Vikings: Sex and Blood 0.4.3 Update

Added 2024-05-26 17:08:03 +0000 UTC

Hello,

Today I am sharing an update for Vikings: Sex and Blood. This update is a "quality of life" and minor bug fixes update.

There is no new content, but I have finally finished enhancing the old renders for all the events in the game.

Full Changelog:

-over 300 old renders have been improved

added ability to click on a building on the minimap and move the camera view to it.
added building names on the minimap when they are hovered.
added the option to open the Option page on the map with the Escape key.
lowered Building Icons on the map so they are easier to see when you hover on them.
added a sleep mechanic ( no events for it for now ) meaning that from now on, at night time, to advance the time to morning you will need to go and sleep at the Storehouse
added more quests to the Quest Log. Now it should be easier to know what you need to do next. Also, added more details to the quest, making it easier to know what you need to do to complete that quest.
added Yrsa model to the map. There are no specific events with her, but some will be added in the next update.
did more optimisation work ( reducing texture sizes for Map characters, buildings, etc ), reducing mesh poly count on some of the Map characters and buildings. Hopefully, this should allow the game to work on less performant computers than before. As a side note, I tested the game on a Steam Deck console, and apart from some UI elements getting a bit deformed, the game works great on it.

As for a development update we have been working on the changelog above, but with those done, we will focus on adding new content and I am aiming for another Content Update to be released around 15th of June.

Until then, I wish you the best and I would like to say THANK YOU for your support!
