Allergies
So this week, we debuffed a particular Sorcerer combo. Some of you already know what it’s about and unfortunately we could not let this riot continue unimpeded. Sorry, folks! In compensation for hitting this class with a rather specific nerf stick (affecting what has been an undoubtedly cool general-purpose combo), we make the humble peace […]
The Quick Fix
This week’s update is just a small bug patch to address a few minor issues that we’ve been able to tackle between travel and expo attendance and networking and blah blah blah et cetera et cetera. Shown above is a classy pic from the A MAZE festival in Johannesburg, which has officially been open since […]
Roguelike Refinements
Balancing this week has, for the most part, focused around bringing some of the more extreme elements of play mercifully in line. Some of the pesky gold challenges have been toned down a little. The revised Demonic Library has been toned down a little. And yeah, even the venerable old Rogue has been toned […]
A little encouragement
In our ongoing quest to fill your dungeoneering experience with as many metrics, achievements and superfluous measurements as possible, we’d like to introduce the basic framework for our new Encouragements system! Despairing players who crumble against Venture Cave and the Den of Danger may now take heart, for while their corpses may lie bloody and […]
The Packmaster
Due to sorta popular demand, we’re extending the locker system slightly with a new “backpack” system, designed to afford players an extra range of temporary loot space for consecutive dungeon adventures. We hope this will make the metagame slightly friendlier and afford some players a little more room to experiment. We’ve also been putting a […]
God o’ Blood
This week’s update introduces the final set of god puzzles, this time belonging to one Dracul T. Undying. Sure, he looks intimidating right now, but he’s really a pretty swell guy once you get to know him. If you learn how to work around his peculiarities and his general incompatibility with life, love and chocolate […]
He’s The Crafty One
This week’s puzzle pack is dedicated to the ever-mischievous Tikki Tooki. Get acquainted with this veteran favourite in a (semi) safe environment under the (sometimes) caring guidance of an (undoubtedly) awesome divinity! Unfortunately, we are making good on our recent threats and going a little “under the hood” for a while — a priority this […]
Chaos Theory
This week’s puzzle focus belongs to good ol’ Jehora Jeheyu, who often feels maligned and misunderstood because, you know, god of chaos and such. Dedicated players will already understand that constructing an actual puzzle around this deity is a somewhat awkward concept, so we kinda made this one into a (very light) narrative piece while […]
Hammering in the Deep
This blog post was hastily penned down in the midst of a catastrophic meltdown within the Kingdom. An ancient, evil entity known as the Server has risen up and cast the realm under its vile shadow, leaving even the most powerful Kingdom Administrators stranded and confused. It is uncertain whether these written words will ever […]
Overgrowth
Here’s a little secret: if you ever want some totally sweet art for your blog updates, first threaten to apply your own laughable art skills to said updates. Then proceed to carry out this threat until your artist finally caves in and sends you something better instead. So, those of you who have been following […]
