Greetings Dice Slingers!
We’re well underway with the work on our fourth character for SpellRogue - a Dice Slinger with a mastery of Air Spells!
Some of the primary themes are lightning and wind magic. These fantasies are informing our choices on how the mechanics should feel: Lightning is tied to raw damage and repeating attacks, while wind’s focus is on flexibility and the nuances of spell placement in relation to each other. Spell positioning becomes a concern but also a resource, so depending on how you build your character, there are some interesting and deep choices for both inventory management and in combat.
There are of course also many other new mechanics and keywords that are coming together to form a cohesive whole, and we’re super excited for how it's turning out already!
As previously mentioned, the Air Dice Slinger is being introduced with SpellRogue 1.0 in late Q1 2025, along with new features, general improvements and other secrets lurking in the deep Void.
Winter Sale & Price Increase
In other news, the Winter Sale is here! And with it a 25% discount is available for SpellRogue right now!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1990110/SpellRogue/
Meanwhile we have decided to increase the base price when the Winter Sale ends, so right now is the cheapest you will be able to grab the game for a while! The price is changing from 15.99 USD to 19.99 USD (regional pricing will see a similar change). We’re doing this now as SpellRogue has improved substantially since the start of Early Access and the amount- and quality of content has greatly increased, which is why we feel the new price is a fair change.
May your dice roll true 🧙
