Day of Dragons is in Early Access and barely qualifies as a game, but that hasn’t stopped developer Beawesome Games from teasing additional income generators in the form of paid DLC dragons.
Beawesome Games is taking some flak from their community regarding recent teasers for the “Blitz Striker Amphithere,” a paid DLC dragon set to release in Q3/Q4 2020 for the low low cost of $5.99. Despite raising over half a million dollars and being on the top selling list in December on Steam, Day of Dragons currently stands with three dragons all of which are placeholders in the form of bought premade assets from the Unreal store.
Some of the angry sentiment comes from Kickstarter backers who are upset that Beawesome is advertising paid DLC dragons when the dragons that people had already paid money for as part of the game’s Kickstarter campaign are nowhere in sight. Additionally, others are taking umbrage with Beawesome teasing paid DLC dragons when they have yet to finish a single dragon that was not bought from the Unreal engine store. Beawesome has claimed that there are over a dozen dragons in development or scheduled for development. There are seven Kickstarter-exclusive dragons.
All of that of course is meaningless since if you look at the latest developer list on the Day of Dragons Discord, you’ll see that they do not have a character rigger/animator or a visual FX artist on staff. For now backers will have to make do with what they were given. A glorified tech demo. One run by a man of dubious ethics.
