Hello Fellow Delusionites!

Thanks so much for all the enthusiastic support for Dread Delusion, we're excited to say that we hit over 1,500 reviews with over 500 in the first week of post-launch alone!

We're also excited to announce that we're partnering with Kira, the developer of Lunacid, to launch the Acid Fantasy Bundle.

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/41610/Acid_Fantasy_Bundle/

If you haven't heard of Lunacid(somehow, but that seems hard to believe) it's a first person dungeon crawler inspired by old FROMSOFT games like Shadow Tower and King’s Field.[hr][/hr] After being deemed undesirable for crimes unknown, you are cast into the pit of chaos known as the Great Well. You must explore the depths of this moonlit subterranean world, traveling ever deeper to confront the sleeping one below. Many secrets to discover, and many threats along the way.

Check out the trailer for Lunacid:
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][hr][/hr]The good news is that this bundle is a complete the set bundle, so if you already own Dread Delusion you can still pick up Lunacid at a discount, and if you own Lunacid and haven't yet picked up Dread Delusion good news... discount!
