Hi, everyone! Ryan here, creator of Wicked Seed. I wanted to share how progress is going on the upcoming Daybreak update. Public Testing Branch In the first update I mentioned how I wanted to have the update available for public testing in mid-July but that has slipped back a couple of weeks as there were some unanticipated hurdles I didn't account for. I'm now looking at early August for the p…

Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know The Pit update is now live. The demo has also been updated to support the backend changes included in the update, although the actual content of the demo is unchanged.

Hey, everyone! Ryan here, creator of Wicked Seed. Just a quick progress update for you all. The Pit update is going well, but it has grown a good bit more than I originally planned. It's still possible I could get it released in late April, but it might sneak into early May as the QA process has been pretty intense. I've added a wide range of QOL and new features not related to just The Pit con…

Hey everyone! Ryan here, creator of Wicked Seed. Well it's been a week since launch!

Hey everyone! Another large download today, but I have made progress in separating assets to be able to patch code, items, enemy stats, etc. and have them be just a few MB. Having to touch level data still creates large download sizes, but I'm hopeful this should be the last download of this size. I appreciate everyone's patience as I work to improve this! Let's go over the details of today's p…
