Hello Community,
the development on Cursed Dungeon Raider is moving steadily forward. I am currently further developing the restless Castle of Transylvania, adding new gameplay mechanics and also refining the inhabitants of the world.
During the work, I am generating a massive amount of behind-the-scenes material, like technical breakthroughs, deep lore discussions and nitty-gritty engine work, that doesn't always fit into a standard Steam announcement. To share this deeper level of detail, I have launched a Patreon page.
What is this Patreon for?
Think of it as access to the engine room. It is a space for transparency and deeper connection with the development process. Just recently, our patrons got an exclusive, four-part technical showcase on NPC realism, detailing how the independent eye-tracking and reactive pupil dilation were implemented.
By joining, you get
- Exclusive Access to the Closed Alpha: Previously, the early builds were only available to streamers via KeyMailer. Now, I am opening the doors to supporters. Tier-eligible backers can get their hands on the Closed Alpha build right now to help me test new systems as they go live.
- Field Reports: Frequent, detailed updates on specific mechanics and technical systems.
- Lore Deep-Dives: Explorations of the history of the world before it appears in the game.
- Community Influence: Participate in votes to help us prioritize certain aspects of polish.
A Very Important Note on Commitment
I want to be absolutely clear: Joining the Patreon is 100% optional.
I am committed to delivering the full, finished experience of Cursed Dungeon Raider to everyone on Steam. The game will reach full release regardless of Patreon support. This is simply an avenue for those who want to support directly, get early access to builds and see how the world is being built from the ground up.
If you want to step into the inner circle and help stress-test the latest builds, I’d like to have you.
