It’s finally here! Thank you everyone for you patience as we navigated the difficult situations over this past year. Let me first start by thanking everyone for the support shown on our studio update post. It was truly overwhelming seeing how many of you took the time to comment or reach out to us, and it was so encouraging. Your well wishes went a long way to getting us across the line here, so thank you! The WeaverToday we are so excited for our first DLC Class: The Weaver. The Weaver, as you may have seen from the previews and the artwork, is a summoner class. She weaves adorable (mostly?)

Pets were obviously going to be the centerpiece of the class, and once we decided on finite slots the moment of "you filled all your slots so now you can only replace, not add" was set in stone. From then on you need to use a variety of abilities, buffs, artifacts, pets and even a few attacks to buff AP and make your board hit (and sometimes block) even harder. But there's also a LOT of synergy in Unraveling (sacrificing) Pets, and...It's hard to even know how to write this post - AP buffing pets synergizes with your token Spiders since they also deal their AP as damage when Unravelled (even i

Pet CardsThe main power of Weaver relies on cute Pets, and they can be summoned by playing a Pet card. Pet is a new card type (similar to Ability, Attack and Buff), but different in a handful of ways:A Pet card has an Attack Power (AP) value stored on the card, and the value persists in a fight,Playing a Pet card will transform (Weave) the card into a Pet on the board. The card will not shuffle into Discard until the pet is un-summoned (Unravel).Pets will have various actions, and normally each Pet can perform one action every turn, including the turn they are summoned. Performing an action do

Josh and I wanted to make a summoner for years, but it was just one of a few ideas in the running for classes with unique ways of scaling over a fight. The missing piece of the puzzle was how to fit it into the game's existing UI - especially on mobile - but as soon as we started brainstorming about how to create an alternate version of the central UI to make space for Pets, the Weaver concept was born. Every class (and most enemies) in Vault have ways to get stronger and scarier every turn, and it was important to make Weaver feel fundamentally different. By limiting players to 5 Pet slots it

Hey folks – time to come in here with a quick update on how things have gone over the last few months... I’ll be open to admitting that since our last update, the last few months have been the most challenging for the team here. Note: Before diving too far into this, I will eventually write a post-mortem article to help other developers who may find themselves in this position. I just need to be very careful with my words. But please feel free to share this story, and if you're a developer fearing the same issues, please reach out to me! Shu and I have spent the last 12-18 months getting the g

Hey folks -- the wait is over, Vault of the Void: Nightmare is finally here! Thank you all for your patience as we put this together, I hope the wait is worth it! Before I dive into the details, I wanted to give a quick thank you for all the support for the mobile release, and also all the people who helped out making this release smooth by playing on the Beta Branch. This was instrumental in helping us squash as many little bugs as possible before going live. However, as usual, we’re on standby here for the next 48 hours to hotfix any issues we find! So please, if anything shows up, let us kn

Hi folks! As we gear up towards our next FREE content update, Nightmare, I wanted to drop a few previews in here! I’ve been previewing these over at Reddit and in the Discord, so if you want to see more head over there!
