A short 'Happy Holidays' to everyone and some news!
Hello! Just wanted give you some news about what's coming and wish everyone the best possible christmas/holidays/whatever you wish to celebrate!
The work on the DLC is going just fine. It takes longer than I expected but I'm still confident it will be ready for a release in February. Hopefully beta-testing will start in late January. Maybe I've written this before, but no harm in writting it again I suppose:
The DLC will be Elves vs Demons. and it will feature:
* All new units, portraits and buildings.
* All new enemies and bosses.
* New maps.
* Less focus on mining and more focus on building strategic defenses.
* Mage units (many people have asked for this and there will be plenty of it.)
* Really powerful and expensive magic skills. A big part of the game will be
managing your mana-resource and using it wisely in your defenses.
* New soundtrack, still songs from the one and only Vindsvept, whose music is in the original game.
* Some different god other than Mogha (I have some ideas but haven't really settled on one yet)
In total it will be a similar but still rather different game, maybe more like a sequel than a DLC. And I'm really trying not to make a cheap re-skin, so I am focusing a lot on making it a familiar but still new experience.
Anyways: Once again a huge thanks to everyone who has bought the game, all the support I have recieved and all the bugs you have reported. I'm working the best I can on improving the game, but sometimes things move a bit slow, especially when you are only one person, so thanks for patience =)
Happy holidays everyone! I will be visiting friends and family and taking a fews days.
Oh, and yes, the game is on Steams Winter Sale, so if you want to share it and/or give it to someone as a gift, please do =) It's only 2 dollars at the moment and I hope you think it is worth it!
Best wishes//Mattias
