Halloween Mode & New Scenario Map (Patch Notes 19)
Glistenveld is getting spooky once again as Halloween Mode is now enabled! In Halloween Mode, you will experience the following changes to the game: [olist] Atmosphere - The colour and atmosphere of levels have become a little spooky!
Pumpkins - You will find random pumpkins in each level. You can harvest these to get a tasty pumpkin stew, which dwarves will treat like meals!
Webs - You will find random webs that stick to your dwarves and slow them down!
Bats - When you start a new skirmish mode game, you'll find a few more bats roaming the tunnels!
Bubbling waters and mist - Water has turned greenish and bubbles, and you will find mist emerging here and there.
Green blood - Units and creatures flash green when injured, instead of red.
[/olist]
As usual, seasonal modes can always be disabled in the options menu under Gameplay > Seasonal.
To help celebrate this spooky event, we have released a new map: Fishbeard's Mining Operation. Fishbeard is one of the other clans you encounter in your journeys under Glistenveld, and in this scenario you step in the shoes of one of their expedition groups, but not all is what it seems about this particular venture... Find it in the list of scenario maps under New Game > Scenarios!
[olist] Various AI Fixes - Includes some warrior AI improvements. We're still not entirely happy with when units decide to rest or fight. This might be worthy of a blog post, we'll see.
Spider AI - Spiders were not properly utilising burrows and would occasionally get stuck. The spider mother should mostly keep to its original nest.
Unit Buried/Drowning - When dwarves end up buried in a wall they will now take damage and jump to a nearby ground tile if able. When dwarves end up in water, they will start losing stamina and then health until a friendly unit stands next to them, at which point they are rescued and jump out. (This update will become more relevant in future content)
Campaign World Map - Polished up the interface for the world map. New/unexplored maps are given an outline. Refined code behind the scenes in preparation for an upcoming feature.
Bats - Should no longer fly through doors.
Ballistas - Which pressure-plates automatically link to ballistas has been improved. Rather than first-come first-serve, they now switch according to which ballista is closest. This is the case unless they've been set by the player or were already existing before the game was last loaded.
[/olist]
Not too much in terms of updates this month, and I know we haven't released a blog post in a while. We've been focusing on chapter 2 content, mostly grind-work and spoilers at the moment, so we don't have a lot to share, but rest assured we're still working hard and making progress!
Until our next update, Happy Halloween!

The Dwarves of Glistenveld is a 2.5D Real Time Strategy game with sandbox and RPG elements. Take control of a clan of Dwarves, as they mine, forage, build and fight to retake their homeland from a horde of greedy goblins. Will you unite and cooperate with the other dwarf clans? Or will you take control of a single clan and seek to gain power for yourself?
Goblins have invaded the land of Glistenveld and the dwarven city Glistenborg is besieged! Flanked on all sides and with their supplies cut off, the surviving dwarves have fled underground. Cut off and divided, the dwarves split into five clans, each with their own strategy to survive. Goblins are now searching the caverns and tunnels under the city to rid the land of all dwarves for good! Can you forge a new clan and unite the dwarves under one banner? Retake your homeland and drive out the goblin horde!
Campaign
Play through a story-driven single-player campaign, as you help the dwarves drive out the goblins and take back their homeland!
Personality
Every dwarf is unique, with a trait system and generated details that give each unit individual personalities, appearances and behaviours. Watch as your dwarves gain experience working a particular role and level up to gain new abilities!
Scenarios
Experience a series of carefully designed, challenging levels that are not part of the main campaign.
Skirmish Mode
Play through an almost infinite number of generated maps as you choose from a wide range of parameters to customize your own scenario.
Map Editor
Hand-craft and script your own levels and share them on the Steam Workshop.
Mini Games
In our first mini-game, Mobbit Run, you play as a brave mobbit (an underground critter somewhere between a mole and a rabbit) whose goal is to steal carrots from the goblins.
