Dungeon Warfare 3 is OUT NOW!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3419220/Dungeon_Warfare_3/

What, are you still reading? Okay, here we go:

It has been a long journey. Almost two years have passed since we announced DW 3, and we could not have made it here without your support. Thank you to everyone who played the demo and left feedback. It truly helped shape the game.

We pushed hard to make DW3 worthy of the series. The pressure to top the previous games was real, and we hope you enjoy what we’ve built.

What’s next? Free updates
Even after a few delays, some promised features did not make it into 1.0. They will arrive as free content updates every couple of months.

First up: Roguelike Mode (endgame unlock)

• Short runs of about five maps

• Draft Traps and Charms at the start and between maps

• Earn Relics that bend the rules and create wild synergies

• Build a run-breaking loadout and push for the win

• Gain XP for metagame upgrades and unlock stronger Relics

• Climb higher Ascension levels for tougher challenges and better rewards

We will share a more detailed roadmap next week. We will also be working on mobile and Nintendo Switch ports, and we want to give DW1 and DW2 some love as well.

If you enjoy DW3, a Steam review helps us tremendously, especially during launch.
Thank you again for being with us. Have fun, and see you in the dungeons!

Happy New Year, everyone!

I hope the holiday season treated you well. I wanted to drop in with an update on Dungeon Warfare 3 and address the release timeline. First off, I’m sorry for the delay—our original plan was December, but it looks like the launch could now be anywhere between March and July. I know waiting isn’t always easy, and I truly appreciate your patience.

On the bright side, development has been moving along smoothly behind the scenes. We've kept refining gameplay mechanics, enhancing the visuals. And there's a better news: our store page is officially live, complete with a fresh trailer. I hope you’ll check it out and let us know what you think. And don’t forget to wishlist the game.

Moving forward, I’ll be posting monthly development updates to keep you all in the loop. I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating—thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm.

Hello, dear players,

First off, I'd like to thank everyone who commented or gave a thumbs-up on the last post. We've read every single comment. Your feedback has given us a ton of motivation.

Since then, we've been working hard on Dungeon Warfare 3. Today, I'd like to share some information with you.

There have been some upgrades in the graphics department. We’re keeping the pixel art look, but with a slightly higher resolution. We've also enlisted the help of some talented pixel artists. I hope you find it as visually appealing as I do.



My previous post created some confusion about whether there would be a deck-building element in the game. I’d like to clarify that there will be no deck-building. However, there will be cards in the game. Players will be able to create their own world using terrain and building tiles, which will be given in the form of cards. These elements provide passive effects, such as:

- The Plains tile adds a peasant to every wave, providing extra gold for the players.
- The Gold Mine increases the player's starting gold.
- The Library increases the XP yield from adjacent dungeons.

Any ideas regarding these metagame elements are more than welcome.

As for the gameplay, we're adding Heroes. These are powerful units with unique abilities to aid your defense. Players can control their movement by placing waypoints. And of course, there will be powerful new traps for you to experiment with.



A lot more interesting things are in the works.

We plan to release the game this December.
I'll come back in a couple of months with a Steam page that so you can wishlist the game.

Until then, full steam ahead!

Dear players,
It's been quite a while since our last adventure together, and I'm excited to reconnect with you all.

Recently, I've rediscovered my passion for game development and have been exploring some intriguing ideas. Imagine a potent mixture of tower defense, roguelike, and deck-building.
Sounds delicious, no? Well then I thought: "How about I work on Dungeon Warfare 3 instead?"

So here I am. Today, I'd like to share a small milestone: the creation of a logo for Dungeon Warfare 3. Although this isn't the grand announcement of the game's release, it's a step towards bringing our vision to life. I understand this may be a bit of a tease, and I appreciate your patience and continued support.

As many of you know, we operate as a small team. Currently, my partner, the main programmer, is engaged with other projects, making it challenging to fully commit to Dungeon Warfare 3 at this moment. However, I remain hopeful and enthusiastic about the future, potentially revisiting this project in a year or two.

Your thoughts and feedback have always been a cornerstone of our development process. With that in mind, I'd love to hear from you: What are your hopes and ideas for Dungeon Warfare 3? What features or innovations would excite you the most?

Feel free to share your insights and suggestions. Your involvement has always been a driving force behind our creations, and it will continue to shape the future of Dungeon Warfare.

Thank you for being such an integral part of our journey. Here's to more adventures ahead!

Warm regards,
Jinmann

Beta key: dungeonwarfare2

• New Feature - Unit compression - The game will merge newly spawning units in order to reduce the performance hit caused by too many units. The feature kicks in once the unit counter exceeds 100.
  - Compressed units will have multiplied health, bounty, weight, damage, and life cost.
  - The rate of compression will increase as the unit counter increases.
  This will alleviate the crashing / lag issues some players have been experiencing.
