New art: heroes, gear, bosses and pets

The Ember Depths 0.25 redraws the cast: 24 hero bodies that wear their gear, 53 bosses, 26 pets in four stages and new effects. Switch back any time.

Version 0.25 brings in a new set of pixel art, drawn at a higher detail than the sprites you know. It is on for everyone from the first launch.

What is new

  • Heroes. 24 new hero bodies, so every race and build has its own figure.
  • Gear you can see. What you wear shows on your hero, layer by layer.
  • Creator looks. New looks to choose from in the hero creator.
  • Bosses. 53 bosses redrawn.
  • Pets. 26 pets, each in four growth stages, so a young pet looks different from a grown one.
  • Effects. New spell and hit effects to go with them.

Switching back to classic art

  • Open Settings → Graphics and turn on Classic hero art to put the old sprites back.
  • Turn it off again to return to the new art. Nothing about your heroes, gear or saves changes either way.
