🟢 Big update: the server is now open 24/7, so you can play any time, no playtest windows anymore.

Everyone starts fresh: all characters were reset. Since the last playtest:

- all the art is now made for the game (no more LPC placeholders)

- a smoother first hour: your first skill from the start, gear from quests equips itself, the tracker shows your next quest

- camps are easier to handle solo, and you get up close to where you died

The questions above still stand, especially: was there a moment you wanted to quit? Where?

🟢 Playtest #2 is live until 23:00 CET (22:00 UTC)! Play in the browser: https://nolvik.itch.io/world-of-solmara

I'm in game as Dev Nolvik, come say hi.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by on Friday! I wrote a short devlog about what I learned: https://nolvik.itch.io/world-of-solmara/devlog

Next playtest: Monday 26 October, 19:00-23:00 CET (18:00-22:00 UTC), four hours this time. Feedback on the questions above is still very welcome!

The server is now closed. Thank you so much to everyone who joined the first playtest tonight!

Your feedback really helps, so if you played, please share your thoughts here: what was fun, what was confusing, any bugs you ran into.

There will be more playtests soon. Dates will be announced here on the itch page and on Discord: https://discord.gg/UAxv3wzfCd

30 minutes left! The server closes at 22:00 CEST (20:00 UTC).

No download, no sign-up: pick a name and a class and jump in. You'll find me in game as Dev Nolvik, say hi in the chat! Any bugs or feedback, drop them here in the thread. Thanks!

UPDATE: The server is now open 24/7, no more playtest windows! Everyone started fresh with a new look and a smoother first hour.

Hi! I'm making World of Solmara, a free online pixel RPG you play in the browser: one shared world, three classes (Knight, Mage, Hunter), story quests, parties and dungeons that are generated each run.

Project page: https://nolvik.itch.io/world-of-solmara

The server is open 24/7.

It's a very early version, so I'm mostly looking for feedback on these:

1. The first 10–30 minutes: is it clear what to do and where to go? Did you get lost anywhere?

2. Combat: how does your class feel (speed, hits, sounds)? Too easy, too hard, too slow?

3. Quests: are the goals and the route to them easy to follow?

4. Controls and interface: anything awkward or hard to read? (Keys can be changed in Esc → Key bindings.)

5. Connection: any lag, rubber-banding or other players/monsters jumping around?

Bug reports are very welcome too: what you did, what happened, and a screenshot if you can. You can leave them here, in the comments on the game page, or on Discord: https://discord.gg/UAxv3wzfCd

Thanks for playing!
