Welcome to the first official Draekon development update.
A lot of the groundwork behind Draekon has now been completed, and the project is beginning to move from setup and infrastructure into actual player-facing systems and content.
WEBSITE & ACCOUNT SYSTEM
The new Draekon website is now live and powered by Laravel.
Players can now create an account directly through draekon.org, and those accounts are written directly to the Draekon game database using the same secure Argon2id password format used by the game server.
This means one Draekon account can be used across both the website and the game client.
The website currently includes:
• Account registration
• Website login
• Player account dashboard
• News and updates
• Hiscores foundation
• Voting page
• Store foundation
• Client download page
ADMINISTRATION PANEL
A new private administration panel is now online at admin.draekon.org.
The panel is powered by Filament and gives the development team a central location to manage the website and monitor Draekon.
Current administration features include:
• Registered player statistics
• New registration tracking
• Game database status
• Recent player registrations
• Player account viewing
• News post management
• Client download management
The player management system is currently read-only while we verify game-side data mappings before enabling sensitive actions such as rank changes, game mode changes, bans, mutes, and account recovery.
NEWS SYSTEM
The Draekon news system is now connected directly to the website database.
Updates created through the administration panel can now be published directly to the public Draekon website.
Each update will also have its own dedicated article page, allowing us to post larger development logs, patch notes, event announcements, maintenance notices, and future content previews.
COMING NEXT
Development will continue across both the website and the game server.
Some of the next major systems planned include:
• Full skill-based hiscores
• Boss kill-count rankings
• Live player-count integration
• Voting site callbacks and in-game rewards
• Secure store checkout and reward fulfillment
• Improved player management tools
• Game mode and account rank integration
• Server status monitoring
• Client launcher and download delivery
• Additional account security
On the game side, development will continue to focus on improving existing content, fixing incomplete systems, and expanding Draekon with custom progression, bosses, raids, items, and long-term goals.
THANK YOU
Draekon is still actively being developed, but the underlying systems needed to support a real live server are now coming together.
This is only the beginning.
Thank you to everyone following the project and testing the systems as they come online.
More updates soon.
