- Update 2022-12-03 - 3 December 2022
Hello everybody! Long time no see! Here's a new patch to soothe everyone's hearts! Winter Sale It's no secret to anyone that Winter Sale is coming up on Steam. Many, many games are going on sale. I am not going to say which game is going on sale, but a certain game is going on sale this Christmas 😉. So keep your eyes peeled. I am theoretically not allowed to talk about the Winter Sale, like it's an industry secret? Everyone knows about it, though, and I'm not releasing any specifics. Bugfixes - Changed Omnicrown so it no longer goes out of screen (thus causing the player to not be able to close the popup) - Fixed Tooth of Insomnia not being consumed when entering the Somnium - Fixed the King vs Marceline event appearing in runs even after you defeated either of them - Fixed the Captain Stashton fight showing you the same cutscene multiple times - Fixed a VFX remaining on the screen whe…
- Small Updates and Mobile Anouncement - 17 October 2022
Hello! Today I bring a small, quality of life update and news about the porting of Tilefinder to mobile. Mobile Porting I am finishing setting up the Google Play App and will release it to Early Access as soon as possible! I have thought about the pricing and monetization of it for quite a while and I have reached a conclusion: Tilefinder will be free* with ads for Android. The Android version will be called Tilefinder: Roguelike RPG and will be a slightly lighter version of the PC one. The PC release of Tilefinder will always have priority over the mobile one. The PC version will also have PC-only exclusive features and will receive updates faster and more frequently. Patch Notes - Finishing the tutorial no longer redirects you to the menu. It immediately starts a new run (people thought the tutorial was the whole game...) - Item rarity glows should now be more visible - Fixed some UI…
- Looking For Your Ideas! - 20 September 2022
Hello, everyone! I'm looking for more ideas on anything game-related! Reply to this thread or talk to me on Discord if you got any cool ideas! There hasn't been an update in a while, since I've been working on porting the game to mobile and translating it. That's all for now! Cheers, Dave
- Update 2022-09-01 (Silence, UX, Bugfixes) - 1 September 2022
Hello, everyone! Here are the patch notes for the current update: Silence! Many enemies are now affected by Silence (not being able to cast spells). Silence interrupts magic spells being cast and prevents some spells. To offset this, some enemies (mostly bosses) are now immune to Silence. Enjoy! Quality of Life - Good spells no longer display the "!" (friendly fire) indicator - Updated several UI elements Bugfixes - Fixed special spells being offered when not supposed to - Fixed green spikes wrong height offset - Fixed rewards screen sound effects not working properly - Fixed units remaining crouched if their spell was interrupted - Fixed some wrong icons for certain items Let me know as soon as you find a bug! Cheers! Dave
- Update 2022-08-24 (UX, Boss Rework, Many Bugfixes) - 24 August 2022
Hi! In the past week I've been working on identifying the most frustrating bugs in the game and I managed to fix 4 causes of crashes! This is all thanks the all the people who have reported these crashes and bugs! So, keep it up! Whenever you find a bug or crash, send it to me ASAP with a screenshot and a log file, which can be found in the game folder/Assets/Data/Logs and pick the latest log file, corresponding to your gameplay session that crashed. Without further ado, here's the update: Update 2022-08-24: Something Dark Looms Over the Fields... Pumpzilla is awakening. I reworked the first phase of the first boss since it was the first one I ever made and the design was a bit outdated. I feel like it should be a much smoother experience now. Also, I slightly changed the dialogue of Pumpzilla to make room for the next update, which will contain a more detailed Pumpzilla lore interactio…
- Update 2022-08-18 (QoL, Bugfixes) - 18 August 2022
Greetings! You guys have reported tons of bugs this week! But fret not, I have fixed most of your requests! Damage Type Icons Spell descriptions now have icons for damage types! That should make descriptions a bit easier to read and understand damage types at a glance. I will add more of these in the future! UX - All enemies now display their mana (if they have mana), regardless if you have a Mage on your team - Adjusted the Silenced effect to end on turn end instead of the next turn start - Adjusted the position of several traps - Adjusted some misplaced UI parts - Adjusted Fox and Mage misplaced in the turn order UI Other Added a new Mage spell, Flame Dagger, which scales with DAMAGE.

