Test games are special games occasionally launched by admins to test updates, experimental features and maps.
As test games are run to test specific things, they may not progress in the normal way (for example, heroes may be spawned artificially or monsters may be given additional mana) so that we can more easily test new features. They may be buggy or unbalanced, and may need to be restarted multiple times. Quest, achievement and stats progress may or may not be saved as normal. In-game tutorials and other text may not be updated to reflect changes being tested.
Test games help us ensure new updates work properly and allow us to get player feedback on possible new features and maps. If test games are running, anyone is welcome to join through the main portal in the lobby. We might miss some comments in game chat, so it's helpful to post feedback in the Discord afterwards.
What are we testing?
Today's test games introduce a new minor hero, the Void Mage.
Void Mage
The Void Mage is a minor hero who is capable of summoning rifts in space.
When left clicking their item a rift is summoned which can be used to transport allies to useful positions such as across pits, or to the top of walls or other vantage points.
When right clicking a player monster target a gap opens at both the target and player's feet and swaps their positions which can displace weaker mobs into allies, or get the player out into the fray.
