Build notes 1.5.03f2 - M1 Mac fix and Discord server update

Hi all, this is a small patch to update the Twice Different logo and Discord links as we approach the announcement of our next game!

This patch also include a fix for UI text not appearing on M1 Macs and recent OS.
There's still a known graphical issue with the News Feed on new Mac OS, however this should significantly improve the experience for our Mac players.



Our Discord server is now a studio server.
We've decided to keep our communities together as we're generally interested in making dark strategy games for a similar type of player.

If you'd like to be a part of our Discord community it's a great place to get the latest news and we also run events.

Team update from Twice Different

Hello friends!
I wanted to share some news from the Twice Different team. ːRoPFrogː

First up, we're so grateful to have found some success with Ring of Pain which has enabled us to add a ton of free extra content since launch. I've mentioned in the past that we've been uncertain about adding more content due to our focus being on our next dark strategy game... However, I have some news!

We've decided to give our community an opportunity to be a part of another small content update.

Item design challenge



On our Discord we've just started an item design challenge with a brief. We're interested in adding some synergies for item sets and making content inspired by the community.

This is a chance to get your idea into the game!
We'll be running this event until mid April so check the #events channel on Discord for more information.


Upcoming game announcement



We're also getting close to being able to announce our next project, and we'll be figuring out a plan to do some community testing this year (hopefully pretty soon).

We'll be expanding our Discord to include the next title we're working on as well, so if you're interested in knowing more, join us on Discord and all will be revealed soon...

Thanks for playing!

Happy Owloween

It's that time of year and Firebeads and Firehives are looking a little different...

You may have noticed we snuck in a small visual theme tribute to celebrate Halloween :RoPFirebead:

These art changes are in the game from now until Nov 1.

Hope you have a spooky weekend! :RoPOwl:

Build notes 1.5.03 - Minor Daily Dungeon fix

Balance



  • Updated the Dominant Daily Dungeon modifier


We've slightly buffed the player going into a Daily Dungeon with the Dominant modifier. You will now start with a small amount of Souls (for Soul Spilling) and Poison spellbook.

The Dominant modifier was previously buffed, but not enough! Now it should be much more enjoyable if the Daily rolls the most challenging levels.

Limited edition Owl plush

Thanks for your support!
