Dwerve selected for PAX Rising Indie Showcase!
PAX Rising showcases indie games that PAX believes have the chance to rise about their modest beginnings, by growing as a company, establishing a fan base or pushing the industry. PAX East takes place at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center from Thursday, April 21 through Sunday, April 24. If you want to attend PAX EAST and hang out with us in person, you can purchase badges here.
In case you missed our last Kickstarter updates, here's a summary of what we've been working on this year so far!
Awhile back we gave Sla's Shop, where you use scrap to upgrade your turrets and traps, a big UI makeover (these icons are placeholder):
We also designed all of the turret & trap upgrades! Each turret & trap has its own upgrade tree with a total of 100+ upgrades! Check out the actual upgrade icons (adding in soon) that Enchae just finished:
We also implemented all of the artifacts, which give Dwerve abilities, some active and some passive! Check out the artifact icons:
Here you can see the Warhammer Smash in action:
Translators have localized a majority of the game to Spanish, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese!
All of the world maps are done for each biome! Now we're implementing the world map in-game. Here's the overworld map of the above-surface locations:
And here's a preview of the Fungi Caves biome which is inside the mountain:
We've spent a lot of time adding and improving art assets! We want the game to look amazing! Check out this Gnobling Shrine:
We've also been giving the character portraits a makeover: Esben (Dwerve's Grandpa)
Karvemup the Butcher
Witch-Queen Vandra

Dwerve is a tower defense dungeon crawler RPG. It tells the story of a young dwarven tinkerer that adventures into dwarven ruins to unearth the lost technologies of the ancient warsmiths: turrets and traps, the only weapons that can protect the dwarves from Witch Queen Vandra the Wicked and her army of bloodthirsty trolls and monstrous creatures.
Key Features
- Tactical turret-based combat involves making strategic decisions about which turrets and traps to build and where.
- Upgrade your arsenal with over a dozen turrets and traps, each with it's own unique upgrade tree.
- Discover powerful artifacts: an arrow-blocking shield, dashing boots, a bouncing boomerang, a ground-shaking hammer, and more!
- Story-based campaign. Unravel the history of the dwarves and the trolls in a story that features diverse characters and an unpredictable plot!
- Explore ancient dungeons in multiple biomes, each with hidden secrets, mysterious puzzles, and interesting lore!
- Fully dynamic lighting. Adventure through dimly lit dungeons that come to life with dynamic lights and shadows!
Backstory & Lore
In the massive hollow mountain of Mount Crowcrest, there once lived a great nation of dwarves. The dwarves discovered power stones while mining deep in the mountain. They used them to power machines and, eventually, entire cities. They lived in peace and prosperity for centuries.
Over time they became infatuated with power stones and dug deeper to find more. One day they dug too deep and unleashed the Gloomdark Hordes, an army of trolls and monstrous creatures. Once the dwarves realized that trolls turned to stone in the sunlight, they fled far from the mountain and found refuge on the sunny Hills of Brekka.
Centuries passed and, over time, the dwarves forgot their traditions and abandoned craftsmanship and innovation in favor of warring and raiding. History became myth, and myth became bedtime stories. But whispers of a long forgotten darkness echo throughout the valley of the great mountain. It can be heard in the Snoring Forest, by those who dare to enter...
