Optimized game loading

Improved enemy spawning to reduce level loading time

Bug: Collector It never stopped because the speed didn't change after dying.

• Workers have been added to some buildings. These can be security guards, laborers, salespeople, etc. Currently they serve as an “aquarium” role, with mechanics to be added later;

• When a product is sold, the funds go into the enterprise's storage;

• An enterprise now has a "Balance" field that shows the amount of funds available, which can be withdrawn by the player in their inventory;

• When cashing out gold, tax is automatically deducted, set by the owner of the region (village, city, etc.);

• The production warehouse can be replenished manually. Items will be sold from it;

• The building owner can take items from the warehouse for free;

• If the building belongs to the state (controlled by NPCs), items do not decrease and the budget does not increase;

• Upon selling a building, balance and all items are reset to default values;

• A building owner may add a surcharge percentage on item sales for personal profit. Example: Production cost of bread is 50 coins. The owner decides to set the sale price at 200%, making the bread worth 100 coins.
  When any player buys this bread, 100 coins are added to the company's balance. The owner can withdraw these funds after taxes. Tax rates are determined by the settlement’s owner where the building resides. With a tax rate of 15%, the player could withdraw 85 coins from the company balance into their personal inventory. Thus, the owner earns 35 coins net of production costs.

Performance:

• Minor performance optimisations for smoother gameplay (reduce frame drop)

• Fixed camera flickering issue

Gameplay:

• You can now knock down NPCs with bare hands

• Mayor added as a character to exchange items

• Fixed game loop and improved mission progression

• Adjusted item prices for better balance

• Adjusted sanity decrease rate

Other:

• Added achievements for the demo (testing purposes)

To-do:

• Optimising loading times in future updates

Thanks for playing the demo! Keep an eye out for more improvements and new features coming soon. 🚀

Since the demo launch in April, I've been continuously improving the game based on your feedback. Here's a new trailer featuring the updated build.

I'm currently working on the second stage, the threshold, and aiming for Next Fest 2026 and Early Access release.

We are deeply grateful to all the players who have supported Steel Knight's ARMIS.

Your feedback means a lot to us, and the development team is continuously working

to further improve and refine the game based on your input.

Some players have reported that after clearing Stage 4-2,
the game appears to freeze and does not progress.

Please note that this is not a bug, but part of the intended scene transition.
After the event, there is an approximately 10-second pause before the next scene begins.
During this time, the screen may appear static, but it will continue automatically afterward.

However, we understand that the current presentation can be confusing and may appear as if the game has frozen.
We sincerely apologize for the misunderstanding and inconvenience caused.

We are considering adjustments to the timing and presentation of this sequence in a future update,
alongside other planned improvements.

Thank you for your continued support of Steel Knight's ARMIS.
