- Patch Notes - v.1.04 - 1 November 2025
Halloween is over and it's time to put the decorations back in the attic. This was a small update. Here's a quick rundown of what changes you should expect: Hot Spot now has a working description Added a little effect for the Jackpot and Hot Spot tiles during bonuses Fixed new weapon sprites Added error catching for the Switch tile I also updated the scoring mechanism. It was improperly rewarding elite kills as a score of 50, instead of 500. The score formula is now correctly applied as: - Maybe now someone can claim my spot at the top of the leaderboards. That's all I've got for now, but I'll be back with more soon! - unbreaded

It’s that time of year again — the air’s getting crisp, pumpkin spice is on the shelves, and things are starting to get a little weird around here… So, in honor of my favorite holiday, I’ve brewed up a small (but powerful) cauldron of new content to celebrate Spooky Season!This update creeps in with three brand-new tiles:Hotspot – Common tileCrush – Common tileDitto – Rare (treasure) tileYou’ll also find four fresh weapons:Shield (Rare)Hammer (Common)Scythe (Rare) Slingblade (Rare)And of course, what’s Halloween without a costume?

- Post-Next Fest Bug Fixes and Updates - v.0.3.5 - 17 June 2025
Hey everyone! I just updated the demo to v.0.3.5 to fix some complaints and bug reports that came up during Steam Next Fest. Read on to see a list of the changes made! I'll start by saying thank you for a great Next Fest! It was my first time participating, and it was amazing to see everyone playing and experiencing the game for the first time. There were over 2,000 new players that jumped into Tic Tactic during the week! A new and improved Equipment PanelMany of you may have noticed that the Equipment Panel was… not the best. It was functional, but there were several issues with the overall presentation. I fixed some of the formatting issues and added an indicator that highlights the currently equipped weapon. In addition, I made it so that updating your equipped weapon is updated in the save file, so you can restart a fight without having to re-equip your weapons. Updated Leaderboard…

- Tic Tactic HAS ARRIVED! - 5 December 2024
At long last, the day is here, and I could not be more excited! What are you talking about? I’m talking about Tic Tactic, of course, an anti-chicken propaganda piece disguised as a roguelike deckbuilder. In Tic Tactic, you play as a duck, the lone survivor of his clan, who returns to his ancestral home to find it overrun by the chicken army. He sets off on a quest for revenge, and for answers. The combat system is built around matches of tic-tac-toe, loosely based on the give-and-take nature of sword duels. It’s a simple system, at least to start: you place tiles on the board to form a combo (a three-in-a-row), which deals damage according to the value of the tiles used. Once the combo is formed, the attack is launched, and the combo is cleared from the board. However, as you continue through the game, you are given the opportunity to add new tiles with new mechanics and functions, whic…
