Greetings and salutations everyone! It's been 9 long months since we initially released Towertale on steam. The game has changed a lot since the initial release. The most notable change is that we added a new Co-op feature that lets you play with your friends up to 4 players!

New Co-op Content:

You can now team up with your friends on all game modes, Story, Arcade, Free and Boss Rush.

A new storyline and ending.

We added a new storyline for the Co-op mode. It can be played by yourself or with friends.

Remote Play Together

The game is compatible with Steam's Remote Play Together feature. Which means, you can play co-op with your friends online! Though, it is recommended to have at least 30mbps of Upload/Download speed for it to be playable. If not, try setting the the host's limit resolution to 480p and the client's options to fast.

New Features:

Scenario Selector

After implementing the Skip function last patch, our next step was adding the Scenario Selector. You can now play/replay any parts of the game so long as you unlocked that scenario!

The Gallery

Another thing we wanted to add was the gallery. There are a lot of great Art from the story mode, we wanted a place to collect them and let the player view them at any time.

A new main menu art and music

With these all new features added, we couldn't resist to put a new main menu art and music to the game.

Filipino and Dutch Localization

The game now supports Filipino and Dutch translations. Currently, portugese and Czech language are being worked on by our discord members. More will come hopefully in the future. If you want to help out with localizations, please join our discord server: https://discord.gg/sqTmHvk

Nintendo Switch Release

It's been a long time coming but we finally got a switch release! After we released on steam, we couldn't meet our sales goal. We wanted the game to be played by a larger amount of players and we believe Nintendo Switch was a good fit for the game. Hopefully the sales will be enough to carry us over the initial stages of our next project. As, up till now, we still haven't paid up our debts. All of these updates are actually part of the things we added to the Nintendo Switch. But I told my publisher that I didn't want our steam customers to feel left out so we opted to bring the free update to steam too. You can watch the steam release trailer here: https://youtu.be/aDaRXgxMPwk

Price change

With all of these changes that we made, we feel that Towertale as a product is finally complete. It was discussed with my console publisher that we would raise the price of the game to $9.99. Hopefully that will mean that everyone who bought the game before this update will feel that the game has raised its value. Just putting this out there for transparency.

Final words

Lastly, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who played the game. This was our first commercial release and we really learned a lot from it. And I promise you that our next game is going to be really better since everyone in the team has leveled up their skills. We hope to bring you more awesome games in the future!

The Tower is known to have been created by an ancient being. Legends say that whoever defeats all of the guardians and get to the top will have the right to be granted the ultimate wish - "The ability to change one's fate". In the past 100 years, many have tried and never been heard from ever again. Until one day, four brave souls came forth and challenged their fate.
