- IMPORTANT: Clouds Saves are now Enabled! READ THIS! - 4 March 2024
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Cloud Saves have been activated for ADACA! To avoid save data being lost you must make sure you do one of the following actions: 1) Confirm your primary save game: -Boot up ADACA on the device with your primary save data FIRST! -Load your save game for Campaign and or Zone Patrol and save your progress! -Wait a few moments before booting up ADACA on your secondary device(s) to ensure the Steam servers have time to sync your cloud save! 2) Turn off Cloud Saves: -Open your Steam Library and right click on ADACA. Click 'Properties'. -Disable Cloud Saving in order to keep your local save files separate between your devices (if this is what you prefer). Or 3) Manually back-up your save folder: -Back up your save files on all devices BEFORE booting up ADACA. -In Windows, go to AppData/Local/ADACA/Saved and copy the folder 'SaveGames' to another location on your device.

- V 1.3.7 Hot Fix - 28 February 2024
Small hot fix patch for Episode 3 update: Fixes: -Fixed bug where returning to main menu after Ep 3 credits screen caused the game to get stuck in slow motion. -Made the scripted flare gun near end of Fugitive despawn after firing so players could not pick it up and have it glitch out. -Fixed issue where the new weapons in Zone patrol were not appearing in the shops screens. You DO NOT need to create a new Zone Patrol save file to access them! New weapons can be found in: -Quarter Master Shop -Shop Keep's Store -Rook's Shop. -Added angular friction to physics enabled boom cranes to make them less buggy. Additionally: Some players with old campaign save files may experience an issue where selecting "Continue Campaign" may load them into a broken save state on the level Calico Blue. This bug is due to an oversight involving the end cut-scene made 2 years ago and should no longer be possib…

- ADACA Episode 3 Is Nearing the Final Stretch! - 10 January 2024
ADACA Episode 3 Is Nearing the Final Stretch! A small but much belated update on the state of Episode 3: First off, let me apologize for the lack of proper upkeep. I'm just one person and I've had a lot on going on in my personal life since the release of ADACA Eps 1 & 2 back in 2022. However, I still shouldn't have waited so long to actually give updates on what's going on. Ep 3's story has undergone a few rewrites and technical issues since fall of '22. Also the post launch support for Ep 2 left me feeling very burnt-out for much of early 2023. During this period of burn-out I also began work on a new project (more on that later), as well as got my own place to live for the first time in my life; so its not all bad news. Lately I have been making good strides with wrapping up Ep 3's development, and I hope (fingers crossed) I can get it out the door this spring! Every critical level a…

Bug Fixes: -The gam…

- ADACA Beta 0.15.5 DevLog (Now with three Guns!) - 30 June 2022
We have come a LONG way since Spring 2020 when I started work on ADACA! The finish line is in sight for the 1.0 Steam release! But first, a LOT of play testing needs to be done on what will hopefully be the final Beta build! What's in said build you might ask? Well just a 99% feature complete video game, that's what: Beta: 0.15.5: New Features: -The player now has 3 weapon slots! (One being reserved for sidearms) -The player can now spend collected Artifacts at various vendors around the Zone for weapon unlocks, equipment and Lore Codexs. -Any weapons or gear bought with artifacts can now be accessed in a new Armory room in the Vakt Ship and can be taken into Patrol or any Conscript Mission! -New Zone Patrol Quests. -New Zone patrol Locations. -Main Quest for Zone patrol is complete! -New Zone patrol NPC quest givers. -Artifacts have been hidden in Conscript missions. -New enemies. -New…
- - Huge Zone Patrol Overhaul! - ADACA Beta 0.14.4 - 12 May 2022
This update primarily features massive improvements and changes to the Zone Patrol mode as well as a fair bit of new content! However, there's also been a good amount of bug fixes and polish for the Campaign and new player experience in general. All and all, its a big one and the change log is not entirely comprehensive; a lot of changes end up getting made and then not properly recorded simply because there's so many and most are very subtle. In addition: I'm beginning to be able to nail down a more specific release window, likely July. And ADACA will also very likely be joining a pretty massive itch.io bundle this June if all goes well. But more on that when I have things confirmed for myself. Until next time! Change log: Beta: 0.14.4: New Features: -Improved Main Menu. -New Sub-menus for Campaign and Zone Patrol. -You can now begin a new Campaign at any time from this menu. -Complet…

- ADACA Demo Will Remain Available - 28 February 2022
Thank you everyone who played the ADACA Demo this Next Fest! During the event I received loads of positive comments and helpful feedback from some of the hundreds of lovely people who gave my game's demo a try! As you're likely aware, this year's Next Fest was completely packed with some amazing demos; so there's a genuine concern that many players won't get a chance to try out every game they were interested in. So, I have decided to keep the Steam Demo for ADACA available to play indefinitely, beyond the end of Next Fest, giving anyone else interested in trying my game out more opportunity to do so! As for all the feedback and comments, don't you worry: the main development branch of ADACA has already begun to receive updates and bug-fixes to address many of the concerns brought up by players this week. This game is still very much in development, and has plenty of improvements and ov…
