MidBoss enters Steam closed beta with v1.0
What are death cards? They look like trading cards, but they summarize your run and your death, and you can share them on Twitter. Death cards are not yet working; they’ll be in the game later in the closed beta. When they arrive, however, they’ll have embedded data that can be loaded in-game to show more information about the run, or let you replay the game with the same seed and game settings.
To request a Steam key:
- If you made an itch.io account: Look at your purchase history and find MidBoss. The Steam key should be available from the downloads page.
- If you did not make an account but you did keep the digital receipt: The email is from itch.io with a subject line of "Your purchase of 'MidBoss." Follow the download link included in that email; the Steam key should be on that page.
- If you did not make an account and did not keep the digital receipt: You'll need to go to itch.io's support page and use the "Recover Games" option with the email address you used when you purchased the game.
For more information read our newsletter, or check the beta FAQ.
