The Last Update - Controller support, cloud saves, 6 six new branches, and lots more

Some roguelikes never cease development. Well, this ain't one of 'em.
When Golden Krone Hotel was released last October, it was absolutely a complete experience, but a handful of things never made the cut. With this last update, the game is as exactly as I envisioned when I first decided to expand it from its humble Seven Day Roguelike origins. Six new branches have been added bringing the total number of floors on each run to 27! Controller support is finally here as is clouds saves. Nine new achievements were added. Hawkers are now friendly so you don't have to tip toe around them. Several new monsters are introduced with this update including the Devourer, a vampire that can teleport to pools of blood. Other vampires now drink blood off the floor just like the player does.
The Underworld has been reworked to make it more varied, interesting, and fun. Lore is now permanently collectible and a ton of books, conversations, and even a world map has been added.
A hotel map provides the location of hawkers, chests, and bosses. New spells, new potions, and a new vampire ability are in the mix. Dozens of other changes listed below....

Have fun


Enjoy the update, let me know if you see any issues, and one last favor: please add a review to the game if you enjoyed it. The game should be going on sale within 24 hours. Thanks for all the support, my kronies!

  • Available DLCs

  • Golden Krone Hotel is a gothic horror roguelike. Fight vampires with sunlight or become a vampire yourself and sneak in the shadows.

    Your mission


    You play as Sorina Arobase, a human general made famous for hunting vampires. You're on a mission of revenge to kill Fane, the exiled vampire prince. Armed with your sword, revolver, and spell book, you must battle hordes of blood sucking foes. But first you'll be picking one of 10 disguises that will help you on your journey.

    Features


    • It's a roguelike, really! Turn-based combat, permadeath, and tough as nails gameplay
    • Fully dynamic lighting. Use sunlight as a weapon or snuff out torches to conceal yourself
    • A groundbreaking potion identification system that encourages risk taking
    • Each run requires you to play as both human and vampire, each with different strengths and weaknesses. Humans are frail spellcasters. Vampires are brawlers with super human speed and strength.
    • Leaderboard and shareable morgue files

    Content


    • 10 floors, 9 branches, and 6 bosses
    • Dozens of unique monsters
    • 40 potions
    • 20 spells
    • 10 classes

    Game length

    Golden Krone Hotel is what's known as a coffee-break roguelike. A pickup and play style allows for short sessions and the save system lets you stop at any time. Winning runs take about 1-2 hours. Want a longer run? No problem! Just crank up the difficulty setting and attempt to clear all the optional branches.

    Amenities


    Traditional roguelikes are a ton of fun, but usually come with an alphabet-soup of commands that make them tedious and unintuitive. Golden Krone Hotel has a modern, streamlined interface:

    • A very small number of controls, all of which are rebindable
    • Completely playable with either mouse or keyboard
    • Keypress hints on all buttons to help you learn shortcuts
    • Tooltips on everything
    • No inventory management!
    • Items are picked up automatically and gear is auto-equipped

    All of which results in less downtime and faster gameplay.

    Before you buy....


    Please be aware that, being an Early Access title, Golden Krone Hotel is not finished! It's lacking some of the the content, balance, and polish that will be in the full release. If, however, you're willing to play a game that's still in development and has the occasional bug, then buckle up. It'll be a fun ride.
