We're in the final stages of adding and testing all the DLC content while polishing everything up. So, we won’t be revealing anything new - there's only spoilers left, and not much else exciting or visually stunning. So let's keep it short!

Onward, Travelers!!

Mysterious Seals…

They say that if, on the third day of the harvest month, you place such a seal under your pillow, spin three times clockwise and counterclockwise, then feed a stray cat some grain, yell at the moon, and go to sleep - you'll wake up to a pile of gold under your pillow! Or… maybe not gold…

But we’re seasoned travelers - we don’t believe in fairy tales, do we? Then again, there is something mysterious about these seals… But what exactly?

Here’s the deal: write your theories about what these seals might be for in the comments, and the first person to guess correctly will receive a unique reward - a handful of gold! All you’ll need to do is place a note with the purpose of these seals under your pillow on the third day of the harvest month, spin three times clockwise and counterclockwise…

An Even More Mysterious Lever…

So many mysteries today, don’t you think? Well, this time, there’s no gold at stake, and you won’t have to feed any cats with grain. But for some reason, this lever was put here - maybe it’s used to move library shelf ladders? Though, no, it’s as loud as a steam locomotive!

Drop your guesses in the comments!

How about some chit-chat?

[h5]Hey everyone, it’s ~~the mysterious~~ Andrey aka Innrey![/h5]

We’re in the final stretch, polishing up all the rough edges and fixing any bugs that have popped up. We want you to have the smoothest experience possible with the DLC and its accompanying updates.

We had a lot of plans for this period. We’ve accomplished a lot already, and what remains will follow after the expansion. We’ve grown so attached to Knock on the Coffin Lid that it’s hard to even think about future projects. But there’s still time for that - first, we finish the DLC!

Regarding the balance adjustments: the task turned out to be massive, but that doesn’t mean we’ve abandoned it. A new video dev diary will be out soon, where I’ll go into detail about it.

We’re eager to hear your thoughts on "Nightmares of Millenis." We’ve put a lot of effort into everything - from the art and story to the enemies and new items. After all, this expansion has so many branching event paths - it’s no joke! And don’t forget to report any bugs you find - thanks to you, the game gets better, and other players won’t run into those issues anymore.

See you at launch, and thanks for reading!
