A new world, with new possibilities! This land is devastated by the Tyrant Hand's influence, changing the behavior of enemies and objects alike. Perhaps this could even be used to your advantage?

Hey! It's been awhile, just wanted to let everyone know that the Nightmare Forge update is still being worked on; it's going to be a bit later than the Q3 projection on the roadmap, but not by much. I'll have a release date as soon as I'm confident in one. Thanks for your patience!

Forgot to mention, had a great time at CCS last weekend! Thanks to everyone who showed up to try the game out!

Thinking I might use the special demo build I made to update the existing steam demo sometime soon?

Due to some unexpected difficulties and general April busyness, sad to say the Scarlet Incursion update will be coming a bit later than expected. Sorry for the delay!
Here's a tiny sneak peek at the new Legacy viewer as compensation.

In modern times games are getting more expensive than ever, but worry not! There's still lots of worthy titles still being released at reasonable pricepoints; $80 for a single game, or 10 copies of DASHPUNCH? The choice is yours!
