- Free to play - 27 March 2021
Hello, Daedalus no escape has reached a point where there is almost no online activity and no new players. At the same time I still have to pay and maintain 2 servers so that players who buy the game now have what they paid for. This situation is no longer sustainable for me as an independent developer, so I took the decision to shut down the servers and make the game free to play. The game will remain playable and it will always be possible for anyone to start his own server to be able to play with friends. It is just that there will be no more "default" servers with bots to connect to. This change will occur in about a week. Maybe setting the game as free will bring new players and bring a second life to it ... let's hope so ! Thanks to everyone who supported me and bought the game ! Cheers, Patrice.

- Update 1.0.13 - new achievements + bug fix - 16 March 2015
Hi, there was quite a lot of activity on the servers this weekend and this brought a bug into the light: Some of you may have noticed that when connecting a server that is running non official maps, after the map is downloaded from the server it happened that the game was crashing. This should be now fixed. What happened was simply that the downloaded file was corrupted during the download, depending on the network conditions ... If you still encounter this issue after this update, don't hesitate to post in the bug reports part of the forum. I took also the opportunity of this update to add some new achievements: - new online rank goals when reaching the 100th, 50th, 20th, 10th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st place in the leaderboard https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fapps%2F315830%2F9896c02a1e193ceb59e7f21db35b0eb1e11f13be.jpghttps%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpubli%25E2%2580%25A6

- Update 1.0.12 - Online leaderboard ! - 10 March 2015
Hi there, Quite a long time with no update so here comes a new one ! This update features mainly a brand new online ranking system. Basically each time you play on the official online servers, the outcome of the match will be used to determine your skill level ( using the trueskill algorythm ). This works versus human players but also versus bots. 467 bots with unique characteristics have been created and are playing on the online servers. Their stats and skill are persisted the same way as for human players, so even if you can't find anyone playing online, you can still play versus the bots to increase your skill and your online rank. Will you be able to beat the bots ? The leaderboard is available in the game but also on the official website: http://www.daedalus-thegame.com/leaderboard.php http://www.daedalus-thegame.com/images/leaderboard.png Another little update is that when respaw…

- Update 1.0.2 Available - 2 November 2014
Hi, the version 1.0.2 is now available. Here is the changelog: - gamepad support (XBOX 360 only) - new high refresh rate display option, to support monitors with a frequency > 60Hz - fixed memory issues, plus various bugs in the editor - fixed error reading local score file at startup - fixed various minor issues (typo ...) The gamepad support is brand new, it has been successfully tested on windows and Linux. If you have a mac with a xbox 360 controller and it's not working in the game (but it's working in other games), please post a message on the forum. The gamepad support is generic and more controllers can be supported via config file. I'll post a guide soon on how to create them. cheers
