GemCraft Legacy Collection coming to Steam!Fellow Wizards! The time has come to travel back and begin your journey anew. After working together with Armor Games, I’m happy to present you the first three GemCraft games together in one ominous package. Experience Chapter 1, Chapter 0, and Labyrinth again (or for the first time) on Steam! Wishlist now! https://store.steampowered.com/app/4207990/Gemcraft__Legacy_Collection/  First screenshot of the next gameHey Everyone, And yet another year passed. This time though, I can finally show a screenshot of the game I’m working on as a detour from the GemCraft series, and as an experimental and study project getting comfortable with the Godot engine. It will be a culinary incremental game about gathering ingredients, collecting recipes to have those ingredients made into dishes during the outcome panel after each run, getting rewarded with coins, buying various upgrades, and getting better each cycle to eventually conquer the upgrade tree.  It’s still early in development, but the scope of the game is not that huge and the Godot engine is developer friendly, versatile and powerful, so I have high hopes for both a release next year, and for paving the way for the possibly final GemCraft chapter. Have a peaceful winter holiday season, see you next year! MerchandiseHey Everyone, And another year passed and still nothing to show about the ever eluding “next game”… But to bring you at least something this year, I’ve made a compilation of illustrations related to the former games, mostly the GemCraft series. In case you or someone you know wanted a GemCraft mug or t-shirt for the winter holiday season, there’s still time to make it happen. You can download a zip file from the front page of gameinabottle.com, and use any of the images within, modify them if you like, and bring them to the local printing shop to get your own merchandise. There is a text file in the zip that tells more about the images, but here is a showcase:  I’ve also had some sample merch done to show you:  Sorry for still nothing more next-game-wise… Until next time, have a peaceful winter season and new year. Winter greetings againHey Everyone, It’s been a year since my last post of sign of life. Many of you asked about my health, and thank you for your messages, the liver I got fortunately works fine, I keep taking my meds and visit my doctor every three months. I’m sorry but I still haven’t progressed enough to bring you screenshots of the next game. I could come up with all sorts of excuses from chronic fatigue to microplastics, but my main debuff is that I’m a black belt procrastinator, I have to work on that as well as on the game itself. In the mean time, I wish all of you a peaceful holiday season. Winter greetingsHey Everyone, Just wanted to wish every one of you a happy and peaceful holiday season and next year. Sorry for the pile of unreplied emails… I’ll write as soon as I have something ready to show about the next game. Life UpdateSorry for the long absence. I was in hospital for 3 months over the last year. In a nutshell, I had PSC and needed a liver transplant. After some rough times, it seems I’ll live and can keep on making games. 🙂 Stay safe, Iron Update for GemCraft Frostborn WrathHey Everyone, After a long wait again, GemCraft Frostborn Wrath has finally got a new major update! The Iron mode, known from the previous GemCraft too, is now added, giving veteran wizards a new flavor of playthrough with the rules tuned for challenge. A great bunch of bug fixes and QoL updates are included too, you can see the full list in the main menu. Keep staying safe and have a great time playing! GOG release and Steam Summer Sale!Hey Everyone! GemCraft Frostborn Wrath has finally arrived to GOG.com! Also, the Steam Summer Sale has started! You can get GCFW on both GOG and Steam with a 25% discount! GOG: More updates are on the way, including the Iron Wizard mode update, please stay tuned, stay safe, and have a great summer! Chilling Update for GemCraft Frostborn WrathHey Everyone, After a long silence, the Chilling Update for GemCraft Frostborn Wrath has finally arrived! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1106530/GemCraft__Frostborn_Wrath/ And if you’re waiting for a GOG release, there might be good news for you too, the game might get on GOG as well soon! Chilling Update details: The initial difficulty of the game got a mixed reception, even after many smaller attempts to make the game’s overall feeling less unforgiving. So now, in addition to the original “Frostborn” difficulty, a new “Chilling” Game mode has been added for those players who just want to smash through the monsters and feel the mana flowing through their veins. Existing Frostborn saved games can be switched to Chilling mode, so you don’t need to start over again for a monster-shredding freezing-edge experience. (Going back to Frostborn is not possible though.) Chilling Mode features:
Other changes and fixes have been added as well:
Stay safe and have a great time! GemCraft Frostborn Wrath released!Hey Everyone, GemCraft Frostborn Wrath is finally out, actually it’s been out for one week by now, but it was such a crazy rush that I didn’t have the time to write a proper post about it yet. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1106530/GemCraft__Frostborn_Wrath/ So far, 11 updates have been shipped for the game, with lots of improvements, lots of bug fixes and difficulty adjustments. More content and tweaking is on the way. I hope you’ll give the game a try, and that you will like it! |
