Greetings everyone! Exciting times are ahead. It's been quite a journey. We are announcing today that the Teaser for DROVA will soon be delisted from Steam. And there's a simple reason for that: October 15th. That's the day when DROVA will be released. Originally the Teaser was a demo to pitch to publishers. To communicate our vision. And so much has changed. Not only did we find a Publisher and Partner for DROVA, the vision itself evolved. While the full game is still true to the vision, it got so much more. And is technically on a completely different level. The Teaser is pretty much outdated. In many ways. And people keep confusing it with the actual game. Which is why we have decided to take it down in the coming days. Thank you, everyone for believing in us. Just2D

Welcome to our Devblog - an update series on the development of "Drova - Forsaken Kin"! In the last update video, we talked about two entirely new areas, the completion of the first chapter of the game, as well as our approach for armor animation! All of the previous episodes are available as well, if you're curious. Chris will be speaking German in the videos but we're always offering English subtitles! [previewyoutube=X_1u_84YQ3Y;full][/previewyoutube] This devblog is not really new, we have uploaded almost 20 episodes on our YouTube channel already. But some of our players approached us on our Discord server and pointed out how little of our development we share on Steam. So we're here to change this! You can expect a new update every month. :)
Two more days before the end of the third Season!
Play it now before it's too late. If you're up for a competition, try to beat JustNexo who's currently first place. Or you want to solve some riddles on a laid-back quest? Talk to the NPCs in the hub area and find out about their problems! Here's a gameplay of our former gladiator Bady who can show you a few tricks on how to climb the scoreboard: [previewyoutube=xHRqqs3Nf2U;full][/previewyoutube]
Solve a quest and become immortal!
Go on a paper chase before Thursday night to craft a talisman and you will find yourself mentioned in the main game itself as well as in the credits! Help a cute couple, play songs on a Lyra and draw symbols onto your talisman. You don't have to be the first to solve the paper chase for these rewards! As long as you solve it before Season 3 ends and message the code to Thomas on our Discord, you'll get the rewards.
It's that time of the year again. Time for another season of "Drova - Arena"! This time with even more cool prizes and new features. All you need to do is launch the Teaser, select "Drova - Arena" within the launcher and click "Play".
The Arena is a spin off focused around combat and player feedback to test out system for our upcoming RPG "Drova", which we will start developing in early 2022.
175 Prize Pool!
First place claims 100, second place gets 50 and third place receives 25! Registration is super simple, pick a username and play. Easy-peasy.
You Can Become A Part Of Drova!
Always wanted to become an NPC? Or design a weapon? Or maybe a boss fight? Whoever finds the treasure first can become a part of our final game "Drova - Forsaken Kin"! Be the first to find the code we have been hiding in the new game version and claim the prize! Send Thomas the code on our Discord. Since we are making an RPG, we value roleplaying higher than performance in combat! That's why we decided to hide some "quests" in the Arena hub for you to find.
Now get into the ring already!

A big update for Drova is coming your way - on August 24, 2021, were releasing the first season of Drova: The Arena. Thats already in two weeks!
What is The Arena?
Even an RPG needs a good combat system, thats why we decided to showcase our current combat system in The Arena. We would like to test new weapons, new enemies and other features in an approximately 10 minute long arena fight. The final game will still be an RPG. On one hand we want to show you our current progress as well as collect and review your feedback to make Drova as good as we possibly can. On the other hand, we dont want to leave you in the dark about the state of Drovas development and share our passion about the game with everyone. On August 24, 2021 were launching The Arena. In season one, over the course of four weeks, we will show the revamped spell system, new enemy types and basic enemy AI.
How does The Arena work?
There will be an update for the Playable Teaser which enables you to choose between playing the Teaser or The Arena when launching it. The plan is to continuously improve our games features in cooperation with the players over the course of multiple Arena seasons. This will not be possible without your feedback. Take this chance to participate in the development of an RPG! We gladly accept any feedback that you might have. There will be a form to fill your feedback in but you can also contact developers directly on our Discord. Basically, after you equip yourself at the merchant, we throw you into an arena and you will have to defeat the incoming enemies, much like the gladiators did back in the day. In doing so, youll collect a highscore, for example, for the time needed to complete The Arena. This way you can compare yourselves with other players and you can even win a prize.
Theres a prize?
Thats right, you can win two prizes. After all, we want to give you something in return for giving us feedback.

First place will live on forever! Together we can work out how exactly you want to be immortalized in our final game, be it as a quest NPC or just a statue. On top of that, you will also receive the exclusive title "Gladiator" on our Community Discord server and you will be mentioned as Gladiator in the credits of the final game!
In addition to the main prize, another prize will be raffled among all participants. What exactly itll be will only be revealed once The Arena launches, so stay tuned ;)
