A brand new trailer is here, and with it, a new version of the demo! This updated demo is a massive step up from previous versions and includes: - Real voice acting - Brand new or reworked locations - New mechanics and collectibles - Huge improvements to the UI and the main menu - New animations and polish of the main characters - Better graphics and performance
... and much, MUCH more!
For the past few months, you’ve been hearing a lot about the development of Gravewatch, and now, I would like to hear from you... The game has been moved to a standalone demo page, meaning that from now on, you can leave a public review of the demo!
Whether you like the new version or not, I would be glad if you could take a couple of minutes and be one of the first to review this game, as every piece of feedback is highly appreciated! ♡
Summer break is nearly here, and while the ATICO team is gearing up for a bit of rest, we couldn’t leave without dropping a fresh patch first. So grab a Watermelon Slice and let's dive in!
🎲 Difficulty D7 + Two New Relics
Any veteran frogs over here? Your next challenge has arrived! D7 difficulty adds a brutal twist:
- Scarcer healing. Fewer opportunities to recover HP, so time to treasure those Heal Dice!
To compensate a little, you will receive a brand new Legendary relic when completing this challenge: Lazarus Heart! And what about the other relic? Feast your eyes:
Grinding Leaf introduces a new mechanic: permanent modifiers! These modifiers persist between battles, letting you snowball power across an entire run. Big thanks to youtuber TimeToGrind for the collaboration!
🧪 Potion Labs Winner!
Our Potion events are officially over! In the first event, players (and testers) raced to unlock the Grand Brewmaster achievement... filling all spots on the leaderboards in less than 24 hours!
On the other hand, the potion labs were brewing with ideas in the past weeks, with more than 100 very original entries! Among the 10 most upvoted, it was hard to pick only one to implement into the game. After much bubbling and tasting, the winner is…
The Ghost Super Potion is a powerful, build-up blast that will make even big mosquitos shiver in fear!
🎮 Controller Support in [beta]
The first controller-ready build is live on a beta branch for anyone who wants an early peek!
How to opt-in on the [beta] branch:
Right-click Die in the Dungeon in your Steam library → Properties.
Open the Betas tab.
Enter the code "enterditdbeta" and select the branch.
A new "Controller Support" category has been added to the in-game feedback panel, please report anything wrong or wonky. We're aiming to gather notes and ship a polished, default-branch build later this summer.

🔮 What’s Next and a Merch Poll!
That’s all for today, but plenty is simmering for the summer: new enemies, brand-new mechanics, the long-awaited Endless Mode, and more! We want to iterate on every feature to make sure they are just right, and we make it with the help of our amazing testers (thank you guys!). If you’d like to join that crew, hop into our Discord!
But there's not only testing on our server! We also run regular polls, events, and sneak-peeks there. This is our current question to the community:
we're thrilled to introduce Sim Racing Telemetry v1.17.0! This update brings full support for F1 25 right out of the box — complete with dynamic wheel camber insights and a brand-new feature that translates cryptic telemetry values like “DRS 1” into clear and concise readings such as “DRS On” and “Terrain Tarmac”. And that’s just the start: keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming Racing Line feature for F1 25.
But there’s more under the hood! We’re rolling out a new SRT file format that shrinks file sizes by a third — meaning faster telemetry load times and extra space for your data. All your existing files will auto-convert on startup (so, just a brief wait and you’re good to go).
We didn’t stop there. Enjoy a slew of quality-of-life enhancements, from an intuitive guided tour mode to a refreshed game selection screen loaded with session counts, dates, convenient tooltips, sortable columns, and speedy multi-threading. Plus, dive right in with pre-recorded sessions that showcase the full power of the app — no recording required.
We’re excited for you to experience these improvements on the track, and as always, we can’t wait to hear your thoughts. Happy racing and see you in the fast lane!
