Hey everyone!

We're excited to bring you the latest update for Besiege. This update introduces three new blocks, a Length Detector, Axle, and Metal Jaw block.

The Metal Jaw is a bear trap type weapon block that uses tension in a spring to release an impactful swipe or bite.



The Axle is a universal joint like block that is similar to a ball joint, except it isn't allowed to swivel freely, which means you can use them to transfer rotational energy from one part of the machine to another, like an axle on a car.

The Length Detector is much like a rope, but instead of shortening and lengthening itself physically, it just follows the two points it is between always, and dependent on length it can output a button like the other automation blocks.



In addition to the new blocks, we've added a couple extra features to existing blocks including; a damper setting for suspension, a target pressure/height for regular balloons, and an often requested pre-extension of sliders.

This update also includes important bug fixes, primarily focused on the Build Surface. We've addressed issues where clients couldn't connect to the host's surface blocks, when the host selected the move tool. We've also fixed a bug where surfaces would lose their paint colour when skins were toggled in simulation, and a problem where moving surfaces outside of the bounding box would cause fire spread to cover too big and inconsistent areas.
For a full list of fixes, see the changelog below.

We've also optimized surface interactions to reduce their performance impact, like spread out their mesh generation in multiplayer when loading machines. Explosions are now less intensive, which means you'll experience fewer FPS drops when many overlapping explosions occur.

We hope you enjoy the new update and look forward to seeing the amazing creations you come up with using the new blocks and features!

Cheers everyone!

Hey everyone!

Today we’ve got another update for you V1.20, bringing a new block, a bunch of quality of life changes with a refreshed UI and a host of bugfixes. We've also launched some Besiege merch!



The new block can be used to raise your machine into the air, giving novice builders their first taste of creating a flying machine. The block works in a similar way to a hot air balloon, where its buoyancy can be increased or decreased on the fly, causing it to float gently at a desired height, and its colour can be customized.

Also for this update we've done an extensive rework of the game’s UI giving it a fresh, cleaner look, to go alongside the updates various quality of life improvements.



We’re also excited to announce that Besiege now has merch! Working with a number of talented artists we’ve come up with some cool stylistic designs for T-shirts & pin badges that are available right now on our new merch store!

We’ve also been working with Makeship to produce a Besiege Knight Plushy! Check him out, he’s so cool!!!! This is a limited time campaign and we need your help to make it happen, so make your pledge today if you’re interested!

That’s all for today, we hope you enjoy the update and we’re excited to continue Besieges development going forward. :)

Cheers everyone!

Hey everyone!

There’s a couple of things we want to talk about today.

Firstly, as you’ve probably already noticed we’ve pushed out a few hotfixes over the past couple of weeks (since the 64bit update), which should have fixed any issues you’ve encountered.

If you come across any other bugs while playing please let us know in the Bug Reports section of the Steam forum or you can contact us directly through our support email!



The other news we have today is that Besiege Console is out now on play on Xbox One & Series X|S!
Those of you with Game Pass can download and play the game right now but if you don’t then the game is available for purchase here!


Besiege Console includes:

• Singleplayer Campaign with 54 Levels
  
  
• 3 Sandbox Environments
  
  
• 68 Weapons, Blocks, Devices & Mechanisms to build machines
  
  
• A suite of Advanced Building Tools
  
  
• Workshop to download other player’s machines or upload your own to share

Unfortunately Besiege Console will not include Multiplayer or a Level Editor. We’ve worked really hard to bring all of Besieges features to Console but sadly it just wasn’t possible with Multiplayer & the Level Editor



Cheers everyone,
Von

Good news everyone!

Besiege will be coming to Xbox on the 10th of February!

Besiege Console will be entering Xbox’s Game Preview program on the 10th of February, and will be available on Xbox One, Series S/X and Xbox GamePass!



Significant sections of the game have been rebuilt from the ground up to provide a top tier experience while playing on a console. We’ve worked hard to ensure all the advanced tools present in the PC version, function smoothly & correctly while using a controller.
We’ve also completely redesigned the UI for Besiege Console, to provide easy interaction with a controller.



Besiege Console also contains an all new Workshop for sharing machines and has some cool new features built into it like the “Screenshot Tool '' which helps you to create an attractive thumbnail for your machines & even customize their backgrounds!




Besiege Console includes:

• Singleplayer Campaign with 54 Levels
  
  
• 3 Sandbox Environments
  
  
• 68 Weapons, Blocks, Devices & Mechanisms to build machines
  
  
• A suite of Advanced Building Tools
  
  
• Workshop to download other player’s machines or upload your own to share

Unfortunately Besiege Console will not include Multiplayer or a Level Editor. We’ve worked really hard to bring all of Besieges features to Console but sadly it just wasn’t possible with Multiplayer & the Level Editor

Another cool little addition we were able to make is Motion Blur, check it out, it looks pretty cool!



