• Upcoming Updates - 26 August 2026

  Ahoy everyone!It's the final week of Ocean Survivors' launch month, and I'm blown away! The 33 reviews are almost 100% positive, AND Ocean Survivors hit a huge milestone of ~1500 sold units! I am super grateful to every single one of you who has played, streamed, or reviewed the game. What's next?Planned UpdateInstead of implementing smaller updates over the course of the next couple of weeks, I intend to bundle them into one major update. I am planning to drop the update at the beginning of October. As I work solo, this gives me some time.Endless ModeSurvive for as long as you can. The ability level cap will be raised from 10 to 100, and the time limit is completely removed. Additionally, more difficulty levels are added, which bring more chaos, in terms of numbers, to your run. Lastly, this mode will have its own leaderboard for you to compete on.

• Hotfix #1 - UI Fix - 6 August 2026

  Ahoy! Yesterday I received some bug reports regarding some of the menus being unreadable if you don't have your system set to English. Example for when the game detects and sets French as the current language.This is most likely due to me testing out a localization package in the game engine, having not implemented the correct words, and not knowing it would try to detect the language of your system. By defaulting to English for now until localization is complete, the issue should be resolved. If not, please let me know!Cheers,Ralf
