If you'd wishlisted Siegecaster, you'd have this email by now! Notice how the majestic green of Steam's demo ribbon contrasts with the redish orangish background. Oooo, yes, it is a lovely email. (And if you've enjoyed the demo, feel free to tell a friend during next week's Steam Next Fest!)

Hey, we're in a Humble Bundle. A top flight one at that. I love Death Roads Tournament and Backpack Hero, and have been planning on playing Hellcard for a bit. Have at it, deck-nerds.

If you were kind enough to SMASH that Siegecaster Wishlist button, you should have received an email that the demo is now live! (And if you were one of those beautiful and, may I say, quite smart folks who did Wishlist Siegecaster, can you just let me know that you got the email? 😅👍)

Yes, in Siegecaster 🏰☄️ you can switch between build mode and battle mode at ANY time. Something we probably should have highlighted better 😅 - Spacebar or Click Analog Stick. (Also, the Pacific Drive guy likes Siegecaster 🥰. Also, also, play Pacific Drive!)

Even more frequently: * write a bunch of new code * run the game to test * wonder why it's not working * put breakpoints in * realise I'm not calling the root function of the new code * repeat...
