Pixel Dungeon

Been looking for a while, but I cannot seem to find the original high-resolution (.WAV) music files which were uploaded to SoundCloud. The game itself only has lossy MP3 transcoded versions.

Here is a snapshot of the SoundCloud page... https://web.archive.org/web/20131219163958/http://soundcloud.com/cube_code

If anyone has please let me know. Not even archive.org has it saved!

The songs would be...

As mentioned last week, Shattered Pixel Dungeon's upcoming Cleric hero has a variety of unique spells which they can access via their holy tome. The first of the Cleric's spells is a simple supportive ranged option: Guiding Light.

Guiding Light is an innate spell (no talent needed to unlock) and does some damage while 'illuminating' the target. This guarantees that the next physical attack made against that target will hit.

(Image Description: a short GIF showing off the guiding light spell. The Cleric casts it on an enemy, which begins to glow. The Cleric then waits for the enemy to approach, and attacks them.)

That's not a mimic and there haven't been any weird teleports either.

Here's how Shattered Pixel Dungeon's mobile hero select screen will look with the upcoming Cleric added to it. Some visuals are still a WIP, (the cudgel's sprite in particular is very rough) but all the important bits are in place.

You can see the info window for the Cleric here too, showing off some info about their abilities. Just like the Rogue, the Cleric has a unique artifact that lets them access class abilities.

Unlike all the other heroes though, the Cleric gains a wide variety of active abilities (spells) via the talent system! I'll be sharing more info about some of the Cleric's spells in the coming weeks!

(Image Description: A screenshot from Shattered Pixel Dungeon showing the hero select screen and the Cleric selected. On the left the screen is shown with no info window open, on the right the hero info window is open, showing various information relating to the new hero. Most notably: "The Cleric starts with a unique holy tome, which they can use to cast various spells. Most of the Cleric's talents are focused around learning or upgrading spells.")

I was too busy shitting myself and running from this ball of energy that had a huge range

I was sailing through what looked like my first six challenge mode win. Warlock with vampiric greatsword is fantastic, coupled with both the chains and the hourglass mean easy get out trouble and for zapping with a wand of lightning. Was looking like You would be easy, and it was, until somehow i quaffed a potion of speed and thought i would have two turns at least to escape Yogs attack. Somehow i didn't have two turns, not sure why but gutted to die at the last when it was gonna be my first six challenge win. I dont even think I've died against Yog before as i usually have so many stones and potions that i always find a way to win. I doubt ill ever get a better run than this thats for sure 😭

The best item of this run was actually the Cape Of Thorns, but I took it off at the end of the run.

I used a Scroll of Transmutation on a +10 Alchemist's Toolkit and it returned me a +0 Dried Rose. Is this intentional? I would have expected a +10 Dried Rose. (EDIT - This concerns Shattered v2.5.4)

Did you know that in a way the Cleric is the first hero ever to appear in the original Pixel Dungeon?

Pixel Dungeon had a different default hero sprite for about 6 days after its first release in 2012. This was back before the game even had hero classes, and this sprite was quickly scrapped and replaced with the Rogue's sprite. I saw a screenshot of this design back in 2015, and it was my initial inspiration for the Cleric in Shattered Pixel Dungeon! The design has changed a lot since, but it's neat to think that in a way this hero is about 12 years in the making!

Also, I now have an account on Bluesky! While it isn't my first choice, I have been happy to see that Bluesky has been replacing Twitter for many people in the last little while. If you'd like, you can now find me there as well: https://bsky.app/profile/shatteredpixel.com

(Image Description: A screenshot from the original Pixel Dungeon circa 2012. Several graphical elements are outdated compared to the current version of Pixel Dungeon, and compared to Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Most notably, the hero sprite is completely different in this screenshot, using a design that was scrapped shortly after.)

I've played with the Hostile Champions challenge many times before, but on my last run I faced a particulary nasty blessed succubus. It was the hardest fight I've had playing SPD, ever. It hit hard and often, was almost impossible to hit, but even worse, it healed itself! I spent six or seven healing potions fighting it.

Anyway, I had never seen a succubus healing itself like that. Is it normal? Has anyone seen that happen?

I have completed my anual Pixel Dungeon archive report.

i'm trying to complete the catalog since it came out and i have no idea what this one (squared off in red) is. i'm pretty sure the other one is the rogue's shadow ability (just haven't gotten there yet) but feel free to correct me on that if i'm wrong.

This is so op. You can also use a grim curse instead, but it's rarer. Glyph of stone on armor compensates the low level for scroll dumping the ring (it was originally a Ring of Wealth)

@pixeldungeon tried that daily runs thingy in ShatteredPD, had a good time, broke my personal record

These Scorpios just blocked their own escape (forget that Succubus). 🙃

Shattered Pixel Dungeon 2.5.4, android version, GrapheneOS, github version

So I manage to get the Talisman of Foresight as a drop from something. I have the Shard of Oblivion in my inventory (no upgrades to it). The description says that "The shard will also prevent you from automatically identifying equipment, but can be used to manually identify items that are ready for it." The Talisman of Foresight that I got has a purple background, meaning that it is unidentified and could be cursed.

I figure that if I equip the Talisman of Foresight, the Shard of Oblivion would prevent it from being identified. If so, I could wear it in its unidentified state in order to get the Shard of Oblivion bonus loot effect. So I equip the Talisman of Foresight. It is not cursed, but it immediately becomes identified. The Shard of Oblivion did not prevent the identification.

Is this intended behavior, or is it unintended?

Thank you for clarifying.

Development of Shattered Pixel Dungeon v3.0 is now well underway!

v3.0's big new feature is the game's sixth hero: The Cleric! They're going to be a divine magic user with a wide variety of defensive, supportive, and utility spells.

I'll be sharing most posts about them in future posts here, but for now here's a little peek at their splash art.

(Image description: "A pixel-blurred image of the Cleric's splash art.")

It always feels disproportionately difficult, particularly compared to the Yog fight. If you don't kill the spawners, you will have a harder fight, but you won't get combo'd to death in a few turns from bad luck. I was at ~40 hp before my last move.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon- v2.5.2, desktop linux, github version

So today I opened up Shattered Pixel Dungeon and discovered that my pastry had transformed into a pumpkin pie for Halloween. I am not really a fan of real world time influencing games in general, since it hurts immersion for me. I also do not like my items in my inventory transforming on their own accord, and I do not really like Halloween either. Is there a way that I can either disable the holiday events? Alternatively, is there a way I can spoof the date/time so that the real world never affects my gameplay?

Thank you.

AFAICT both are identified wands.

I tried other wands too, none work. I just got out from the quest and have 3000p of favor
