[img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//43942681/182ed2cd1a3cacd5450bd9132ef6ace70475f081.png[/img] I'm [url=https://www.fischergamedesign.com/]Fabian[/url] and run my solo indie dev endeavors under the "Ludokultur" label. For Rack and Slay I teamed up with the amazing artist and animator [url=https://ghostplanet.studio/]Victor Negreiro[/url] to bring my vision of a "billiard roguelike" to life! Here's what's coming to the [b]full version[/b] on top (planned release Q1 2024): [list] [*] Many [b]additional items[/b] to unlock with wild, often more complex effects [*] The shorter [b]Delve mode[/b] with double the item rewards [*] The one-level [b]Raid mode[/b] with random items for a quick burst of mayhem [*] [b]Daily mode[/b] featuring a unique set of game-changing run modifiers every day [*] Plus, obviously, all kinds of tweaks, fixes and polish all around [/list]Additionally, as if releasing a first public demo wasn't thrilling enough, I'm especially excited today to officially announce a publishing partnership with [b]2 Left Thumbs[/b]! Take it away, Graeme! [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//43942681/0e1b378ad080427e3569d6796ce20d210842e8a6.png[/img] Hello everyone! For those unfamiliar, [url=https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/2leftthumbs]2 Left Thumbs[/url] is a "micro-publisher", meaning the whole operation is just me! My mandate as a publisher is in working with small teams whose interests and preferences in video games overlap my own. Fabian and I got to talking over Rack and Slay, and our shared appreciation for affordable and highly replayable roguelikes – combined with my history in publishing roguelike titles – made for a perfect fit to join forces! I hope you find the short and simple runs of Rack and Slay as addictive as I have! I’m thrilled to unveil this partnership, and to finally see this delightful little game in the public’s hands. Please share your feedback either in the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/2311990/discussions/]Steam discussions[/url], or over on the [url=https://discord.com/invite/jbCvcsUA82]Ludokultur Discord[/url].
