Realm Grinder Developers' Diary [May 14th 2024]

DivineGames · 2020-07-02 12:57:28

Update on the crash situation:

We should have fixed android versions by removing two faulty ads provider, resulting in a playable game and hopefully better ad service until they can update their routines to be compatible with new softwares. iOS crashes are very likely caused by the same faulty providers, but the version requires Apple Q/A procedure before it's delivered worldwide.

DivineGames · 2020-07-02 12:57:32

Hello Everyone!

Version 3.7.3.3 (v3.7.8 on the Apple Store) has just been released to iOS - it should solve the crash issues that have been reported lately. If the game still crashes after updating, make sure you save a backup export and reinstall the game to make it work again. If you were logged in to Kongregate, your save should also be automatically stored in the Cloud. You may also save a backup export by:
A. Loading the game on a different platform (Kongregate.com, Steam, Kartridge, android)
B. Launching the game while offline (i.e. airplane mode) on the iOS device

Moreover, a couple days ago we started the beta for the next Realm Grinder major update. Stay tuned for more info!

DivineGames · 2020-07-02 12:57:40

Hello Everyone!

The beta for Mercenary Challenges is still running - we are almost over with the tweaks and we should be able to ready it soon enough. Meanwhile, we remind you that the Blood War event, for the 5th Realm Grinder anniversary, will be starting May 17th. Cheers!

DivineGames · 2020-07-02 12:57:46

Happy 5th Birthday Realm Grinder!

Today, 5 years have passed since the launch of our game, and we will never be able to express how thankful and grateful we are to you all as a community, to Kongregate for hosting and leading us through the development process, to our family and friends, and to our dear beta testers who help us immensely with every patch. We know we do not always live up to the challenge that you all offer us every day, but we love our game and its community and we promise that we have been doing, and will be doing, our best to offer the best possible service to our players.

Once again, we wish you the best in this age of global hardship, and in your life in general. Thank you again for having been with us for such a long time!

DivineGames · 2020-07-02 12:57:51

Hello Everyone!

We are currently running a beta for the hotfixes and quality of life changes listed here: Research and Mercenary template importing will work better, game performance should improve, there will be less overflow issues, and many more of our own initiative. We are also working on Ascension 4 concept, which will be one of the largest update we have made so far. Tons of new upgrades, researches, artifacts, trophies and even new game mechanics will accompany you through Reincarnation 221 onwards - we are very excited about it and we're sure you will enjoy it too.

This update will also include preparations for the Goblin Invasion event, stay tuned for more info!

DivineGames · 2020-07-06 20:02:58

Hello Everyone!

As a follow-up to Kongregate internal changes, we will be moving our community hubs to the following main locations:
Our official discord channel - a lot of our players are already talking there, the discord community is active and thriving.
The Realm Grinder Steam forums - for additional guides and comments about the Steam and Kartridge-based desktop app.

Moreover, in view of the upcoming changes we have also been copying significant data from this forum to our personal site (divinegames.it) and we'll be opening our own Realm Grinder public forums very soon, to make the transition as smooth as possible. We are always doing our best to let you guys have the best possible experience when playing Realm Grinder, both in and outside the game. Thank you for your support!

P.S.: The Goblin Invasion Event will be starting on Jul 09th 2020, 12.01 PM UTC and will end on Jul 13th 2020, 18.59 PM UTC.

Cheers from the DivineGames team!

DivineGames · 2020-07-20 13:03:12

Hello Everyone!

We have been working to fix several issues introduced in the last patch, and add a Community button in the in-game Options menu to quickly access the community hubs for Realm Grinder, especially important since the Kongregate forums will be closed as of July 22nd. Divinegames forums will open very soon - all the important content has been copied over there, everything else will still be available on kong forums as read-only.

Meanwhile, the concept for Ascension 4 is almost ready, soon we'll start implementation and testing as well. As a global reminder, the Summer Festival Event will be starting on Aug 17th 2020, 12.01 PM UTC and will end on Aug 24th 2020, 18.59 PM UTC.

Cheers!

DivineGames · 2020-08-14 11:24:39

Hello Everyone!

Yesterday we released a technical patch for mobile only that should address the upcoming 64bit policy. You shouldn't notice any different gameplay-wise, but if there's anything that you wish to report please file a support ticket to support@divinegames.it

Regarding Ascension 4, the implementation of new content is almost done! Beta will start in a few days! Once again, we remind you that the Summer Festival will begin Aug 17th, make sure to chime in!

Cheers

DivineGames · 2020-08-22 11:45:12

Hello Everyone!

We are aware of an issue on some devices and OS versions that cause Realm Grinder to crash on start. We're trying to reproduce, identify and eventually fix the issue. It would be helpful if any of you who run into this problem would follow these steps: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mpm … 4TwCc/edit

Also please include your device model, OS version, and any error that you were able to notice (if any).

On the good side, beta for A4 is very very close to launch! Stay tuned for more info

DivineGames · 2020-08-26 18:29:21

Hello Everyone!

The beta for Ascension 4 has finally begun! The new changes should breathe some fresh air into the Realm Grinder meta and prepare for an exciting new endgame content - however, there's a lot to test, and we may need new testers to help us. For this reason, we have opened Beta applications HERE. Apply if you believe you can help!

Stay tuned for more info on the development process

DivineGames · 2020-09-07 08:55:59

The new A4 progression system is also coming along nicely! We hope you will enjoy the new Faction Legacies. Stay tuned for more info!

DivineGames · 2020-12-10 14:18:12

Hello Everyone!

The beta for Ascension 4 content is finally over, the new version has been delivered and is pending approval before being released worldwide! The amount of content changed and new possibilites in A4 is really, really huge, so much that it won't even fit in the changelog - however, we want to let you know that we took our time to do it right and make sure that every part of the game stays balanced and fun.

Also importantly, the Christmas Event will be starting on Dec 21st 2020, 1.01 PM UTC and will end on Jan 5th 2021, 7.59 PM UTC. A new feat will make its way into unlocking Snowball particles!

DivineGames · 2020-12-20 14:48:04

Hello everyone!

We are glad that so many of you are playing the new update! We want to let you know that we are aware of a few bugs currently in the live version, and have been working to fix them as soon as possible. The Share Benefits negative mana and a couple issues that could cause game crashes have already been fixed, and the new build delivered for approval. We'll release it live as soon as it is ready!

DivineGames · 2021-01-28 13:18:34

Hello everyone!

We are working on fixes and updates for the next Realm Grinder version - it's still in the concept stage, so it will be going to take a while, however we want to continue and expand the legacy progress system - stay tuned for more info!

On a side note, we are still unable to say whether Supernova or other web flash emulators will be able to support Realm Grinder in the future. We recommend moving on to other platforms such as Android or Apple mobile devices, Steam or Kartridge.

Those of you who want to recover their save from the Cloud may contact us at support@divinegames.it for assistance.

Those who have Kreds to spend on Kongregate web should contact the Kongregate staff.
