First of all, we want to say a huge thank you!

More than 20,000 players have already tried the Horde of Distraction demo. For our small team, this number feels absolutely incredible. It’s especially exciting to see that the demo currently has 98% positive reviews on Steam.

We read your reviews and discussions every day. More than 3,000 players also completed our Google Forms survey. It helped us better understand the audience of the game and showed us that your vision of the project is very close to ours as developers.

Right now, we continue actively working on the full version of the game: adding new mechanics, testing balance, creating content, and constantly experimenting.

Today we want to tell you a little more about what awaits you in the full release of Horde of Distraction.

Town

The game will feature a ruined village that you will gradually restore as you progress. Each restored building will unlock new gameplay mechanics and character progression features.

Classes

The full version will include 3 playable classes: Warrior, Mage and Archer

Each class will have its own progression tree, unique talents, and a completely different playstyle. Even the core attack mechanic changes depending on the chosen class.

Acts

The demo only featured the first act. The full game is planned to have 5 acts. Each act will feature its own atmosphere, enemies, visual style, and bosses. At the end of every act, you will face a unique boss fight.

Mana and Active Spells

Some players noticed the mana indicator in the demo. Right now, it is not used yet. The full version of the game will introduce a system of active spells. During gameplay, you will be able to use different abilities and combine them with your build. Each class will also have its own unique spells.

A Deeper Loot System

In the release version, equipment choices will become much more important. You will be able to create full builds based on your playstyle, combine items, upgrade them with gems, and dismantle unwanted loot into resources.

This is only a small part of what we are preparing for the full version of the game.

Thank you for your support and interest in Horde of Distraction ❤️