Hello, adventurers! Here are the patch notes for the latest update. UI - Improved the UI by giving the X button a cute little box of its own :) - Added a checkbox for toggling auto-equipping spells. - All player units should now appear grouped together in the combat order UI. Bugfixes - Fixed an issue with the Golden Shrine not recalculating upgraded item stats for the character - Fixed special spells binding at the Lecture Table. This should fix some crashes. You can now make Fiery Presence permanent, but not Soul Drain. Also, you can't make Tuberculosis permanent. You sicko... - Fixed a bug allowing any character to equip any spell - Fixed a bug with rewards after combat giving duplicate items - Fixed a bug causing some special spells to appear as loot rewards (e.g. Summon Candle, Tuberculosis) - Fixed elemental resistances causing characters to have 100% or more elemental weaknesses…
- Update 2022-08-07 Hotfix - 6 August 2022
Hi! This is a crash that used to happen when you had auto-end turn enabled and used all your resources to kill the last enemy. This would cause the game to crash (essentially because the game tried to end the turn twice #programming). Hope it's the last we've seen! Cheers! Dave PS: Let me know if the game is a bit laggier now, I added extra logs. If it's too laggy, I'll fix it in the next update!

Hello, fellow party killers! Today, I bring some interesting new updates and, as always, lots of bug fixes! Friendly Fire Warning You asked for it, you received it! You will now have an indicator displayed when targeting a spell if there is an allied unit in the way. Hopefully we will see fewer fox deaths after this update. Quality of Life Updates - Improved various UI elements - Renamed "Quit Run" to "Give Up" - Reworked healing after death: your character is now healed to 20% of max HP; previously, it split the remaining HP of the other character evenly among both characters. The new mechanic is more intuitive. - Polished some aspects of the game a little bit. Balance - Ranger's Shoot Arrow now deals 50% less damage at point-blank (at range 1). Bugfixes - Fixed some crashes in the inventory - Fixed resistances/amplifications not being saved on the characters - Fixed some special items…

- Update 2022-07-21 (Achievements, Buffs and More) - 21 July 2022
Hello and welcome to one of the more interesting patches for Tilefinder! Here are all the additions, changes and fixes for this patch. Buffs and Debuffs You can now see what buffs and debuffs a unit has on it! The active buffs are always displayed as icons above the unit's HP bar. To further inspect how many turns there are left and what the buff is called, you can Inspect (Q) the unit and you will see the active buffs next to its description! This has been a wanted feature for a long time and now it's finally in the game! Steam Achievements This patch also brings Steam Achievements! There are currently 20 achievements you can unlock by playing and progressing through the game! Note that this feature is still a bit experimental. I use a third-party app to trigger achievements.

- Update 2022-07-12b (Hotfixes and Logs) (Steam Post) - 14 July 2022
Ahoy! I know this is a double-post, but apparently, now I need to always post the patch notes at the same time as releasing the build. On release, I had a lot of complaints from players about bugs and crashes. As I said, I aim to have a bug-free experience as soon as possible. Logging I added a form of logging in this version. I also added code guards to multiple actions in the game so that we can catch errors when they happen and log them IMPORTANT: If the game crashes, definitely report it and attach the log file, which is simply a '.txt' file created by the game that will tell me more about what caused the problem. To find the logs, go to the game folder then to "assets/data/Logs" and find the latest log (should look like 2022-07-14_02-34-51.txt). Bugfixes - Fixed sound and full-screen mode not being saved. - Fixed some more issues with the game resolution (full-screen is still in be…

- TIlefinder FAQ - 12 July 2022
