A little birdie told me that today might be the only day of the year you can enter a certain dungeon in God's Disdain.
Head to the leftmost part of the snowy mountains of the Gilksov Range!
God's Disdain has been featured on the front page of Newgrounds today! Thank you to everyone who voted for it. If you still haven't checked it out, you can play it right in your web browser!

It's March 14th, and you know what that means! God's Disdain is OUT NOW!! Huzzah! If you like the old-school nature of SNES RPGs like Dragon Quest as well as the worlds of games like The Elder Scrolls, this is the game for you!
God's Disdain is a non-linear, turn-based JRPG about a world stricken by a mysterious plague. As Tamiko, alongside her brother Kenshin and other friends you find along the way, you must find a way to stop the plague for good and either save Hajimari or damn it. There are tons of side quests, dungeons, and unique locations to check out as well as plenty of gear and magic! The world is totally open for you to explore... what will you find?
Many people have contributed to this game over the course of the last near-decade, and we would all appreciate you trying it out! God's Disdain is free to play with an optional Supporter Pack if you like the game. There is no DRM and all the game files are completely accessible if you would like to mess around with it! Enjoy :)

God's Disdain releases in just 24 hours! That's right! The non-linear JRPG nearly a decade in development will FINALLY be available soon, and for free! Check it out tomorrow when it launches, and perhaps buy the Supporter Pack if you enjoy it 
God's Disdain releases this Friday at 9AM Pacific!
Alongside it, the God's Disdain Supporter Pack will be made available for $6.99 USD. It includes the original soundtrack (plus a retro version), design documents, concept art, high resolution versions of the cutscene paintings, dungeon designs, and more!
If you like God's Disdain, we would appreciate the monetary support (although it is not necessary).

The full game will be releasing next month on March 14th, but this limited demo will let you experience some of the game's towns and side quests. Feedback on the demo is appreciated, and if there is anything that can be addressed before the full release it certainly will be.

God's Disdain has 296 wishlists on Steam! Wow! That's actually really incredible and much more than I thought it'd get. Can we get just 4 more to push it to 300? That would be awesome!

Come check out the new and improved trailer for God's Disdain! I received lots of criticism that it was too long, especially at the beginning, so I took out the starting story cutscene and trimmed it up a bit in order to fit it within a minute-long trailer. I also tried to adjust audio levels a bit better this time so I hope that turned out well.
There are a couple new things in here as well, so please enjoy!

Testing has been going very well! Since starting the insider beta, 7 versions have been released containing a total of 68 bug fixes, upgrades, and balance patches.
Of note, the game now has a slightly reduced horizontal resolution to avoid some visual errors, a results screen at the end of the game, tighter balance overall, fixed soft locks and quest tracking, and other general QOL fixes!
Only a little bit more time and a couple more assets are needed to get a much wider beta going than just the dev team and our friends. I'm looking forward to seeing the feedback!
Quick update! All the voice recordings for the game have now been finished and are in game! The ones that have been re-recorded still need to have their volume levels adjusted, and that is being worked on now.
Testing is going well, and I'll have more information on the next testing phase within the next couple of months, so stay tuned if you're interested in that!
Here's a quick look at a re-recorded voice line from Kenshin!
Already have received the very first piece of fan art, featuring Avadel and drawn by @canvasesbymaya on Instagram!
The first insider testing build for God's Disdain has been submitted to Steam for review! It will go into testing as soon as it has been accepted and from there, we will be planning on how to expand the testing to those outside of the development team.
You can now wishlist God's Disdain, a free old-school JRPG about a plague coming in 2025, on Steam. Please check it out!

It is with great happiness that I'm finally able to share the reveal trailer with you all! After nearly nine years, development is finally coming to an end and the game will be in all of your hands very soon. I can't wait!!

Update #19: Road to Beta
In this devlog, I talk about completing the first full playthrough of the game in all its glory, as well as what is left to do before beta can officially start! Very exciting stuff.

There is a dungeon in God's Disdain that has a game of "Slides & Ladders!" It is quite well-hidden. Do you think you'll be able to find it and get all of the treasures inside?
It's been decided that God's Disdain will not be receiving the tileset swap and will be sticking with the original RPG Maker assets.
The main downside to this is obviously that it will look very similar to other RPG Maker games. However, almost every other piece of artwork outside of the tileset graphics is completely original, or at the very least non-standard. Hopefully that will be enough to really give the game its own identity.
That being said, the decision comes with the massive upside of the game coming out a lot sooner. I won't be taking any extra time off just because this isn't happening anymore. Starting tomorrow, I'll begin my playthrough of the game to test everything I possibly can before getting the beta ready.
Just as a little treat, here are some screenshots from the game that can, for all intents and purposes, be considered (mostly) final! I've been very protective over showing this sort of thing so far, so if you're seeing this you're one of the first handful to do so. Congratulations?
