There was an issue with the DX12 API causing the game to crash on the loading screen when exiting from a mission. The demo has been reverted back to the DX11 API, in line with the Early Access build, which solves this issue. Thanks to Test.

Hey there everyone!

It has been a while since our last update, but we've been working hard behind the scenes of Sanctuary: Shattered Sun and we want to share with you some of the improvements we made.

As always, we have been adding new units to the game as we go along, so here are a few of them for you to look at. The Guard faction has some impressive turnout, and here are some you may not have seen before:


If you've been browsing our Discord or social media you may have seen some of these, but here they are in a bit more detail in case you missed them! We have some grenade artillery bots, some hover tanks, various new structures in the background, and of course the start of the show - the huge and menacing Titan we added not too long ago!


Next we have a unit with a new game mechanic we've mentioned in the past - the combat drone launcher! This building will launch attack drones at its targets that will shoot on them for you from quite some distance! Be careful though, the enemy can shoot down these drones with some defensive structures.


And here is one of these aforementioned defensive structures! These aren’t able to damage normal units, but are fantastic against drones. Try to guess how this one will work, it’s far from obvious! Good luck!




Next we just wanted to share this update to our Chosen titan unit. We've had this model for a while (you can see it in our cinematic trailer!) But we've recently updated it and given it some extra polish and detail. Now you can admire it up close!


Just to put it into perspective of how huge it is, here it is again dwarfing units around it. Check out its many barrels and turrets - those are full sized heavy weapons on there and it makes them look tiny!


And lastly we have been working hard on the UI for the game - here is a mockup image we put together. It's still a work in progress, but we have most of that working in the game right now! We wanted to make sure the UI doesn’t interfere with the most important element on the screen - the game itself - and so we are trying to make something that’s not too intrusive, but still easy to read and work out what’s going on. The UI is scaleable and supports 4K screens. This (as is everything!) is still subject to change so your feedback is appreciated!

That’s all we have for now, but we have some more exciting news coming very soon so be sure to check back here often!

What would help us in the meantime is if you wishlist Sanctuary: Shattered Sun. We are an indie studio and so sharing the game around and promoting it to the Steam algorithm helps us a huge deal. All of you have been amazing so far and we can’t wait to get the game into your hands as soon as we can!

If you want to see news far more often and ask us questions, join us on our Discord Here. We will be happy to see you and can answer any of your questions there. Bring your friends, too!

Note: NVIDIA users may need to update their GPU drivers to 531.61 or newer.

Hi everyone, the update v0.200 is LIVE in the main branch! As we have faced many technical difficulties in implementing dedicated servers, we need to change many core coding and system structures in order for the dedicated servers to work smoothly, and it delayed our ability to release the update on time. But in the future, our development pace will be more stable. And we appreciate your understanding and patience.

If you want to keep playing it, you will need to switch to the older version in the Properties>Betas>"olderversion" branch.

• Dedicated Servers: We've introduced dedicated servers to the game. You can download this free tool and set up your own dedicated server wherever you prefer! You can find the Dedicated Server tool in your Steam library, by searching Sunkenland Dedicated Server.
  
  Dedicated Server User Manual: https://www.sunkenlandgame.com/post/dedicated-server-user-manual
  
• Improved Game Balance: We are working on making the game smoother by rebalancing the overall progression. We've also clarified the technology stages and the materials needed to advance, preventing any unexpected leaps in technology.
  
• Gun Assembly: We've introduced a new gun assembly system where you'll need to recycle broken guns to obtain gun component blueprints, including those for crafting gun barrels, magazines, and stocks. With these blueprints, you can then craft and assemble new firearms.
  
  
  
  
  
• Remade two islands: We have remade Radio Island and the Mutant Settlement, and increased the map size and complexity, thereby providing an improved combat experience. This is the general direction we will continue to pursue in the following updates as well.
  
  
  
  
  
• Improved Underwater Biomes: Explore the underwater world with more visually distinct biomes. Our new volcano region is an example, offering a unique visual experience and providing valuable materials like sulfur. This is the beginning of our efforts to enhance exploration and set the stage for future stories, lore, and puzzles.
  
  
  
  
• New Items: Added a range of new items, including large scuba air tanks, fishing nets, batteries, gun display boards, portable repair tools, and even a bird-catching net.
  
  
  
  
• New Building Structures: Added new structures like roofs, triangular walls, hall walls, diagonal walls, and more.
  
  
  
  
  
• Updated Missions: We've added several missions, mostly focused on combat, to keep the action going.
  
• Balanced Economy: We've revisited all prices and item stack sizes to ensure a fair and balanced in-game economy.
  
• Weapon and Enemy Adjustments: Expect changes to weapon damage, enemy damage, and health for a more engaging gameplay experience.

In the next update, we will focus on improving late-game gameplay, remastering all the maps, and enhancing the overall combat and exploration experiences by continuously adding details to the biomes.
