Once you will use it - you'll see a skill tree and will be able to choose one of the options. There are quite juicy skills that you can pick, so keep these goons safe! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/c98ca73ee2ae574010b112fa2677e680a25a1259.gif

Update 1.0.2.8 | Better Call Antonio

Kenraldsteam_community_announcements

1054d ago

Buongiorno, Famiglia! We have just released a new update, featuring some long-awaited changes to the gameplay. Let's dive in! Here are three biggest changes to the gameplay: "I give up!" button.
This button will finally let you quickly end the run and extract some money, skipping through the boring court. If you ended up in a tough situation - this button will definitely come in handy! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/88562709cbd453915e1215ce7b5464b806f8296a.gif Changed districts reward.
From now on, all captured districts will generate daily income in black or white cash. This will help you quickly get on your feet when starting a new run in the late game. As always, central districts are the most profitable ones! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/562f0c1456bde418e0334d9a971fcc5ff46a9d03.gif Antonio sends help.
Many of our players said that they had a problem when all of their gangsters have died and made the game unplayable, as they couldn't afford to hire new gangsters. They asked: "What should i do?" Better Call Antonio! Now, if you have no gangsters and no black cash - your fellow friend Antonio Buonelli will send you one common gangster. This will hopefully solve the issue with being stuck with no gangsters, and even if not - you also have a "I give up!" card! A little sneak-peak into the future.
Hola amigos! We saw the demand for the Spanish localization of the game. and we are happy to announce that we are actively working on adding it into the game! We expect to finish it really soon, so stay tuned! As always, thank you for your feedback! Without it, it wouldn't be possible to release all these new updates! Please, share your thoughts on the update in our Discussions! We read it all! See you in the next updates!

Update 1.0.2.6 | LOTS of changes!

Kenraldsteam_community_announcements

1063d ago

Buongiorno, famiglia!

It's been a while since our last update, but rest assured, we've been hard at work! We've made significant changes to the gameplay, introduced quality-of-life features, and we're closing in on completing our September Fixes list. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/c0844420a035b998b7e5e0471b1edfee3abc75eb.png But first of all, THANK YOU FOR YOUR FEEDBACK! We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our players for the invaluable feedback you've shared about the game. Your input is instrumental in our ongoing efforts to enhance the gaming experience. Thank you for being an essential part of our community! Please, share your opinion on this update. It is critical for us to hear your feedback and improve the game even further.

Let's dive into the major changes!

Economy changes
We've revamped the in-game economy to address the previous imbalance where players had great amounts of clean cash but struggled with black cash deficits, often leading to crippling debt in pre-IOU rework builds. The tables have turned: now all salaries and upgrades are paid in clean cash, making it less available in the early game, while black cash is now primarily for laundering, as it should be. Some cards will still consume black cash, but you won't run out of it if you stay relatively active on the streets. Of course, we can't show you all the balance changes in one GIF, you'll have to feel them in the game yourself. We will keep on refining the game's balance, but we will need your opinion on these changes. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/18ab577509eb3f811c350c2e7f51311cc9421632.gif Bell indicator
We've introduced a special indicator above the deck, signaling when the next card you draw will feature a bell, eliminating the need to rely solely on luck. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/0daabd955f35bc992895aba404721fc936ba2665.gif Boredom meter
Addressing concerns about gangster behavior, we've added a visual indicator that shows when a gangster is getting bored, helping you better manage their actions. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/22552176d5732cddfc09742bf809228856bc137f.gif Manual Battle Card activation
This feature was already integrated into the previous version. Now, you can click on a battle card to initiate combat instantly. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/4c1c87864ee6c4daac232009fc8478734bf27f52.gif Client's Order Bubbles
You can now see what your clients want to order as they approach their table, giving you clearer insight into the impact of your upgrades. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/650504dc49e9771ed23958aab80123690d73b822.gif Tutorial Update
We've revamped the tutorial to provide new players with a better understanding of how event cards are activated and how the debt card functions. Try it out yourself! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/62db21a86b963c36555440ffc9a14d5a16d67ac3.gif "Game Pause" Checkbox
We've included a new checkbox in the game settings called "App Pause." When disabled, the game won't pause when you switch to another window. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/d55d386715297150e803c47b3dbe4a104a5b1bb6.gif This is a big update and we are in dire need of feedback. Tell us what you think about it, because we won't stop refining the game until it is perfect. We do care about the game, and we care about your opinion on it. See you in the future updates! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2247570/Don_Duality

Update 1.0.1.9 | IOU Rework

Kenraldsteam_community_announcements

1071d ago

Buongiorno!

