Things keep getting delayed unfortunately, although I'm still planning to release Alpha18 at the end of April or very early May. I was hoping that hooking up crash reporting through the Steam API would be easy, but I just can't get it to work. I might have to use a back up plan in the form of the Google Breakpad library or my own, old crash reporting scripts. It's something I need to get done before I can roll out a testing build to Steam. Last week I added a slightly unrelated feature. Minable resources aren't spawned at world generation anymore, you have to discover them by researching geology (to be fair, the game actually only spawns them at that point). The are currently three levels of the tech, and maxing them out, which will give you large amounts of iron and gold, will require a significant mana investment. Overall, I think it will add some needed balance to the game, and the ores can be generated around your base in a convenient way. Also, it will help me add more ore types later on, which has to do with a major gameplay feature that I'll announce soon. The campaign mode is mostly under control. Before writing this, I've been at war with Alderyk the Keeper, whom I had retired just an hour earlier. The last major fix I had to add involved stopping undead from traveling and, as a consequence, killing themselves during daytime. I still need to do some balancing, and fill the maps with more content, but that's easy and pleasant stuff compared to my chores discussed in the first paragraph!

When you control your minions the game changes into a classic roguelike, with turn-based and very tactical combat. You can also play as an adventurer and assault dungeons made by you or other players.
Dungeon management
You will dig deep into the mountain and build dozens of rooms, corridors and traps. Your minions will train and produce weapons and armor. Prisoners will be tortured. You will research new technologies like alchemy, beast mutation and sorcery.Roguelike mechanics
The world is simulated on a very detailed level. Creatures use equipment and consumable items. There are dozens of special items, spells, attributes and special attacks. You can cut off heads and limbs and blind or poison your enemies. If you're not careful with fire, you can burn an entire forest or even your own dungeon.Large, procedurally generated maps
In your neighborhood you'll find castles, villages, other dungeons and special locations. Slay heroes, dragons and witches for their loot. Every game you play will be different.Online map sharing
