In our latest devlog I'm explaining how we bring you the power (literally) to take your base building to the next level (also literally): Use power relays to construct multi-floor buildings. Read all about it in the article below and have a great weekend!


Hey folks,

as you may know our base-building system has been a big addition to the game and it is by far not just a cosmetic feature. I never talked about many of its intricacies, so let's take a look at the power system today!

There are devices that consume and others that generate power. There are different types of power and they are visualized by power cubes. For example, this physical generator here outputs one physical power cube:

The cube tells you that in this designated field you can place a device that consumes physical power and it will be powered. Aside from power and gold there is another resource that you need to manage when planing your base: space. Especially in higher tiers you may want to relocate power. That's where relays come into play.

This can be especially handy when building a multi-floor setup. You could place your power generators upstairs, so they take up less your precious ground floor space.

But in case you decide to have them on the ground floor anyway and are a neat freak like me, please make sure to tuck away those relays under the floor ;)

That's all for today, stay tuned for more BattleJuice Alchemist goodness and thank you for your support!

Hey there!

While waiting for Act 2 translations, let’s talk about how we actually craft those dialogs: it’s a collaborative effort with some Arcweave magic to bring the story to life in our "monolog-style dialogs." Check out the devlog below:

Unveiling the final wave of concept art for our desert haven, "The Well". 🌵⛲️ The heart of the bustling oasis is the tavern, where tales are spun over hearty fare and refreshing libations.

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

The first part of BattleJuice Alchemist's Act 2 is now live in Early Access!

Journey to the desert and the city of The Well, where a new chapter of Juice's story is set in motion. We can't wait to hear what you think!

Here comes more concept art for The Well, the new town we are currently implementing in BattleJuice Alchemist. These are two more tiles of the city, namely the makeshift camp of our protagonist, Juice, and the shop of Stan, the local merchant.
