- A Heartfelt Thank You and Free Keys to my New Horror Game - 8 January 2024
Hello everyone, I want to start off by saying thank you for buying badlands. I know for some of you it did not meet your expectations and I completely understand that. I have the spent the last year trying to improve my skills as an indie developer and I will continue to try and improve. As a thank you for everyone that have bought badlands, I want to offer free steam keys to my new single player horror game Dark Rift. Right now it is in beta testing, so if you would like to participate in that and provide feedback you only need to join my discord at https://discord.gg/UuqpJMUfQz . For those that just want a free release copy of Dark Rift, the estimated release date is sometime in March. All you would have to do is join my discord and ask for a steam key when Dark Rift is released. Once again thank you all for your support of this amateur indie dev and hopefully Dark Rift and any future…

- Billionaire Bunkers Update - 25 November 2022
Hello everyone! Here it is, the anticipated Billionaire Bunkers Update. Have fun. Wastelanders have known about these bunkers for years; however, the few that have been able to access them have never returned. What mysteries, dangers, or treasures await you in these metal death traps? Billionaire Bunker can be accessed from paradise or new hope maps. The bunkers are unique to each area. To access the bunker a player must kill both Bunker Bill and Marauder Matt and give their slayer tokens to the rfid vending machine. The machine can be found in Tajit in New Hope or next to Hank in Paradise. Use the RFID keycard to open the Bunker blast doors. The bunkers are rather large be sure to bring plenty of ammo and healing items. Also putting a bed spawn outside the bunker would be wise.

- Badlands Update 16 September 2022 - 16 September 2022
Hello everyone. Thank you for purchasing and playing Badlands. To set some expectations, I plan on weekly updates to Badlands for the foreseeable future. The biggest change in this update is the increased damage by ranged Blood Eaters and Doom Stalkers; however, they also have 20% less health. Using cover and getting the early initialize (by not getting spotted first) will be more important. If you would like to help guide the development of Badlands, you can join my Discord (link on the store page). Have a great weekend. Added additional players starts and optimized/changed buildings in Paradise Sped up de-spawn rate of trees and rocks after harvesting Chat windows can now be minimized with the default key J Ranged Blood Eaters and Doom Stalkers are more lethal but also have less health on Paradise.
