Future of Dice Hero

This update includes "improved" art, but many of these assets are still temporary and will be replaced in the future.

About 1.5 years ago, I started working at a larger game studio. One of my former co-workers from that studio will be helping me replace all AI-generated artwork in Dice Hero: The Unoriginal Story with handcrafted art. This process will take time, but it is one of my main goals for the final release.

Before the full release, the main priorities for Dice Hero: The Unoriginal Story are:

  • Finish multiplayer, drafting.

  • Replace all AI-generated images with handcrafted artwork.

  • Polish and improve the VFX.

I will also continue adding more content until the game reaches its final release.

Dice Hero: The Unoriginal Story was never meant to grow this large. It started as a 48-hour game jam project, but over time it has become much bigger than I ever expected. I’m excited to keep improving it and to shape it into the best version it can be and sorry for the slow progress.
