The cult classic roguelike Desktop Dungeons has just gotten a modern remaster, and a free giveaway to promote🐈 the launch has led to a not-insubstantial amount of chaos and con𓆉fusion.
Desktop Dungeons is a 2013 roguelike whose main gimmick is that most sessions only take 10 minutes or less. Today, developer QCF Design launched Desktop Dungeons: Rewind, which they describe as a "modern remastering of the award-winning, bite-sized, tactical dungeon crawler𓃲." That might be underselling it a bit, actually, since Rewind completely overhauls the original with brand-new 3D graphics that make this more akin to a full-on remake.
Either way, Desktop Dungeons: Rewind is being given away for free to anyone who owned the original game prior to today's launch. Now, here's where the story gets confusing. To promote the launch of Rewind, the original game was set to be given away for free as soon as the new version became available. However, that promotion went live several hours before Rewind came out, which meant that it seemed like if♏ you quickly picked up the origin🤪al just before the remaster went live, you might get both versions for free.
The devs quickly had to issue a statement on the Steam forums, one which contained the phrase "we have no idea what's going to happen." It turns out that the original Desktop Dungeons was only supposed to go free after the launch of Rewind, but the giveaway accidentally went live early. And then, when R🍌ewind actually launched, many people did not get their free c🎶opies, even if they had bought and paid for the original.
Desktop Dungeons went free too early according to the dev, and they're not sure what will happen in regards to getting Rewind for free with the free DD license. People who bo🏅ught DD before Rewind's launch are confirmed to get Rewind for free //t.co/9DJuTc6E78 pic.twitter.com/8piYXTdPqN
That post has , and after conferring with Valve, the devs have confirmed that you 🌠will not get Rewind for free if you claimed the original for free, or if you purchase the original afterꦅ today. However, if you did buy the original before Rewind's release, you will get the remaster for free - it's just taking time for those copies to roll out.
