- Din's Champion released! - 25 August 2026
After a long Early Access, we finally released our next game, Din's Champion! Get it now while it's 20% off during its 2 launch weeks. Din's Champion is a sidescrolling 2D action RPG in a highly dynamic fantasy setting. The world waits for no one; as you are exploring and collecting, or crafting and building, the forces of darkness are amassing power and executing their own designs. Left unchecked, they will unleash devastating consequences. Will you find strength in numbers, building a massive town with an army of dozens or even hundreds of NPCs, gathering enough resources and resilience to survive whatever crisis comes your way? Or will you strike out alone against the evil forces, relying on your own skills and strength to prevail?

- Mutating for fun and profit in Din's Legacy - 26 November 2019
Din’s Legacy wasn’t what I was expecting. It hit its full release in August, and I pushed to write about it, only to wind up with such mixed feelings about it that I sat on writing about it until now. It’s an action RPG easily compared to Diablo, with a focus on endless, randomly generated worlds and dynamic events. These almost all mean “kill some monsters”, and its supposedly active AI factions and events never seemed to do anything in my games. That’s a difficult pill to swallow for others who, like me, had assumed it would be as lively as Soldak’s excellent starship extravaganza Drox Operative . But the mutation stuff? That I like. (more…)
