- Amygdala - Bug Fixing - 12 April 2024
- Fixed an issue that prevented some doors from opening correctly in Part 2 of the "Beauty" Nightmare (In the future it is possible that the gameplay of this area will be slightly modified) These small hotfixes should not compromise the saves, but it is always recommended to make new saves after the patches/hot fixes to avoid possible conflicts.

- Amygdala v2.8 Hotfix 1 - 20 March 2024
Amygdala v2.8 Hotfix 1 In the Nightmare of Insatiable Knowledge there are several healing items, I decided to rework the fall damage General: Fall damage resistance increase from 5% to 50% General: Safe Fall Height(cm) increase from 50 to 700 These changes should make the Nightmare of Insatiable Knowledge less frustrating during falls. it is possible that this value will be adjusted again in the future. Nightmare of Insatiable Knowledge: Added a block that prevents you from immediately going to the end of the nightmare. Special mention to TheMrSark (https://www.twitch.tv/themrsark) for the official speedrun% world record for Nightmare of Insatiable Knowledge Beauty's Nightmare: Fixed an issue where the TV in the cell wouldn't turn off properly Nightmare of the Big Head: Corrected the order of symbols on the altar Nightmare of the Big Head: Altar trapdoor doors are now more visible (colo…
- Amygdala v2.8 - Gameplay Overhaul, Improvement & New Content - 19 March 2024
Hi everyone! This is the fourth day of the game's release, I'm happy to see that all the previous fixes made resolve most of the issues, both bug related and game optimization related. So in these two days I dedicated myself to improving the overall gaming experience. I've seen several streamers playing Amygdala, collected feedback and listened to all the doubts related to some mechanics, so...Today Amygdala is updated to version 2.8! An important note below: If you started the game on previous versions, you may encounter bugs due to the conflict between an old and new version of the game, this is because big changes have been made between one version and another, I therefore invite everyone to play a new game in order to avoid bugs. I know this may be frustrating for some, but it improves the overall experience. Amygdala v2.8 Gameplay: General: All general collisions have been improved…

Hi everyone! This is the second day of release for Amygdala and I have worked hard to promptly resolve all the various problems, today's update which is now available is the biggest and improves various aspects of the game, especially performance; The changes made are mainly: Performance: At everyone's advice, excessive motion blur has been removed. Streaming management of levels (loading) has been improved. The total weight of the game has been reduced from +7GB to 1.3GB. Other minor adjustments Bug Fixies & others: Fixed the "Rusty Key Mid Floor" key not properly opening the gate inside the Nightmare of Insatiable Knowledge.

- Amygdala - Hotfix & General Update - 16 March 2024
Hi everyone! Amygdala was released yesterday but some annoying bugs have undermined the experience of some, some hotfixes have been released and correct most of the problems, especially the softlock ones! Thanks for all the feedback, I also want to encourage those who enjoyed the experience and were lucky enough not to run into any serious bugs to share their review on steam, it helps a lot! Last night I also took a look at Twitch, it was nice to see the game streamed and also very informative on some corrections to be made! The released patches resolve the following issues: Bigger Keys - Now the keys are bigger it should be easier to see them, if you still have problems let me know and I will find a better solution to make them more visual. Fixed the bug in the "insatiable knowledge" level - When approaching a book to feed the mouth-shaped creatures, a bug may occur that causes the hud…

- Amygdala Performance Benchmark Tool, New Screenshots & more info! - 1 March 2024
We are now only two weeks away from the release of Amygdala! So it's time to give you the latest information and tools before release, so you're ready to face the nightmares of Amygdala. What will the price of Amygdala be at launch? The fixed price of Amygdala will be $9.94. At the launch of the game there will be a 33% discount for 14 days. Amygdala Performance Benchmark Tool Amygdala is a video game developed by a single person using Unreal Engine 5. Because of this the optimization is really limited for obvious reasons (resources, budget & much more). For more details, refer to the old "before buying" article. This tool was designed to give everyone the opportunity to test Amygdala two weeks before release in order to evaluate whether or not to purchase it based on its correct functioning in terms of performance. This benchmark test does not represent the final version of the game, i…
- Amygdala - Before Buying - 29 January 2024
Welcome to Amygdala; In this post, I will provide some useful information to you before you purchase the game. I highly recommend taking all this information into consideration before making a purchase. Amygdala is developed with Unreal Engine 5, version 5.3.2 to be precise, and uses Lumen, a dynamic lighting system proprietary to Unreal Engine 5. I will summarize this information on the Steam store page, but reading this post is still highly recommended; 🛠️ Optimization Note: An Independent Journey As an independent developer, I've aimed to create a unique and engaging experience, but I would like to openly address an important aspect: the limited optimization of "Amygdala". The challenge of being a solo developer is both fascinating and demanding, but it inevitably comes with its own set of limitations. Optimization requires time and resources, and working independently means I must…
