- SHATTERED PIXEL DUNGEON SMITH ANDROID
Please note that this is not a specific plan or content roadmap. This includes at least one new hero, big quest reworks, and probably a bunch of smaller additions/changes as well.
In 2023 I want to actually release some of the major content additions that I promised in 2022.
SHATTERED PIXEL DUNGEON SMITH ANDROID
While 2022 was lighter on new content than I'd like, it did include Shattered's release on Steam! I've been so thrilled to see Shattered do well outside of the mobile sphere, and hope to see it continue to grow on Steam as it has on Android and iOS. Some progress has definitely been made, but there's no way around the fact that 2022 has been a more quiet year with just 3 major updates. Of the 13 items listed in last year's post, 3 were fully completed, and 4 were partially completed.
Focus costs 3 energy and lets the monk prepare to dodge the next incoming attack, just like a dwarven monk would.īefore getting to what I have planned in 2023, let's take a quick look back at 2022. This is great for a quick reposition, and even goes over hazards. Dash costs 3 energy and lets the Monk instantly move to a location within a few tiles. Cleanse costs 2 energy and removes most harmful effects from the Monk, but takes a couple of turns. This strike is instant if it follows up a regular attack, making it a great finisher. Flurry of Blows costs 1 energy and lets the Monk make a quick unarmed strike that penetrates armor. This plays a bit like a more relaxed version of the gladiator, as this energy does not fade over time, but does have a cap.I've not got any talents to show off for the Monk just yet, but here are some mostly-final ability concepts instead: The monk builds energy toward these abilities as she defeats enemies. Expect to see the first of those posts in November.The Monk has less of a focus on equipment and instead grants the Duelist several utility-focused abilities that are based on physical technique. V2.0.0 will likely have a few blog posts as I make progress on implementing the new hero. This doesn’t mean that the quest rework is never going to happen though, I’m just readjusting my priorities and will likely get to it in 2023 instead. I also heavily implied a new hero would come this year back in the ‘Shattered Pixel Dungeon in 2022’ blog post. We’re now in the last quarter of 2022 though, and I suspect people would much rather see a new hero release next. SHATTERED PIXEL DUNGEON SMITH UPDATE
I was originally planning for the next update to be v1.5.0, and include a rework to the blacksmith’s quest. I want to mostly focus on the Duelist, so don’t expect as much side content as in previous updates, but I’m sure that there will be some amount of smaller additions and adjustments.
I don’t yet have any specific plans for other content in v2.0.0. Like all the other heroes, the duelist will have 2 subclasses, 3 armor abilities, and 26 talents! The new hero in v2.0.0 will be the Duelist! The duelist will be able to use weapons in ways other heroes cannot, through charge-based special abilities, and other mechanics via her talents and subclasses. The next Shattered update will be v2.0.0, which is going to focus almost entirely on adding a new hero!
Anti-Magic now applies to your own rings and artifacts. Telekinetic grab now grabs all items at a location, not just one. Ring of Wealth now gives better equipment when highly upgraded. Hero select now has a new interface for landscape/desktop users. The blocking enchantment has been redesigned. A new short guided tutorial has been added at the start of the game. The Berserker has been been partially redesigned, berserking is now manually activated. The Sandals of Nature have a new active ability based on seed effects. The Ring of Arcana has been added, it powers up enchantments and glyphs. A new lore system has been added, with 30 pages of lore text to find. v1.4.0 is releasing 90 days after v1.3.0, which released on July 6th, 2022.
