| Reforged | 2026-04-19 | GreetingsA few months have passed, and we wanted to give you an update.A big content patch is coming. We’ve named it “Reforged” because we’ve truly changed a lot of things. The story, the main progression mechanics, and the gameplay style will remain the same, but there’s been significant polishing in particles, monster mechanics, small and large menu details, and above all, performance.We’ve refused to release a new IP despite everything that would entail, because honestly, on a personal level, I hate when that’s done to me, a “sequel” that’s basically the same thing, just with a new hat.All in all, we still have about 3-4 months of work ahe |
| Major changes coming soon | 2026-01-22 | Hello,For some time now, since we finished No Friends Space, we’ve been working on improving the small details that didn’t quite convince us.If you follow us on social media, you may have noticed that we’ve been completely absent—almost like a dead, abandoned studio. That was intentional.We didn’t plan to say anything until everything was finished, but lately there’s been a small trickle of new players, and we’re aware that the game’s quality is, at best, acceptable (at least by our own quality standards).We’re reworking a few things, improving visibility, and overall polishing the small details so the game can really shine. If you’ve liked w |
| Known issues | 2025-10-24 | Hi everyone!We’ve recently detected some issues when playing with a controller. We’re currently working on a Unity migration that, besides improving the overall performance of the game, will also fix all of this.For now, we recommend playing with keyboard and mouse.At the same time, we’ll be releasing a small patch to fix a bug we hadn’t taken into account and that was blocking gameplay. Thanks to Leximancer for reporting it in the community! However, for future issues, please contact us through the support email, since the Steam community doesn’t send notifications.We’d like to take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience this ma |
| Minnor required update | 2025-10-06 | Hello, due to a vulnerability in Unity, we are releasing this update to address the issue. First of all, there's no need to panic. The problem was that if your computer was already infected and you were playing multiplayer titles or connected to a local network, certain malicious software could gain more privileges to attack your system. Since Doors & Loot is a single-player game, it was never at any real risk, but it's always a good idea to follow security best practices. Keep enjoying your adventure, now even safer. |
| Hey, it's summer, time to enjoy! | 2025-07-22 | It's hot, it's a fact and maybe you have no choice but to stay at home. So, to fight boredom, we're giving you this huge discount. Take advantage, and spend a few hours at a good price with our game.Also, we've lowered the experience requirements so that leveling up is slightly easier. |
| Small balance update | 2025-07-21 | Fixed minor issues with the UI for keyboard/mouse It has been slightly reduced the experience requirement to level up. |
| Anniversary | 2025-05-11 | One year since the launch and... what a rollercoaster of emotions. We’re happy to see that the game has received such a warm reception, maintaining a 100% positive rating all this time is a huge personal achievement, especially when reviews from countries like China and Germany have been positive too, even though they tend to be more critical. We’re aware that the style still doesn’t fit with many players, and, as always, our marketing has been almost nonexistent. We hope this discount helps this great game reach more people and gain more visibility. If you’re not sure, give the demo a chance, but trust us when we say that 3 bucks is a steal. |

| Improved combat, customization and more! | 2025-02-06 | Hello and welcome to the latest content update By last we not only refer to the most recent, but to the fact that it is the final. (Unless you report bugs and other things). We all know that the worst aspect of Doors & Loot is the combat, simple and not very dynamic, which becomes tiresome after a while. Well, we have solved it (as far as humanly possible, remember that they are very basic models and we cannot add flourishes to them. No, this is not Black Myth Wukong and it never will be) The entire item icon system has been changed. Now each weapon, armor and item has a more dungeon-like style and less of a casual mobile game. New models hav |
