Patch 1.31 - Galactic Frontier Kickstarter Event!

Today is an auspicious occasion for us at Team Teal. We are starting a kickstarter campaign to raise money to fund Galactic Frontier, a game we have been working on alongside Damascus.
To celebrate this we decided to create an event in Damascus, with the items that get dropped having a space theme to them. The event is simple. Around the world are 3 types of enemies of various levels and killing them will drop the cosmetics. But we didn't stop there. Because we felt you deserved more so we actually created a 4 level dungeon which is actually a bunker, a lost remnant of a world long forgotten. Here you will encounter 4 kinds of robotic enemies, the likes of no one in Damascus has seen before. And at the end of the dungeon is Decimus of the Machine Plague, a multi combat boss with some spicy mechanics and juicy drops. We'd really appreciate the support with the Kickstarter. We love what we do and getting Kickstarted would allow us to dedicate more time to making games. Here is a link to our teaser trailer! Here is a link to our discord Here is a link to our Kickstarter Page Here is a link to our presskit Much love and happy grinding!

Christmas Event!

Christmas has arrived once again and boy do we have a present for you guys. We are releasing Damascus' 20th skill today! Jewellery has arrived just in time for the festive season. So get on down and get crafting!
As well as Jewellery we have our classic Christmas update for you guys. The elves have been busy in Damascus however yet again they seem to be missing some of their presents. They've been hard at work at various places in Damascus and presents have been popping up all over the place.
There have been 2 activities that reportedly drop presents. Once a player has travelled a certain distance a present will be dropped at their feet. The other method is more active. When players use an Anvil, Furnace, Fletching Table, Mechanics Table, Explosives Bench, Cooking Range or Jewellery Crafting Station, there is a 1 in 16 chance that a Christmas Present will appear in your bank. These Christmas Presents have lovely new cosmetics inside them. There are also a range of 64 items that can be opened from the Christmas Stocking with 6 of the items being a different coloured sweater. 4 new cosmetics have also been added to Shalk's Cosmetic Store. The Ugly Sweater has replaced the Chicken Head, Mr Snowman has replaced the Witch Hat, the Snowy Christmas Ring has replaced the Rainbow Man and the Snowy Ring has replaced Super Luci. Merry Christmas and happy grinding!

Patch 1.23

Friends list baby! It is a truly momentous occasion. The long awaited friends list has been added. You and your mates will be able to have some quality banter in game without having to be in the same vicinity as each other. With this comes a revamp of the chat menu as well as the ability to ignore other players which essentially mutes any player that might get on your nerves. The friends list is rather simple. You can either add a friend through the social tab or you can right click on another player and add them through the "Add Friend" option. When both you and your friend have added each other you will then be able to see when they are online and gain the ability to private message each other. You can message your friends by clicking on their username in the friends list when they are online (green for online, red for offline). The chat has also undergone a rework. There are now 4 different categories of chat. Game chat (which shows in game notifications), public chat (which shows chat from players in their vicinity), private chat (which shows a player's private messages to their friends) and all chat (which shows all of the above in one chat). Players can also use the "tab" key to switch between their current private chats with their friends. 5 new cosmetics as well as 3 previous popular cosmetics have been added to Shalk's Cosmetic Store. The Chicken Ring has replaced the Ring of Wool, the Shield of Love has replace the Reindeer Antlers, the Cat Ears have replaced the Goblin Outfit, the Ghost Outfit has replaced the Candy Cane Sword, the Big River Staff has replaced the Demon Tail, the Cloak of Romance has replaced the Krampus Mask, Super Luci has replaced the All White Cape and the Jon Suit has replaced the Ring of Christmas. Their prices can be found below: Chicken Ring - 500 CC Shield of Love - 1000 CC Cat Ears - 1500 CC Ghost Outfit - 2000 CC Big River Staff - 2500 CC Cloak of Romance - 4000 CC Super Luci - 4500 CC Jon Suit - 5000 CC Happy grinding!

When opening a present you have a chance to get some unique Christmas items!

Multicombat Update! - Patch 1.19

Multicombat has arrived to Damascus! A new island has been discovered to the north of Cactorio and the Guilds have taken to conquering new land. However enemies do not respect the honourable 1 on 1 combat that we are all used. It is the survival of the fittest. The guild is having a bit of trouble subjagating the inhabitants of the island. They discovered a broken down portal where the Demon Prince and his Lieutenants are and urgently need assistance. There are said to be grand rewards for slaying the Demon Prince and even his Lieutenants have a few themselves. They have also found some Corrupted Rocks which can be mined to get Demonic Shards. Below are the Demon Prince and his Lieutenants:



Notable drops include the Demonic Scimitar, the Demonic Crossbow and the Demonic Staff. These weapons are charged weapons. This means that they only output damage if they are charged. You charge the weapons with Demonic Shards. Attacking with a charged weapon uses up 1 charge. Their drop rates can be found below: *These are the drops for the Demon Prince. Each Lieutenant drops 1 of these weapons chosen according to their attack type at a drop rate of 1 in 1000. 4 new cosmetics have also been added to Shalk's Cosmetic Store.

Patch 1.18 - Halloween Event!

Halloween has arrived in Damascus. We were cutting it late but it is finally here. In preparation for Halloween Damascus has been getting ready. We have a special Halloween event put together involving Stealing and Farming along with 4 new cosmetic items at Shalk's Store and a new dungeon for those combat madlads to explore.
So, the Halloween Event. What is it? All the enemies in the game whom you can pickpocket have extra Halloween Seeds in their pockets. There is a 1 in 8 chance of pickpocketing 1 of these seeds. You can then use them on farming allotments to grow pumpkins! After an hour a pumpkin will be ready for harvest which you can open to get this year's Halloween cosmetics. These are the items and the relevant drop rates: A dungeon has been found above Rogue's Rest with 2 new bosses. Dead Eye Jones and The Jealous Witch are the 2 new bosses each with top tier armour drops with Dead Eye Jones dropping the Ranging Fiery Armour and The Jealous Witch dropping the Psychic Cultist Armour.

Dead Eye Jones

The Jealous Witch

Shalky's Cosmetic Store has gotten 4 new Halloween themed items. The Pirate Bandana has replaced the Pineapple Staff, the Ghost Outfit has replaced the Cane, the Ring of Slime has replaced the Ring of Coins and the Bearington Outfit has replaced the Jon Suit. Happy Farming!

Due to the large amounts of items that have been destroyed in Damascus the vale between dimensions is weakening once again. Demons have begun to exert their influence on the world. Players have started noticing that trees, rocks and fishing spots have been tainted by the demons. Odd items have been appearing if players mine rocks, chop trees or fish at fishing spots. These are the "demon" items which have a 1 in 8 chance to drop. In order to stabilize the vale between dimensions we must destroy these demonic items at a Destruction Altar. We have discovered that destroying these items at a Destruction Altar results in a variety of new items to be appear. These are the items and their relevant drop rates: 1/2 Red Firecracker
1/4 Green Firecracker
1/8 Blue Firecracker
1/16 Purple Firecracker
1/32 Black Firecracker
1/512 Crown of Nebuchadnezzar
1/1024 Cowboy Hat
1/2048 Cape of Destruction
Our calculations show that it shall take 4 days of destroying demonic items in order to stabilize the vale. Players will still be able to destroy these items even once the vale is stabilized. Good luck to you all. God bless Damascus! There are also new Permanent Demons u can fight that will drop a new rare pickaxe and new rare axe.
