Dragon Eclipse launched into Early Access more than 3 weeks ago. Thank you SO MUCH for being a part of this journey and providing a lot of feedback! We read and analyzed all your comments thoroughly. Based on that, we’ve already released a few small updates, focusing on bug & crash fixing, and various UX-related features.

Today we’re proud to present you with the first full-fledged content patch for Dragon Eclipse - the Shadow Realm! As many of you have beaten the game on the highest difficulty level, this brand-new land offers an even greater challenge for the bravest ones.

Rest assured, this is just the beginning of our journey. We’re already working on new updates of similar size, and we plan to keep releasing them every 2 weeks.

Without further ado, let’s jump straight into it!


Embark on an eerie adventure through the Shadow Realm, which, for the most part, remains a mystery to humanity. It is said that every 1000 years, a double eclipse opens a portal to this world. Last time, the Dragon Guardians closed it at great cost, but they haven't appeared this time. It's up to you to dive into the realm, uncover its secrets, and close the portal for good!


Prepare to face two new foes in the Shadow Realm:

• Fungusmo: this enemy introduces a brand-new mechanic with its two phases. Don’t get too comfortable seeing it dormant.
  
• Exalted Shadowling: another two-phase opponent. One of the phases renders your attacks useless. Or… does it?

Meet Skitterpaw, the new boss of the Shadow Realm. Not to spoil too much, but you can be sure it’s very powerful, as it possesses the power to manipulate elements. This epic battle will test your skills to the fullest!


To add an extra layer of resource management, we’ve made some tweaks to the store & Blessings mechanics. For a small amount of Mystberries, you can now freeze a specific Blessing, ensuring it appears the next time. Additionally, the third Blessing slot is now locked and can only be unlocked by redeeming this slot.


This one you’ll have to explore for yourself! In short, most Mystlings have received additional story events that expand their background and deepen the narrative.


Huge thank you to everyone who decided to give Dragon Eclipse a try. Your overwhelming support and feedback help us keep the development going, so continuous extra suggestions or requests are always welcome!

As announced, there’s tons of more content to come, so stay tuned for future updates!

The time has come! Dragon Eclipse is out now in Early Access. We’ve all been waiting for this moment for months, and we’re so happy to begin this great journey with you!

Combining team battler and deck builder elements, Dragon Eclipse offers endless fun strategies and combinations. After each run, you'll unlock new Mystlings, cards, and difficulty levels, ensuring the game remains enjoyable for a long time. Create amazing combos, enhance your skills, and boost your statistics to engage each team member uniquely and achieve the impossible. But be careful - the eclipse is inevitable…


6 tamers: each has their own, unique playstyle, as well as a starting deck of cards!

10 Mystlings: the “cute but dangerous”, they are the core of the game. Tame, train, and evolve them, so they can become unstoppable!

Craft your deck: acquire numerous cards from battles, quests, exploration, and other interactions. Aim for great combos and strategic play to be victorious.

Mind the time: the eclipse is coming. You won’t be able to explore the whole map during a run. Make strategic choices, as some goods will have to be left behind.

Don’t get deceived: despite its looks, Dragon Eclipse demands tactical planning and strategy. Mastering the game will take some serious skills!


Huge “thank you!” to everyone who has been with us through the development process, especially the ones who played the demo and playtested the Early Access build! With your help, we’ve created something we’re proud of, so we hope you - the players - will enjoy your time with the game!

How pleasant it is to write such messages when they carry so much positive information! We are already on the verge of completing the Early Access version, and we wanted to inform you that you will be able to play Dragon Eclipse as soon as June 24th - less than a week from today! We hope the game meets your expectations and that you immerse yourself fully in the adventure we've prepared for you. May the challenges you encounter be both demanding and satisfying!

On this occasion, we have prepared a trailer for you that not only announces the release date to the whole world but, most importantly, shows how the game has evolved since it was presented at Next Fest in the form of a demo, which we hope you enjoyed playing!. The demo is now being removed from Steam, as it no longer reflects the actual game you will get your hands on in a few days. Please take a look at how Dragon Eclipse evolved (just like a fine Mystling does):

Currently, we are working on the final touches, and a large number of beta testers are working on catching minor bugs to ensure your future gameplay satisfaction will be as high as possible. However, we would like to remind you that this is still Early Access with all its challenges, and the game will continue to develop dynamically over the coming months. We count on your support, valuable comments, and feedback to help us make this game even better! We can't wait to see how you receive this title. See you in the land full of Mystlings and the upcoming eclipse!

It's been a while since our last update at the Steam Next Fest, but rest assured - the gears of development for Dragon Eclipse have been spinning at a dizzying pace! The Mystlings have grown stronger and fiercer, ready to help you dominate the battlegrounds. ⚔️

We're thrilled to announce that we're gearing up for a launch towards the end of May or early June this year. It's just around the corner now, and we couldn't be more excited to share our development progress with you. So, without further to do, let's dive into what's been brewing in the Dragon Eclipse universe! 🎮

Let’s start with a brief overview of the most crucial highlights. There’s a full-fledged hub up and running smoothly, accompanied by significant UI and gameplay flow enhancements. We’ve revamped how Blessings are allocated and how leveling works, making the experience more engaging and intuitive. What’s more, acquiring new Mystlings now involves thrilling egg hunts and challenge completions in order to hatch them. Additionally, we've introduced impactful consumable items, adding an extra strategic layer to combat encounters. All that to provide you with an even more dynamic and immersive adventure!

But that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to content updates.

• Hub, along with a new progression system (egg hatching, unlocking new cards and blessings, choosing Mystlings, receiving a random consumable item before each run)
  
• Addition of consumables for use in combat
  
• Introduction of a special currency (for use in-hub only)
  
• Store overhaul, including the addition of re-roll and purchasable consumables
  
• Adjustments to Blessings allocation and leveling mechanics
  
• Changes to the Mystling Care Center to accommodate the new Blessings system
  
• Introduction of new one-time-use locations on the map (for healing and training)
  
• Lots of new content (cards, Blessings, various consumables)
  
• Expanded options for upgrading cards
  
• Improved responsiveness in combat gameplay
  
• A “Reset progress” option in the settings
  
• Enhanced localization
  
• Gamepad input support
  
• Code refactoring, numerous bug fixes

But hold onto your hats because plenty's still in the pipeline! We're constantly working on implementing new content, with unique Mystlings, cards, and blessings being our main focus points. Here are some work-in-progress arts of the beasts that are yet to be tamed:


While a good amount of the graphics you see in the demo version are still placeholders, we’re polishing up the visuals of the game, especially how the map looks. See some behind-the-scenes works:

At the same time, we're looking into refining the overall user experience and game feel. We’re aware that the tutorial and localization are lagging behind, but you can be sure they're in the works. For now, we've decided to put more focus on diligently fine-tuning configurations, testing gameplay scenarios, and hunting down bugs, to ensure the smoothest experience possible. With so many ongoing changes, we want to ensure that our resources and time are invested wisely to adapt to any future alterations seamlessly.

Thank you for playing the demo version of the game, Tamers! Stay tuned for more production updates as we continue to elevate your Dragon Eclipse experience. And remember - watch out for those wild Mystlings waiting to be tamed. 👀