We're super excited about launching on Console and we're looking forward to bringing more content to both PC & Console gamers in the near future!

Hey Everyone!

Hope you all had a good time over the holidays, today we’ve got a big quality of life update!

The most important part of the update is that Besiege is switching to 64bit! This will mean players with powerful computers will see a huge performance boost when playing with larger machines, during testing we’ve seen up to a 3x FPS boost on certain workshop items!

We feel like now is a good time to make the shift to 64bit as it will put Besiege in a good position going forward, allowing us greater freedom to pursue more exciting features in the future.

If you’re still running a 32bit operating system then don’t worry! You’ll still be able to play Besiege as we’ve created a “legacy32bit” branch of the game on Steam, click here for a guide on how to change to the 32bit branch!
However, you will need a 64bit operating system in order to play newer updates for Besiege.

In addition to shifting to 64bit we’ve got a host of new features, improvements and bug fixes for you. There’s a full changelog at the bottom of this post but here are some of the highlights:

• Added more features for the logic system, including new gate options and support for variables in place of keyboard inputs, making complex logic systems easier to manage & track
  
  
• Reworked Ipsilon campaign island that includes the advanced brick system, present in the later campaign islands, as well as fixing a bunch of issues with levels

• Increased the number of maximum cloud saves from 1,000 to 10,000
  
  
• Added more level editor objects
  
  
• Added language support for Italian, Polish, Turkish, Chinese Traditional (Taiwan), Chinese Traditional (Hong Kong)
  
  
• Made UI improvements, New Tutorial system & a bunch more stuff!

That’s all for today but watch this space, we’ve been working on a whole bunch of stuff since our last post and we have lots more to talk about in the next few weeks! :)

Cheers,
Von

Hello everyone!

Today we’ve got another update for you, Version 1.05, bringing an awesome new feature we’ve been working on for a while now called “Build Surface” and some highly requested additions to the symmetry tool.

The Build Surface feature is a simple, highly customizable & powerful block/tool that allows you to create custom shaped blocks/panels for your war machine. These panels can be made from either wood or glass, both with their own characteristics that will affect the durability of your creation and how it reacts when damaged.

The tool uses a simple grid system that’s easy to master, even for you novice builders out there. You simply select 4 points on the grid and the tool will create a panel to fill the shape you have chosen.




Once you’ve created a panel you can then manipulate it into curved shapes using the advanced building tool. You simply select the advanced building tool, click one of the panel’s nodes and drag it to the shape you want.




The custom shaped panels you create also have aerodynamic properties which should unlock a whole range of new possibilities when constructing flying machines and airplanes.

The new panels have a health system that you can wear down by damaging them over time but it’s also possible to smash right through them, splintering the panels and sending fragments flying in every direction.




The size of the panels you make will affect how they react to damage or being put under stress, creating a more realistic structure for you machines.The panels also use the existing joint system, meaning that shapes you draw will attach to surrounding blocks and form a cohesive structure for your machine.

This new block/tool unlocks many more possibilities for designing your machines and makes creating complicated shapes and intricate detail on your machines even easier than before.

The tool is currently considered ‘Experimental’ which means we’re still actively working to improve it and give it a polish that we’re happy with.

In addition to the new block/tool we’ve made some additions to the symmetry tool that give it increased functionality, with two new modes that will further aid you in both building and editing your machines.
The first new mode revolves around selection and modification of your machine. When you select a block with this option enabled, it will automatically select the corresponding block on the opposite side of your machine. For example if you select the front left wheel on your car, it will also select the front right wheel for you.
If you use the advanced building tool with a mirrored selection, the blocks will behave in a mirrored fashion. For example if you have the front left & right wheels of your car selected and move the left wheel further away from the car’s center, the right wheel will also move further away from the center.




In addition this symmetry tool setting allows you to modify mirrored blocks at the same time, for example changing the speed of the front left wheel also changes the speed of the front right wheel.
The second new mode lets you perform mirrored deletion of blocks on your machine, for example deleting the front left wheel also deletes the front right wheel.

That’s all for now and we truly can’t wait to see what madness you guys concoct with this awesome new feature!

Happy building!

Von

Hello Everyone!

Today we’ve got another update for you, bringing a whole load of new level objects & Krolmar’s desert environment to Besiege’s level editor, and a bunch of bug fixes for issues that have been reported since the V1.0 release!

The new level editor objects are from the new campaign island of Krolmar, so now you can make your own desert levels of doom for your friends or the wider community!



We’ve had a lot of really useful feedback about the Automation blocks since they were launched and have been hard at work making improvements to the way they work on a technical level. Key Emulation will now work consistently meaning that low FPS will no longer cause your machine to perform differently.
This improvement will be most evident in Multiplayer, where previously lag spikes resulting from people loading in large machines were having a negative impact on machines that rely on an emulation system to function properly.
Whilst this improvement will make using automation blocks much smoother in the long run, it’s possible that some existing machines may respond differently with the new update.

