Wicked Island [Build 21542839] (2023) (Eng) [Unreal Engine] [RawDarkness]

Build 21542839 Steam - 2026-01-26
Sorry for all the hotfixes, a lot more issues with this build than testing initially revealed.
Doing my best to fix all of the major stuff.
This one was new bugs introduced by attempting to fix old ones.
Defeat minigame no longer freezes. (altough it might mess up breast physics afterwards, need a kong term solution for that.)
Made item glitter effect only affect dropped items and made the effect less intense.

Build 21540237 Steam
Changed the sword and arrow trail VFX to not run on the gpu, as this causes AMD performance issues (and maybe some older Nvidia cards as well). This should hopefully fix the performance stutter on attack experienced on some systems.
Issue where player physics changed from pause menu.
Tweaked exp gain for servants to not create runaway scenarios on higher servant levels.
Issue where some enemies t-posed when getting staggered
Added some particle effect on items to make finding them easier.
Tweaked lootbag model and draw distance
Several tweaks to shadows to improve performance
Changed shortbow sale price
Tweaked some FSR settings to hopefully make it turn on properly.

Build 21536092 Steam
A few more critical issues with servants fixed, sorry for the inconvenience!
Fixed Nursing station not giving a servant after raising them
Fixed Morvayne trading not giving a servant on trade
Fixed Servants levelling super fast when spawned from cheat menu
Fixed cheat menu spawned servants not having traits
Removed localization dropdown in settings, as its not finished.

Build 21532685 Steam
Fixed old saves not getting exp
T-Posing in milking/nursing station
Some performance improvements and changes to FSR to hopefully make it work better (seems to not enable properly)
All previously summoned servants being set as summoned when converting (this should prevent old saves from getting duplicate servants).

Build 21530921 Steam
Minor hotifx to fix issue related to crafting recipes where one of the ingredients used 0 resources (like flour and in breeding station).
Also fixed some weight painting and getting bronze arrows from picking up fired stone arrows.

Build 21526429 Steam
Servant Overhaul, Apothecary & Better Steam Deck Support
The first update of the year is live! This patch focuses heavily on stability and deepening the core gameplay loops. The biggest change is a complete rewrite of the Servant System. I wasn't happy with the bugs and inconsistencies in the old code, so I tore it down and rebuilt it to be more robust.
Along with this technical overhaul, we have a new, high-stakes method for taming, a new crafting profession (The Apothecary), significant improvements to combat feel, and dedicated Steam Deck support.
Here are the highlights.
Feature Highlight: The Bonding Ritual
Taming is no longer just a transaction; it is a test of survival. To tame a creature, you must now use the appropriate item to initiate a Bonding Ritual.

The Risk: The ritual requires vulnerability. You must survive a duration without armor or weapons.
The Reward: If you survive the timer, the bond is consummated, and the servant is yours.
This turns taming into a tense gameplay challenge rather than just a resource sink.
New Crafting: The Apothecary Bench
We are expanding the economy with the Apothecary Bench. This new station allows for more specialized crafting and ties into the new accessory slots, giving you more control over your build.

Combat & Movement Flow
Combat should feel snappier. I’ve added double-jump animations, increased air control, and tweaked melee combos so you can move sooner after finishing an attack chain. Ranged combat has also been made deadlier—enemies will now aim vertically, so high ground is no longer total safety.

Steam Deck & Performance
FSR Implementation: We have replaced the generic DLSS fallback with AMD FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution).
Why this matters: For Steam Deck users (and anyone without an RTX card), this is a big improvement. You should see a significant boost in framerate and clearer visuals without draining your battery as fast.
Official Controller Layout: With the new hotbar slots and UI changes, the default controls might feel off.
We have a new, optimized controller layout specifically for this update. Big thanks to Ludranos for creating this setup!

