Happy (late) New Year!
After a full year grinding on Die For The Lich, we hope you had a few relaxing weeks and are fully recharged for the year ahead.
v0.9.1 is here!
It is a small update to the game, addressing most common bugs. But first, a loose "roadmap" of how we'd like to build towards a v1.0 release.
So, what's the plan for Q1 2026?
We’ve been hard at work putting together our roadmap for DFTL in 2026, and we’re excited to share a broad overview of what's to come!
We want to focus on refactoring the game's core code.
Fix major and minor bugs.
Balance and rework patches.
Introduce more enemies and bosses.
More weapons, trinkets, abilities and dice.
The Lich enters the chat.
Release v1.0
Early on we focused heavily on adding Weapons, Trinkets and Dice to widen the game. Now our content priority is to make the game deeper, with new enemies, bosses and ways of challenging your build. This will help us better balance the existing content before attempting to build out in other directions.
We are excited to move forward and keep updating the game, it might take some time, but we are hard at work.
