Brax is not pleased with this sale.

Buy Dungeons of Dredmor at 70% off! And the Realm of the Diggle Gods expansion, or the whole collection, or just pay 70% off nothing for the just-released free expansion pack (Which Must Be Named.)

Steam Workshop Mod Support Now Available

The time to create and use all new horrifying traps, dazzling spells, and weapons of diabolical ferocity is upon us: the Dungeons of Dredmor Steam Workshop is now open for business.

Check out the Steam Workshop Here!

Create and share all new monsters, items, skills, spells and dungeon rooms!  Ever wanted an acid fireball?  How about a skill that summons Diggle mages?  A staff that explodes when you throw it and turns everyone who it kills into zombies?  Easy.  A trap that can only be disarmed by feeding it 10 gallons of Slivovitz plum brandy?  A magical pear that summons a magical orange that summons a magical apple that summons the original magical pear?  That’s more like it.

The Steam Workshop is a place designed to make it easy to find, play, and share quality custom content created by other fans.  Simply head over to the Steam Workshop page, find a mod that you would like to play, and hit “Subscribe”.  The mod will be downloaded to just the right spot, and upon loading Dredmor you simply hit the “Mod” button on the launcher and pick which ones you want to load.

Or, if you want to try your hand at your own creations, head over to Dredmod.com and take a look at some tutorials on how to craft your own!  We’ve included information on how to make and upload a mod, as well as some of the code that you can use to create completely unique content.

And while you’re at it, check out the brand new DLC we launched today – it’s totally free, and full of some of our all-time favorite fan-made content!  Also, just because we’re so excited about the Workshop, Dredmor is on sale!

Dredmor Expansion: “You Have To Name The Expansion Pack” screenshots

You have to name the expansion pack tomorrow because You Have To Name The Expansion Pack is launching tomorrow! What will you name the expansion pack tomorrow, June 5th, when You Have To Name The Expansion Pack is released?*

* Admittedly, this is a rhetorical question. Feel free to share your expansion pack name in the comments though. 

To repeat: You Have To Name The Expansion Pack goes live tomorrow!

… and if you’re on Steam, so does the Dungeons of Dredmor Steam Workshop.

Neat-o!

Let us take this moment to review the features during this super-fun review! Gaslamp Games takes no responsibility for conniptions caused by experience of super-fun.

4 new skill-lines: Defend the queen with your steam-powered mechanical might as the Clockwork Knight, discover and utilize uniformly dangerous devices as the Rogue Scientist, use rocks to kill people the way nature intended as the Battle Geologist, and be a wizard that really wishes they were a warrior, with the skill that features one of the most ridiculously over-scripted spells in the game thus far, with Warlockery.

So I heard you like skills.

Free DLC & Steam Workshop support: June 5, 2012

It’s not quite as soon as we originally expected, but you can’t rush these sorts of things. A free DLC pack is like a relationship – it’s, um … this analogy is going nowhere. But if you really can’t wait, feel free to join in on the ongoing patch and DLC beta through our IRC channel.

Patch 1.0.10 Changelog

EDIT: We totally forgot to mention that we’re PC Gamer’s Indie Game of the Year for 2011. Yeah. Oops. In celebration, we drew a wallpaper which they’re putting up at some point in the near future; we’ll host it over here as soon as they give us the go-ahead.

Gaslamp News

We have outgrown our offices, and are moving again! As previously briefly mentioned, the new offices have a spiral staircase and remind Daniel of the Ghostbusters (no pole though… yet). I interviewed for a job in this building eleven years ago, back when Black Box Games was still an independent studio and before they were purchased by EA. The thought of now renting an office, for Gaslamp, in the same building … is a little mindblowing.

I also have a giant mechanical clicking keyboard of doom now. It’s extremely noisy, and everybody else in the office hates it. I love it.

Dredmor News

Now that things are a little more organized on the Odin front, and now that our days are no longer a giant sink-hole of meetings and job interviews, we’ve found some time to finish pushing that patch out the door. A beta should be floating through the IRC channel any day now; at that point, we’ll have a week of testing, and then we will push everything to Steam, Desura, and the Humble Bundle. The current changelog is below the cut, as well as a handful of Odin teasers.

A Quick Word on Difficulty

As discussed on the, uh, “Live Design” portion of our interview on the Immortal Machines podcast back in February, Dungeons of Dredmor is going to have a difficulty level selectable at the start of the game. This should make it a bit more accessible to players both new-to-the-genre and those that play only roguelikes and love only pain.
