DUSKWorld is now in closed beta!
That's right, the time has come for you to help test DUSK multiplayer, if you've got the HUP for it.

What is DUSKWorld?
DUSKWorld is DUSK multiplayer, simple as that!
Right now it's just FFA DM but we'll be adding modes like TDM, CTF and more as time goes on.
Is it a separate game?
No. Right now it's a separate app (for closed testing purposes) but when DUSK is released, DUSKWorld will just be a separate .exe you launch (but still part of the main game package)
Does DUSKWorld cost anything extra?
No.
Does it have microtransactions.
Fuck no.
Will I be killed repeatedly by players better than me?
Probably.
OH AND BY THE WAY
The DUSKWorld Beta is COMPLETELY FREE if you get a key.
You don't even need to own DUSK to play it.
Just sign up at Discord.gg/NewBlood and mash that F5 key on your inbox.
You'll get an email that looks like ***THIS***
We hope you enjoy this early shot at DUSK multiplayer and if you do?! We hope you'll give us some of your hard earned money either RIGHT NOW... or when DUSK is released - and yes, we'll have more info on that... SOON™ :Lorelei:

Episode 2 First Look
Duskdudes, Dudettes, lend me your eyes and ears!
Here's your first extended look at DUSK: Episode TWO from PAX Australia:
https://youtu.be/QsW_2lji_jQ
As you can see, things get a lot more hectic for the DuskDude as he ventures into THE FACILITIES - but worry not. With new powerups (like ones that basically turn him into Spider-Man) the forces of evil (and new enemy types) are no match for his MASSIVE HUP.
Episode 2 is already better than Episode 1 and Episode 3 is looking to be even crazier.
BELIEVE THAT.
But what's all this about a MULTIPLAYER BETA? Yes, it's happening. As we speak.
We're going to be opening it up to everyone who currently has DUSK: Episode 1 but if you want a chance to get in sooner...
We are a small company and we've never done anything like this before so...
please bear with us as we roll out DuskWorld to you! You will all be hupping in no time.
We hope that DuskWorld multiplayer will help tide you over until the full game releases and we hope to see you all there on our DuskWorld dedicated servers... SOON™
Chur. :Ankh:
THANK YOU.
DuskDudes & Dudettes,
It's now been just about two months since we welcomed you to DUSK.
And the response has been, to put it lightly, OVERHWHELMING.
We feel overwhelmingly beloved and universally accepted by YOU.
The very people who we've been making this game for.
But this was no accident...
DUSK (and the reception to it) is the result of the tireless work of the New Blood QA team and the consistent communication with the New Blood community.
And you know, we originally wanted to put out Episode 1 MONTHS ago.
But we wanted it to be ready.
We wanted to make sure it was ready.
To make sure it was everything you expected it to be and everything we wanted it to be.
And if the response is any indication... then it is just that.
And now, after a damn near universally positive response from our family, friends, the critics, the lurkers and YOU - we are finally, completely 100% confident that DUSK is not only worth your time, but your money.
But... THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.
The expectations are higher than ever...
But thanks to your support, we're more committed than ever to exceeding them yet again.
YOU are the reason this game is what it is.
YOU are the reason we wake up every day and want to read the comments.
And YOU are proof that if a game developer sets out to make the game they say they're going to make, and communicates with their players honestly from day one?
Then the world can in fact be all sunshine and rainbows and rockets and shotguns.
So... to the thousands of players in the New Blood community already knee deep in DUSK, and the tens of thousands waiting for the full game and beyond...
We just wanted to say,
THANK YOU.
Dave, David, Andrew and the New Blood family<3
P.S. hup hup... hup hup hup... SOON™
PLAY. DUSK. NOW.
THAT'S RIGHT.
Pre-Purchase DUSK and you can play ALL of Episode 1
RIGHT. NOW. https://youtu.be/Flduv46BT78
You know - we could have put out Episode 1 MONTHS ago.
We thought about it. But we wanted it to be ready.
We could have asked for your money WEEKS ago when we put out the new trailer.
But we wanted to MAKE SURE it was ready.
Now, after a damn near universally positive reception from our family, friends, the press, the lurkers and YOU - we are finally 100% confident that DUSK is worth your time and money.

So here it is! Well, PART of it.
And YES You will be granted access to the FULL game when it launches... SOON.
Pay $20 now, pay $20 then. It doesn't matter. That is the price for DUSK always and forever.
ANY AND ALL FUTURE UPDATES WILL BE *FREE*
In the meantime: please enjoy DUSK: Episode 1 and spread the word like a shotgun blast if you love it as much as we do <3
VERY wrong.
3 Episodes. 33 Levels. Endless Mayhem.
But we know what you wanna know.
...Where are we at in DUSK development?!
Well, Episode 1 is done. It’s like done done. Super duper done. Polished and QA’d to high hell by the New Blood QA team (hi guys) and ready for you. If there are any bugs or the game drops below 144 FPS at any time they will be flogged. Believe that.
Endless mode is done.
VS. Multiplayer is a thing that works. We call it DuskWorld. We’re bringing it to QuakeCon.
Because that seems like the place you take a game like this, right?
You should come play it there.
The first pass of Episode 2 is nearly done. It will be iterated on and polished until it’s as ready as Episode 1. Then we’re on to Episode 3. Wheeeee…
And after that? Well I guess the FULL game we want to LAUNCH is DONE. Woah.
Three full single player episodes.
Endless mode with 3 arenas (one for each episode)
Arena style online multiplayer.
BARRELS of fun
See what we did there? :Lorelei:
Do we have a release date yet? NO. Because if you follow New Blood then you know we will only and always say SOON™ until SOON™ is NOW. But it won't be much longer - we promise. :D:
ANYWAY... want to spread the love like a shotgun blast?
Or just show people this:
https://youtu.be/tsu9uDMlIMM
And tell them to wishlist THIS. http://store.steampowered.com/app/519860/DUSK/
We promise you'll be able to play it... SOON™
And a link to a new track from Andrew. OH YES. https://youtu.be/9u9Kf7qTUXY

PAX East LIVE Demo
BEHOLD DuskDudes and Dudettes!
We're back with another LIVE gameplay demo from the PAX East 2017 Twitch stage:
https://youtu.be/lqa7iuMelo8 During this demo both myself and the DuskDude himself David Szymanski show off some endless mode, campaign and a whole lot of the silly new options we've got available for you.
For any and all questions we HAVEN'T yet answered - be sure to ask us here on the Steam forums or at Discord.gg/NewBlood where we're always... LURKING
http://store.steampowered.com/app/519860/
The current plan for DUSK development is to finish up a solid version of Single Player Episode 1 (we're about 90% done with it) and then send that build + 2 endless levels out for previews + testing by YOU! (Steam builds will automatically update)
While THAT is happening we've already begun work on MULTIPLAYER which we're looking to have in a playable state before we move on to Episode 2 development!
As always - we'll post all major updates here and in Discord.gg/NewBlood :Lorelei:
Until next time - stay filthy... INTRUDERS.
TwitchCon 2016 Gameplay Reveal!
