Content Direction Poll - Upcoming Threat Groups

If you need a refresher on some details about what this poll is about, look at the previous post. Here is the poll itself. I've decided to limit the vote to only a SINGLE selection, so pick the one you want MOST.

Hello! Let's talk about some stuff!

I've got a few different things to talk about in this post, and while it mostly pertains to supporters, I'm making it public because there may be at least some information relevant to non-money-paying fans. We'll start there and move progressively toward more supporter stuff.

Although speaking of which, please do consider supporting the game, etc. etc.

First, let's talk about the previous content poll

Some people have expressed some curiosity about what the resu...

Update Alpha 8.3: Tutorial Research Notes

I feel like I wrote a WHOOOOOOOLE lot of text for this update and yet it's still hard to call it a content update. Obviously, there is still new content in here, but the big thing is really the thing in the screenshot.

In general, I've been getting people asking for the ability to review information from the tutorial without having to restart their run since  even before the first public version of the game was released. So here it is. Check the link for the full changelog. Enjoy!<...

Retrospective look at 8.2 and some future planning

Coming off the back of yesterday's update, I felt it might be productive to put down some of my thoughts on how things have been going. After thinking about it, it also provides a decent segue into where things are heading in the close future, so let's go ahead and talk about that.

So basically, content has always been a bit of a problem. By its very nature, the game's design allows for endless replayability but individual replays/runs of the game aren't necessarily distinct without hav...

Update Alpha 8.2: Some Content and Changes

Hi there.

I have an update for you today. As it doesn't have anything terribly game changing, it is not counted as a major version change. However, it still has a decent amount of changes and content that people should be interested in. See the changelog for details.

For some reason Patreon is not reading the link as a link so I had to make this a text post instead of a link post, so that's cool. Here it is anyway:

Devlog: Designing Dungeon Difficulty

Warning: This devlog contains a good chunk of math done by someone who has been out of college for 6+ years who was not particularly good or bad at math back then. If you like math, it may end up being dumb. If you don't like math, there's probably still something interesting to be found at least, or maybe you'll hate the math too much to deal. I don't know your life.

So it turns out there are a lot of numbers in this game! I suppose that's true for most video games that aren't platform...

Update Alpha 8.1: Bugfixes and some UI

Hi.

With the holiday and all of the bug fixing I felt was definitely needed, I didn't quite as far along into content making as I wanted over the last week. I do have a number of new threats/interactions in the pipeline, but they weren't COMPLETELY done, so they're left out of this release. Look forward to that soonish, as hopefully most of the BIG bugs that bother me enough to be distracting are ironed out now.

There are, however, 5 new skills slipped in here, along with a good a...

Update Alpha 8: Skills & Curses

Hello, here is another new version. This one introduces a lot of new mechanics tied in with Skills and Curses. See the changelog in the link itself for a full list of changes. 

As a reminder, the next update cycle is going to focus on adding more written content. There is a poll up for supporters to vote on what kinds of content to focus on.

Enjoy!

Content Direction Poll

Hi there! As we're closing in on the release for version Alpha 8, I was looking forward at what I would like to get done during the next update cycle. While there are still more systems that I want to put in place for the game, the limited content is still an issue that I'm very much aware of. With that in mind, I'm currently thinking that I want to spend the next update cycle (month) focusing on content, and it seemed like a good idea to ask about what people might want.

Also I know th...

Preview/Image Dump

Hey there, I've got a collection of images here that will be working their way into the game sooner or later. I thought I would share them ahead of time to supporters. Let me know if this is a kind of thing you'd like to see more of on this page. I suppose this could count as spoilers, but I don't think there's anything INCREDIBLY surprising here.

Also let me know if there are any in particular that you really like/dislike, either due to the quality or just the idea of the scene that t...

Update Alpha 7.1: Bugfix version

Not much new content in it, but I've uploaded a new version, Alpha 7.1. It focuses on fixing bugs that were reported with the last release.

Update Alpha 7: Desires Update

This update focuses on the camp and desires systems. See the changelog in the link itself for a full list of changes. Enjoy!
