- Bugfixes - 29 July 2017
Hi all! It's been a bit longer than we intended but we've just rolled out a minor patch. The biggest fix here is that you can rebind controls from the main menu again (oops!). Beta Branch Update We've got a lot more fixes on the way but we're rolling them out gradually to ensure we don't break anything in the process. There'll be a new beta up on the latest branch very shortly with some of these. So if you want to try them out please switch over and the update will be up soon! Major changes on latest will be as follows: Support for HOTAS menu navigation Improved Xbox/PS4 controller menu navigation Fixed infinite explosions bug on final reactor with cluster weapons Fixed issue where cancelling teleport with Esc would open menu Thanks for playing! -Luke and Gary

- Huge REDUX Update is now live, including full VR support! - 13 July 2017
It’s finally time! The enormous free Redux expansion for Sublevel Zero is now live, including full VR support for Oculus Rift and HTC Vive! Sublevel Zero Redux brings a remastered campaign, difficulty modes, new enemies and unlocks, and much more. As the definitive version of the game we couldn’t be more excited to get it to all of you. It’s a great moment to finally get all of this content out there, and to have the VR version done! It was back in 2014 that we first had the inspiration for this game, and it wasn’t long before we were dreaming big and imagining how awesome it would be on the (not-even-out-yet) Oculus Rift DK2. It’s been a long road, as covered in previous posts, and we’re so glad to have delivered something we’re proud of. We hope you enjoy it! -Luke and Gary Major features include: Intro Campaign Intended to familiarise new and existing players to the game. It's shorte…
