Changes

What has changed here

Every update to this site, newest first. The number beside each entry is the one shown at the foot of every page, so you can always tell which telling you are reading.

  1. Feature v12

    The Whole Workshop Opens

    The site now shows the work behind the game: all 20 videos on the Devlog, the four areas with their before-and-after pictures, a gallery of 76 images, the day-by-day dev notes, the game's own changelog, the design documents and the area PDFs to download. The Roadmap says where the build stands, and the Archer is now the Huntress.

  2. Feature v11

    Every Picture, Every Sound

    Two new pages under the Roadmap report on the art and sound plans: every piece of art and every sound the game needs, what AI will make, what a person will make, and in what order.

  3. Feature v10

    The Channel Is Named

    Search engines are now told that the YouTube channel is the game's own official channel, so the site and its devlog are known to belong together.

  4. Fix v9

    A Sharper Ember

    The site wears its new ember icon in every browser tab, and the site is now verified with Google Search Console so its pages can be watched over in search.

  5. Feature v8

    The Loot Falls

    Devlog #2 is out and plays on the Devlog page: real stats, one damage formula and Diablo-style loot beams. The next two episodes keep their titles secret until they premiere.

  6. Feature v7

    The First Fire Is Lit

    The devlog is on air. Devlog #1 can be watched on the Devlog page, the next three episodes show when they premiere, and the YouTube channel is linked from the Devlog, the Roadmap, the home page and the footer.

  7. Feature v6

    Every Step of the Road

    The Roadmap now shows every step of the build, not just its five phases: twenty-seven of them, from an empty machine to a shipped first act, each phase still ending at its gate.

  8. Fix v5

    A Map for the Seekers

    Search engines can now find every page of the site through a sitemap, and each page names its one true address, so no page is counted twice.

  9. Feature v4

    The Forge Is Filmed

    A new Devlog page follows the making of the game on video. Every episode sets a free AI tool against a paid one on the same task. The first season is listed there now, and the episodes will appear as they are released.

  10. Fix v3

    The Road Is Walked Again

    The site now arrives from its new home. Nothing on these pages has changed; this telling exists to prove the road from the forge to the gate still runs.

  11. Feature v2

    A Chronicle Is Kept

    Every change to these pages is now written down. The chronicle lives under Home, newest first, and the foot of every page carries the number of the telling it belongs to.

  12. Feature v1

    The Gates Open

    Embers of Olympus opens its doors: the shape of the game, the three who walk it, the road ahead, and the books that carry the world. Built with AI wherever a machine could do the work, with a human deciding what mattered.
