- Dev Die-ary: A Look Back - 10 April 2026
Hello everyone! Today, we decided to step away from petting frogs polishing code for a moment to look back (and a glimpse on what is to come!). Throughout the history of Die in the Dungeon, we've gone through hundreds of features, art tweaks and mechanic reworks. Join us in looking back on that process: 🐸 A Very Early ConceptThe story of Die in the Dungeon didn't start in an office, but in the chaos of a gamejam: very limited time, tons of caffeine and our desire to create something new. We love deckbuilders and roguelites alike, and the goal was to put our own twist on those genres. The first iteration of the game was done in just a week: no relics, no potions, not even a map; just 1 character, 4 dice and 5 enemies (including a boss!). For fun, here is a very early concept from those frantic days: The idea of insects as enemies and some UI elements did not come from this first mockup,…

The demo introduced new dice, enemies and relics, along with a key new feature—a map that lets you control your character’s path using dice. We believed this feature would add a new strategic layer, but thanks to your feedback, we realized we’d missed the mark. Here’s what we learned: - The map required too much focus and slowed down the gameplay. - Map choices fe…

- Die in the Devblog vol.2 - 22 May 2024
Hello, long time no see! We've missed you! We've got quite a bit of news in the meantime! And at the same time, we'll show you what we've been working on lately and what we're preparing for the final release. Let's start with saying thank you for your support during the release of Origins! We’re happy to see that many of you are still playing it (more than 2000 reviews with 95% positive, crazy!). We've received tons of useful feedback, which we've immediately started processing. But Origins is just a part of our journey. And you'll see its new chapter very soon! But let's go step by step... New Systems So, if you remember the previous versions of our game and the prologues, they were quite linear. Our cute frogs fought battle after battle, they had no time to rest, and their attempts to pass through the dungeon was a bit too similar between them. Something that we wanted to add for a lo…

- Balance & Cameos Update: New Version 2.2.2 (91.3) - 22 December 2023
Hello everyone! Origins is officially three weeks old... time sure flies! Now that the dust has settled a little, we wanted to address a few issues here and there to make sure the experience is as smooth as possible for everyone, including newcomers. This update introduces multiple changes to the balance and difficulty of the game. The aim is to make the initial and middle phase of runs less punishing, giving more autonomy to players to build their strategies and decks. Also, we added a bunch of new relics with references to other indie titles we enjoy, have fun unlocking them! Here's the full changelog: - Added five new unlockable relics! These relics can be unlocked by reaching a certain number of floors during your run. The relics are Heroic Backpack, Shapeshifting Fin, Miner Hat, Monkey Paw and Pachinko Balls.
