Entombed!

Ever had the feeling of being stuck somewhere...

Hi,

I hope you’re well.

How was Vents!? Not too difficult, I hope. I’d love to know your thoughts.

I wanted to give you a quick update about November’s adventure. It’s called ‘Entombed!’ and it’s all about getting out of a tomb, or at least, the first room in a tomb. And no, it’s not a tomb with a view before you ask.

It’s going to be quite a complex puzzle (for me, anyway), and I’m still trying to think how I’m going to split it out - I’ll let you know what I decide!

Recently, ‘Dungeon Alchemist’, a Kickstarter I backed awhile ago, entered its Beta phase, and I’ve been having far too much fun creating dungeons and crypts and castles and taverns and, well, lots more.

I created the tomb from Entombed! in it, so wanted to show you a little snapshot so you could get a flavour, though, no spoilers!

In the actual software, all those torches are animated and there are different lighting modes, and burning embers are floating around and I could go on and on.

When I release the main adventure, I’ll include a map for paid subscribers, as well as some of our regular features.

If you have any ideas for features you’d like to see, drop me a reply to this newsletter.

Also, if you’re interested in the different subscriptions available, take a look by clicking the button below.

Speak soon and stay safe,

Simon