(Shameless twitter plug) You can follow us @spiderlinggames to get sneak peeks at cool new features and tech that we're working on, as well as announcements about Besiege and any future projects we work on!

That’s all for now folks, hope you enjoy this update and keep on Besiging!

Cheres,
Von

Hello Everyone!

Today we’ve got another update for you, our first since Besiege left early access!
This update, Version 1.01, adds 2 new blocks for the newly established Automation category and some fixes for minor bugs that have been reported since the V1.0 release.

The team’s been super excited to see everyone enjoying the V1.0 launch and they’ve been working round-the-clock to get this next update done as quickly as possible!

If you didn’t see our preview development post, here’s a quick rundown of what the new blocks do:

The Anglometer
This block detects angles on a single axis, emulating a key press when an angle is met or exceeded. The block should allow you to create gyroscopes and stabilization systems for your machines.





The Speedometer
The name’s pretty self explanatory for this one. The Speedometer is a new logic block that will emulate a key press when your machine reaches or drops below a certain speed. You will of course be able to adjust the speed in the blocks settings yourself.





We’re already seeing some awesome machines made with the Automation blocks added in V1.0 and we’re super excited to see what you guys create with these 2 new ones!

Follow us on Twitter to stay up to date with what we’re working on, and see some of the awesome creations the community is coming up with!

Thank you to everyone for all the support and positive feedback following Besiege’s release and we hope you enjoy this update!

Cheers,
Von


Changelog V1.01-11100:

ADDITIONS:
Speedometer Block
Anglometer Block

FIXES:
Fixed 'Stuck on Initializing' issue by ignoring the RemoteFile logic when CloudSaving is turned off
Setting no emulate key will now not throw errors
Fixed World Conquerer achievement firing in first Krolmar zone
Valfross unlock text is now "CONQUER TOLBRYND TO UNLOCK" in title screen
Fixed some display issues on the krolmar level select in terms of conquered marking
Fixed altimeter height being displaying wrongly in misty mountain
Fixed logic gate input names
Making preextension work while bounds are disabled and allow intersection enabled, even if something is in the way to be consistent with when bounds are enabled.

CHANGES:
optimised textures for automation blocks
Made automation blocks with dials place upright when on top of the machine per default
removing debug log for falling ai
key in krolmar vault level ignored by splash force

for modders: Make LevelXMLLoader public instead of internal so mods can access it

Hello Everyone!

Hope you’re all enjoying the V1.0 update! The team & I have been eagly watching people’s reactions and feedback on the new content, it's great to see so many people having fun with Besiege!

We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive reception you guys have given to the new Automation/Logic blocks, it’s awesome to see all the innovative creations people are coming up with!

With that in mind we’ve begun thinking about what other Automation/Logic blocks we could add to Besiege and we’ve got some rough plans for a couple that we’d like to share with you here! (Keep in mind these are work-in-progress & subject to change)

The Speedometer Concept
The name’s pretty self explanatory for this one. The Speedometer is a new logic block that will emulate a key press when your machine reaches or drops below a certain speed. You will of course be able to adjust the speed in the blocks settings yourself!



The Angle Detector Concept
This block detects angles on a single axis, emulating a key press when an angle is met or exceeded. This block should allow you to create gyroscopes and stabilization systems for your machines! The angle the block detects you’ll be able to edit in the settings.



We’re hoping to get these blocks worked up and implemented into the game very soon, so you can expect another small update in the next couple of weeks!

Thanks again to everyone for the good wishes and congratulations following the V1.0 launch, we really appreciate it guys!

Cheers,
Von

Hello Everyone!

Today we are proud to announce that Besiege V1.0 has been released, bringing the game out of early access!

Version V1.0 brings the final island for Besiege’s singleplayer campaign, Krolmar. Krolmar is an ancient & mysterious desert island, filled with new enemies to slaughter, fortresses to obliterate & secret magics to unravel. With it’s stunning visuals and challenging levels, Krolmar brings a fitting finale to the campaign.



In addition to the new island, V1.0 also brings a new category of block to Besiege, Logic/Automation blocks. These blocks allow you to create automated mechanisms for machines, performing several actions in a sequence with the push of a single button, or automating actions using the various sensor blocks!

V1.0 includes 4 Logic/Automation Blocks, here’s a breakdown of what they do:

In line with our original Early Access plan Besieges price will be increasing in 1 weeks time,after the release sale has finished, so if you haven’t picked up the game yet then now is the best time to grab yourself a copy!

We hope you’re all as excited as we are to see Besiege leave early access! As always, thank you to everyone for your support and participation in what has been an incredible journey!

We hope you all enjoy the update!
Thanks again,
The Spiderling Team
