On the technical side, Update 1.8 adds gamepad support toDicey Dungeonsalong with two new(ish) enemies: the Bounty Hunter and Drain Monster. I say new-ish, because both were cut at the last minute before thegame’s launch last August. While the Bounty Hunter had a chance of showing up as a remix baddie or achievement challenge, Drain Monster hasn’t seen daylight ‘til now, with both now appearing as rare encounters.
But the secret highlight of today’s patch is full localisation into Gaeilge. In spite of my (largely Northern) Irish roots, I sadly don’t know much of anything about the Irish tongue. But its addition is a welcome one - something developer Cavanagh felt was a “big deal” to implement given the lack of games available in his ancestral tongue, and worked with the translators atRíomhacadamhto make a reality.
Update 1.8 also comes with a “substantial design update” to Robot Episode 3, plus a number of optimisations, balance tweaks and bug fixes that can be found over on theofficial patch notes.
Disclosure: Former RPSer Pip Warr contributed words for Dicey Dungeons.
