Desktop Defender

Hi everyone!A few days we released the Forge Update, and I'm happy to announce that we've got even more coming out on this stacked week! Namely... The free demo for our next corner idle game is OUT NOW!It's called Desktop Detective, and we really worked hard to not only really level up the visuals, but also to make the gameplay even more strategic!The game will come out super soon, so the demo's the perfect opportunity to see what it's like before then. It's got:About 10-15 hours of base gameplay, but you can effectively play infinitely if you chase highscores and perfect buildsSaves carry to the full game10 levels, can go up to 13 levels if you do the demo questsWhen it comes out, owners of Desktop Defender will also get a discount (just like we did with our other game, Card Corner), so let me know what you think of the demo if you get a chance to try it out!We'll also be running a survey next week about the next update for Desktop Defender, so keep an eye out for that! Also, as always, if you're enjoying the game, I would REALLY appreciate it if you reviewed it. It's the best thing you can do to support the game if you're enjoying it!Thanks again for reading this post, and I hope you keep on enjoying Desktop Defender's Forge Update, and the just-released Desktop Detective Demo!- Conrad, Lead Developer

Hi everyone!I'm happy to announce that Desktop Defender's biggest update yet has JUST RELEASED! The Forge Update has a crazy amount of stuff, and this post will go over all of it!Also, we JUST released a brand new bullet heaven called Wanted Shadows: Unchained, and you can get it discounted if you already own Desktop Defender! Despite having tons of hours of gameplay, it only costs $2.80 with the bundle!Anyways, let's get right to it!ForgingAfter Rebirthing for the first time, you now unlock Forging. Clicking on this menu will allow you to combine two pieces of loot on the floor to make an even stronger piece of loot if they're part of a crafting recipe.Crafted loot has a new unique Ω tier, and they're all stronger than the current maximum ∞ tier! They also use a mix of lower and higher tier loot to be crafted, so all sorts of loot is useful now even if you're far into the game!This system (and tons of this update) is actually based on the crafting system in our other idle corner game, Card Corner! So if you like what you see, make sure to check that game out. You can even get a discount if you already own Desktop Defender!New LootSpeaking of loot, we've added 56 new ones! That means that we've gone from 108 -> 164 loot types... That's a crazy 52% increase! Some of these are in E - A tiers, but there are 4 new ones in S tier, 8 in ∞, and 29 in the new Ω tier!Because lower tier loot can also be now used to craft Ω loot, we've rebalanced the loot rarity drop table to make it possible for any rarity to show up at any level, while still not feeling frustrated that most loot is unusable!On top of that, we've taken even more inspiration from ourselves in Card Corner, and added Limited and Unique loot. Some of the new loot have this label, and they limit how much you can equip, but are really powerful for their rarity. CompendiumWe've wanted to add a way to visualise all loot in the game for a while, and this update was the perfect opportunity to add it! The compendium is ...
