Good news everyone! Joshua and I have been working hard lately on adding Steam Workshop support to Delver, a feature that we have been looking forward to having for a long time. This is an important feature, as our awesome community can now easily share their additions to Delver and help make the game bigger and better or even help translate the game for their language.

Along with this update, we're opening up our Steam Workshop to everyone. We've already added some example mods ourselves (with source code available, if you want to see how we made them!) alongside some mods from our community members that are all available to play right now. Go check it out!

To play a mod, just subscribe to it via our Workshop page. Steam will then download the mod for you, and the next time you open up Delver it will add it into the game.

Some Mods to try
Guns for Delver by Joshua
Weapon Expansion Pack by Lobo
Grey Wizard Character Pack by Joshua
Boarding Party (sci-fi total conversion) by Cuddigan

Language Packs
Joshua has also been working hard on making sure Delver can be localized for different languages, and a few awesome community members have made translation mods that are available right now as well!

German Translation by BlueStone
Spanish Language Pack by Lobo

Thanks to everyone that helped make a mod or translate the game into a new language! We're super excited to see what the community adds to Delver, because we have been blown away by what we've seen already.

Changes

• Game is now localizable into different languages
  
• Mod loading from Steam Workshop
  
• Mod uploader added to DelvEdit
  
• Game folds more mod resources together properly
  
• Added gun support
  
• New light halos on high graphics
  
• Characters have shadows now!
  
• Level lighting process is much faster now
  
• Better outdoor level generation support
  
• Shopkeepers have more dialogue now
  
• And more!

Sup Delverers. The weather is getting colder, and I'm drinking eggnog which can only mean one thing: it's Delver Update Time. We have been busy with all kinds of fun additions lately, mainly focusing on upping our ranged attack game. Wands have been given some love to differentiate them all, and archers get a whole new revamped arrow physics system that is super accurate, and a whole toolbox of new bows to find.

There's some other fun stuff in there as well, including a boatload of new weapon and armor enchantments, a durability system, and some hidden stuff. Consider it our holiday gift to you, our favorite fans.

Changes

• New arrow physics system - arrows stick in and can be recovered from walls
  
• Arrows shot into mobs have a chance of being dropped on death
  
• Arrows have a chance of breaking on hit
  
• Bows can be enchanted, damage enchantments follow through with the arrow
  
• A whole heap of new bows, differentiated by range. damage, and speed
  
• Magic missile wand now lets loose a volley of rapid missile attacks
  
• Weapon and armor quality decreases over time when used
  
• Fire missile wand now causes a huge explosion on hit - be careful!
  
• New paralyze wand to stop foes in their tracks
  
• Magic weapons have a chance of being unidentified
  
• Added identify scrolls
  
• Added 'Enchant Armor' and 'Enchant Weapon' scrolls
  
• Items can have both a suffix and prefix enchantments now
  
• Loot drops are weighted a tad now based on player stats
  
• Magic missiles can be knocked back with a melee attack
  
• Graphical updates for the Ice and Storm wands
  
• Start area gained a happy little waterfall
  
• New particle effects - things kick up dust now
  
• Status effect animations for poison / being on fire / being paralyzed
  
• Start of a fire system, that can spread fire to other entities
  
• Torch animation updates
  
• UI improvements for the Save Selection and Shop screens

Bug Fixes

• Bug fix - level change screens should show the correct floor names always
  
• Bug fix - pressure plate traps have returned!
  
• Bug fix - mobs no longer climb up onto eachother / the player
  
• Bug fix - fixed decal drawing, doubled number of decals that can appear
  
• Bug fix - gamepad honors 'invert look' value
  
• Tweak - mace knockback values balanced
  
• Tweak - crosshair is always shown when holding a ranged weapon now

Welcome to another Delver update! We're back after a hiatus (more on that below) with one of our biggest updates. This time we've added a new dungeon section, the Temple, that expands the game with two new dungeon floors full of undead horrors and nasty traps. If you survive that, you might find even more changes...

Along with that, we've also worked on making Delver even better with improved water effects, a bunch of bug fixes, a new randomized trap system, a totally revamped death screen, and potion grenades. Did we mention potion grenades?

Changes

• New dungeon area, the Temple!
  
• Boss area update
  
• Mouse wheel can be used to switch between hotbar items
  
• Better win / death screens.
  
• Potions can now be thrown when held
  
• Added water trim effects
  
• Fixed more cases where the player can get stuck while teleporting
  
• Juiced up magic particle effects
  
• Removed last vestiges of the cursor mode
  
• New splash particle effect
  
• Spikes are now 100% more metal
  
• Crusher traps to turn players into paste
  
• Collapsing floors
  
• Tweak to improve clipping plane issue with high FOVs
  
• Probably other stuff we've forgotten

Announcements!



This update is dedicated to Malcolm Laurence Skelton, the first child of our resident artist Joshua Skelton and his wife Melissa. Look at that little guy!

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...
