Diplomacy is Not an Option News

Development Diary (Part 8)


Good Lords, Fair Ladies!

And another Diary is here!

As always, a video…

▶️Deadly Consequences

…and details.

BE CAREFUL, SPOILERS AHEAD
[expand]
This is the second mission out of the two alternative ones. Good news: you won’t encounter any bugs here. Bad news: there is another specimen of the local fauna to block your way.

Heffalumps. Huge, massive creatures that tower over your castle. And yes, they are considered mini-bosses. Those giants stroll across the map, posing a huge threat to your well-being. Defend your castle and prepare for the sole wave of the mission, consisting only of Heffalumps. As usual, all the enemies on the map take part in the final wave, so hunting down every single one of them may come essential for your survival…

But should you even fight this time? What if there’s a way to resolve the conflict with nature peacefully? That’s for you to find out.

This is it for this Dev Diary! In the next one you’ll learn what is to happen on the shore, so keep an eye on our news!

Development Diary (Part 7)


Good Lords, Fair Ladies!

Today is a good day for the next Dev Diary!

As always, a video…

▶️Call an exterminator!

…and details.

And again you face a choice: which of two missions to play? Let’s look at the first mission which takes place in snowy mountains.

The further you go into Uncharted Continent, the more enemies you make. First it was local tribes, then undead. This time it’s bugs. Yes, you are reading it right. Bugs. Huge man-eating bugs, who aren’t fond of your being in their territory. They appear exactly when you decide to run away from these cursed lands. Now you have to fight your way to the shore.

In addition, those bugs have Queens, spawning even more bugs. Now isn’t that lovely? One more problem for you to tackle.

Also, the local tribes won’t let you leave peacefully. Why? Well, this you will learn while playing the campaign. Maybe they are just huge bug-lovers.

That’s it for the Dev Diary, but more is planned!

Development Diary (Part 6)


Good Lords, Fair Ladies!

The Diaries continue, and today we have a close look at the next mission!

As always, a video…

▶️Curiosity killed the cat

…and details.

Tired of fighting? Have a rest!.. We’d love to say, but it’s doubtful you can get rest even in death with all those undead roaming around. But hey, fighting is not the main focus of the mission!

So, what’s this all about? Well, the princess is still with you and she has a brilliant idea how to make undead leave you alive and alone. By building. For some reason they don’t like buildings of a specific construction. And you better finish it early!

And maybe it’ll stop that annoying creature from talking to you ever again.

That’s it for today, but more is to come!

Development Diary (Part 5)... and a Weeklong Deal


Good Lords, Fair Ladies!

The release date is announced, but it doesn’t mean the Dev Diaries are going to stop. Today we have another mission to explore.

Oh, but first, this week you can get our game with a 35% discount! This is a great opportunity before the release!

Now, as always, a video…

▶️Death song

…and details.

BE CAREFUL, SPOILERS AHEAD

Yet again you face a tough choice… though not right off the bat. Something is waiting for you in this location. And you aren’t going to like it, because to get there you’ll need to fight through hordes of undead again. And who knows if what awaits you is friendly.

Also, King isn’t happy it takes you so long to get gold. He sends a new, more capable expedition. And that strange thing from the previous mission has returned. It keeps talking and destroying walls. Disgusting.
[/expand]
Well, this is it for today's Dev Diary, but it’s not the last. The end isn’t even close! Stay tuned!
