We have been working on this update for a long time and we are happy to share it with you. Check out the details from below. New Backgrounds are here! This was something that majority of our players were asking for so we finally did it. From now on, you will be playing at 9 different backgrounds among all levels. We have divided backgrounds into 3 categories: * 3 Normal levels backgrounds (Village, Forest, Ruins) * 3 Hard levels backgrounds (Village, Forest, Ruins) * 3 Secret levels backgrounds (Village, Forest, Ruins) Not only this, you can also use these new backgrounds at the Level Editor too! So go and create your very own levels with brand new images. Level Editor is getting ready for Nintendo Switch & Xbox…

- Doughlings is Coming for Nintendo Switch and Xbox One - 17 May 2018
Let us dive into the topic right away. Doughlings: Arcade is coming for Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. And the best part is: it is sooner than ever. 🙂 A New Home for Doughlings: Arcade As you all know Doughlings: Arcade has been released on Steam couple of days ago. We got pretty good feedback from players and in the upcoming days and weeks, we know things will be much better. But now a new journey begins. We have been working on obtaining developer kits and trying to figure out the development process of consoles. Yesterday, we have finally managed to play Doughlings on Nintendo Switch and it felt just like home. With its great portability and design, Switch owners will experience Doughlings: Arcade as it should be. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F32328032%2F2d8c6e9d8447db5e811b592b78d99bf7e09dcdbd.jpg And Xbox One version is also in good hands, thanks…

After months of dedication and coffee consumption, it feels so great to see the end. But we know that it is just a new beginning. From very early days of the development, we always wanted to achieve one thing: a new approach to breakout and brick breaker genres while respecting their core mechanics. As we see more players experience the game at the preview version of Doughlings, it is clear that we have successfully fulfilled that task. But we did it with YOUR help. Doughlings: Arcade has been in the closed beta stage for almost 2 months now. During this period, we have learned many things by observing testers and getting feedback from them. We have: * Improved in-game tutorials…
- When Bricks Come to Life: Targets - 20 April 2018
This week we want to to give you an insight look into the targets and the design approaches behind it. Let's begin. I thought this game was a brick breaker? It is, but with some new stuff. First of all, you are not hitting bricks. Most of your targets are folks of Doughlings and they all have different sickness levels and results. You will encounter some non-organic targets as well but those are also not the bricks you have seen before. Like Morpheus and his personas, we wanted to create something new that hasn't been tried before. By this design approach, we have taken the full control of the player and added some "unpredictable" mechanics into the game. Let's us explain it with the Killer. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F32328032%2F6d9d7498e8c4ba1cb514b77af1fd9efc778e4651.jpg The Killer is one of the most unpredictable targets in Doughlings: Arcade.

By today's standards, the sound and music are also one of them. Without the right tune and sound effects, it is nearly impossible to capture the player. Today we will talk about how we have approached this side of Doughlings: Arcade. Yupppiiiiiiiii The story of our game is all about the Doughlings folks. They have been poisoned by a meteor crash and now each one of them has a different personality. To show the player how they really feel, Serkan Özay, Creative Director of Hero Concept decided to record unique sounds for every Doughlings in the game. And the result is just hilarious. Check out the example sounds from below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOjjWnE-…
- Doughlings: Arcade – Control is Everything - 10 April 2018
When you design a game, one of the first things you do is to decide how players will play your game. Will it be the mouse, keyboard+mouse, keyboard only, gamepad, or maybe all of them? It may not seem like an important question at first but when you dig in, it just becomes the most critical part of the process. What others offered? https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F32328032%2F73cbfc3a5875e67190448fd1a317f47fd6d654a6.jpg When we first started working on Doughlings, the first thing we did was to check out all other breakout and brick breaker games since the Arkanoid and Breakout. There are many successful games in this genre and to be honest, control options they offered so far didn't age that well. The reason is of course the simplicity of the game itself. You just move stick and bounce a ball, how complicated it can be? Well, it can and as a dev, we have t…
