Last Minute Warrior Splash! | Patreon Weekly #313
🕑 Added 2025-05-28 20:30:04 +0000 UTCHey Patrons, in this early weekly I’ve got some last minute Warrior splash improvements to share!
This weekly also includes an audio Q&A! You can find audio timestamps at the end of this weekly.
Warrior Splash Redone
In a previous weekly back in January I shared some work Aleks was doing on updating the various hero splashes. Those ended up making it into v3.0, except for the Warrior, who’s new splash was delayed.
Aleks had some free time in the last week though, and so now suddenly the Warrior’s new splash is ready to squeeze into v3.1!
Here’s the current splash for comparison:
and the new splash!
As you can see, this is the most changed of any of the splashes, which makes sense as the Warrior was the first splash Aleks originally did. The Warrior’s proportions and pose are much better, the background has been redone and brightened, and the armor design has been changed to be more rooted in nordic cultures and less ‘generic fantasy’. This splash is pretty final, though there will be some small tweaks to details or the pixellation before or after release.
Lastly, there’s a variant with a seal made out of gold instead of red wax, which is a bit more accurate for the cultures we’re basing the Warrior’s design on:
I plan to decide on the seal variants and get this new warrior splash into the beta ASAP, hopefully tomorrow.
