In our efforts to make a polish pass for every single area of the game on our march towards release, we've gone back and made some big overhauls to the sewer floors, possibly the weakest part of the game in the past. Now after our overhaul it's home to some of the most interesting level design and architecture in the game, we hope you enjoy it!

In addition to that we've spent some time polishing up some menus, fixing some bugs, and then adding some extra stuff just for fun...

Change log

• Revamped sewer area!
  
• New sewer procedural room generator!
  
• Updated main menu
  
• Game now tracks number of wins / deaths
  
• Added a fancy death animation for the player
  
• Ice wands are a bit more useful now...
  
• Ladders!
  
• Bugfix - dungeon room generator should no longer attach hallways to windows

As always, thanks for playing and let us know in our discussion area here on Steam your thoughts on the new update, and any issues you run into.

It's Delver update time again, and this one is a good tease for things yet to come. You might find a few new places on your way to find the Orb, and the caverns are starting to shift and change as we expand our random level generation from the last update to them as well.

To finish things off, there's also the inclusion of some new music from our friend Derris-Kharlan to accompany you on your way back to the surface, if you happen to survive long enough to enjoy it. He's done more great work, and we're super proud to have it in game!

Features

• Fully procedurally generated cave rooms.
  
• Dungeon generator knows how to make ramps now.
  
• Updated dungeon generator with some more placeable prefabs.
  
• New chase music tracks.
  
• Transitional shop area added between the dungeon and cave areas.
  
• Strange, it's starting to get cold down there...

It's time for another Delver update, and this is a fun one!

Our dungeon generation so far has worked by piecing together hand built level chunks, which has gotten us a long way and let us make spaces that are fun to explore. That also means that you may see the same areas repeat themselves between playthroughs which can be not so fun over time.

This update includes our work making a full procedural dungeon generator. This system lets the game create rooms from scratch when you play instead of relying on us to hand build everything.

This means we can let the game make spaces to explore, but still let us mix in our hand built pieces to make really unique places - the best of both worlds!

We built the rules to create these new dungeon rooms, but what comes out of the other side can still be truly exciting. Take some screenshots when you see an interesting place, because you may be the only person to ever see it :D

To finish things off, we've been working with the super talented Derris-Kharlan to add more tunes to the dungeon. We think they're great, and he's been a pleasure to work with so far. Check out more of his stuff on Soundcloud.

Features

• New dungeon room generator used in dungeon floors 1 & 2 to start with
  
• Some new music, and random track picker system
  
• More stuff, for you to find on your own

Bug Fixes

• Shooting a wand on a moving platform no longer teleports you to the floor below

After a long, but hopefully worthwhile, absence while we were digging around in the guts of Delver, we're back with some great new stuff under the hood to make modding more of a primary engine feature and includes a revamp of the level editor to make it much easier to use.

I mean, look how pretty the editor is now:




My favorite new feature in this update is the mod merging support, which replaces the old way of only being able to ship one new version of a data file around.

In this new system we can load many mods at the same time and have all of their new content pulled into the game. This will let mod makers share new monsters, level pieces, and texture packs and have them seamlessly blend with other content of the same kind from other mods in the style of how games like Skyrim do modding.

I'm really excited to see how this feature can be used to add tons of new content into Delver, all from different authors working on different things. If anyone wants more information on this system, check out the pinned discussion forum post in the Modding subforum for Delver.

• Many mods active at the same time.
  
• Revamped level editor!
  
• Spike traps, and spike pits.
  
• New puzzle dungeon tiles.
  
• Flies have found the dungeon a good place to hang out.

A small bugfix update just went live, it fixes issues with arrows not always hitting mobs when shot from a bow.

As a fun addition, via popular demand here on the forums, it also adds a new Field of View slider to the Options menu.

Thanks for letting us know about these issues!
