The first major update for Kandria is now live on all platforms! It includes the level editor, a modding system, some new sample levels, and bugfixes!
Level Editor
The level editor received a big overhaul and is now a lot more accessible. There's also official documentation now to help get you started and explain all the tools and shortcuts available. If you want to dig in, just update your game and navigate to Mod Manager > Create Mod, which should place you directly into the editor in a new world of your own!
Sharing Mods
You can play levels made by others and download them directly from within the game. To browse existing levels, simply go to Mod Manager > Discover. From there you can select and install mods. Once installed, you can play their world under the Worlds tab.
We've provided a number of sample levels for you to play and edit. Open them up and see how they work, maybe you'll get inspired to make your own!
Join in on our Discord community event! We'll raffle out 20 Steam keys for Kandria to anyone that uploads a new level. You can freely give the key out to a friend so they can play the level you made!
