The Castle Doctrine Forums

The 0.7 update is now online: what's new ?

"I wanna steal your wife" is a MMO-Puzzle game and like in every MMO I have to deal with cheaters,
that's why this new update contains a new anti cheat system !

Multiplayers means interactions between players:
now you will be able to send a message to the owner of the house you are visiting : get ready to taunt !

But that's not the only novelty:
until now you were not able to see the replay of a player when this one escaped your house.
Now you will be able to watch every replay: you will totally understand the weakness of your traps !

At last, but not least there's now 4 different types of wives : catch them all !

The game now contains more than 80 different puzzles with an infinite number of resolutions.
Come and join more than 140 players ( and wives )

Yeah I really wanted a game which can be played by everyone, cause I want the maximum people to feel what I felt during my first 2 weeks of Castle Doctrine.

"Make sure to pay royalties to Rohrer if you monetize this project, on a matter of conscience if nothing else."
There's no royalties about game design in video game, luckily for the players !
By the way, I do the game for the fun after my work ; I don't really know how I will monetize it and I'm sure it won't cover my spending ( servers, middlewares etc...).
My priority is to get as much players as possible.
(  I spent 3 years working on that game and no one is playing it : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f … d=93510513 you can understand why it is my priority )

"that good simple mechanics are often more fun and effective than lots of cool stuff"
I totally agree with that, and that's why I removed a lot of objects of the castle doctrine.
I'm adding some others to test it, to change a bit the meta game, if they are not interesting enough I will remove them.

One more time : thank you, I must admit I agree with you on every points but there's some things I can't really do as I want because I already spent too much time in the project. ( 5 months, 2 hours / day after the work is a lot )

A big new patch is up : 0.6 !

A lot of gameplay's modification :

- Now it's impossible to totally avoid your wives from being captured : when you have enough diamonds to get a wife, the vault will be replaced by a wife !

- New tool: door blocker : It will prevent powered door from closing.

- New trap : the simple switch : Something must be on it to activate it.

- New trap : the steak :give a steak to the player who will be able to use it : a nice way to drag a red herring !

Available on Windows and Linux

A new trap is coming ! The plant !

"If you don't have the diamonds, you have no choice but to enter your house to reset the list."
In fact you just don't have enough diamonds to capture the wife but you can get the vault !
I'll try to describe this better in the game.
