I'm now offering an adjusted cosmetic-only Prestidigitation spell as a Patreon exclusive. If you're interested in supporting the development of Dawnsbury Days with additional money and/or want to make a tint, sound, music or critter during battle, please consider www.patreon.com/dawnsbury!

The new expansion will expand into new biomes, such as this swamp fight against a worm-that-walks! (Classic dungeons will still be there, though!)

There are now more than 100 (!) mods for Dawnsbury Days on the Steam Workshop. From rules tweaks to additional ancestries and classes to total overhauls like Roguelike Mode. I am super happy and grateful that you find modding Dawnsbury Days to be worth your time! 💛

In Dawnsbury Days, you may now stack consumables in your inventory. I hope this will make alchemists more fun to play! (It also works for non-alchemists. Feel free to make a pile of heal scrolls.)

From next build, Dawnsbury Days will have the ability to remap keyboard controls, and so almost complete my list of gamedev technical best practices at hudecekpetr.cz/gamedev-tech...!

Even on higher levels, one of the most satisfying situations, I've found, is where you can fire off a big aoe Heal hitting both a bunch of friends and a bunch of undead at the same time, such as in this Four-Leaf Clover battle, where an enemy ghost-ship pirate attempts to board your vessel!

I plan for all creatures who have a spoken line in the Four-Leaf Clover to have a full-size portrait! I think it could make the cutscenes feel that much more alive! For example, check out this, a treant that has been hit by a lightning and it broke his mind! (art by @nacraova.bsky.social)

The last update, "rules fidelity, magus, and archery update" finally fixed some of the most-often reported issues with the champion's reaction. It felt good to finally cross this many things off the to-do list! Now, it's time again to return to high-level content for the Four-Leaf Clover.

I'm announcing the development of a level 10–15 expansion to Dawnsbury Days called "The Four-Leaf Clover." Experience high-level second edition battles in high-stakes encounters as you work to evict the starborn from our world! Patreon helps fund development: www.patreon.com/dawnsbury (1/4)

Baraquielle is a minor character in Dawnsbury Days, but her artist @nacraova.bsky.social likes drawing her a lot, so modder Pixie1001 added the angel to her Roguelike Mode mod where she appears as a haughty but tsundere ally. If we ever get a dating sim spinoff... XD (VA @celestielleva.bsky.social)

Large creatures will soon be able to squeeze through tighter spaces. Currently, there are no monsters who would need this, but it would already be useful now for savage animal companions!

An upcoming rules fidelity and archery update adds Starlit Span magus and Expansive Spellstrike, among other feats and improvements. So you will be able to do things like shooting an arrow of fireball or arrow of sleep!

I've had trouble finding a bug tracker I would like for Dawnsbury Days. True bug trackers like Trello or GitHub felt too heavy for a mostly single person project. I used a text file for a long time, and lately I've been happy with a To Do app. So here's a view into what I'm thinking about!

One thing I'm proud of in Dawnsbury Days, but which is rarely mentioned in feedback, is that most monsters have a speaking role. Whether it's a kobold, a dretch or an intellect devourer, it's probably going to speak. I think this adds a certain life to the encounter! (pictured: Soul Eater by Lesiu)

Upcoming build will bring a post-encounter loot report to story mode campaigns. I figured instead of always telling the player "You received loot. Check the Party tab to learn more," I could show it immediately, and thus also reduce the amount of repetitive text.

Archibald of Dawnsbury uses the Dawnstaff, his major staff of abjuration, to dispel a barrier in his way. You, too, can now get a wizard staff and name it as you like — perhaps with a more imaginative name than what the hero of Our Point of Light selected... Art by @striga.bsky.social 💛

Adorable fanart of Annacoesta defeating a puny kobold! 💙

Makes rules judgments and interpreting minutiae of in-world fiction in the rules enforcement system is one of my favorite parts of making Dawnsbury Days. I'm very fortunate to have fans willing to send bug reports along the lines of "well actually, you can't banish *native* outsiders". 💛

I know that Dawnsbury Days' chief strength is as a tabletop-faithful combat simulator. But it still makes me super happy when I sometimes receive positive feedback about the story and characters as well! Thank you everyone who submitted feedback💛!

Magical staves will come to Dawnsbury in the next update! With special powers for the "Staff Nexus" wizard. Though a proper wizard would insist you call their thesis by its full name, "Staff Nexus: Improvements Upon the Symbiosis Between a Spellcaster and Implement."

There's a new modded encounter named "Just Cross the Bridge" with the description "This 5th-level encounter features nothing suspicious whatsoever." I wonder... ^^; steamcommunity.com/workshop/fil...

At a certain point as you go through levels, automatic weapon names may become somewhat unwieldy, or you may be with your weapon long enough that you think it merits a personal designation. From the next update, you'll be able to personalize your equipment this way!

Some spells, such as Maze and Cast into Time, can now temporarily remove your enemies from the battlefield into "removed-from-play" zones where their actions are sharply limited.

"All is one, one is all" is a level 8 spell from a non-core setting book. It redistributes HP and positions among your party members. It's unique, it's not famous, and it's beyond the current level cap. I implemented it anyway, to have fun, and also as a bit of a vanity project to show off :)

The next build includes "incarnate" spells where you materialize a temporary pseudo-creature to assist you in combat. Here we see the party's sorcerer invoking the echo of an archmage from ages past to send a storm of magic missiles at her enemies. (Archmage art by @striga.bsky.social, thank you!)

The feedback form at forms.gle/4XQABBVcD5BD... already received 600+ answers :O <3 That is an incredible amount of response! So far whenever I polled the audience, on Patreon or Discord, I received about 20 or 30 answers and made decisions based on that.

I took a break from concepting and spent some time on more character content! So from next build, Dawnsbury Days will have Dispel Magic! I think the implementation is quite faithful, too!

Happy new year 2026, everyone! I'm looking for everyone's thoughts on what you would like to see in Dawnsbury Days next. I'll be happy to hear your thoughts here or in the survey form at forms.gle/5XH1i3KyAGZU...

Aw, thank you! I'm happy you liked the game! I wonder what Anna is thinking about... (cc voice actor @xitsjuststephvo.bsky.social)
