Version 3.65 Released! - Posted on 15 Aug 2010 by Barrage
Ok guys, here is version 3.65. We wisely opted out of news posts for 3.6 and 3.6F.
3.65 has everything we intended for 3.6, and much more! Including several skills, new monsters, items, and player airships!
I will make a post later with more information about the updates, but for now just read the 3.65 change log, which has the details of all 3 versions.
For now, just check out the donation shop. We have released Tier 2 Wings, the Ring of Redemption (which can save your life), and more! Check it out!
Promotions and Deals - Posted on 22 Jul 2010 by Barrage
Special donation promotions and deals have now ended on RTG. They are about to end on Gaurdia Tactics, as well, so if you want em, better do so now!
Remember, you can always donate for credits which you can save or spend at any time! Look forward to the next RTG update, which will have a ton of new content and fun stuff to do (which is the focus of the update). Also, we are preparing a new GT update, so stay tuned!
Game Booster - Posted on 20 Jul 2010 by Barrage
Recently a lot of players have been trying Game Booster...apparently it works very well with RTG and other games. It works by closing non-essential processes and programs, allowing the game more priority and CPU usage.
Also, watch this:
Version 3.5 Released! - Posted on 13 Jul 2010 by Barrage
Alright guys, here is the news! I'm posting this a bit late...the update was released early this morning. I was simply tired at the time and was not up to making a post.
This version was released before we accomplished all the goals we set for it, but do to overwhelming demand and the desire to put some new monsters and changes into the game, we went ahead with the update.
However, due to this speedy release, we began work on version 3.6 virtually immediately. :) So look forward to another update soon.
Alright, on to the good stuff! In terms of Fixes, we put in some monsters that were "missing" from the World Editor...they were in game, but most staff were unable to place them for this reason. We also fixed the issues concerning Death Laser Swords (and the Left counterpart), so all should be working very well now. It's a good time to get one if you haven't already! We also redid some of the render code for wings, so they should look much more attractive in most cases, and also not cover up any actual armor details. Also, we removed the broken Vote 5 link, and consequently you now need only vote on 4 pages to receive the daily Event Ticket bonus!
As for Additions, you've probably already noticed the amazing new title page music. However, those who enjoyed the original song need not fear, as a new option in the Game Settings allows you to switch between the two in addition to turning it off and on. We've added all the normal things...spells, equipment, monsters, and also some new kinds of abilities and effects for monsters and items. We've also changed the way some magic bonuses are calculated and applied, which you'll surely enjoy. Definately look at the Change Log for full details.
Lastly for Changes, noteable things include increasing the duration of Mark 1 spells by FIVE TIMES! This will make them MUCH more useful, as they won't need to be refreshed often to gain their awesome benefits. We've also increased the maximum allowed spells, before this change people that had nearly every spell may have noticed new spells disappeared. Also, we reduced the duration of Challenge by 25%...this will still allow Challenge to be used as intended while cutting down on the negative side-effects. Magic staves and other items will now benefit from magical bonuses, such as those from equipment. Finally, nearly ALL "high-end" monsters have had their Defense reduced, which you'll notice increases your damage significantly against them. We simply had not intended for monsters to have that much Defense/Armor to begin with, and it had begun to completely destroy the legitimacy of some forms of attack, such as bows and arrows.
That's pretty much it for now...check the change log for all details, and also check out the donation shop! We have a new kind of Back Item, known as Battle Standards. These standards are similar to flags and are stapped on poles to the back. Those who are familiar with the W3 Blademaster and other samurai type characters may have knowledge of this... The main feature of Battle Standards at the moment is that by default they add ATTACK, rather than the DEFENSE that Wings provide.
So yes, donate if you can, and we'll see you in-game!
Gaurdia Gaming News - Posted on 06 Jul 2010 by Barrage
We got some awesome new stuff coming in this next RTG update, including new kinds of abilities and equipment.
Also, we are working on preparing a new Gaurdia: Tactics update and getting it back to popularity.
Aether Storm recoding is proceeding nicely, and I'd say it's a lot better than it was the first time around.
The "super" server computer is nearing readiness. We had been running into a lot of problems with the backing up of the original hard drive, but now things are running a lot more smoothly, if slow. We should have RTG back on this awesome computer in no time, which will be the spear head of our new anti-lag measures.
Stay tuned for more information, and remember to donate! The more donations we get, the more we can expand the games and company! Remember to check out our newest donation items, including the Hand of Fate (gloves with awesome defense, attack, and increased item drop rate) and the Death Laser Sword combo pack!
We are also accepting donations of computer hardware/software. We accept most anything, new or old, but in particular we are looking for harddrives (internal or external). These physical item donations will earn you great amounts of donation credits you can use for items in our donation shops!
If you'd like to make a physical item donation (for example, sending an old hard drive), just let us know and we'll give you an address to send it to.

Tournament Tomorrow! - Posted on 29 Jun 2010 by Barrage
Good news, guys!
We are going to have a scheduled tournament tomorrow (Wednesday), at 4pm CST! We are dedicating this Tournament to all the hard work we've been putting into the game, and also to our close personal friend Eminem, who just sold over 750k copies of his newest album, Recovery!
I know it's a bit short notice, but short-notice is better than no-notice! (and also better than no-tournament!) Spread the word, the more players that participate, the more fun we have. Also, the more participants, the better the rewards.
Donate if you can (especially the amazing new glove item Hand of Fate) and we'll see you at the tournament!
Incoming Updates - Posted on 22 Jun 2010 by Barrage
Just to enlighten you all, we have a series of MASSIVE updates coming all week.
We're talking monsters, quests, and events. I will pretty much be updating the game ALL week, as well as preparing the super computer to once again host the game. This will mean a much faster server in addition to all the new content coming.
So, prepare for greatness! Donate if you can, it will help us a lot in the coming weeks! Long live Gaurdia!
Version 3.4 Released! - Posted on 22 Jun 2010 by Barrage
Ok, here's an update.
It has lots of stuff, so read the change log. :P Also, two new donation items: Hand of Fate, and Death Laser Sword.
Hand of Fate is a glove item with great defense, attack, and increased drop rate. Death Laser Sword has the same stats as SoH8, but obviously looks different. Also, a Left Death Laser Sword is available as well.
