Match delightfully silly, hand-drawn dogs in Dogpile, a roguelike deckbuilder take on Suika Game


With trends and trendy games passing by these days, I'd understand if you'd already forgotten about Suika Game. I am not here to remind you of its existence to talk about it, more so use it as genre context for Dogpile, a new game that is essentially the question "what if Suika Game actually had a bunch of dogs and was also a roguelike deckbuilder?" I know, I know, there are too many of those already, but this one's just so charming!

SHINY NEW FRESH COOL ART

[p]Hi I’m Jess, one of the devs on Dogpile! Just wanted to pop in for a mo to show you some of the latest art / features / cool bits we’ve been adding for full release.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
A GLOSSARY![/p][p]Still torn on if we should keep it classic or give it a more flavourful name, what do you reckon?[/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]TAG COLLECTION[/p][p]It’s particularly satisfying seeing all the tags you’ve collected.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]COLLECTABLE PALETTES & COLLARS?[/p][p]We’re still deciding if we’ll make palettes & collars collectable vs just auto unlocked. Scope creep comes for us all.[/p][p]
[/p][p]NEW BONES THAT DON’T YELL AT YOU[/p][p]We’ve noticed from our testers that the bones are getting a little out of hand lol. There has to be a better wayyy.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]BONE CURRENCY[/p][p]It felt time to split up the bones into different denominations. A cute touch is we’re using the same colours as we do for the tag rarities. Will this be visually confusing? We’ll find out soon![/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]STEAM ACHIEVEMENTS[/p][p]Very cute, very satisfying for the completionists out there.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]POSTCARD END SCREEN[/p][p]One of the signatures of our games is a funky bespoke postcard that communicates how well you’ve done. The Gubbins ones were a far more extensive feature, where the game let you make hilarious postcards with the words you made, while the Real Bird Fake Bird ones were more simple and centred around your score. The Dogpile on feels somewhere in between, with the context of your biggest dogs, your most recent tags, your deck, your bones collected among other stats AND it even shows it on the palette you were playing in.[/p][p][/p][p]Anyway excited for you all to get to play this stuff! Let us know if you have any feedback on our additions or if there’s anything you really wanna see in the game? [/p][p][/p][p]Love to you all x[/p]
