Update 1.2 and end of online servers

Distant Dials is now available in 1.2 version!

This version provides some bug and trad fixes as well as a better code formatting and file organization.

The main feature introduced is an offline mode allowing to play a truncated (shorter and less difficult) version of the game without a server.

This update is of course free and from now on the game itself will be at a cheaper price on both Steam (0,99$) and Itch.io (1$).

For those who want to host their own server to play online, you can find the source files of the game as well as some instructions on FramaGit.

With this update, the game is as complete as it can get and I’m focusing on my next project (a Godot framework to make multiplayer text-based RPGs).

See ya!

Second Beta Test

We are going to start a second testing period, where you are invited to come and try it and give us your feedback: it will be from January 18 to 24, 2021.
Contrary to the first session, there is no longer a time limit, because we can now start the game alone if too few people are online.
This beta is the opportunity to collect your opinions and feedback on Distant Dials! To do so, a pad is available for filling in : https://etherpad.alolise.org/p/DD_beta2021

To get the game it’s here : the beta is done.

For those who did not participate in the first session, here is the introductory text below:
“One day of the solar year 2875, you wake up from your third sleep cycle to find your house plunged into darkness. The Maker, your personal central computer, does not give you the usual local and external news. It does not inform you about your daily schedule either. The neural implant is, for the first time in your life, silent.
You follow the emergency light to the nearest terminal.the Maker still works, but it only shows an outdated 2D emergency interface.
What’s going on?”
A game of Distant Dials lasts less than 5min and the game is entirely in English.
