Dwarf Legacy Joins Steam Next Fest: A Dream One Year in the Making!


Greetings, Dwarffolk!


Exactly one year ago, I opened the Steam store page for Dwarf Legacy with more doubt than hope. In a world of hyper-realistic graphics and AAA titles, I wasnt sure if a pixel art, 2D platformer had a place in 2025. Would anyone care?

Today, I finally have my answer.


Im thrilled (and a bit emotional) to announce that Dwarf Legacy is part of Steam Next Fest June Edition! And with it comes something truly special: a one-time demo event unlike anything before!

The Demo: Not Just a Taste, a Challenge


For Steam Next Fest, Ive created a special edition of the Dwarf Legacy Demo just for you.

  • 7 Bonus Levels: Each crafted with love and grit, these levels are completely exclusive to Next Fest.

  • 1 Level Unlocks Each Day: Starting Day 1 of the Fest, a new bonus level will unlock daily. Come back every day to discover all of them!

This is your one shot to test your skills as a true Dwarffolk warrior and carve your name in the forge of legends.

Dwarf Legacy Joins the Steam Ramadan Festival 2025!

Reading Time: 4 minutes Ramadan Kareem to all players! May this holy month bring peace, joy, and prosperity to you and your loved ones. I invite you to embark on a mystical journey in Dwarf Legacy. I invite you to travel back in time and witness the grandeur of The Mountainhome before it was lost to legend.

Story of The Mountainhome


Hundreds of years ago, The Mountainhome was the heart of Dwarven civilization, a majestic mountain fortress echoing with life and laughter. It was ruled by The Dwarven King, a wise and just ruler whose leadership brought prosperity to his kin. Under his reign, the forges never grew cold, and the golden halls were adorned with the finest craftsmanship. During Ramadan, the dwarves celebrated in their own unique way, lighting the great lanterns of the mountain to symbolize hope and unity. The halls shimmered with warmth as families gathered, feasting and sharing tales of heroism and faith. In this golden age, The Mountainhome stood as a beacon of strength and harmony.
But shadows loomed on the horizon. The King received visions of an ancient curse looming atop the highest grounds. Determined to protect his people, he ventured to climb the highest peak, facing trials of the mind and heart. Guided by faith and wisdom, he managed to reach the top, but never returned. Without The King's wisdom and leadership, The Mountainhome began to crumble. Rival factions fought for power, and fear spread through the once-prosperous halls. The golden lanterns dimmed, and the echoes of laughter were replaced by whispers of sorrow. One by one, the dwarves abandoned their home, leaving behind their greatest treasure. But the story does not end there. Now, its your turn. The ancient halls of The Mountainhome await a hero brave enough to face the shadows and reclaim the lost legacy. Venture into the long-abandoned mountain, and restore The Mountainhome to its former glory. The echoes of the past call out to you. will you answer?

Ramadan Mubarak! May your days be filled with peace, and your nights with reflection.

Dev Log 1: Movement and Aiming

Reading time: 3 min When developing Dwarf Legacy, I wanted every aspect of the game to emphasize precision platforming. The shooting mechanic was no exception. Traditional twin-stick controls divide player's attention between aiming at a distant point and managing their character's movement. This approach didnt work for my game, as players needed to focus on the hazards directly surrounding the character. This challenge led me to rethink and prototype a new system.

Introducing Weapons


Playing the game without any weaponry, I found the most enjoyment in avoiding danger, jumping away from swarms of enemies, circling around them, and progressing through levels while keeping threats at bay. Once I mastered the movement mechanics, it felt natural to position the character relative to enemies: to the left, right, above, below, or at diagonal angles. This inspired the idea of limiting aiming to predefined directions.
Instead of free aiming, I clamped the shooting angles to the nearest 45 increments based on the right sticks position. If the right stick wasnt used, bullets would always fire straight up. This system felt intuitive until I introduced multiple bullets.

The Multiple Bullets Issue


I loved the concept of firing bullets in multiple directions simultaneously. Initially, I implemented a system where one bullet was always fired straight up while the second followed the right sticks input. However, this design was frustrating. Players often felt like they were wasting the upward bullet, especially when trying to aim precisely. Additionally, circling around enemy swarms became cumbersome, as players had to continuously adjust the right stick to track enemies. This friction led me to abandon the right stick altogether.

Position-Defined Aiming


To me, movement and positioning are the most compelling aspects of precision platformers. This sparked a new idea: what if aiming was entirely tied to the character's position and state? Shooting could then be simplified to a single button press. In Dwarf Legacy, the character exists in one of three states: [olist]
  • Standing on the Ground
  • Hanging on a Wall
  • Flying in the Air [/olist] I designed the aiming directions based on these states. Heres how it works with a two-bullet upgrade: [olist]
  • On the Ground: Both bullets fire upward.
  • On the Wall: One bullet fires toward the level, and the other fires diagonally upward.
  • In the Air: One bullet fires upward, and the other fires downward. [/olist] Here is how it looks in motion:

    Shooting From the Ground



    Shooting From the Wall



    Shooting In the Air



    Future of This Feature


    Simplified aiming has significantly improved Dwarf Legacy. Its intuitive, enhances the core precision-platforming mechanics, and allows for additional bullets amount upgrades by adding new directions to the predefined states. Additionally, Ive designed some enemy AI to benefit from these mechanics. For instance, enemies often hover diagonally from players, making them easier targets when the character is hanging on a wall.

    Free Demo Coming Soon


    A free demo is coming soon to Steam, where youll be able to experience this feature firsthand. Im excited to see how players adapt to and enjoy the refined aiming system. Wishlist Dwarf Legacy Now! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2426280
