- Чисто английское убийство: Обзор Dance of Death: Du Lac & Fey - 17 February 2023
Спустя несколько лет после релиза на персональных компьютерах приключенческая игра Dance of Death: Du Lac and Fey добралась до консолей. Даже несмотря на весьма холодный прием от критиков в 2019 году, британские разработчики из независимой студии Salix Games не оставляют свое детище на произвол судьбы, пытаясь заинтересовать более широкий спектр аудитории. Сделать это будет непросто, особенно учитывая специфику жанра и достаточно скромный бюджет в распоряжении авторов. Что же, тем более интересно узнать ради чего создавался этот порт.
- Dance of Death: Du Lac & Fey - Prologue and Chapter 1 Playthrough - 12 February 2021
London, 1888: The people of Whitechapel live under the ghastly shadow of Jack the Ripper, tempting Arthurian legends - Du Lac & Fey - back to English shores to intervene. Will they stop Jack before more blood is spilt on the cobbled streets? Victorian London awaits you...
- Du Lac and Fey and The Steam Awards... - 27 November 2020
Can you even believe this year is drawing to an end? We don't want to bang on about it but... you *shook* us, 2020. And not always in a good way. That said, there have been some amazing achievements seen across the games industry - and often close to home - despite the perpetually moving goal posts. Whilst Salix has been a WFH studio for a while, many of our fellow studios have pivoted to working from home and discovered that developers can still creatively collaborate, that team meetings can be done 'round the campfire in a favourite RPG, and - most importantly - video games have continued to be made and released *and* still loved by fans. We saw Guildford enjoy the world stage for the second annual Guildford Games Festival and we *finally* got a comprehensive directory for all the amazing GU postcode studios (and their mindblowing back catalogues) thanks to guildford.games. Our Direct…

Wonderful news everyone! We have a shiny new update for you all. Our dev team has been working hard on a range of improvements to make Dance of Death: Du Lac and Fey run even more smoothly for you all. In addition to fixing a bug in Chapter 3 that could leave players without a controllable character, this update includes visual improvements in Chapter 6. The achievement where Mary has a poor relationship with Fey will now also unlock when her relationship with Du Lac is strong. There were also a few minor fixes, including a mismatch between Thomas’ voice over and the subtitles, and some animation issues. Thank you all for your support.

Our ability to polish the game would rely on two things; time and money. We sadly ran out of both. As a result, our day one release simply wasn’t good enough and for that we are deeply sorry. Some of you will know there was an issue with save games on our April 5th launch, but we worked hard to resolve the problem and by April 9th it had been fixed. The following week, thanks to our incredible community, we'd fixed the most critical issues reported and resolved several major blockers. We plan to release further regular updates over the coming weeks which will refine potions gameplay, character movement, as wel…
