Hello everyone!

This is Jorge, one of the co-directors of Tunche with a new update after a very long time without much communication. First of all, I want to apologize for not being able to send updates more often or answer many of the questions that backers and players have left in places such as YouTube videos, Steam community threads or the Kickstarter campaign page, just to name a few.

However, this time I come to you on behalf of all our team bearing some very important news as a new update should have hit PC stores by now and… This is the big one.

Affectionately referred to as the “Enhanced Edition Update”, this is not a new game that you have to buy again or anything like those “Super” or “Complete” editions that you can see out there.

I can’t address this enough: This one arrives completely for free, and every single player that owns any version of Tunche on PC can connect to the Internet and update their games to gain access to the update from today (April 3rd) and onwards.

What does this update include? I’m glad you asked. Here’s the rundown:


The Dark Heroes


Remember all those months (actually years) ago during our Kickstarter campaign that our dear backers managed to reach some extra goals. One of them included the creation of a special set of bosses known as the “Dark Heroes” and you’ll finally get to meet them with this update.

Evil versions of Rumi, Qaru, Nayra and Pancho wait for you in the Jungle and as soon as you meet the requirements to face any of them, you’ll be able to find them at the end of any level by going through a new special portal placed right next to the one for the regular boss.

I must warn you though, the Dark Heroes are no pushovers and will be harder to defeat than any other enemy in the game, so make sure you are well equipped with your best Spiritual Cores and unlock as many skills as you can before heading into these duels.

New Endings (for each character)


This is something we have been wanting to add to the game for a while. In the original launch, there was only a single ending sequence when you managed to beat the final boss. This time, things have changed a bit and while you still have the classic ending, if you manage to collect all 4 story comics for a character and beat their deadly Dark Hero version, you will get to see an extra epilogue comic sequence, exclusively for that character, once you defeat the final boss.

There is one different epilogue for each one of our heroes, so you can play and find out what happens with each one of them after the adventure ends.

Also, while Hat Kid does not have a Dark Hero version of herself, you can just collect all 4 of her story comics and defeat the final boss to see her special, and quite moving, ending.

Extra Stuff


While the previous two are the biggest parts of the update, that’s not all. We have changed the balance of the game so that you can go through some of the longest levels a bit faster, including the first one. So if you just hated dying right before the final boss and having to start from the beginning again, now you will be able to go through the first levels a lot faster and get back right to where you were. But if you love a challenge, don’t worry, this doesn’t mean you’ll be able to breeze through the game as all enemy types and enemies will still be there waiting for you, so if you die, don’t forget to get stronger at the starting camp before trying again.
______________

Just some final words before leaving so you can go play Tunche.

On behalf of all of Tunche’s development team, I want to thank you all for playing the game and I hope you really enjoy this new “Enhanced Edition” free update. We put a lot of effort and heart into the new bosses and also a lot of caring into the new endings.

This is our big goodbye to this beautiful world we created and launched back in November 2021. The development of Tunche has been long and full of hardships, including a global pandemic that changed the way we worked at LEAP Game Studios.

However, we never forgot about the promise we made to those backers that made this game possible and while some promises still need to be fulfilled (like the imminent arrival of the long delayed physical rewards for some backers) this new update is the last piece of content that will go into the game. While we will monitor it in case we need to fix any bugs that might have escaped through our fingers, this is Tunche’s Final Form.

Our designers, artists, programmers, composers and everyone else behind this title are now moving onto new projects and I’m sure you will be hearing about them very soon. But for now, this is goodbye to the Amazonian Jungle, to Rumi, Nayra, Qaru, Pancho, our little guest Hat Kid and all the other characters that have made this game so special.

Once again, to those that helped us launch Tunche and everyone who has spent some of their valuable time playing it, thank you very much and I hope to see you again in the future, in another adventure with new heroes, enemies and a lot of fun.

Best,
Jorge
