Tower of Time is an impressive RPG, one that's absolutely worth checking out has another rather good update showing how much the developer cares about giving players the best experience.
You can see some previous thoughts on it here.
Their big optimisation update has reduced loading time quite a lot, decreased the size of the game to download and it also improved performance in various areas quite a lot. They've also added in an option to limit the FPS, added an option to turn off anti-aliasing, added a missing cinematic and fixed some bugs.
I've tested it myself and the results are pretty clear. For me, running it on Ultra settings it's incredibly smooth now. Times where it would previously drop some frames, hardly changes at all now. It was already a good experience, now it's really damn solid. They're not quite finished with it though, they're planning a "NG++" mode, which will make it harder and skimp on the story while allowing you to play with all champions from the start. A mode to allow you to experiment and get in some more of the fantastic combat it has to offer.
Had a huge amount of fun with this one, sucked me in far more than I thought possible. The mix of dungeon exploration, with the interesting combat certainly gave it a spicy flavour.
Tower of Time is available from Humble Store (40% off), GOG and Steam (30% off). Currently, GOG does not have this latest build for Linux.

Quoting: EhvisI actually had to uninstall this game because it went into a reinstall loop on steam where it updating->verifying->updating->.... forever. Uninstalling and reinstalling it worked for a day and then it happened again. First (and last) time I had an issue like that with steam.I actually have that now and then, it seems to happen at random. Didn't happen for me on this one though.

When that occurred, did you have free space under 10 gb or something?

Well,if you had free space less than 10 gb that happens. At least that is what happened to me

I have 17 gb space available space and my Proton games are kept being added to update list for couple KB of updates every time I restart Steam client. Weird.

I've seen it too; don't remember which game for sure, but I could have sworn it was something based on Unity, not UE4.
I'll have to revisit this now that it's had its big update.

(bless him) told me that it was being made easier, and it is.^_^And I totally LOVE this game, with its very original and very unique combat system, its story, and that fact that an indie studio released a AAA game at a reasonable price. It's a lesson that other indie devs should heed, IMHO.
