Hello Dungeoneers!
Thanks to everyone that provided feedback and comments on our first day in Early Access! We’re happy to report that most of the issues have been amended and that most multiplayer issues have been fixed or at least improved.
* Also, we’ve re-made the Linux 64x 84x versions - please let us know if you have problems playing these again!
We’d just like to summarise some questions that were asked of us so that we can have complete clarity with the community:
Q: What is the difference between the free-to-play and premium versions?
A: Premium users will have access to all heroes and the premium-exclusive skin. Free-to-play players will have access to 4 heroes a week, on a rotating basis.
Q: Can free to play players get locked heroes or skin?
A: Apart from the free characters each week, we don’t have plans to allow heroes to be acquired through game progression.
Q: If there are any new heroes in the future will premium players have to purchase again?
A: At the moment: probably.
Q: If there is new content in the game, is it going to be free?
A: We will judge whether new content should be free and whether it will be fair for all users if it isn’t.
Q: I can’t play with my friends, is it because I am playing the free-to-play version?
A: No, it was a known bug. We have put a filter (filtering by Ping) in our game to filter out players from different regions for example players from Asian territory may not be able to play with those from Europe. Ver 1.041 has been released today where access whether or not to remove the filter.
Q: Any plan to add new content?
A: We are currently refining the existing content that will be available on the official release of the game. Before release we will of course keep an eye on all feedback as well as the popularity of the game. (We may not be able to respond to every message but we will keep them all in mind.)
Q: Will there be any other room systems in the future? (For example matching system?)
A: We understand the stability is not up to standard we want just yet, and we are currently working on it. We will bear this in mind and hopefully there will be new systems in the future.
Q: Why are your English responses sometimes a bit strange and sometimes good?
A: Sometimes we really want to respond to our beloved English-speaking friends immediately, without going through the proper translation channels. At other times (like this release) we get our English partners to translate and double-check the English.
Lastly, we aim to browse ALL the feedback and comments you posted in the community, some of them are helpful and some of them are quietly deadly. All we need is time and a little bit of community patience to improve the usability.
We sincerely hope that you have a good time playing Hunger Dungeon with your friends and if you would like to, please support us by purchasing the full game package as this will allow us to keep the support going that much longer.
PS. It should be fine now for most of you playing with your friends for the Ver 1.041. We cannot guarantee its 100% bug free but as of writing we haven’t found any in our native country of Taiwan. If there are any, please don’t hesitate to post to the community we will fix them ALL!!!!
