The board is set, the pieces are moving.

Nearly three years ago I uttered those same words when releasing the first beta of ToME4.
Before that there were 20 closed alphas and since then 43 betas and 4 RC releases, all played and loved by an increasing number of players, now over ten thousand.
During all this time my goal has never changed: to build a game that is both deep and complex but also fun and as accessible as possible. I have never believed in grinding, and have in many cases gone against the "traditional roguelike way" and I have always done it with those goals in mind.
Today is payoff time! For three years I have worked extremely hard on this game because I fell in love with it and I am blessed because others did too: great, fun, nice people; some of which also helped in the making of the game; each in their own way. To them, and to all my players, I send a huge "Thanks, I love you girls and guys!"

Without further annoying chit-chat, and with immense pleasure, I give you: Tales of Maj'Eyal 1.0.0
Go download it from http://te4.org/

If you wish to help me a little more you can do two things:
- Send a donation, they really help: http://te4.org/donate
- Go vote for ToME on Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=93674769

Hi my fellow players!

RC1 introduced something I worked on a long time: a donator-only class, the amazing Stone Wardens!

While I have not seen people complain about it being donation locked, after all the whole hugeness of the game is free for all, I want to explain how things will work.
I do plan to add more donator classes/races/... whatever; however because I also believe in free softwave (and because I know that even 5 euros is a lot in some parts of the world or for people in bad financial situations) I will do as follow:
Once a new donator class/race/... is ready, the previous one will be integrated into the main game, available for all.

This way donators get early-access but in the end all shall enjoy while I still get donations, because .. well .. I love free software but I also love eating ;>
The other donator features are just little "extras" and not content related so no change for those.

I hope you'll continue to enjoy ToME for the years to come and keep tuned for the announcement of V1 sometime soon!

PS: remember to vote for your favorite roguelikes on http://roguelikedeveloper.blogspot.fr/2012/12/request-for-votes-ascii-dreams.html (hopefully this will include ToME ;> )
