Build-A-Room : Community Vote!

  • Comment
Hey folks,

Welcome to the very first installment of the Build-A-Room series, where we will be allowing you, the backers, to vote on the artistic direction we take with our newly revealed room, The Archive - Check out the Kickstarter update for more information and then cast your vote in the poll by clicking here




In this poll we are asking all of you to choose what floor design you would like to be the main (initial) skin for the Archive in the game. Take a good long look at the choices in the showcase, or above...

The Archive


We had heard rumors of a dark figure sneaking around the dungeon so we dug around to see what we could find out. It turned out that there was a new room in the playable showcase that we didn't remember building. Eager to investigate we sent a few Blood Imps in. They haven't returned (though they probably just snuck over to the disco room, the lazy bums.....) and we were forced to probe deeper. It turns out a Cultist had entered our dungeon and had set up his books, candles, and scrolls in the Archive.

You may be saying to yourselves “Archive? That’s like a place for books...and reading? Bah, I don’t read. This is a boring room...” To which we’d reply that there is a spot in the torture room waiting for you if you don’t go find a book. The Cultist (we’ve been calling him Bob, though his real name is George, and you can see from his face that he’s not pleased) will take great pride in “reeducating” you into the wonders of the room.

But I digress. The Archive will be the location for researching new Veins of Evil unlocks. As your researchers focus their efforts over time, their discoveries will aid you in choosing just how you want to play the game. At the same time, the Archives is also a way for researcher types to train and some units are even entertained by simply sitting down and reading a book (note the last paragraph, for the offer of the torture room still applies).

In our next design update, we go into more details on how the Archive hooks into Veins of Evil, and how Veins of Evil will give you the ability to fine tune exactly how you want the game to be played.

    The archive concept sure looks nice.
