Din's Champion has about 1,200 wishlists so far. That's a start, but obviously I have a lot of marketing work to do. If you haven't yet, I would be grateful if you would wishlist Din's Champion at https://store.steampowered.com/app/2...Dins_Champion/

Since I'm doing weekly Din's Champion builds for our testers, would there be any interest in me making our patch notes live even though it's not out in Early Access yet? https://store.steampowered.com/app/2...Dins_Champion/

The life of an indie game developer is doing a little bit of everything. Today I worked on networking/multiplayer, text, icons, model editor, game code, emails, and achievements. At least I didn't do any tax or website stuff, that was earlier in the week.

It looks like Valve is improving a bunch of things for game demos on Steam. Since Soldak has always made demos for our games, that makes me very happy. https://steamcommunity.com/groups/st...11502162971563

I have the Linux version of Din's Champion up and running now. I was hoping I could get it running again before Early Access, but I didn't want to promise anything before it was actually working. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2...Dins_Champion/

I really do think Din's Champion will have the most dynamic world of all of our games, which I think is a big deal. I haven't written a blog in a while maybe that's what the next one will be about.

While testing Din's Champion today, I determined that objects that release explosive gas are indeed very dangerous, especially when you forgot you spawned a few more nearby.

The latest Din's Champion build has now been approved by Steam! We are still a little ways from Early Access, but that's one less thing to worry about, which is a huge relief. #gamedev

I think exploding gas is more fun in Din's Champion than the exploding barrels, and I love the exploding barrels.

My dev computer decided to stop doing anything at all on Wednesday. Luckily after swapping in a new power supply, everything seems to be working again. That was a stressful 2 days waiting for the replacement to see if that was the only problem though.