Systems & Mechanics
Servant System Overhaul: Complete code rewrite of the servant backend. This should resolve persistent issues with leveling, summoning, and state management.
New Taming Mechanic: Added "The Bonding Ritual." Taming now requires surviving a timer while vulnerable (no armor/weapons) to earn a servant.
Apothecary Profession: Added the Apothecary Bench for crafting Pheromones required to initiate the taming ritual.
Crafting QoL: Crafting stations now pull materials from your Inventory, your Hotbar, and the Station’s container simultaneously.
Resource Gathering: Increased the physical size of branches and carrots to make foraging less tedious.
Combat & AI
Ranged AI: Archers and ranged enemies can now aim vertically (pitch) to hit players above or below them as well as have better aiming overall.
Boss Loot: Bosses will now only drop Lore Clues on the first defeat (subsequent kills drop standard loot).
Projectile Scaling: Enemy projectile damage now scales with character level. Player bow damage now scales with Bow stats + Player Level.
Melee Flow: Reduced the recovery time after the final hit of a melee combo, allowing for faster movement.
Customization & Gear
Accessories Expansion: Added 4 new Accessory Slots and multiple new accessory items.
Cosmetic Slots: Added 2 new Cosmetic Slots and 2 new cosmetic items.
Light Armor Buff: Light Armor now grants a passive Sprint Speed bonus.
New Weapons: Added 2 new Bows and a Legendary Bow (found in a new unique chest).
Guiding Light: This item has been moved to the Accessory slot.
Visuals & Immersion
Immersion Physics: Refactored breast and glute physics. They now react more accurately to different morph sliders and have a lower CPU cost.
Procedural Animation: Added character lean and tilt based on acceleration and rotation for more grounded movement.
Atmosphere: Added idle animations for slaves in some stations (e.g., anvil, tub, tannery) to make bases feel alive.
Low Health FX: Added a visual vignette and heartbeat audio when HP is critical.
Intimate Scenes: Scenes now visually hide armor rather than un-equipping it. No more re-equipping gear after a scene.
New Scene ending: Added some sound/visual effects when a scene ends.
Balance & Tweaks
Progression: Successful Evasions and Damage Absorption now grant Armor XP.
Pregnancy Changes: Increased "Bulk" cost while pregnant (stamina penalty). Switched the penalty from Armor Rating → Evasion.
Breeding: Breeding stations now produce Seed instead of babies directly. Adjusted the cost of raising offspring.
Survival: Hunger and Sleep degeneration rates have been slowed to better match the day/night cycle.
Economy: Reduced glass cost for Empty Bottles. Changed Steel Bar recipe (1 Iron Bar + 2 Brimstone) + lots of other minor balancing changes.
Inventory: Slightly increased slot count for Chests and Player Inventory. Expanded Hotbar to 8 slots.
Fixes
Tree Physics: Fixed the "Space Program" bug—cutting down trees should no longer launch the player (or the tree) out of the map.
Arrow Sticky: Enemy arrows now visually stick to the player mesh on impact.
Collision: Fixed capsule issues with Wasps and Bears to make combat consistent.
Mesh Fixes: Solved "Crotch Stretching" distortion on multiple armors.
Scene Scaling: Fixed scale mismatch in specific lesbian scenes so animations align better (still needs some work).
Weather: Fixed a bug where snow would never trigger in starting zones.
Base Building: Trees and Ores should no longer spawn inside player bases.
Loot Drop: Destroying a container now correctly drops its contents on the ground rather than deleting them.
Plus lots of stuff not covered here..

Build 21298459 Steam
Player base export update
Export bases between saves and share with others
In this update player built homes can be saved to json files that can be loaded by anyone to load in the same build in their own game.
It's available under the dev menu, the default key to access it is the num / key, it can be rebound under settings.
Simply stand in the middle of your base (anything withing a 250m radius of the player will be saved) and press the "save build preset" button.
Then on whatever game you want to load the save in, pres the "load build preset" and pick the preset you want to load. It will take a couple of seconds to load the pieces in.
The files containing the data are stored under %LocalAppData%\WickedIsland\Saved\BuildPresets
This update also has some other changes and several fixes.

Build 21230780 Steam - 2025-12-21
⚠ Save Compatibility Notice
Because this update completely revamps progression, weapons, armors, and food, older saves may lose some weapons or armor items. I’ve tried to mitigate this as much as possible, but some edge cases may still happen.
In addition, all old food items have been removed (they no longer exist) and are replaced by the new food system.

This update is a major progression overhaul focused on materials, crafting, armor, weapons, and food — with new stations, renamed gear tiers, and a cleaner sense of “what comes next.”
On top of that, there’s a ton of new content across the board: quests, building additions, custom paintings, new Archdemon animations, and… rumors spreading about portals and a strange flower appearing across the island.

Highlights
Complete progression revamp: Items and materials now follow a clearer 3-stage path: Bronze Age → Steel Age → Darksteel Age
Armor overhaul with meaningful Light vs Heavy tradeoffs (stamina vs protection/evasion/absorption)
Food system fully reworked with new ingredients, recipes, and balance changes
New crafting station: Tannery for refining leather / silk / dragonhide
Custom Paintings: import any PNG or GIF into the game as a buildable painting
New quests (Stranger + Sylvia)
New Archdemon animations
Mannequin buildable
Rumors: portals… and a mysterious flower with an irresistible scent…
Lots of other fixes and changes..

Enemy Attack Timing adjusted: longer windups to give you time to react
Armor Insulation Removed — now replaced by craftable heat/cold resistance potions

Tied the shadow method to the nanite switch, by default with nanite off, normal shadow maps will be used, with nanite turned on, virtual shadow maps will be used.
These changes should result in significant performance boosts on lower end systems (from 19 fps to around 30fps on my low end test laptop)
