    Good News, Everyone!

    We've been working over the holidays to bring you something people have been hanging out for since the release of achievements!

    As some of you have already noticed, Steam Trading Cards support has been added to King Arthur's Gold. The set includes:
    • 6 Trading Cards
    • the usual 5+1 Badges
    • 6 Backgrounds
    • 10 (!) Emoticons.

    First, a warning: the Cards and Backgrounds share art - and are probably the most boring part of the content. We only have incredibly-tiny-pixel-assets to work from, and the required sizes are enormous by comparison. Sorry in advance to anyone who was hanging out for 1080p pixel tapestries, but this was one aspect of the system we simply didn't have the time for.


    The badges are all unique, new art with a KAG-themed progression - all the way from humble, wooden beginnings to a glorious victory, with King Arthur's Gold still being conspicuously missing from the game. We all know the real gold is the friends we made along the way, right? Guys?

    Anyway, we're very happy with how they turned out and hope to see some of you displaying them soon!

    Those who don't mind spoilers can see the badges over here! Those who do can collect them for themselves and feel smug, whatever floats your boat!


    The Emoticons have been faithfully ported from the game, with a few touch-ups to make them fit with the dark chat and community background. We tried to pick the most widely-usable and fun faces. As animation was not allowed, you'll have to unlock the ::): and ::D: emotes separately. I know, I know, the injustice, but that's just the way the system works.

    We're keen to know what you think of them, so hit us up in the comments and get collecting!
    (Also it'd be really solid if you'd go and smash the thumbs up over on steam!)

    Have fun,
    Max

    That's a Steam thing. You have to get booster packs and to get them you have to be eligible to get them. It's kind of retarded system, IMO. You can as well trade your cards with other users.

    As to the drops, read this - http://steamcommunity.com/tradingcards/faq

    If you bought the game directly from us (from kag2d.com website) then you should be able to request steam key from kag2d.com after logging in and going into user panel at the top of the website. If it doesn't let you to get one - then you're not eligible and don't really bother to contact me via support@thd.vg, as it won't change anything. And if you do, I'll just check our databaes and will tell you exactly why you're not eligible to get one and you still will be pissed, so don't waste your time.

    If the middle finger emoticon was one of them, it would sell for a lot in the steam market.

    Yeah it definitely would have. I'm not 100% sure but i believe there's no middle finger emoticons yet on Steam and you guys could of been the 1st to do it. Heck there's a weed emoticon that sells currently at $7.00+ but i remember very well it going for $20.00+ at one point.

    Dang, I thought about it but it seemed like it'd be "too rude" because emotes and badges and stuff have to be kid friendly (cause they're publicly visible). Should probably just tried it and seen if the valve person who checked it said no. Can't change em now unfortunately.
