Secretly cursing @katkruger.bsky.social for telling me about Shattered Pixel Dungeon shatteredpixel.com. 😂 I forgive her, tho, because I found out she's one of the writers for BETRAYAL AT HOUSE ON THE HILL (3rd ed) boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/35... - one of my favourite co-operative board games!
Selfish of person holding a smartphone in front of their face. Screen reads "Shattered Pixel Dungeon"Box cover for the board game Betrayal at House on the Hill 3rd Edition featuring three characters approaching a eerie green-lit mansion against a massive red moon.

Hey folks, the beta for Shattered Pixel Dungeon v4.0 should be ready tomorrow or Saturday! Here's one final teaser, if you're able to get to the end of the vault, expect an assortment of upgraded loot! You can only take one thing back though, choose wisely! #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is 12 years old as of today! Polish on the next update is coming along well, expect the beta before August 15th! Here's one more upcoming vault treasure room with some pretty rapid fire traps. You'll need some item to get past them unscathed. #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart

Work continues on Shattered Pixel Dungeon's next quest! I'm working on the final boss currently: the Greater Elemental can swap forms, each one has weaknesses and attacks! Here's probably the simplest attack, a wave of fire with a convenient gap: #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

Shattered Pixel Dungeon's upcoming quest has an important room with a strange mirror. You can't take items when into the vault, so wouldn't it be nice if there was a way for the heroes to regain their signature items... (visuals are a WIP) #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

It's crazy how long every little aspect of game development takes. You're like, "Oh, I'll just fix this little thing," so you work on it for around 30 minutes then look at the clock and realize that actually 3 hours has gone by.

With a bunch of new pixel art coming in the next ShatteredPD update, I've decided to update the changes scene to use historically accurate visuals, and I've also added change notes from the original Pixel Dungeon! Current on left and new on right: #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday
An image showing Shattered Pixel Dungeon's changes screen for some very old updates from 2012-2015. The version on the left includes a bunch of new pixel art releasing with the upcoming update, whereas the version on the right uses icons that are accurate to when each update was released. The right version also includes a new section at the bottom for changes to the original Pixel Dungeon.

I'm still working away at Shattered Pixel Dungeon v4.0, for now here's another easy treasure room appearing in the upcoming quest! You'll need to make use of that pillar to avoid getting caught by the scanning sentry on the way to the treasure. #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

Here's two more new/returning enchantments coming in the next Shattered Pixel Dungeon update! Eldritch has a chance to fear visible enemies other than your target. Crystal ALWAYS deals +25% magic damage but will crack and break if used too heavily. #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

I'm also planning to add four new weapon enchantments and two new weapon curses in the next update to Shattered Pixel Dungeon! Here's two: venemous can stack up a lot of DOT but on a delay, and vorpal can replace regular damage with a bleed effect. #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

Here's a QOL life tweak that's coming in the next ShatteredPD update. Health bars will indicate the amount of incoming DOT by partly darkening. There are some other additions that will benefit from the player seeing total DOT at a glance. #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

I want enemy designs in ShatteredPD's upcoming quest to be based in the existing dungeon regions, which gives me a chance to bring back and old enemy that was removed just about 6 years ago, the inexplicably bearded dwarven skeleton! #gamedev #roguelike #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

Here's a room for ShatteredPD's upcoming quest that I didn't share in the recent blog. The waves of lasers can be dodged with good movement, but a harder variant of the room could turn the beam speed up and require a consumable to get past. #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

I've just patched Shattered Pixel Dungeon to v3.3.5! In addition to some smaller misc. changes, some enemies have been added to the tester area for the upcoming quest! They mainly exist to test out new enemy AI logic that's meant to better facilitate stealth gameplay. #gamedev #indiedev

Shattered Pixel @shatteredpixel.com · 01/02/2026
The upcoming quest in Shattered Pixel Dungeon involves a more stealth than normal, and so enemy AI needs some tweaks to accommodate that. 'Investigating' is a new AI state that gives you just a little more time to duck away behind a corner or door. #gamedev #indiedev
