Greetings Tinkerers !

We are sorry to say that we can't keep our targeted release day for the beta of the desert dungeon update today.

We are working like crazy to bring you the new dungeon experience we imagined but we have still some construction zones in the desert dungeon that need to be finished.

Even though we are talking about a beta release here, we want to provide you with great new content that is fun and that meet our expectations.

We came to this decision today and we move the release day to Friday this week.

Hopefully, you all can wait a little longer! It's going to be amazing! :)

In the meantime, you can help the Devs! Send them a motivational message in comments.

With the extra power from our community, we will open the gates to the desert dungeon in no time!

Do you have questions? We will answer as much as possible!
Again, sorry for the delay people!

Best!

Hello Tinkerers, explorers and adventurers!

A new Update has been uncovered: ON JUNE 16TH THE DESERT DUNGEON WILL OPEN ITS GATES! ːsteamhappyː

Are you brave enough to enter the ancient ruins and face the dangers within?
Check out the video below and get a taste of what’s to come!

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
You asked for more content? The Desert Dungeon will challenge you, providing new enemies, improved enemy behaviour, more gameplay mechanics like traps, lovely loot and - of course - a powerful boss fight!

We have learned a lot from the design of our first forest dungeon and from your feedback. Dungeons should be a challenge, and it should be a place where you test your skills while you wander through the halls exploring fascinating places that feel mysterious and forgotten.

That’s why we will put everything that we have learned from the first dungeon into practice in the desert dungeon. It is our goal to deliver a more engaging and immersive challenge that is inspired by the dungeons of classic 16 Bit RPGs like classic The Legend of Zelda titles!

So prepare yourself and get ready when the gates of the desert dungeon open.
It's going to be a rewarding adventure which you don’t want to miss. 😉

Have you enjoyed Tinkertown so far? Leave us your honest review on Steam!
We had a great time developing Tinkertown since it’s early access release in December 2020.
Many updates have been released since then, bringing you always new content and expanding on the gameplay patch by patch.

And we love to get your honest review! So please consider writing your honest review on Steam.
It helps us a lot to get a feel about what you enjoy and where we must improve next.

Stay tuned for more dev updates about the development of Tinkertown!
Something we want to improve on is transparency about the current development in Tinkertown! While you are exploring and tinkering everything you can in Tinkertown, we set to give you insight on what you can look forward to next regarding content updates and when you can expect new updates to drop!

And we will start with a glimpse into the desert dungeon very soon.

Until then, feel free to join our Discord channel and get in touch with us directly!

See you there!
