Patch schedule + Spring Molting Beta coming!
Hey there,
Here's an update on last week's Feature Friday plus some other news. Since it's already Thursday, we've decided to just wait and post Feature Friday along with this week's patch tomorrow. Then, we'll be skipping Feature Friday next week, because: the following week we're posting the Spring Molting beta!

So the schedule is
  • Friday, April 26th: Feature Friday
  • Friday, May 3rd: no Feature Friday; patch skipped
  • Sometime between May 6th - May 10th: Spring Molting beta

You can read about Spring Molting and our roadmap for 1.0 and beyond <a class="bb_link" href="https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/333640/view/4195740727955544983" target="_blank" rel="" >here</a>.

Until then, live and drink.

Roadmap to 1.0 🗺️ Caves of Qud Dev Update
Hey quddites!

As you probably know, we announced that Caves of Qud is finally releasing on Steam in its full glory later this year, after more than 15 years of work. But we haven’t talked a ton about how we get there and what’s left to do. So let’s get to it!

Very Soon: Spring Molting

We’ve decided to put out one last pre-release feature arc on our Journey to 1.0. This update is already in private beta, coming to Patreon supporters extremely soon, and then going to open beta in early May & releasing a few weeks after that. Here’s what’s included:

- 🚨ALL NEW INTERFACE🚨 The much-touted, transformational UI redesign is complete! Fully mouseable, fully gamepaddable, and gorgeous, but all carefully designed to maintain the essence of what makes Qud Qud.
- a refresh of the starting town of Joppa, with as much texture & lived-in feeling as the rest of the world
- hundreds of new sound and visual effects
- 40 new achievements
- several new narrative touches, big bug fixes, & performance improvements

Summer & Fall 2024: Secrets til Launch!

We don’t want to spoil everything, but throughout summer and fall our central project will be to finish the main quest, and then add something to satisfy those who complete the entire narrative arc of Caves of Qud. We’ll add a more hands-on tutorial, too.

There’s also always tons of t’s to cross and i’s to dot when finishing a game: those last achievements, missing sounds and visual effects, more bugfixes, etc. All of these things will need to be built and tested behind closed doors, and they’ll keep us busy.

Late 2024: Launch

No, we don’t have a date, as it’s still awhile away and we don’t want to be up against the marketing budget of the next Assassin’s Cry: Breath of the Duty (trademark pending).

Part of the lead-up to launch is preparing the game architecture so we can properly handle big meaty updates post-launch. Which begs the question…

What About After Launch?

Yep! We’re going to keep updating the game! Major content and system releases. Of course how many exactly does depend on the financial realities of sales, but no matter what, we have two big DLCs planned already. We honestly don’t know yet if they’ll be paid purchases or free upgrades, but we’re thinking about the right approach.

We’re also considering how to best support other platforms. It’s not urgent or pressing, but we want to make sure we don’t code ourselves into a corner if/when the time comes to maintain several control schemes, hardware, etc.

Back to Work!

Those are all the updates for now. We’ll shout-n-video when we have Spring Molting up on Steam for you, but hopefully this clears up any lingering confusion about what comes next. Feel free to keep asking us questions on the Discord; we’re watching out for ‘em.

Live and drink,

Tanya, Alexandra, Jason, and Brian
