Goodness golly, it's finally real! Welcome to Dominocalypse! Trevor's power went out, and he probably wrote something for this, but isn't able to post it, so I'm posting instead... Thanks, "The Team"
- Small Delay - 10 August 2026
Hey Friends,There's been a slight delay of Dominocalypse's release as we await the final approval of our build from Steam. We're unsure exactly when it will actually go up for sale and we're almost literally on the edge of our seats waiting, as we know all of you are!We'll let you know the moment we know more. Thanks so much for your patience, and we can't wait for you to play the full game!-Trevor and the Team
- Release Delay + Major Demo Build Update - 3 July 2026
G'mornin friends, enemies, and Boot Wizards alike!A couple very big nuggets for you today. First, the "bad news" (though we don't really see it that way):We've made the tough call to push back the release date to an indefinite date in August. There's been so much amazing feedback, both positive and negative, that's given us much deeper insight into what works and what doesn't in Dominocalypse, and we want to take the fullest possible advantage of all of that input. With only a few weeks out from the originally planned release date, it wouldn't have been possible to give it the refinement we know it needs.We'll let you know immediately once we have a concrete date in mind, but for now just know that we're doing all we can to make this thing as special as we know it can be!Now the good news: A new demo build is available now! There are too many updates to list, but highlights include:Tons…
- Time for ~Science~ 🔬 Daily #3 Now Live! Today's Feature: Physicist - 18 June 2026

Ever find yourself in the precarious position of needing to play just one tile to fill that one little pocket before your big move? Tile Split has you covered!Tile Split is the only way in the entire game to play single tiles on the board, which allows you to fit your plays into little nooks and crannies!It also comes equipped with the Phase Tile Mod by default, allowing for very tight, crafty plays that take full advantage of board space.The daily is live now, so take Physicist for a spin!

- KA-PLOOEY 💥 Daily #2 Now Live! Today's Feature: Pyrotechnician - 17 June 2026
Happy Day 3 of Next Fest and Day 2 of... Dailies! (Say that ten times fast.) Today's daily showcases...Pyrotechnician completely changes up how scoring works, and without paying attention to his unique mechanic from the artifact Arsonist you will be in big, big trouble. With Arsonist in your inventory, any time you make a play where no tile/crate is destroyed, you do not score! Uh oh!But wait, there's more! During any play you make where any tile/crate is destroyed, not only do you score as usual, but you get big boosts to your turn mult for every single tile/crate that is destroyed!More than perhaps any other build, Pyrotechnician thrives on setting up that one big move with things like carefully-set up strings of dynamite tiles. Just don't accidentally set them off early! There's no rewind feature... yet. 👀If you've been enjoying the demo or just like what you see, spread the word! W…

- Free Demo Out Now! - 4 June 2026
It's kind of hard to believe I'm saying this but not only is Dominocalypse a game, it is now a game that can be played!!

- Holy snot, we have a store page! - 17 April 2026
Goodness golly, it's finally real! Welcome to Dominocalypse, "the game that makes dominoes fun!"This has been a labor of love over the past year-and-a-half and I'm so excited to be able to share it with you soon! The roguelike genre is pretty saturated and there are so many amazing options out there for you to enjoy, but I think Dominocalypse brings something really fresh and itch-scratching to the scene, particularly with the puzzle elements.I'd be downright tickled if you hit follow/wishlist for this bad boy and stay up to date on what's happening. We're very loosely targeting June for release, so there shouldn't be much of a wait.More updates to come, and I simply can't wait for you all to experience this little creative nugget from deep in my soul parts.Thanks for reading, and remember... Live Free... or Tile Hard.-Trevor and the Barely Cohesive team