We've been busy the last two days, and now we released 1.0.1.9 update, featuring a reworked IOU card and QOL changes. We received many complaints about this card, so we decided to change it so it wouldn't be as destructive as it was. But first, a little announcement: We've released the game's official soundtrack! If you enjoy the music - you can get it for only $2.99! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2566660/Don_Duality_Soundtrack/

The IOU card rework

In the previous version, it was probably the most frightening thing that could happen to you. It generated an unlimited amount of bells, it raised police attention, and you could only pay it once you’ve accumulated ALL the necessary money. Horrible fate for anyone who's accumulated a few thousand in their IOU cards. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/90144ffd4b73117531b4820e119d8cc4883add05.gif But now it's different.

IOU card changes:

Removed infinite bells
Removed generation of police attention
Now the IOU card will take 50% of the respective income money and will reduce the debt by the taken amount.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/a155d9d9f659062c7665e04400f7bd7e80ed230f.gif

We've also made some minor changes, here's the list:

Hints fixes
Battle card can now be played to instantly initiate combat
Minor bugfixes
Balance fixes

That is not the end and we will keep updating the game. Please, share your feedback on the update, We read everything you send us.

Dev diary #2 | The first of its kind

Armored Ameliesteam_community_announcements

1092d ago

Buon pomeriggio, signore e signori, we are Königsborgs, developers for Don Duality. Here we go with the second part of our dev diaries! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/272ea4a03fc31b8a676bd78d5aa43b9fb3d45c0f.png

About similar games in terms of setting, gameplay and visuals

We can’t say there are similar games as Don Duality. Honestly, the whole game was made on a clean slate without relying on any references. We initially thought about the experience we wanted to convey to the player - the duality of the life of a criminal, who in normal life seems to be a good citizen, but underground does dark deeds. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/f40aa4fc2ab643748d69997cb79e9e21073f2d37.gif

About the challenges faced during the development

There were challenges mostly of a game design nature. Don Duality is not similar to most tycoons (we can hardly put it in this category), so we had to invent a lot of things from scratch. It was also important for us to make all the player's actions through the cards as much as possible, no other way, so it was not easy to invent. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/d4f0e731a7d718c89734a6ec7c5e48940f20f4f1.gif

Some reasons to choose the GameMaker engine

Let's start with the fact that both coders in our team know this engine well enough to write virtually any 2D game. Besides, GameMaker is quite simple, reliable and can create builds for any technological platform. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/ca1a46460010f83936106a95e40b5a2b94aa38db.gif

What movies, TV series and books inspired us to create scenes in the game

The Sopranos, The Godfather, Ozark. Interestingly enough, at the time of the first game prototype development we were watching a TV series about money laundering. Perhaps it influenced the final idea of Don Duality. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/4f1a2feb38e18ee4a0793c41ab3dd283d989a875.gif

About the created factions in the game

That was funny! Honestly, There was no plan. We just decided that the factions should be symmetrically placed in the corners of the map, so the game would be more balanced. We placed the districts themselves so that the distance between the factions would be about the same in conventional squares. So there is no magic here. Although, based on the faction archetypes, we tried to place them in areas that fit them better. I think you can easily read the factions by their appearance and name, as well as their starting locations. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/5805b8bfa7077ab36b80a4fe63cc54ba1f6921a5.gif

The biggest gameplay and visual changes throughout development

The biggest change is the mafia clan battle map. Although we originally planned something similar, in the initial plan we thought that there would be no other mafias on the map except for the Duality family, but in the end we came to the conclusion that initially the Duality family controlled the city and prevented other clans from taking the lead, but after the death of the father of the family, the Duality's position weakened a lot, as a result we have at the beginning of the game a state where all clans are about equal for the control of the city after a bloody war. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/9eaff1b0abc22e792102f8f9912d00ac3e154b88.gif Grazie per your interest in our game, support and feedback! We look forward to your questions and thoughts! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43365106/37aa67ce68b7a07c4abce50ad7482be51287d9c0.gif

Don't miss out on the opportunity to build your empire and rule the criminal underworld.
