We know you're excited for Lucky Tower Ultimate, and we want to deliver the best possible version on day one of Early Access. In order to do so, we need to take a few extra weeks to add the finishing touches to the Early Access build, and finish translating all our puns into multiple languages (we wrote a lot of great new stuff for the Village, oops!). The release will now be in September.

Stay tuned for the exact release date of Lucky Tower Ultimate, which we’ll share in the coming weeks!

Thanks for your patience!

Final Demo Update

Lucky Tower Ultimate has been featured this past week in the Games Baked in Germany Steam Event, along with a demo update. On July 1st, the demo will come down in preparation for Early Access launch in August.

Demo Patch Notes:

It mainly includes bug fixes, aside from that there a some notable changes:
Door handles stay down once you enter a door, so you'll know which room you entered already.
Chests now have color-coded locks and keys. For every locked chest, there should be a fitting key on the same floor.
Reduced number of haircuts, for consistency with the Early Access release (sorry, more haircuts need to be unlocked at the barber in the future!).
Improved ragdolls for some enemies.
Some UI polishing

[h3]Why Early Access? [/h3]

We've been working hard on Lucky Tower Ultimate for a few years now, and have already received invaluable feedback from our incredible community has been critical to development.

As a roguelite with randomly generated levels, Lucky Tower Ultimate often surprises us with the many challenging and absurd situations it throws at us each time we play. This wide range of experiences is a lot to adventure through alone, so we want to work closely with our players to create the most entertaining version of the game possible. Input from the community will help upgrade the game to craft a truly ultimate version of Lucky Tower.

We expect that Lucky Tower Ultimate will be in Early Access for less than a year.

Closer to the Early Access launch in August, we'll release a roadmap of updates you can expect to see throughout Early Access development.

In the meantime, wishlist Lucky Tower Ultimate on Steam and join the conversation on the Studio Seufz Discord!

Classic Flash era roguelike makes a comeback with Steam revamp

Sites like Newgrounds and Miniclip were the home of simple and effective games back in the day. The results of The Impossible Quiz are forever burned into my brain at this point after figuring out just what obtuse answer it wants you to give, and while this era of videogames has largely gone the way of the dodo, there's still an uncomplicated enjoyment to be found in them. Lucky Tower Ultimate wants to bring this vibe back, and we finally have a release date for its Steam Early Access launch.
