to help players to their feet.

Oh my. The game is now live. You could just sit on your chair and eat a burrito. You could also come on and check Ambervale. Either way be safe.

Feedback:

No, I'm not being paid for this epic and 100% honest review of this game.

At first the chickens (cocks actually) took too long to kill, but after that I got my pass and entered the REAL game, met some awesome people and even made out with a chick in a city who asked me to help her find her mothers necklace (to which i accepted the quest but blew her off, not having sloppy seconds(even if they are my own!))

After a while I got lost and decided to speed hack through the empty woods (server kept dying and I was like 5 maps away) . I turned it off before engaging in combat and didn't exactly hide it from the staff. I even gave chase to some hot ass called kenzie (ikr, hot hot). So anyway I found myself in a bunch of Shroom's (baring in mind the role playing I engaged in was out of this WORLD) and decided to speed hack whilst running around. (as 99% of you know you gain no actual benefit like attack speed etc. It actually messing up with the CD of spells so you don't know when you can lauch that SOAB into another world with a fireball. So it actually a even playing field, No PVP or anything and then hotty kenzie came to spy on me, I just kept doing my thang, got my stacks on deck like I'm saving up. She then hollas her bf/husband/wife/brother/sister/auntie/uncle/great auntie/great uncle/grandpa/grandma/great grandma/great grandpa that I'm speeding and that he'd seen it (with his jam jar glasses on) on her screen and he then took it upon himself to threaten me with violence and it was my last warning. I said I'm not being followed around like some cheese pizza loving pedophile might as well ban me now. He proceeds to remove me from the game and then tell everyone that I had a small Weiner.

Stars?

My Review

Game Name: Ambervale 2D ORPG
Version: Beta 1.01

NOTE! These ratings are based off of the Beta that was released the date of this comment. Ratings may change in the future.

Controls: 9.5/10*
*WASD movement a bonus, space to collect and ctrl to interact.
Recommend: Mouse interaction instead of ctrl.

Sounds/Music: 8/10**
**Simple background music. Added touch when near water, water sounds play.

Sprite/Tileset Graphics: 5/10***
***No custom graphics. Basic sprites and tileset graphics.

Mapping: 7/10****
****Decent maps, found a few black squares here and there in some maps. (Reporting as I find them in-game)

Challenging: 10/10*****
*****Takes a good amount of work to level up, farm gold for items, and defeat monsters. Monsters and items scale well with level.

Overall Rating: 7.9/10

Would you recommend this game to a friend: Yes!

My experience playing:
I created my character with ease, (Name: Riften) GUI looks very clean and simple and easy to manage. At first there was some problems with movement and crashes but those were fixed quickly. Tutorial was simple and easy to follow. Community in the game was amazing and hilarious! Very supportive for fixing problems quickly and efficiently. I'm currently level 8, with a couple hours put into the game. Quests were simple and straight to the point. and overall game play was good. Can't wait for new updates and releases in the future!

Regards,
Riften

LMFAO!
That has to be the best game review I have ever read. Anyways, I will get around to playing this game and let you know what I think. Don't worry, I won't speed hack.

Update - 05/07/15

What we noticed increasingly over the weekend was the huge amount of game breaking glitches. Mainly lag and crashes. As a result we shall be closed until Friday 10th. Please understand that this is what's best for Ambervale in the long term.

Update - 07/07/15

I'd like to thank all those who have given me and the team support over the last couple of days. Believe me shutting off the server until Friday is not what we had in mind let alone wanted. Now as my mission is to be as open and honest with everyone here I shall list the bugs and gripes that caused the server to shut down temporarily.
* Server issues causing crashes and loss of player data.
* Influx of cheating due to anti-cheat measures not being put in place.
* Spell scrolls were not functional and as such new spells (e.g teleports) could not be added.
*Stackable items could not be withdrawn from the bank.
* Random and frequent client crashes.

We will hopefully have these Fixed by friday and I shall keep everyone posted on these bugs. Below is the new content that is being added while the bugs are being fixed.
