Guns of Icarus Online - Inkjet
Hey there Engineers, Pilots, and Gunners!
This year we're celebrating our 10th birthday! 10 years of airships, rams, explosions, and friends.



A Note from Us Devs
To all the privateers, captains, and crew that have ever braved the skies over the wastelands, we want to thank you from the bottom of our souls for supporting us over the last decade.

A decade! Before we set out, we had a dream of making something that people hadn’t quite experienced before, but we certainly didn’t imagine that 10 years later, people would still be playing and supporting the game. Thank you for making our dream come true.

When we started, we had just been digging out a predatory publisher relationship, and we released Guns on the day of a category 3 hurricane. We honestly weren’t sure if we were going to make it or even be able to support the game. Many times I have had those life flashing before my eyes moments - servers blown up, DDoS’ed, hurricane, studio space burnt down, etc. Each time, we found strength and comfort in everyone’s support. All the interactions on forums and at conventions, all the late nights we spent with you in game, chit-chatting about life in the lobbies of Icarus, they mattered, and they kept us going.

When matches did start, it was amazing to see how much creativity and teamwork were possible, way beyond our imaginations and machinations. The thousands of feedback we worked on with you turned into close to 6.5M matches played, 24M ships destroyed, and 8.8B shots fired in the skies. These stats still look surreal to us.

In the last few years, we’ve had to shift our focus to create new game experiences such as Hamsterdam, Embr, and now Wildmender, in order to survive as a team and studio. We’ve handed the reins of game management to our interns, moderators, CAs, and dedicated players. We wanted to take a moment to thank them for all their support - Richard LeMoon, Portable Grump, Lysanya, Kajros, Loosepolygon, Alpha Sierra, Infinity Omelette, Delorum, Josie. Nerdhector, -Genesis, D.Strought, Zetnus, MaddBoi, Abby, Mr Trickery, Nedsvart, Sandy Hawkins, Tindwunnel, Frostbound, Teaco, Psi Crow, Saldarim, Bookkeepper, Krybon, Captainjan, Sprinkler, Ortagon, Chickenrun, Ambiorix, Coldcurse, FrozenHotSauce, Guras, Huskyneer, Mr.Moonwalker, Zyem, and others. We would not have gotten this far without you. Thank you for everything!

We made this game for you, and we’re so thankful that 10 years after release, we get to write this note. To more years in the skies!



Giveaway Event
To celebrate this improbably and special milestone, we're giving away a big pack of goodies, including:

    A helmet worn by Roman Centurions -- Roman military officers who held command of 100 Roman Legionaries. Many, many years and a few apocalyptic events later, some airship captains and crew wear these as a tribute to those ancient warriors.

Welcome Airship Captains and Crew, to the Spring Update!

We have lot of new cosmetic options, balance changes, and more!

Cosmetics:
Crusader armor is now paintable instead of its balloon. Paint responsibly.


Dyes
Spring is in the air! And with it, some lovely Pastel colors that will be given out via events and quests.


Decals
Many new workshop decals. 12 new decals from Broken Hammer Games, 6 of which are full color.


Badges
New badges for Sunday Community Skirmish for their 300th event! Two badges for Chaos (distribution to be determined by Chaos staff)! One badge for Crewcible!

One new Profile Picture: Gem in the Rough. A lovely emerald Junker. Player submitted. Want to see more? Submit your own!


New Voicepack
Kestril’s over the top classic stereotype Pirate voice added! Be a scourge of the skies, matey!

New Map
Sunken Reach Rumpus is a new 4v4/Brawl map!. Tear up the pipes and landscape on this 2 and 4 team PvP adaptation of Sunken Reach.

And More!
  • Most costumes can now be used by any class. They must still be earned through class progression.
  • The Workshop is now accepting colored decals.

Balance:
  • Wall Rose
    An alternate armed version of Wall Maria that dislikes anyone being near it. Two large force guns will hammer any ship that gets too close. First use will be on the modified Scars of Lutessa map (see below). Image shows the new, more hefty wall model.

  • Wall Maria - added end caps and more bracing, adjusted collision hitboxes, and added an internal device to discourage trying to ram through the wall. Damage taken reduced. Walls will be harder to kill now
  • AI Emplacement tool adjusted. This is the tool used exclusively by AA turrets and walls. It will now put out fires and repair at a rate similar to the failsafe
  • Boss Hades changed from chain to cluster Hades. Less dangerous mid to long range, more dangerous close range
  • AI enemy extinguisher changed to prevent fire locking
  • Adjusted Anglean Frigate mass and movement.
  • Small adjustment to Anglean Corvette hitboxes.
  • Duel at Dawn expanded 500 meters to a 4x4 grid from a 3x3 grid and new map image added. Wind removed and spawns moved further away from each other
  • Crew AI have increased accuracy on guns
  • Scars of Lutessa changed from Intercept to Assault with some trial changes. Players now start in the opposite corner and travel to the dam. This Assault will have AA turrets and Walls that block the path to the next base. This is a very challenging map. We will tune this map with live feedback.
  • Shrike hitboxes changed to better fit the model
  • PvE: Armor kit lasts until destroyed. Does not degrade noticeably over time

Fixes:
  • Clarified Tempest missile description
  • 3v3 added to Misty Mutiny
  • 3v3 added to Misty Mutiny
  • Adjusted Squid decal position, size, and rotation for better viewability
  • Loading image and map for Batcave Returns cave map concept testbed
  • Fixed misplaced flag on Valentine Crusader theme
  • Fixed Embr theme axe misplacement on Spire and Pyramidion
  • Fixed overlapping/misplaced lanterns/banners on Royal theme on several ships
  • Adjusted ladders on all ships with reported consistent problems

  • Submit images for profile pictures. This can be done via Discord, forum, or email.
  • Try out the workshop. Submit decals, hats, goggles, and voicepacks for vetting.
  • Check out Discord to contribute to two new community projects, a ship theme and a new map.

We're so excited to announce that frantic, frenetic, firefighting multiplayer Embr launches on Early Access for Steam today!

With Embr, we set out to shine a satirical light on the gig-economy - not in terms of the people making those deliveries and driving those taxis, but rather the companies at the top powering this particular brand of venture capitalism and deregulation.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1062830/Embr/

On a gameplay basis, we also wanted to see just what mayhem would occur if the untrained masses headed out with a hose and tried to put out fires in the same way people deliver take-out or drive people around in makeshift taxis. The end result is fun, frenetic, and just as barmy as we thought it would be. It just makes you appreciate what a difficult and almost impossible job real-life firefighters do.



Embr launches on Steam Early Access today for $19.99/€19.99/£17.99 with a 20% discount in launch week. You can expect multiple free major content drops in the months after launch significantly expanding the game. We'll also continue to diligently work with the community to further shape the Embr experience based on feedback and suggestions. Having trouble? Get in touch!

It's amazing to finally get Embr into your hands during Early Access. Let us know what you think!
