• Update (V0.4.4.5) - 21 April 2024

  Quick update which lays out the groundwork for overhauling how the intro of the game plays out. Instead of selecting a starting kit like before you now spawn in a locker room at the bottom of the elevator which you can loot. This area is only accessible during the beginning of a new game. It will soon have a timer (~30 seconds), making you rush to get the loot you want. Such as in games like '60 Seconds' or 'Radiant Residents'. Updates Added new intro quest Added delay to quick looting Removed kit selection on new game New starting room in bunker Loot Vision is now enabled by holding Refactored Elevator System Refactored Quests Patches Bolt not moving in animations Logo animation smoothness Fixed Airlock transition lag Fixed cursor from appearing while transitioning TAA disabled in the main menu Slightly unsharpened splash screen

• Sound & Optimization Update (V0.4) - 15 March 2024

  Hello again, recently I have been working on the backend and small details in the game. This includes reworking the entire audio system to work with FMOD and Steam Audio. With these changes, many things in the game had to be done from scratch which delayed some gameplay improvements. I will now shift focus onto gameplay and replayability to make up for this update's focus. Thanks and hope you enjoy the changes!
