Dev Update #10 | TOP 500, WePlay 2023, Closed Tests, and more…



Dwarves!


We've been reaching out to you more often lately, and there's a good reason for that – a lot has been happening in the world of First Dwarf! We're making sure to present the game at as many events as possible to gather valuable feedback!

Today we bring you the most exciting updates from the past few days and a little treat!

[h2]TOP 500[/h2]

Let's kick things off with what made the beginning of the week exceptionally awesome for us! First Dwarf has made its way into the TOP 500 most wishlisted games on Steam! This is a huge honor and a testament to the anticipation building up for our hard work!

Thank you, and we're not slowing down! We believe more people will join those eagerly awaiting the adventures with Tru and Ragna.

[h2]WePlay[/h2]

If you've been following us closely, you probably know that we're writing this update shortly after some members of our team returned from Shanghai. We were fortunate to fly to China, where we presented First Dwarf at WePlay 2023 – one of the biggest gaming events in that part of the world.



We want to express our gratitude to CRPK (Center for the Development of Creative Industries), Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, and Indie Games Poland Foundation, without whom we wouldn't have had such a fantastic opportunity.

[h2]Work In Progress[/h2]

We've heard that you enjoy Work In Progress materials from the game… And we heard you loud and clear!

One of our developers is currently working on texturing ancient elements of mech remnants. We could talk about it a lot, but the real magic happens when you see it. So, make sure to check out the video below – a feast for the eyes and proof of how much we value details.

[h2]Closed Tests[/h2]

We couldn’t wrap up this update without reminding you that we're just a few weeks away from the start of closed tests. Priority will be given to selected Discord users, so if you want a chance to be part of this exclusive group... Join our server!

Dwarves!


We recently hinted at a big announcement related to an upcoming event, and there's probably no point in keeping you in suspense any longer...

We're making our way to Shanghai for WePlay Expo 2023!

This upcoming weekend, on November 18-19, you will find us at Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center, where we'll be showcasing our upcoming game, First Dwarf!

[h2]Come and join us![/h2]

If you're attending the event, we warmly invite you to Indie Games Poland booth (Booth B03), where you will have an opportunity to play First Dwarf and experience what we are working on right now. It's a fantastic chance to immerse yourself in this wonderful world and get to know Tru and Ragna up close. They’re very friendly, believe us!

The game is not available online yet, so this will be one of the few opportunities to test it.

We're more than happy to chat with everyone, exchange thoughts and high-fives, and discuss what we love most - video games! As an extra incentive, besides our project, you will be able to check out several other Polish games at the booth. Feel invited!

We can't wait, and... See you there!

波兰游戏工作室 Star Drifters 来了!正式入驻小黑盒

盒友们好!
你好,小黑盒社区!

Star Drifters(星之漂流者)来了!

我们非常高兴正式入驻小黑盒!很高兴能成为这个蓬勃发展空间的一部分,并将我们的游戏带给更多的人。毕竟,游戏就是用来交流的!

关于我们...

我们是一家位于华沙的游戏开发工作室,我们的使命一直很明确——创造能给玩家留下长远影响的游戏。在制作游戏的过程中,我们专注于为玩家打造身临其境的世界、独特的叙事和归属感。我们希望我们的游戏能长期陪伴玩家!

在我们的发展历程中,我们已经推出了多个项目,并在不断创造新的项目。为了更好地表达我们所说的「陪伴玩家的游戏」含义,让我们深入了解一下我们正在开发的游戏和持续开发的游戏!

《漂移大陆:魔法觉醒》

我们的第一款游戏于2019 年 4 月推出,是一款 RTS 游戏,背景设定在迷人的漂移大陆世界。你将扮演一名强大的法师,管理岛屿以恢复大陆的荣耀。但你要留心,这可并非易事,不是每个人都能做到。

《PC Gamer》将这款游戏恰当地描述为:「在丰富多彩的背景下,《Populus》、《地牢守护者》和《魔兽争霸》的混合体」,这一点很难让人反对!

《漂移大陆的牧族》

次年,《漂移大陆的牧族》问世。这款游戏最初是作为《漂移大陆:魔法觉醒》的扩展游戏,但很快就演变成了一个免费的独立扩展。在这里,并非每个人都会选择法师之路。牧族有自己的计划…….

此外,玩家还可以查看「被遗忘的通道」扩展,该扩展包含十个新的游戏场景,可以让你更深入地了解这个深受成千上万玩家喜爱的世界!

《致命游民复仇者》

2021 年,我们推出了另一款游戏《致命游民复仇者》,这是一款以赛博朋克为主题的快节奏动作类天际线爬行游戏。在这个由人工智能统治的世界里,你需要卓越的战斗技能和发达的大脑,才能在最无助的情况下游刃有余。

你将爬出天际。

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1169740/Danger_Scavenger/

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

《深岩破裂者》

就在几个月前的 2023 年 2 月,我们发布了完整版的《深岩破裂者》。这一次,我们把玩家从摩天大楼带到了地下。不同的氛围,全新的氛围,以及探索自己开凿的隧道的自由。

但为什么要弄脏双手呢?为了收集珍贵的流明,将人类从即将到来的厄运中拯救出来。你以为这是在公园里散步吗?想多了!地下蕴藏着最好不要被发现的秘密。你要加入冒险吗?

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1713810/Lumencraft/

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

《不毛之地》

今年早些时候,《不毛之地》进入了抢先版阶段。在这里,我们摒弃了高节奏的动作游戏,回归本源,推出了一款注重战略思维的游戏。在这个由六边形组成的世界中,玩家必须打破常规思维,不断拓展自己的可能性。

但有一点很棘手——经济运行方式与我们的世界不同……它由魔法驱动,让殖民地建设成为前所未有的独特体验。改造充满敌意的月球,为发展创造条件!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1090100/Scorchlands/

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

《矮人元祖》

现在,让我们来谈谈我们即将推出的游戏!

《矮人元祖》可能是我们迄今为止最雄心勃勃的项目,目前我们正全身心地投入其中。在这款身临其境的动作 RPG 游戏中,你可以跳进你的机甲,建造一个基地,探索一个破碎的奇幻世界。当然,你并不孤单!你可以随时依靠一只名叫拉格纳的伙伴龙,再扩大你的定居点……不多说了,去自己寻找答案吧!

成为矮人元祖!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1714900/First_Dwarf/

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

最后……

接下来的几个月里,我们将持续和大家分享我们的最新动态,一想到这里我们就非常兴奋开心。我们迫不及待希望听到玩家朋友们的反馈,了解大家对我们游戏的看法!

敬请期待!我们将带大家踏上繁星之旅!

此致,

Dev Update #9 | Wishlists Milestone, Indie X, Closed Tests, and more…
