How to Enter!

To participate in the Hackathon, create and upload your mod to CurseForge and then upload a short video to YouTube, Twitter, or TikTok introducing your mod to the Dwerve community! Here are a couple of mod ideas to consider:

Reskin the current sprites for a turret, enemy, or Dwerve to create a new look
Craft a new gameplay experience with an overhaul to turret and enemy stats
Forge a new turret with a complete reskin and restat of a current turret or trap

Make sure to tag @HalfHumanGames and #Dwerve for your video upload! The video can be short, even a minute or two. Use it to show off your cool creation to others and let them know where to download it. Add a link to your video on your mods CurseForge page and vice versa. [olist]

How Well Choose Winners!

While we encourage you to share and promote your mod, this is not a popularity contest. Peter and I will select our favorite mods based on the criteria below. Your mod does not need to meet every single criteria, we encourage you to focus on one or two:

Creativity: Did you use the mod tools in a unique way to create a compelling experience?
Game design: Did you improve upon or create a brand new gameplay experience?
Comedy: Did you make a funny mod that makes players laugh and have fun despite balancing?
Aesthetic: Did you create your own beautiful sprite/animations for a turret, enemy, or Dwerve?

Happy crafting, Modsmiths! We look forward to seeing what cool creations you come up with. May the best tinkerers win!

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...
