Wagic 0.3.1 Released

News/release from wololo

First of all, many thanks to Abrasax and J for their help, this new release wouldn’t be so full of new stuff without them. And thanks of course to the beta testers. Strangely enough, except a few card bugs here and there, most of the reports we got were “feature” requests (well, to some extent, some of them can be considered as bugs too…), so my guess is that this release should be quite stable.

So what do we have for you here ? Well, first of all, you’ll probably notice that the big jpegs are not in this release, only thumbnails. The game still handles the big pictures, of course, but you’ll have to find them yourself. The main reason for that is bandwidth, as this decision will allow us to put far more cards in the future, for a smaller zip file. It also allows us to put music and sfx in the package for a smaller total size. Oh yes, music is finally here, and a few sounds as well, so that Wagic looks (sounds ?) more like an actual video game now (the soundtrack is by Celestial Aeon Project). Overall, lots of new customizable contents have been added, and the card parser has been improved, which means more cards for you and less code for me.

Oh, I almost forgot, around 250 new cards (Wagic now officially supports around 700 cards, not counting the hundreds more available on the forum), new icons and a new logo.
