Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness Party Banter Update Available

The latest post-launch update for GrapeOcean Technologies’ isometric RPG Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness expands the game’s companion interactions and some of their quests, adds a staff of resurrection, introduces a bunch of new Steam achievements, and more.

Here are the patch notes:

Ho there, adventurers!

As we continue our post-launch push to improve on all that you’ve asked, we’ve delivered two recent updates that deliver key requests: additional party banter and achievements.

Alongside this, we’ve added the Staff of New Dawn (an item offering resurrection) which sees those who carry it no longer needing to visit temples if a party member dies. We’ve also finished and extended the Hamlin, Bjalla and Jade companion quests. Take a look at the full notes below.

  • Tons of mini-banters added
  • Finished/extended the Hamlin, Bjalla and Jade companion quests

  • Multiselect item highlights in shops now disappear properly when switching item category
  • Quest inventory is now shared across party members
  • Items can now be moved to subcontainers (e,g, bottomless bags) via usual inventory “lift & drop” operation (there is no need to open the container UI any longer)
  • Added tutorials for infusion, world greed, Gerdra encounter, and point-of-no-return in Alastor
  • There are now five HP indicator labels (uninjured, slightly injured, injured, badly injured, nearly dead)
  • Minor chain lightning no longer harms party members and allies
  • Changed house name from “Family Home” to “Wilgo’s House” for Estranged Sisters quest
  • Dozens of fixes in quests and dialogues
