Update Preview Num.1 (Wolrd Map, Campfire, Relics)

Hi guys!

Before I begin today's update, I want to recap the yesterday's highlights.

There will be an update...

...This Thursday night February 18th! (PST) This update will add a few exciting new features, and you can think of it as a polished version of the beta test version some of you recently played.

The price will change from 75% off to 60% off

As we announced when we launched the game on Early Access, we are increasing the price as more content is being added. (It will take a few days until this price change goes effective after this upcoming update because it takes a few days to get Valve's confirmation after we change the price.) So some of you who hasn't gotten Dicetiny yet, this is the best time to get it!

Our journey to find the greatest Steam banner of all time (!?)

First of all, thank you for participating in the yesterday's poll for the greatest banner of all time on Steam. It was the most comments we've ever seen here. We will probably do this sort of thing more often, so stay tuned guys. Those of you who missed it, it's not too late btw. Go here to cast your vote! -> Click The winner will be announced...this Thursday!

Now let's take a look at what kind of changes you will see in the upcoming update. Let's go!

World Map

Tada!
inspired by the maps from classic games like Super Mario, you can challenge the stages that are currently unlocked in any order you wish as long as they are unlocked, however we're currently considering to make this a linear progression for most of the stages. Some stages are locked at first but clearing stages with a castle will unlock them. The goal of the game is to clear all the stages within a certain number of days given (In this case, 28 days) with each stage costing 1 day if you play it, which means if you die in a stage, that counts as 1 day, and retrying it will cost another 1 day. If you fail to clear all the stages within 28 days, the world is doomed, and will be ravaged by the ruthless force of Dead Serious.

Campfire

Campfire is where you can buy minion/spell cards as well as relics with the GEMs you earned by clearing stages. You can also manage your decks and relics. Entering Campfire costs 1 day so think carefully before you make that decision.

Relics

Relics are passive skills that are triggered if your dice show a certain number. Each relic is assigned with a number, and the relic's skill is activated when that your dice show that number. You can unlock relics by clearing stages, and can equip up to three of them to your hero.

Btw you can watch me talking about these new features in this recent video I posted: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqgrSaJB5sA

Alright guys, I will be back tomorrow with more details on the upcoming update. Have a great day!
