- Damsel Leaderboards are now Universal!! - 12 August 2019
Greetings Agents, Last week we welcomed a whole lot of Xbox and Switch players to the Damsel community, and plenty more are still to come. Don't forget the special handshake when you see them on the street! Since earlier in the year, the Damsel leaderboards have been universal, that means that all scores from all platforms hit the same leaderboard and you can compare yourself to anyone who is playing, no matter how they get their vampire killing fix. You're not yet able to link to the same profile across multiple platforms, but it's something we're willing to look at should the demand be high enough. We're also keeping an eye on our different platforms to make sure that the gameplay is fair across different environments, if it looks like Switch for example is at a disadvantage because of how the game is playing there, we will spin it off onto its own leaderboards. Finally, now that we'r…
- Release Notes 1.1.2.484[MAC] - 18 July 2019

For more immediate help jump in to the Damsel Discord at https://discord.gg/g2Rke34 and leave a message in the #support channel. -Meg

Heck, why not jump into the Discord anyway and say hi to the awesome little community we have in there. Finally, fear not Mac players, your update is imminent. Like, imminently imminent. Promise. - Anthony
- Release Notes 1.1.2.475 - 8 July 2019
Greetings Agents! We've just sent a new version of Damsel out into the world! This version is just a quick bug fix update to address some issues we had with achievements not unlocking / unlocking too much. That is all sorted now and your achievements should unlock correctly as well as being trackable via the community page. Also, I couldn't help myself, don't tell the producer, but I slipped in two additional small tweaks to the game. Firstly, your current Red Mist rank will be displayed next to the timer during challenge missions, this allows you to see how quickly you need to beat a level to secure that coveted 'A' ranking. Also, now when playing a Hothead mission, your skull combo will start automatically, this ups the challenge a little bit, but it makes the experience just that little more entertaining. That's it for now, keep your eyes peeled later this week for the release of all…
- Release Notes 1.1.2.458 [WINDOWS ONLY] - 28 June 2019
Greetings Agents, It's been a long time between bites but we're back with a HUGE update to Damsel! This time we're releasing episode 3 "Executive Incentives" and it's our biggest episode yet. Bigger arenas and tougher challenges await, as well as a continuation of the story of Damsel's fight against Red Mist. You'll also notice that the game has undergone a complete overhaul in terms of looks! We wanted to really lean into our comic book visuals and much has been done to show off the work of our brilliant comic book artist David Fjalarsson (@DavidThorArt on Twitter, seriously, follow him) PLEASE NOTE: This update may cause some players to lose their game progression. We know this sucks, but it was an unfortunate side effect of the massive update (Which now includes multiple game slots - speedrunners rejoice!). Please forgive the inconvenience. Finally, we'd really like to extend a since…

- Damsel Update 1.0.3 - 4 December 2018
Greetings Agents! We've released an update for Damsel. This update mostly contains behind the scenes work for expanding Damsel to multiple platforms, and we're excited to announce that the game is now available for both Linux and macOS. If you do experience issues on these new platforms, let is know and we'll take a look! We've also made some changes that should make the game more accessible for some of our players. We've added some tweaks to the bomb defusal minigame which include marking the bad wires and rumbling the controller on the good wires. We hope these changes will help out those with certain types of colour blindness. We've also added an option to the game that swaps out the default font with OpenDyslexic. We hope that this helps some of our players read the comic panels a little easier, though we understand it's not a fix-all for everyone. If there's a particular change or…
- Damsel Update - 1.0.1.309 - 7 November 2018
Greetings Agents! We've released an update for Damsel. This update addressess some balance issues that we think will make your experience with the game a smoother, more entertaining one. The biggest change is the removal of most of the minigames completely. For some time now, these minigames have been a fairly divisive and we ultimately couldn't make them fit in a nice way with the rest of the gameplay. The core of Damsel is speed and precision, and these minigames weren't contributing to that. The other big change is the increase in Damsel's starting health from one hitpoint to three. One hitpoint was causing frustration for many players and making combat more forgiving means fewer restarts and more time completing missions. Damsel is most enjoyable when you get into the flow of movement and combat and too many deaths took away that opportunity. Here is the complete list of changes. Re…

- Damsel Update - 1.0.0.308 - 2 November 2018
Greetings Agents! We've just pushed out a new update that addresses a minor issue with the hostage hacking minigame. The booby trapped hostages should now only appear in episode two and beyond. :) Anthony. P.S. For those anxious about the rate we've been pushing out fixes, don't fear, our programmer (me) will me back in the studio after a quick post PAXAUS detour and will be getting fixes and improvements out on a much more regular basis. Don't forget to leave any issues you're having in the forums so that we can look into fixing them for you all :)
- Damsel Update - 1.0.0.307 - 22 October 2018
Greetings Agents! We’ve just pushed out a quick update that addresses a bug in the computer hacking minigame that may have made it more difficult to complete than intended. Hacking should be a little easier to manage now :)
- Damsel Release Date Announcement - 11 October 2018
It is with great pleasure that we announce that Damsel will be leaving Steam Early Access on the 19th of October! On release, Damsel will feature two episodes, "Market Research" and "Supply Chain Management" with episode three, "Executive Incentives" following closely after. The episodes contain all the great gameplay you've enjoyed during early access with the addition of beautifully illustrated comic cut-scenes that take Damsel on her adventure into the bloody world of the corporate vampire. At the same time, the weekly challenge will continue on as the "Damsel Dash" and the stakes will be higher than ever. From launch, the winner of the weekly "Damsel Dash" will be in the running to win prizes, including exclusive Damsel merch that will make you the envy of everyone you know. Lastly, we'd like to thank everyone that has downloaded and played Damsel during Early Access for all the val…
- Damsel Road To Release Announcement - 20 August 2018
We are excited to announce that Damsel is entering the final phase of Early Access and will be transitioning to full release on Steam soon. We would love to thank everyone that has supported us so far – those who have reviewed, streamed, given feedback, played and enjoyed the game, you all rock! We also want to thank our friends and family, without who there wouldn’t even be a game to play. It has been a long journey of over three years and we are excited for this moment to come. As part of transitioning into full release we’re increasing the price of Damsel. We believe the full price represents great value, and you won’t be disappointed with the content the game has to offer. From 10th September, the regular price of Damsel will be USD$19.99 (or your local equivalent). If you have Damsel on your wish list (or even if you don’t) and want to grab it for its current price of USD$9.99 - no…
