Hello Adventurer!
Welcome to version 1.0.0 of Gauntlet of Power!
Last weeks Next Fest demo got a lot of new fans into the game, and I've been watching a lot of Youtube and Twitch videos playing the game, which is so cool to see :)
Based on those videos I was constantly making small changes and tweaks and fixes to the game, so this version isn't only the official release, it is also a very nice balanced update to the demo and the Steam Playtest build!
So go enjoy your time in the dungeon !
If you run into any issue or got questions, I'll try to monitor Steam discussions , but you are also more than welcome to visit the Discord (discord.gg/orangepixel) where I'll be hanging out most hours of the day in the coming week.
I'm already working on things for the first content update, but all ideas are very welcome, as I think together we can really build this game into one of our favorite roguelikes !
