Dear players, We are proud to announce that we have just released a major update of Dawnmaker, including the long-awaited undo button, a whole lot of new content, and characters!
Start a new game of Dawnmaker today and meet Sibille, Cassian and Tha. Each has a specific starting deck and starting roster of buildings, as well as a difficulty indicator. Sibille is the one you know if you've played the game already: she likes fields and wonders. Cassian is more of science guy: he likes activation buildings and spending science to generate luminoil. Tha has a passion for harvesting and destroying buildings! She's the hardest to play with and should present a nice challenge for those looking for increased difficulty.

Special offer!

To celebrate the launch of this major update, we are discounting Dawnmaker for the first time! Buy the game during the next 2 weeks and save 20% off its cost. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2749100/Dawnmaker/ We hope you'll enjoy this new content! As usual, let us know what you think about Dawnmaker here on Steam's forum, by pressing the F8 key anywhere in the game, or in our Discord server. We're looking forward to your feedback. And now, on to our longest changelog yet

Changelog for the Characters Update - 2024-10-07

Gameplay

• Added 2 new characters with their unique starting deck and roster. Choose the character you want to play with at the start of a run. Win a game with one of the two first characters to unlock the third one!
• Added buttons to refresh the buildings or cards in the Airship market. You can refresh each content once per region, for a cost of 5 gold.
• Fixed activations of the Aerostation, Ruins and Shipwrecks not triggering adjacent "on activation" effects.
• Put more ruins in early regions to allow for more opportunities to discover buildings.

Quality of life

• Added an undo button! You can roll back all the way to the last action that revealed new information, by pressing the button in the bottom left corner or by hitting Ctrl + Z. Actions revealing new information or including some randomness cannot be undone: drawing cards, refreshing the market, exploring a ruin or a shipwreck, etc.
• Added a dialog to confirm that you want to start a new game when you already have one going.
• Improved text rendering for cards with long rules.
