Patch 2.1.2, Imp Plushies & New Worker Skin
Were pleased to announce that a dark pact has been sealed with the fastidious creators over at Makeship to bring your loyal imps to life in a dastardly soft new form. Bear witness and tremble Underlord!
You can place your orders now for this devilish, yet delightfully squishy, Imp plush over at Makeship, make haste Underlord as it is made to order and shall be available only for a flicker of time before it is consigned to history. You have but 21 days to place your order! Should you wish it you could also acquire the fabriced visage of Medi from our latest endeavour Galacticare. Perhaps, should the whimsy take you you may find a way to combine them into the horrifying Medi Imp?!
Dont miss your chance Underlord, grab them now at Makeship!
Woven magics seal the pact and allow our mana to form a new soft and squishy vessel. As of today all Underlords can now choose to summon Plushie Workers into their dungeons instead of their regular blood and bone workers.
This Worker Skin is unlocked automatically for everyone, for use in any non-campaign game mode.
As with our prior minor updates were continuing to adjust some of the visuals in the game. This is a minor side-project as WFTO is well and truly into its maintenance phase of life. The Sanctuary has had its lighting & shadow overhaul, the room generally always had a moody tone and we were keen to preserve and enhance this. Outside of the major change with the Altars light the changes are subtle but hopefully give the room a signature sinister feeling.
The Hero Sanctuary meanwhile needed much more work, neglected because it doesnt appear in any official levels and thus only appears if youre playing non-campaign modes as an empire dungeon theme it didnt really get much love. We've looked to rectify this historic oversight, giving the room it's own identity other than "Blue".
The rituals that are cast also had a lighting & shadow overhaul so they should now light up more of the room when being cast. Another area of interest was the default worker skin which now benefits from a more modern shader which was implemented for the Plushie Worker. The underlying art is still the same but the way it appears is updated, more consistent and respectful of in-scene lighting and aligned with the intended appearance even when team coloured.
This change should make the worker fit into the environment a bit better while still standing out enough that they can be seen.
A few weeks ago some of our development imps were at a mighty meeting of malevolent minds known only to the underworld as Gamescom. It was there that we spied our evil brothers in arms Myron Games and their unique VR twist upon the quintessential evil-em-up.

If you're the kind of Underlord who's longed to take the slapping of minions and building of dungeons into your own evil hands then perhaps this is the experience for you, as at long last you can god game with your own hands!
As you no-doubt know we love this most evil of genre's dearly so it's always a pleasure to share fellow developers embarking on their own crusades for the good of all evil. We hope you'll give them a wishlist!

Tired of invading dungeons? It's time you build your own!
Do you feel you are in a slump? Monotonously disembowelling evil guys in endless quests for gold and a slightly better pair of boots? You are starting to wonder... are heroics really your calling? Welcome to the War for the Overworld!
War for the Overworld is a Dungeon Management Game that employs your favourite aspects of the RTS and God Game genres. You play an all-powerful, malevolent Underlord, long banished to the Aether. With unrivalled dark power and an insatiable desire for bloody conquest, you will arise once more, and reclaim your realm!
In your absence, the Underworld lost its way. It became feeble and afraid of the Empire of the Overworld, which grew strong and boldly comfortable in its quiet retirement from evil-slaying. Carve out your dungeon from the soil and stones of the Underworld, and build dozens of unique rooms to attract a myriad of creatures to your halls to work and fight for you.
In addition to your faithful followers, you have destructive spells and powerful rituals to cast upon any unsuspecting goodly Hero (or rival Underlord) who dares to breach your unhallowed halls. With your unmatched dark powers and mighty army of bloodthirsty minions, you are ready for your War for the Overworld!
