We at Turning Wheel are turning to the community to take some thrilling Barony: Blessed Addition screenshots!
We're looking for 10 fantastic screenshots that show Barony at its best. We'll be picking out the best of the best and using them to help show off the game on digital storefronts.
What's in it for you?
The top 20 submissions will have a name of their choosing [within reason!] added to Barony's name randomizer for all to behold!
The top 10 submissions will receive a free copy of the Barony Soundtrack on Steam!
That's right! With the launch of the Blessed Addition, we're also launching the Barony Soundtrack, and Soundtrack Bundles for you to enjoy.
For your screenshot to qualify, gather screenshots from the Blessed Addition Beta. Simply submit it through the Steam Screenshot tool at 1920x1080 resolution.
Title the Screenshot as "Community Screenshot Challenge".
Comment on your Screenshot the name you would like to be added to the name randomizer.
You may submit several screenshots if you like. If we pick multiple of your screenshots, you may specify an additional name for the randomizer, but you'll still receive a single copy of the soundtrack. We'll be picking shots that make the game content look diverse, interesting, fun, beautiful, and exciting.
To improve your chances, show great cooperative play, take shots of more than just the new content, and avoid shots that spoil some of the game's bigger bosses.
You're welcome to try some hot cheats to get a leg-up on the screenshot pile including the following:
/noclip - good for generally putting the camera wherever you want - and if you press q or e you can raise or lower the camera for taking cool shots!
/thirdperson - detaches the camera and leaves it stationary in place, while you can move the character away
Again, first and foremost, catch the game at its best!
Thank you, and have fun! Happy lich hunting! [ 2018-03-20 07:02:08 CET ][ Original post ]
Barony is a 3D, first-person roguelike with cooperative multiplayer that brings back the cryptic and intricate designs of classic roguelikes such as Nethack and melds them with RPGs like Ultima Underworld, System Shock, and Daggerfall. Challenge is the calling card of this hard-boiled dungeon-crawler.

The Story So Far
Barony tells the story of an undead lich named Baron Herx, who terrorized the town of Hamlet in a previous life and is now holding out in a vast subterranean complex known as the Devil's Bastion. As a single hero or a group of adventurers, it is your mission to descend the depths of his abode, confront him in his hellish lair, and destroy him forever. Whether you will simply meet your doom in the dungeons as many have before you or rise to victory against the Baron and his hellspawn is ultimately up to you.
