Steam Next Fest: Play the Crownsink Demo - Update 0.3.0

Dear Wardens,

Crownsink is part of Steam Next Fest, and we are very happy to be here. Crownsink is a top-down co-op roguelite for one to four players. Your weapons fire themselves, so you decide where to stand, when to dodge, and what to build. The free demo is the whole first world: six floors, five heroes and the Skeleton King at the bottom. Play it alone or bring up to three friends. For Next Fest we also put out update 0.3.0, with arena elites and eight new accessories built for co-op. The full list is below. When your run ends, the game asks what you thought. A line or two helps us a lot. Early Access opens on 12th November 2026 . If the demo pulls you in, please wishlist Crownsink! See you below, The Crownsink team

Changelog 0.3.0

Added

• Team accessories: eight new accessories made for co-op. They make you stronger for every teammate still standing, heal whoever is lowest, speed up revives, rally the party when an elite or boss falls, shield your team when you go down, or mark enemies so your teammates hit them harder. Each one also does something when you play alone. They are in the full game; the demo keeps its own smaller item set.
• Arena elites: every arena fight now brings in one large elite early on, with its own health bar at the bottom of the screen. Each world has five of them, and they come for you wherever you stand in the hall.
• A hidden easter-egg item. Thanks to Christian for testing it.

Fixed

• Bosses and elites now hurt you while you stand inside them, the same way normal enemies do.

• Several nodes in the Ancestral Ledger did nothing when bought or had the wrong description.
