Mimics will be coming to Barony!

Brief announcement for you!

Last month we held the Halloween Forever event where players of the official Barony Scarony Halloween celebration mod got the chance to influence a new piece of game content. The players have spoken! The most desired idea from the Halloween mod was the Mimic!

The original screenshot that the community voted for!

I should have guessed that when given the option to add delicious candy and silly costumes to the game, or a terrifying monster that can eat you, the Barony community picks the latter.
Thanks to everyone who participated! Congratulations to the winning player who submitted the idea!

We're still hard at work overhauling the game's UI and making it an excellent experience for gamepad users. I'm particularly excited about split-screen! We'll have more news to share on that soon.
Once that's done we'll be laser-focused on delivering our next big content update which will include Mimics!

If you're new to Barony, welcome!
The game is 50% off now in celebration of Thanksgiving. So gather around a cozy fire and gift your loved ones copies of your favorite co-op dungeon crawler. Nothing says "family" like a boulder smashing everyone flat. Of course everyone who owns a copy of Barony is entitled to the latest version of the game, so if you're excited for that update, it's never a bad time to buy Barony.

Happy Halloween, dungeon dwellers! Barony is the perfect game to enjoy this Halloween. Whether being terrified in isolation, or banding together in a monster squad, Barony has lots of ways for you to enjoy some thrilling scares! Thanks for being part of it.

Halloween Community Event

With Monster Race DLCs "Myths & Outcasts" and "Legends & Pariahs", plus being a dark dungeon crawler already, Barony features tons content to chill your bones. But with the new FREE official Barony Scarony Halloween Celebration mod, there is more spooky content in Barony than ever before. We want to invite YOU to decide which spooky content should have a permanent, unmodded place in the game, complete with new gameplay.

Barony Scarony! Celebrate Halloween with a haunting overhaul!

Welcome ghosts, pirates, zombies, monsters and mortals alike! If you're anything like us, as soon as summer gets close to an end, it's already time to start busting out your DVD copy of Beetlejuice and hanging bat bunting from your doorways. We just can't wait to post this pre-October Halloween update!

While you all are patiently awaiting our major UI overhaul, slated for later this year, we've provided this Barony Scarony Halloween mod! There's still a lot of programming work to do on the UI overhaul, and so we're giving some art time straight to the community with this mod.

You can start playing it right away by subscribing [for free, as always] on the Steam Workshop.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2612424349
Next time you launch Barony, just go to the Workshop item on the Main Menu, enable Barony Scarony, and you're good to go!

Like all of our official seasonal mods, all the changes to the game are purely aesthetic, and so you won't invalidate any achievements by using the mod. You can even download the files into your local mods folder and play with other people who aren't using the mod, and there shouldn't be any conflicts at all.

Some hoods and cloaks have been modified as a matching pair, so the Rogue class now always starts with some sweet demon wings and horns. Combine that with the Incubus face-paint and you'll be looking devilishly handsome, if I do say so myself.

We've replaced a lot of models with horror classics, like slasher weapons. And to give our ghouls a more traditional zombie feel, they're in their funeral suits for this mod!

While we didn't modify some of the tilesets because they're already pretty spooky places, we wanted to bring a bit of otherworldly horror to all of the places in Barony for this overhaul.

From horror to comedy, you'll have all sorts of costume options to compete for your gear selection.

What's Halloween without candy? All the food in the game has been replaced with Halloween sweets to trick-or-treat for.

Over the month of October we'll be making some more additions to the Barony Scarony mod. Was there something iconic that we missed? Give us your ideas in the comments!
Thanks for joining us this autumn to delve dungeons and celebrate Halloween with Barony!

[h2]Happy Barony Valentine's[/h2]

The team's newest content contributor makes his debut with the Happy Barony Valentine's mod.
The Foocubi foes (that's Succubus and Incubus) in the game have gotten all dressed up for a romantic date (note this does not change the look of playable incubus and succubus as these stylish duds weren't made to fit with your armor).
Instead of imps following them around hell, it looks like fireball slinging cherubs are here to spread the flames of passion. Festive food, decor and other fun modifications await you. Inspired by the spirit of romance yet? Grab your partner and share a candle-lit adventure through the deadly dungeons together!
