🎲 Demo 0.6 is now live! 🎲

[p]Heyo![/p][p][/p][p]Dobbel Dungeon will be taking part in the upcoming Steam Next Fest! [/p][p][/p][p]In preparation for this event, we’ve just updated our demo with a whole bunch of polish, balance and QoL tweaks that resulted from us slowly but surely closing in on that sweet V1.0![/p][p][/p][p]Speaking of V1.0: Given the amount of work that’s still ahead for the two of us before we’d feel comfortable releasing Dobbel Dungeon for real, we felt that our release window of Q4 2025 was unfortunately a bit too ambitious. As such, we’ve decided to adjust our release window to Q1 2026, so we can give the remaining content the care & attention it deserves. As someone somewhere probably once said: “A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad”.[/p][p][/p][p]In any case, please note that this update features a breaking change to the way overworld data is saved, so if you were in the middle of a run, you will unfortunately have to start a new one after this update. High-level save data, such as tutorials and unlocked heroes, remains unaffected though![/p][p][/p][p]Changelist[/p]
