Oh, you would like to see more? Ok, ok, fine, here’s a short teaser, then: But we don’t want to leave you empty-handed so for now, here’s a sneak peek of the totally new hub area that will welcome you to the Family Trials Mode: Click here to see it (and set it as your wallpaper, preferably). We’re going to share more information about the new content later down the road.
CHILDREN OF MORTA ROADMAP UPDATE
» Long story short: there is no paid DLC coming anymore at a later stage - instead of that you’re getting a bigger, super fun, free content update in the form of Family Trials Mode. Even though it was supposed to be a paid DLC, we decided to make it totally free to thank you all for supporting us by buying the game and the Paws and Claws Charity DLC. That’s how the Family Trials Mode was born!Īnd there’s a surprise here, too. But by borrowing some mechanics from the paid DLC content - we could’ve created something special that almost feels like a game within a game.

We felt it’s not enough - even as a fun little free update. It was functional, you would’ve enjoyed it for sure - but it wasn’t a major game-changer. Let us be fully transparent here: we kinda felt that the basic endless mode ( The Temple of The Endless Update on the roadmap) that we’ve implemented and tested back in the day didn’t add that much to the game. However, what we have learned by creating the Uncharted Lands (paid DLC) - is that it would organically work better if we have actually merged some of its features with the Endless Mode, delivering a brand new experience in a shorter amount of time. Those were the three upcoming points on our previous roadmap. Our initial plan for the last three updates was simple: 1) deliver a rather straightforward and basic endless mode for the game 2) then add the online co-op functionality and last but not least - 3) create a bigger piece of paid content that would feel like a separate mode of the game. As you can see, there are some alterations to our route and we’d like to shed some light on what happened here and what we had to change over the course of the last few months. Now, let’s see what the future holds for us, shall we?Ĭlick here to see the updated Development Roadmap. We’re super proud to announce that this way we’ve already raised more than $100k (and this number is still growing!) for animals around the world - and it’s all thanks to you! Thank you so much for supporting Paws and Claws DLC, folks! 100% of 11 bit studios and Dead Mage's proceeds from selling this piece of content go to the Humane Society International charity organization. Paws and Claws DLC - while it obviously adds new features to the game (like the Animal Shelter System, new boosts, animations and events) - it first and foremost focuses on helping animals in the real world. The paid DLC, however, was a different story and was very special for us - ‘cause it gave a spotlight to something that we care about deeply: our animal friends.

Through those updates, we’ve added things like Items Packs, New Game+ Mode, new difficulty settings, a brand new playable character, and more! In 2020, we have delivered 5 significant updates to the game and four of them were completely free. We hope that by creating new content for Children of Morta we’ve provided you with a portion of much-needed escapism. Everyone copes with tough situations differently - and we happen to be a bunch of proper gaming nerds aficionados, so that’s what we have focused on: making stuff for our game for you to enjoy. A global pandemic, social unrest, major natural disasters.

Here’s a quick summary of our adventures from 2020 and some plans for 2021.Ģ020 was a tough year for all of us. And it’s especially nice if you find some unexpected rewards while discovering new routes, right? So that’s exactly what we did. What are we cooking, you ask? Well, some content for Children of Morta, obviously! Lands of Rea are rather dangerous in some places - that’s why from time to time it is wise to create a detour in your travels. We are doing great but we’re also quite busy.

We hope that the year 2021 has treated you well so far.
