Breaking News!
Just a few hours ago, I discovered a very unpleasant issue — the server list display is currently not working. This came as a complete surprise to me, as I haven’t touched any code related to that functionality. After updating to Unreal Engine version 5.5, the online subsystem stopped functioning correctly and no longer displays created sessions properly.

Once again, I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to Epic Games for breaking something critically important in the engine with every new update.

I’ve made a decision for myself — this will be the last engine version upgrade for this project. From now on, it will remain on version 5.5 for as long as technically possible. Version updates have started causing far too many problems.

Right now, I’m working on fixing the issue with the server list display. In PvE mode, when you host your own server, everything works as expected.

Stay tuned for updates.

• 🐛 fame modifiers now correctly disappear from inventory after use.

Hey folks!

We've just released a hotfix (Build 1.0.8) for an issue where Steam Achievements were not registering, caused by a bug introduced with the 1.0.7 update on June 26th (last Thursday), meaning any Steam Achievements earned during this period were not activating.

As the bulk of the achievements in Axyz are tied to collecting the tapes, beating the high scores and completing the levels for each World, you should be able to unlock any missing achievements simply by beating a level in any previous World you have completed.

For example, if you collected all tapes and high scores for each level in World 1 (and thus completed World 1), you should be able to unlock the 3 achievements tied to these objectives simply by beating any level in World 1 (just grab the key and head to the exit!).

If you collected all the tapes but not all the high scores, you will only earn the achievements for the tapes and beating World 1.

If you continue to run into any issues, please let us know!

You can also jump into our Discord to provide a report.

Hey there Steam denizens, it's been a little while!

We've been busy, working quietly in the background to bring you an updated demo showcasing how investigation works in Spill the Beans. That's right, on 7th July you'll be able to interrogate our scapegoats in two of the fifteen total routes that will be available in the full game - and maybe see where the story takes you on the way!

And on the note of updates, we'll also be launching our Kickstarter on that day! This game has been a passion project of ours for the last few years, and we hope to use the Kickstarter to let us dedicate proper time to getting the game over the finish line!

Should you back the Kickstarter or help spread awareness, you'll be able to get some fun rewards like new customisation options, an artbook, and even the ability to date one of our NPCs in a special side story (goals willing).

We hope to see you back here on the 7th, for the new demo and Kickstarter! In the meantime, feel free to follow us on our socials.

Lots of love, the Skeletal Games team.

Big update tonight.
