RS Gold developer Jagex's publishing division has picked up a promising indie release for their Jagex Partners label making Melvor Idle an independent no longer. The idler-style game, similar to games such as Clicker Heroes or Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms, was released on Steam last year . It carries its roots from Jagex's most popular game Runescape with pride.
Melvor Idle is a detailed multi-track idler that will attempt to recreate "the essential elements that comprise the RuneScape franchise in a manner that can be played at a leisurely pace," says the publisher. It's a very well-designed idle game with a variety of different things to make and improve, as well with a strong emphasis on no games that have prestige mechanics that need a restart.
Jagex is believed to have learned about the game's existence in the first quarter of 2020. A lot of the publisher's staff were enthusiastic about it following its officially Steam launch in the month of October the same year. As it is obvious that the developer is pleased to be working to the creators of one of their favorite games. "Being working in conjunction with Jagex in direct collaboration on the game has been an amazing dream come true," said Brendan Malcolm, the solo developer in charge of Melvor Idle Studio Games by Malcs.
Malcolm posted a lengthy Q&A with players on Reddit community, which made it clear that he'd retain complete creative control going forward, and that the game's single-purchase monetization model wouldn't be altered. Jagex claimed that they has "no intention" to make any changes to Melvor Idle. The agreement for publishing will have Jagex taking on the marketing, localisation, tech support, and QA Melvor Idle.
You can test Melvor Idle for free via its official website and purchase it on Steam. I've opened it during the process of writing this piece and am already proficient at chopping down trees. It's a great time be an Old School RuneScape player right now in the Shattered Relics league has launched! It's a brand new and challenging game mode that players can take on, using Ironman rules that stop players from trading and taking part in PvP.
Players in the Shattered Relics League must compete to make it through the various content available to them to earn valuable rewards. They will then be able to allow players to access both harder and harder content, and get to play the game again with a different perspective.
During the training, everything is secured. Players first unlock a limited set of skills they can apply, including defence, thievingand fishing and combat skills of their choice. Once they've mastered these skills, they can slowly progress through the beginning game by unlocking new skills as they progress.The Duel Arena was closed (and destroyed!) to begin the new year with some modifications made in November. The increasing number of scams and RMT spammers began to make an already-established feature require change with RS3 Gold. But those changes were intended to act as an initial step toward a full replacement. The replacement was designed to be more secure but yet still designed to let players take part in the battles (and the rewards) that come with good games.
