First big update to Skeletery is here!

• 31 Steam Achievements have been added to the game. Can you unlock all of them?
• QoL change: increased Level 1 start currency (i.e. bones). Now it should be easy to start playing and purchase the first building.
• QoL change: added hint message whenever you have enough bones to purchase a building.
• QoL change: fixed knights health regeneration so they do not feel OP to kill.
• QoL change: added hint message whenever you try to place a building while standing in a building location.
• Fixed a bug where placing a building while standing in same location caused a falling through a map.
• Fixed bugs with audio such as humans' SFX disconnected from global audio and default sound settings set to zero.

Unfortunately, Skeletery release has been delayed.

• If you saw the game trailer, you might have known that game was planned to be released on Halloween.
• However, this is no longer the case, and the game needs more time to be polished and ready for the release.
• The release date has been moved to further date, but it is still coming soon, and the announcement will be made whenever it is ready!

Skeletery went through several updates lately, and I wanted to share that with you:

• Skeletery is part of Steam Next Fest, meaning that you can play Free Demo of the game if you haven't already done so!
• Skeletery supports Linux! We had some very kind playtesters that tested the game on Linux platform, including Steam Deck! Share this news with your Linux gamers, and spread the word!
• After some consideration, the game will be released as full release instead of early access. The game will be ready to play with planned gameplay and designed levels.
• The game page has some new in-game screenshots, and more will be added soon! I hope to create a new trailer as well that captures new levels, among other things.

Skeletery has been in progress for some time, and I'm happy to announce a new trailer & screenshots! The trailer shows the updated gameplay and the setup in which your skeleton gets to defend the cemetery. The trailer demonstrates game mechanics such as melee fights, building placement & creation, and more! Playtesting will be available soon and Skeletery will also be participating in a few upcoming Steam events, so stay tuned!
