Development Update!

Even though the release has been postponed, development is moving forward at full speed, and the game is getting better every single day.

What was planned as the first post-launch update is now being built directly into the release version.

Clearer Dice, Deeper Strategy

We’ve completely improved the readability of the dice:

you can now instantly see which faces deal damage, give shield, or are do nothing.

Even better, the game now highlights enhanced and modified faces from items, just hover your mouse over a die to see exactly how your build is evolving.

This means stronger builds, smarter choices, and deeper strategies.

Loot That Speaks for Itself

Item readability has been heavily improved:

the role of every item now jumps out immediately, making your loot decisions faster and more satisfying.

A New Game Over Screen Is Coming

We’re also crafting a brand new Game Over screen, packed with interesting stats about your run and a full summary of the classes and relics you unlocked.

Thank you for standing with us, your feedback is shaping The Fortress into the game it deserves to be.

The journey continues. The Fortress grows stronger.

And so do you.
