@reginatown.bsky.social
, wrote our rendering tech for Dungeons of Hinterberg, designed a few of our dungeons, wrote most of the dialogue and made our cash flow spreadsheet. Hoping to talk a bit more about the dev side of things here. :)

Duskpunk, a Citizen Sleeper-like with shades of Dishonored and Blades in the Dark is out now! I played it prerelease and I think Sleeper fans will get a kick out of playing something similar but different…

Fun statistic: "Dungeons of Hinterberg" has an extraordinarily high % of people playing it on Steam Deck rather than PC (judging by % of reviewers that mostly played on Deck).

One element of the Dragon Age story that I want to emphasize: If the team had known in 2021 (after the single-player pivot) that they'd ship in Oct 2024, it'd be a much different game. Instead they were always under the impression they had to finish in 6-12 months, which led to all sorts of problems

Lost For Swords ⚔️ is my love letter to roguelikes and card games. To deckbuilders and dungeon crawlers. To strategy and tactics. It is Slay The Spire meets Into The Breach with a pinch of Diablo 2. If any of that resonates with you ➡️ it's out on Steam now!!!💖

That car ride is one of my favorite scenes in DoH. I miss writing Travis - he's a great excuse to write something pretentious and he always felt real to me, even if he's such a 00s hipster that he might be a bit of an anachronism.

, saw Hinterberg on your stream this weekend. Don't know if this has been on your radar, but we just released a free DLC on every platform (including Playstation which launched an hour ago) that lets you play a prequel as Renaud, i.e. the guy who "looks like Blade" :)

Dungeons of Hinterberg Episode: Renaud DLC Impressions
Dungeons of Hinterberg is a fantastic game. When it dropped on Game Pass in July last year I completed the whole thing (100% achievements and all) over the course of a week. The game is an exciting blend of action, adventure, and puzzle-solving set in the scenic Austrian Alps. You play Luisa, a lawyer feeling stuck in a rut in her day to day, venturing into mystical dungeons hidden within the picturesque town of Hinterberg.

Sweet sweet data! 📊✨ The authors mention this as well, but hopefully this helps devs make more informed decisions and publishers determine whether they're being competitive. We can only push for a stronger industry when information like this is accessible + visible!
