Despot's Game: Dystopian Battle Simulator News

[h3]The Despot recommends doing it now because we've added TWO brand new modes to the game: No Food and Sprint![/h3]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1227280/Despots_Game_Dystopian_Battle_Simulator/

Hurry up, punies: the offer ends on May 19th.


[h3]The game is now available on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch![/h3]

[h2]• NEW MODE: Sprint 🏃 •[/h2]



Sprint is a shortened version of d'Spot's dungeon that lets you reach the online King of the Hill mode faster. Is it easier though? HELL NO IT ISN'T, puny human!

To unlock the Sprint mode, you must beat the game at least once. Winning in No Food mode counts, too! We're still experimenting with the food mechanic, so the new mode can be played both with and without food.

Just a reminder: in the previous update for Season 10, we added No Food 🍔❌ mode for those who just hate going hungry.


[h2]• NEW MUTATIONS •[/h2]

• Medical Vampirism: Healers gain 15% of damage dealt as health;
  
• Acid Bullets: Shooters reduce enemy armor by 5% when attacking. The effect stacks. Duration: 4 sec.;
  
• Magic Mirror: Healers and Shooters have a 30% chance to stun enemies attacking them with magic damage for 4 seconds;
  
• Skillful Link: Shooters affected by Fighters' "Linked" mutation have 20% increased damage;
  
• Speed Magic can now also be acquired on Healers.

• Egghead Towers ability cooldowns increased: 9 sec. -> 14 sec.;
  
• Hard Mode has been adjusted slightly: monster abilities are now stronger, which means you'll need to field a more balanced team, not just a stronger one;
  
• Enemies that only appeared in rooms with food have been added back into the rotation in No Food mode.
  
• There can't be more than 3 Thornies in a room now;
  
• Magic resistance now affects Mantrap's «Stuffed Cabbage» ability (that ability deals 8% of max HP per second)

[h2]• New Mode: "No Food" 🍔❌ •[/h2]

That's right: in this brand new game mode, your units don't need to eat. But the cost of newbies now depends on how big your squad is: the bigger it gets, the more expensive they'll be. You'll still see Sacrificial Pits, but they'll just be for fun now. The fun will end for you if accidentally click on one, so tell your puny humans to watch their step.



And yes, this mode works with multiplayer King of the Hill. But it's primarily for anyone who gets annoyed with the food mechanic. Give the game a try without it, and we'll see how it goes. We'd love for you to visit our Discord server and share your thoughts on the new mode with us. Or you can just come post memes in the off-topic channel.


[h3]• Balance changes •[/h3]

• Increased cooldown for "Impulse" of Eggheads' towers (Tier 5 Eggheads class ability): 7 ⇒ 9s;
