Dungeons of Dredmor v1.0.10 Patch This Week?

After weeks of patiently awaiting Gaslamp’s v1.0.10 patch for Dungeons of Dredmor and its Realm of the Diggle Gods expansion pack, this new status update suggests that the ambitious update might finally be sent off to Steam, Desura, and the Humble Bundle “by the end of the week”. And, of course, they continue to tease us with concept art and obscure hints for Project Odin:

For those of you who aren’t hanging out in our forums (and why not?) Dredmor Patch 1.0.10 release candidate #7 has now been put up. So we’ve gone through seven of these now. So far things seem to be much more stable than 1.0.9, and I’m happy. I’m hoping that as soon as the testing Squad gives me the word, we can have this up on Steam, Desura, and the Humble Bundle download page by the end of the week.

Full changelog, and some Odin teasing, below.
