We need new characters and new updates

once again, it’s already year 2025, i have to speak up for my fellow loyal players to your game. i have played this game since i was in high school and until now, i was wondering why you guys are still not doing any updates like, new characters, new map, new features, etc,. this was my favorite mobile offline game in my whole entire life and i know that i’m not the only one who felt this way. we need more, we need you guys to come back. please hear us. we love your game so much. :face_holding_back_tears::orange_heart:

TLDR: We totally hear you, we do!

We are a very small team and only have the resources to work on one game at a time.

Many, MANY, of the criticisms that were aimed at Dungeon Quest we have addressed directly in Three Skies Ascension.

  1. Real time multiplayer (in PVP)
  2. Localization support (we are releasing support for 8 languages in the next two weeks). Spanish French Italian German Portuguese (Brazilian) and Japanese. A
  3. PC support (three skies ascension is currently released on steam and will be on mobile again shortly)
  4. No GACHA No Pay 2 Win: We took this criticism to heart with three skies ascension and have made it a full priced game ($14.99 USD with regional pricing support as soon as we can figure it out).
  5. Full story mode. TSA has over 80 hours of story content and over 200+ characters to collect, and fight with.
  6. Offline AND online support for game modes. If you want to play offline, cool do that. If you want to play online PVP cool…you can do that too.

All of these features were asked for over and over again in Dungeon Quest and so instead of trying to force all of this into the small package that was DQ, we decided to try a new game with a new engine. That is what Three Skies Ascension is: our attempt to learn as much as we could about the positive and negatives of implementing all of those features in one title. I think we have successfully done that with TSA and it will make our future titles all the better for it.

Our roadmap for TSA has been updated and we have a very clear path to the end of that title.

Once that is done and dusted then we can come back to the massive undertaking that is creating a follow up to DQ!

If anyone on the forum wants to check it out, just hit me up…I know how to get free steam keys for the game :smiling_imp:

I will ask who said DQ was Pay to Win. Unless they’re like endlessly buying crystal rarity boosts or something.

Tons of folks were very angry about the slot purchases for additional characters. That was marked as “pay to win” due to the ability to have two characters in one map.

I’m in the ‘will never make purchases for app games’ camp, and somehow found myself liking DQ so much that I started spending real money on it.

Considering that a Player can easily choose one of the three Characters for free just by playing with each of them and then deleting until satisfied with one Character and then beat the stuffing out of DQ Monsters with that one Character, I never ever considered DQ a Pay to Win game. Which is why I ended up spending money on it for all kinds of stuff (including 5 more Character Slots) and am still having fun.

And the prices for the Cash stuff in the Shop are really low compared to the few other games I’ve played, and the purchases aren’t timed (except for the 2 hour buffs), so I can use them any time.

The funniest thing about me buying the 5 other Character slots is that I haven’t really Crafted any Main & Hireling Builds, only done some tests for Farming & a few other things for non-Farming Builds. But I have had some ideas percolating in my head…

Thanks to @tdaniel and the Shiny Box Crew for their hard work on Three Skies Ascension and not giving up on Dungeon Quest (I still have so many Goals to reach in DQ!).

Oh, I always saw this as an alternate game mode. I have 0 issues climbing floors with a single character (mainly because Crushing Blow is completely broken, hope it gets tweaked in DQ2 to be weaker but have more ways to increase the damage so you can dedicate more space on build for damage.)

Same here tbh, haven’t really built my Rogue and Warrior yet.

So many of the folks (like you two) on the forum have been extremely gracious in supporting our game and believe me we appreciate ALL of your support. You two are always extremely helpful on the forums as well which we cannot thank you enough for that!

:blush:

all this attention makes me want to become a Lurker for awhile! :sunglasses:

plus, I like helping new players learn more of DQ, it’s a really fun game.
