Die in the Devlog vol.2

9:47am

Hello, long time no see!

We've missed you!

We've got quite a bit of news in the meantime!
And at the same time, we'll show you what we've been working on lately and what we're preparing for the final release.

Let's start with saying thank you for your support during the release of Origins!
We’re happy to see that many of you are still playing it (more than 2000 reviews with 95% positive, crazy!). We've received tons of useful feedback, which we've immediately started processing.

But Origins is just a part of our journey. And you'll see its new chapter very soon!

But let's go step by step...

New Systems

So, if you remember the previous versions of our game and the prologues, they were quite linear. Our cute frogs fought battle after battle, they had no time to rest, and their attempts to pass through the dungeon was a bit too similar between them.

Something that we wanted to add for a long time was a mechanic that shakes up the familiar rules of Die in the Dungeon - the travel map. Now you can choose your direction of movement and the events that await you throughout the dungeon.

(visuals are WIP)

At the same time, we wanted to find a different approach on the usual way maps work in other roguelikes.
A signature element of our design is dice and the ability to control randomness. We were inspired by traditional tabletop games and made dice the instrument used for moving along the map.

Thus, dice rolls determine your fate not only during battles but also during movement through the game world.

We are still exploring this game mechanic and working on how its design functions. You'll be able to try out this mechanic very soon!

Steam Next Fest!!!!!!!

And our next stop is 10th June at Steam Next Fest! In just 3 weeks you are going to see our new build!

With the introduction of this new system, we would like to get feedback from you before our release.
In addition to the map system, we have some others surprises for this version, but we don't want to reveal all our cards roll all the dice just yet. Let's just say: from a gameplay perspective, the game has become much more diverse, so we want to make sure we're moving in the right direction.

Here is a BIG tease of some of the new dice you will see in the demo:

And yes, you will be able to check out our new map system too!

Also, as many of you know, Steam Next Fest is also a great opportunity to show the game to new players, so here we count on your support.

Future plans.

Steam Next Fest is the final stop before the push towards the Early Access release. We don't want to make promises too early, but we plan to release the game this year and sooner than you might think. We know it's a bit vague, but think of it as a pleasant surprise if everything works out as expected!

And as always: add Die in the Dungeon to your wishlists if you haven't already!

Die in the Devlog vol.1

24 Nov, 2023

Hello, friends! Today is announcement time!

Here we go: on December 1st, our new prologue, Die in the Dungeon: Origins, will be released!

While we are preparing for the release, making final adjustments to the balance, and finishing localization (which we'll also talk about today), let's discuss the progress we've made since the release of the last version of the game.

Sit back and relax; there's a lot of exciting new details waiting for you!

And remember: all these gameplay elements will also appear in the full version!

So… What is Origins?

Origins is a free prequel to the main game, coming to Steam in just a week! The game takes place several years before the events of Die in the Dungeon, featuring many new mechanics and a new playable character, Lisver.

For this prologue, we have updated the art and introduced new features to make the game more interesting and unique, while also keeping the core dice and board mechanics from the original version.

Let's dive into the details!

Perilous Events

Throughout your adventures, you'll encounter not only a series of new enemies and dice but also unique events. True heroes don't just fight. Now, between battles, you'll sometimes come across special events where you can make decisions that open up new dice or, on the contrary, become obstacles you'll have to deal with. And there, you can acquire new relics!

Whaaaaat? What are these relics? Don't worry; we'll explain now!

Precious Relics

Relics are special items that will change the way dice work, altering the properties of your board and the rules of the game.

We've added more than 40 relics to help you create even more unique decks of dice. After all, their main task is to make each playthrough unique!

The Prism

New dice coming! Prism Dice are a highly powerful type of dice... if used correctly. By themselves, they don't really do much. But when you combined them with other dice, well, they say a gif is worth more than a thousand words:

That's right, Prims Dice reflect the power of other dice like Boost and Mirror, allowing them to target more slots and increasing their power greatly. Not bad, uh?

Meet Lisver

Lisver is a semi-retired Dice Knight, a legendary hero considered by many to be the fastest warrior in the realm. His offensive-based fighting style focuses on striking first and striking hard, with its own unique battle board and a brand new dice property: Flash.

But new heroes need new enemies!

The Doctor is here!

Coming from the depths of the dungeon, a new enemy appears!

Plague bugs will use their poisonous potions to infect your board. This infection will quickly spread through slots, so use your dice to stop it before it's too late!

[GIFs of the plague enemy throwing potions on the board and player]

But believe us, this guy shouldn’t be your main concern! Someone bigger is waiting for you around the corner…

Localization!

Finally, let's discuss the localization of our new prologue! Making the game accessible to player all around the globe has been a priority for us for a long time…

So, we can confirm localization in 11 languages: English, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, and Turkish!

Currently, we are selecting fonts, testing translations, and will strive to prepare all these languages for the release!

That's all for today!

Don't forget to add Die in the Dungeon to your wishlists so you get notified when it launches!

Remember: on December 1st you will be able to try out all these... for free! Save the date!

Until next time!

Die in the Dungeon

Why is a D20 in the logo?

From what I've seen only D6's are used, i'm wondering if this is either a design flaw or whether we can look forward to bigger dice in later levels.

Bug: Soft Lock when upgrading to Gold when have no Silver

I gladly took the option to upgrade my Basic die all the way to Gold. It didn't let me and I had to force quit.

disappointed by new art style.

i much preferred the old one. it had a nice appeal. the new one feels like it's trying to make everything feel too safe and soft and took away a chunk of the personality i was interested in.
