If you haven't heard the news, Daughter of the Rift is launching in just 5 weeks! You'll be able to get your hands on this labor of love on JUNE 16TH!! If you haven't already, please consider wishlisting it on Steam. We are currently at 386 Wishlists and we are trying to get to 2K before launch to increase reach and visiblity. As a small indie team that has poured our hearts and souls into this project, every wishlist helps! #indiegames #scifigames #narrativedesign #indiedevlife #gamedev #gamedevelopment

Our Narrative Designer got one amazing shoutout from our studio's mentor and publisher. Check out her post reacting to his and then head on over to Steam and give our game a wishlist! Let all of us, the indie community, unite to give DotR the success is deserves! #indiedevsunite #indiedevcommunity #narrativegames #scifigames #deckbuilder

WHY should you wishlist Daughter of the Rift on Steam right now? WAIT! Before you read, wishlist here: https://lnkd.in/eicM_WyZ Reason #3: Replayability. During development me and my cofounders had many conversations regarding the value we wanted to put out with our game. Yes, we want to deliver a curated experience with the core throughline of the game. However, we also wanted to make sure that, for those who want it, that there are plenty of reasons to stay immersed in DotR's world a little longer. So how are we achieving this? We are infusing the game with side content that includes side quests from characters you meet along the way, as well as more opportunities to simply battle with all the super cool enemies you'll come across in the game. The intention behind these inclusions is to satisfy players who want more narrative-focused interactions, or more combat opportunities, or both! Additionally, our XP-based progression system is unique in that it will allow players to go back and play through the core experience again and build up their characters with entirely different card and abilitiy combos. Thus, allowing for a fresh take on combat encounters where new play strategies might emerge. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #narrativedesign #scifigames #deckbuilder

WHY should you wishlist Daughter of the Rift on Steam right now? Reason #2: Daughter of the Rift is a deckbuilder with narrative depth. In my experience, the vast majority of deckbuilding games have only a surface level story, if they have one at all. With Daughter of the Rift we wanted to prove that a thoughtful, emotional, fun, character-centric story could not only walk hand-in-hand with deckbuilding gameplay, but enrich it. Thus, if loving the characters your playing as just as much as the cards your playing with excites you, wishlist it today so you'll be the first to know when it launches! If you missed reason #1, check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gWFYQrBq Wishlist DotR here: https://lnkd.in/eicM_WyZ #gamedevelopment #indiegames #indiedev #narrativedesign #scifigames #narrativegames #deckbuilder

I've spoken a lot on this platform about the development journey of Daughter of the Rift. I've shared my narrative design process and challenges. I've celebrated myself and my co-founders' wins and have highlighted some of our struggles. But starting today, I want to shift the conversation. I want to tell you all WHY you should wishlist the game that all of us at Future Suit Games have poured our hearts and souls into. So here goes... Reason #1: DotR isn't just another deckbuilder. It's a deckbuilder with an RPG-like XP-based character progression system. Thus, you are not just building a deck but you are shaping the characters that you are playing with. Sounds cool, right?

Join the festivities and wishlist Daughter of the Rift today as we continue to climb towards 2K!

Happy Steam Next Fest Day! 🌟 The event will kick off today at 10 AM EST and we will be proudly showcasing Daughter of the Rift throughout the whole week! To celebrate we will be livestreaming the game numerous times throughout the week. When we go live I'll give a shoutout here, on our other socials, and in our Discord community, so keep your eyes peeled! We were scheduled to go live today, however, due to an ongoing blizzard I've been having intermittent trouble with my power and internet connection (We currently have nearly 2 feet of snow and it's still snowing!). As such, I'm going to hold off streaming until later today or tomorrow. In the meantime though, take a look at our re-freshed gameplay trailer! And don't forget to wislist our game on Steam. We are a small team going up against Steam's algorithm and are aiming to reach 2K wishlists. But we can't do it alone! I'll leave the link to wishlist in the comments below. If you made it this far, THANK YOU! We couldn't have gotten here without the continued support of our community! 🙏 ✨ https://lnkd.in/ePHHedwf

We need your help to defeat the almighty Steam algorithm! Myself, my co-founders, and the entire team at Future Suit Games is working so hard to make sure Daughter of the Rift is the best game it can possibly be. And we are so excited to launch it for the world to see in the coming months. But we are at a disadvantage! We are a small indie startup and we lack the visibility that other larger or more established studios and IPs have. Thus, people who might love our game, might not ever even come across it, despite our best marketing efforts. Alas, there is hope! That's where you all come in! We are trying to hit at least 2000 wishlists on Steam. At that level Steam will automatically start promoting our game on their website. And more eyes on our game, means a greater chance of reaching the people that will love it most. Currently, we are hovering around 100 wishlists, but I truly believe we can get to 2K with your help! Myself, and each and every dev at our tiny studio would be so so very grateful if you gave Daughter of the Rift a wishlist, and perhaps share the link with a friend. Thank you all so so much for your support. It truly is the amazing community that we are cultivating that makes all the hard work, blood, sweat, and tears 100% worth it!
