I've thought for a long time that way too many games don't take enough creative risks. It's likely the brain drain from all of the recent game industry layoffs and the huge uptake of generative AI usage is going to make that worse. Fight this by buying some indie games!

Rumor is that the Battlefield 6 developers want to have 100 million players. While we are wishing for unreasonable things, I would also like Din's Champion to have a 100 million players.

Over the weekend, we play tested Din's Champion a bunch & I wrote down over 70 lines of notes. I'm still going to count that as a win.

In the next build of Din's Champion, you will be able to slope platforms to make stairs.

Interesting historical tidbit: when I launched Soldak over 20 years ago, one of the reasons why I choose to go with our own custom engine is because our main 2 choices (Unreal & id Tech) costed over $100,000 per game!

The next Din's Champion build already has a ton of balance changes: phase in of loose solids, higher gem values, more silk fiber drops, and more quests marked as high stress.
