I love in the thumbnail the beheaded doesn't care about being beheaded because that's kinda his thing

Don't cry because it's over, be happy because it's happened

Ngl my favorite part is the head customization, i can't get tired of seeing that goofy type head, and even better with more colors

Best action rogue-like in the WORLD, by my books.
Nothing comes close.

The story of how Motion Twin made dead cells is absolutely amazing, but Evil Empire MADE dead cells. You can even tell my their final parting message in this video. Evil Empire knew the community and what made Dead Cells tick at a microscopic level. I hope them the best in their new game The Rogue Prince of Persia and I thank the original team at Motion Twin that created Dead Cells. That small team have created my absolute favorite game of all time.

When u ascend to the top of the castle for the first time and astrolab music kicks in, u felt like u are at the edge of the world, that’s when dead cells give you the “feel” that cemented it as the best rougelike for me. It’s 1 hour per run, but if it’s a successful run, through all the curses and dis-disengagement, you’d felt soo accomplished, and gratifying.

I love this game so much I bought 3 copies of it.

Thank you motion twin and evil empire, the support.

Apparently, Evil Empire wanted to continue to work on Dead Cells, but Motion Twin didn't want this to overshadow their new Windblow project, besides being able to justify the "by the creators of dead cells"

You Can find the statement of Deepnight on is blog, who worked as the Lead developper and lead designer at Motion Twin.

This may explain the abrupt end of support for Dead Cells, knowing that Evil Empire had planned to continue making updates for 2024 and until at least 2025.

The problem is that even if it is Evil Empire who has brought all these updates and DLC for 5 years, Motion Twin remains the holder of the Dead Cells license.

And I also forgot that when the first episode of Dead Cells Immortalis (the series) came out, the Evil Empire logo was blurred during the credit. They re-released the episode without the blur when they saw that people where pissed of.

Man I wish Evil Empire got to do everything they wanted

Thank you, Evil Empire, for all the fun I've had with this game over the years. I'm already enjoying your next project, too!

[bigocelot]

I almost lost hope. I am truly glad there's still more for this game to give

[Roguelike_Enjoyer]

Dead Cells is one of the games that introduced me to the roguelike genre, but it remains the best action roguelike game of all time.thank you Motion twin and Evil empire for over the 7 year of support for the game, Every day I always try to win at least 1 run in Dead Cells, because this game still has a lot of content that I haven't explored and it still feels fresh.

[plasty]

Thanks for not blurring out evil empires name in the credits like you did with the animation. My only motiontwin game I’ll buy but I’m glad I at least had fun with it when evil empire produced all the updates as it went on. Good luck with future work

[premenband]

yall talking about this game as if you made it and didnt kill it earlier than ever intended 💀

[DanTheAssassin]

Thank you Evil Empire for the amazing experience, a shame that Motion Twin have become such a petty and uncaring studio that puts up a facade. I'm gladly looking forward to anything new that Evil Empire will be up to!

[JustaChomik]

It would have been great and all if the devs weren't forced to stop production shortly after they teased more big ubdates and ideas they had for the game

[allecszzftw]

I would've bought every single dlc at almost any price dead cells related. Won't be buying windblown tho. Thanks for the memories evil empire.

[Pererogatist]

0:44 this hitless player actually just used invincibility

[moth]

i find it funny they have godmode in the gameplay.

[SUPERLEAF]

Thank you Motion Twin for releasing this unfortunately last update. I hope that both you and Evil Empire continue to release great games with a huge player base.
