Gamescom's spouting a wealth of indie game news tidbits, among them that Amplitude Studios is bringing its retro dungeon defense game Dungeon of the Endless to Xbox One. The Xbox version will have all the PC game's combat, strategy, exploration and loot, but will be optimized for the Xbox One gamepad.
The game has recently reached beta and that means:
- Co-op multiplayer mode: after several gameplay iterations, we're starting to have something that is quite enjoyable! We're currently fixing several bugs before we can release it in a public update. We still have several improvements we'd like to implement as well but yeah, we're getting there
- Tactical map: AT LAST. And it's working too, but we're still working on the visuals
- Improved Crystal phase: we're testing several changes with the VIPs
- A score journal: work in progress
- Several improvements: we've implemented several small improvements requested by the community (but we'll let you know in due time!)
- The remaining promised game content: we're not going to shed a tear, but we've added the last heroes and environment for the release
- Balancing: singleplayer and multiplayer, but also spaceship wise (we should be working on that in the long run, until the release)
The game is still in the works, but is available for Early Access on Steam.
