Hey rat punchers, Shattered Pixel Dungeon v2.5.0 is getting very, very close to being ready for beta. Sorry for the delay, but there’s a few additions over what I was originally planning for this update that have made it take a while.

One of those additions is region splash arts during the game’s loading screens! After teasing these all the way back in 2023 they’re now ready, and will release with v2.5.0!

    Actually yes, there are variations! You see the whole splash on landscape, but for portrait mobile users the game picks between 2 different vertical slices of the image.

      Interesting idea, how many variations are there

      Are there any variations for entering boss floors? I think that would be really neat. Like when entering floor 10, you get a splash art of a single locked cell or something like that

        As I mentioned, there are 2 variations, for portrait users. The game picks one of these each run and sticks to it, this is mainly because loading screens (except for the 1st one for each region) only last for a second, and so changing up the image would be very jarring.
