Donuts for Deer Teeth news & patch notes

Endless Mode \ will be released Monday, March 2nd!

But why \ ?

I realized that while Endless Mode is fully functional, it's rather content light & unpolished.

You're only getting:

• 1 new game mode

• 5 new levels

• 6 new weapons

• 4 new enemies

• 6 new music tracks

• 1 new playable character

For this reason, I'm choosing to release it as a \. This means that people who want to play the game NOW can go ahead and dive in, while those who would rather wait until the game is feature complete can opt out & avoid spoiling it for themselves.

Please submit any questions or concerns you may have below, thank you!

ETA is late Feb to early March; I'm aiming for the 28th but you never know if something dumb happens.

Progress will continue after the initial update through March and possibly through April; there's a lot of smaller additions that aren't quite finished and need a little more time before they're complete.

If you have any additional questions, reach out to me and I will inform you to the best of my abilities, and once again, thank you so much for your support!

Still working on Endless Mode!

NEW ETA is late February w/ a playable version available to Patreon / Substar supporters in late January

I apologize for the continued delay, but this update has become a lot bigger than I thought it would be.

I am not only overhauling a lot of old systems but also including a ton of bugfixes, additions, and new content. I would also like this update to be as complete as I can possibly get it, with no bugs and NOT missing things I'll need to add in later.

I'd like to keep things spoilered for now, but if y'all want a list of upcoming additions and features, I can post one in a follow up.

If you have any additional questions, reach out to me and I will inform you to the best of my abilities, and once again, thank you so much for your support!

Apologies for being semi-radio silent; I have been regularly updating my other news outlets (Patreon, Bsky, Discord) with info about new projects and other various updates. To sum things up:

• New Endless Mode ETA: January 2026

• New Game Released: fertility_tracker.exe

• New Game Released: Lights On

• New Project in the works: Grail Engine

While I have been working on Endless mode & various bugfixes, I had to step away for a bit in order to put out some additional works to keep making rent.

Is Endless mode still coming out? Yes! And I have the time to polish up too, which means tons of new features on top of the aforementioned roguelike system. Endless Mode will be my main focus from now until it's release, and I will post additional updates in case anything changes in the coming months.

If you have any additional questions, reach out to me and I will inform you to the best of my abilities, and once again, thank you so much for your support!

• - I will be swapping up my work hours so that I can focus on clearing out my commission queue!
• - I not only have a some unfinished commissions, but also I have had a lot of requests for additional slots.
• - DFDT will still be worked on, just not full time.

• - Achievements! Because it's on Steam, it needs achievements!
• - Missing cameos! A few cameos got in their forms extremely late, so these will be added post-release.
• - Dialogue handler overhaul! This is mostly a "me" thing but the dialogue handler needs a serious overhaul.
• - Ending cutscene polish! I'm not much of an animator so these def. need a third pass.
• - Controls rebinding! It's there, just commented out since I need to reconfigure it for gamepads as well
• - More Mari Expressions! The system is there, it just needs more sprites!
• - Additional levels! Add more variety to your playthrough with RNG-based levels!
• - New butt sprites! I had originally intended for Hoodie's ass to grow w/ her chest, but didn't have time to make new sprites for it.
• - New tiddy sprites! Courtesy of BeePunz, I still need to animate these before they can be added.
• - And plenty of other additional tweaks & bugfixes!

• - This is the big addition :V
• - This will be a mode unlocked after you complete the "campaign" that will turn the game into a full endless roguelike.
• - It will take a LOT of work (a month, most likely) but will add even more goodies to the game.

• - fertility_tracker.exe! Currently in the works, this is a short pseudo-horror interactive experience involving, of course, massive bits! :V
• - Turn the Lights On! This is another short horror game and my first major foray into both Godot and 3D game dev.
