EXPANDING EVERYTHING

Once the Dice, Death & Dating demo was released, we read through every piece of feedback that was submitted, which was an astounding amount and a HUGE help! Thank you again to everyone who played and left feedback!

The top two pieces of feedback we got was:

  1. We want MORE!
  2. What if it wasn't just a dating sim?

We couldn't agree more, so: We're expanding this game into a Narrative Roguelike! Fight through multiple regions of a corrupted Bellowing Wilds, as you build relationships with those you meet along the way! And the best part? That includes building relationships with the bosses you fight during your adventures.

All the awesome character art (buff Ohio Jack...) and funny writing stays, but we're adding roguelike gameplay into the mix, with even more characters, and a world that changes depending on your good or evil choices.

We've settled on an amazing 2.5D perspective, which will bring out the best in our 2D artists in a 3D environment. Can't wait to share some of those fun visuals with you later!

New Name, New Site!

As part of this transformation, Fool's Gold: Dice, Death & Dating will be rebranded under a new title, which will be revealed soon. We'll be updating the website, steam page, etc, once we're ready to reveal it.

Don't worry, the dating sim demo isn't going anywhere. It will always be available to download for free on our website.

What's Next?

Kickstarter! We're currently working on a new demo in preparation for launching a Kickstarter. The funds we raise will enable us to greatly expand on the game and add a ton of additional content, like more characters, abilities, lore, weapons, and so on.
