Fan-Creations
Hey Everyone!
We hope you enjoyed the last few betas that have been running and you're looking forward to the play sessions still to come!
We wanted to share some of the fan-creations we've received on the DwarfHeim Discord channel. There's a lot of planning that go into these structure and we're sure you'll enjoy them.
There's nothing like a good solid wall. Of course why just build a wall when you can build a Death Guantlet! As you can see, there's a clear way into this stronghold, you just have to survive the walk!
The Miner is one of the easiest classes to lose yourself in, building and expanding your assembly lines. This is next level organisation! I love that the 5 lines are uniformed and check out the sorters and splitters!
Here's another fan-made set-up. This one has clearly separated the furnaces and transmuters to either side of heir structure. A thing of beauty.
And some good old fashioned defense! The Bear Pit is great for giving you units with that extra ooomph!
Please keep your submissions coming as everyone in the teams love to see them. Keep an eye out for further DwarfHeim news and add DwarfHeim to your wishlist!
For Rock and Stone!
Over 70,000 Wishlists! Thank You!
We have more great news to share with you all!
DwarfHeim has just passed the 70K wishlist mark!
This is an incredible milestone for us and it's so exciting to see interest in our game and the DwarfHeim community increase so much!
This is wonderful news that we simply had to share with you all because it would not be possible with you, our fantastic Dwarf loving players! You make this possible and make us even more excited to bring you this great game!
We appreciate your continued support ːsteamhappyː

DwarfHeim Demo - Thank You!
What a fantastic two weeks it's been for DwarfHeim! - The PC Gaming Show, the DwarfHeim Multiplayer Beta, The Steam Game Festival, DwarfHeim Demo and a brand new trailer.
Although it was made available under unusual circumstances, a great deal of you downloaded the DwarfHeim demo.
We just want to say a massive "Thank You" to those who played the demo and moreover, those who left feedback on their experience with the single-player demo.
We want to get as much feedback on this demo as possible as this is the first time we've released a single-player experience of DwarfHeim. We know there is work to be done (we've mentioned in our previous announcement some of the things we're aware of) and we want to make sure we get as much feedback as possible to make as many improvements as possible.
If you haven't done so yet, can you please leave us your feedback? You can tell us your thoughts in the discussion forums on Steam or by just clicking this link here
Finally, thank you all again. You've shown us a great deal of support and we truly appreciate it. We can't wait to show you what's next for DwarfHeim!
See you in the Ale House! Ross @ Merge [previewyoutube="FRxlNFuq1cM;full"]
Steam festival demo - Back by popular demand
Hi everyone!
As some of you might have noticed, the DwarfHeim demo was released on steam recently, and quickly removed soon after.
We felt the steam demo wasn't ready for the public and not what we wanted your first experience of DwarfHeim to be. DwarfHeim is designed around co-op classes and multiplayer. We felt the demo didn't do a good enough job of showing you how well the classes work together and the fun when you get the cohesion between classes going in full swing!
The reason for this we decided to pull the DwarfHeim demo and by extension pull DwarfHeim out of the steam festival. Even though it would give Dwarfheim a lot of attention, we didn't want to give you the wrong impression of the game.
Since it was released by valve anyway, we noticed that a lot of you who managed to download and play the demo and you seem to have enjoyed it! As you've all asked so nicely and some people felt they were missing out, we've since asked Valve to make the demo available for you again!
Since it was first released, some have commented on issues with difficulty, UI, and not having a tutorial. These were some of the things we noticed too and was among the reasons we decided to pull the demo. Rest assured we are both aware and working on these elements to ensure DwarfHeim is the challenging detailed and (most importantly) fun expereince for those who enjoy playing solo.
If you want to see how DwarfHeim is really meant to be played, and why we call it the next generation of RTS don't hesitate to join our Discord and sign-up for the multiplayer co-op beta happening THIS FRIDAY!
I hope to see you all there on Friday when the multiplayer beta kicks off again!
Love Aech

Update from the devs
Hey all,
We have some news! Firstly though we want to give a huge thanks for all of the testing and and feedback you've given us, it's been amazingly helpful and we've had some long meetings to discuss the direction of DwarfHeim as a result.
In these meetings we've decided to slightly refocus our development, this refocus means that we've decided to delay the implementation of the Diplomat Class until after DwarfHeim''s launch in the form of a free update.
However, in the Diplomat's absence we plan to add more content, as well as greatly improve the current classes, gameplay mechanics and online functionality. We feel this is the best path to make DwarHeim a fun, fair and balanced gaming experience for you, our community and the best way to provide the high-quality game we want you to have at launch.
Be sure to stay tuned as we make more announcements for DwarfHeim!
See you in the Mines! Pineleaf Team
