Hello, friends! Today is announcement time!
Here we go: on
December 1st, our new prologue, Die in the Dungeon: Origins, will be released!
While we are preparing for the release, making final adjustments to the balance, and finishing localization (which we'll also talk about today), let's discuss the progress we've made since the release of the last version of the game.
Sit back and relax; there's a lot of exciting new details waiting for you!
And remember: all these gameplay elements will also appear in the full version!
So… What is Origins?
Origins is a free prequel to the main game, coming to Steam in just a week! The game takes place several years before the events of Die in the Dungeon, featuring many new mechanics and a new playable character, Lisver.
For this prologue, we have updated the art and introduced new features to make the game more interesting and unique, while also keeping the core dice and board mechanics from the original version.
Let's dive into the details!
Perilous Events
Throughout your adventures, you'll encounter not only a series of new enemies and dice but also unique events. True heroes don't just fight. Now, between battles, you'll sometimes come across special events where you can make decisions that open up new dice or, on the contrary, become obstacles you'll have to deal with. And there, you can acquire new relics!
Whaaaaat? What are these relics? Don't worry; we'll explain now!
Precious Relics
Relics are special items that will change the way dice work, altering the properties of your board and the rules of the game.
We've added
more than 40 relics to help you create even more unique decks of dice. After all, their main task is to make each playthrough unique!
The Prism
New dice coming! Prism Dice are a highly powerful type of dice... if used correctly. By themselves, they don't really do much. But when you combined them with other dice, well, they say a gif is worth more than a thousand words:
That's right, Prims Dice reflect the power of other dice like Boost and Mirror, allowing them to target more slots and increasing their power greatly. Not bad, uh?
Meet Lisver
Lisver is a semi-retired Dice Knight, a legendary hero considered by many to be the fastest warrior in the realm. His offensive-based fighting style focuses on striking first and striking hard, with its own unique battle board and a brand new dice property: Flash.
But new heroes need new enemies!
The Doctor is here!
Coming from the depths of the dungeon, a new enemy appears!
Plague bugs will use their poisonous potions to infect your board. This infection will quickly spread through slots, so use your dice to stop it before it's too late!
But believe us, this guy shouldn’t be your main concern! Someone bigger is waiting for you around the corner…
Localization!
Finally, let's discuss the localization of our new prologue! Making the game accessible to player all around the globe has been a priority for us for a long time…
So, we can confirm
localization in 11 languages: English, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, and Turkish!Currently, we are selecting fonts, testing translations, and will strive to prepare all these languages for the release!
That's all for today!
Don't forget to add Die in the Dungeon to your wishlists so you get notified when it launches!
