Dwelvers is a real time strategy game inspired by the old time classics Dungeon Keeper and Settlers. The player needs to guide their minions in digging out paths and rooms, and claiming them for themselves, growing their dungeon. The game will be based on creating your minions and keeping them pleased in various ways. Then you will lead them into battle to defeat your enemy and claim victory! The most challenging part for the player will be creating advanced production chains so as to have enough food to keep their creatures well fed, enough weapons and armour to outfit their army as a force to be reckoned with, and of course enough beer to keep them satisfied with you as their master. A drunk minion is a happy minion! The theme of the game will have a lot of dark humour, and each creature will have its own personality, demands and fighting style; forcing the player to handle all the creatures in different ways in order to max out their potential.

Dwelvers Alpha Demo 0.9c


Trailer video


As this will be the first 0.9 release for the Steam users I may become a little repetative in the news flow, I hope you don't mind.

There have been some delays since the 0.8 version, and as usual the reason is that I want to get as much in there as possible, and the longer I wait with the release the more perfect it has to be Tongue Now Dwelvers has been bug tested and balanced thanks to the forum members, their help has saved me a huge amount of time and I am therefore hugely grateful to them Smile

The main update with the 0.9 version is the surface world but we also have a lot of other features introduced that will keep the player occupied, some of these features changes the game play since previous versions and can create some confusion. But to avoid this we have added some help tools in the game. The tutorial are still incomplete and needs work, but I don't want to put down to much time on it at this moment as the game features are still under some changes, and I don't redo the tutorial to frequently or lock my self up by avoiding adding features because I would know this would require extra work with the tutorial, I hope this is understandable.

Let us go outside!

Repairing enabled

[Image: RepairEnabled.png]


Now we have an option to repair different objects in the dungeon with a simple click instead of waiting on them to regenerate their health. The main reason why this feature got implemented now is because we need a repair option for the fences. In the next update I will make it so that when a fence is damaged enough it will not be destroyed, it will only get a new model that shows that it is possible for the enemy to walk right over the fence, then the player will have to repair it again, or sell it and build a new one.
