DUSK - El Oshcuro


Intruders! You have waited LONG ENOUGH.

After a little over a month of pre-alpha testing we are FINALLY ready to announce that...

The DUSK SDK + Modding Alpha is NOW available to the WORLD!
Why? Because you're all... WORTHY

There are already close to *50* DUSK Mods of all shapes and sizes out in the wild including...

Incredible levels:



Very necessary sounds.
https://youtu.be/5xpRWfvMt9Y https://youtu.be/nfBSz9xIFvQ
Some UNUSUAL textures...



The classics...


And of course... memes.


The OFFICIAL home of DUSK mods can be found at Mod.io at DUSKMods.com


We will also of course be supporting The OG... Moddb.

Oh, Steam Workshop? Coming SOON™

But that's not all...

You can already play the majority of Quake INSIDE OF DUSK.


You can start loading Half Life maps INSIDE OF DUSK.


And for some reason you can soon play DUSK inside of DOOM. (wat)
https://youtu.be/VE5uYZgoe5k
But this is ONLY THE BEGINNING.
What's coming NEXT?
  • Custom models (create new enemies!)
  • Scripting (create events!)
  • Custom weapons (chainsaws?!)
  • Custom Music (BFG DIVISION ON LOOP)
  • Full GoldSrc support (Play Ricochet in DUSK!)
  • Dev Console (Press ~ to win)
  • Steam Workshop (You know it)
  • Making it completely open source (DUSK is for everyone!)
But enough talk! First you'll select the SDK branch in your DUSK game properties to get on the path to
WORTHINESS

We want to make the DUSK modding scene as open and robust as possible!

So what are you waiting for?!

Start MAPPING

start MODDING

Start PLAYING

And remember...

We've said it before and we'll say it again...

THIS is only the beginning. ːbigjohnː

DUSK - El Oshcuro
Has it really been a year already? Wow, time flies when you're hupping around at 77mph, eh?



And we're celebrating in MANY WAYS.

FIRST: A stream!


This Saturday, December 14th, tune in to Twitch.tv/NewBlood to watch myself, David and Andrew play through DUSK and record our OFFICIAL developer commentary on how we built the game from start to finish. You won't wanna miss this.

NEXT: DUSK has been added to GOG Connect!


What does that mean? It means if you own DUSK on Steam you can get a FREE DRM FREE copy of it on GOG... right now! (for a limited time)

More info HERE

And last but certainly not least: the SDK and Steam Workshop are coming...
very... VERY... SOON™.


The first iteration of the SDK will allow you to load up Quake and Half Life maps, replace any 3D model, sound, font or texture in the game and much more.

But SOON™ the SDK will allow you to do basically anything to the game since it practically runs on its own engine now. It's going to get pretty wild.



More SDK info HERE.

It's all been pretty wild, in fact.
  • We can't believe it's been a year already.
  • We can't believe DUSK is available in 16 languages now.
  • We can't believe we're opening an office this year.
  • We can't believe DUSK still isn't out on Nintendo Switch ːbigjohnː
It's been a crazy, insane ride and we can't wait to keep it going show you what's coming in 2020.

There's not a day that has gone by in the last year where we didn't hear from you about DUSK.

So to the 13,666+ of you in http://Discord.gg/NewBlood

to those of you sending the Tweets
...the fan art
...the memes



We love you and WeHate.Money

We've said it before and we'll say it again...

THIS... IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.

Intruders! Been awhile... hasn't it?

Seems like we haven't spoken... in AGES.

Well, we've been busy. And we've got a lot to talk about. Because we've got a lot coming at ya...

First and foremost, the DUSK SDK (DAWN) is nearly ready to start being tested!

And rest assured, this ain't no simple level editor, you're going to be able to do EVERYTHING to the game. Change, import and export every texture, model, level, sound... you name it.

Hell, by the time DAWN is ready - it will damn near be its own engine.



Basically, if you can do it to Quake, you can do it to DUSK - and vice versa.

To that end: we've just published a simple API called The New Blood: Clot (get it?) that allows for exporting DUSK assets into .iqm format. NEAT. Try it for yourself, rip apart your favorite games!

https://github.com/NewBloodInteractive/Clot

But that's definitely not as cool as this sweet as '90s style launcher we made for the SDK!


But we'll talk more about the SDK soon...

We've also been hard at work on LOCALIZATION.

DUSK has now been translated in to:
  • German
  • Spanish
  • French
  • Italian
  • Ukranian
  • Russian
  • Turkish
  • Portuguese
  • Polish
  • Japanese
  • and Korean!
But for the first actual implementation we decided to start with the hardest one... CHINESE!

And it's just about done.

The next DUSK update, which will be coming in time for the Steam Summer Sale, will feature Chinese localization, a new LANGUAGE menu, and both English + Chinese subtitles for all the dialogue in the game - even the stuff written on the walls. Check it:






Pretty cool, right? Tell someone who speaks one of those 13 languages that DUSK will soon be making a lot more sense.

Seriously, please tell someone - this was a lot of work...

ANYWAY...

We've also been hard at work on the DRM Free (GOG) version of DUSK
That WILL have Steam + GOG + DRM Free Multiplayer Crossplay.

Why? Because the two dozen people who play DUSKWorld demanded it!

Plus we'll be bringing back IP and offline LAN support
JUST IN TIME FOR QUAKE CON.

This has been kind of a pain in the ass but it's almost done.
So expect THAT version of DUSK... this summer!

Meanwhile...

Yes, we're still working on the Nintendo Switch version of DUSK
(we showed it off back at PAX East)

https://youtu.be/OsVDRsLrdrU
And YES - we're still making a BIG Box version of the game.
(with soap and sickle keychains in it)




And YES - we really did get Nicolas Cage to wear one of our new DUSK Baseball Tees


(not really)

But YOU can get your own along with other merch at: https://newblood.games/store



And last but certainly not least...

For those of you who have been patiently waiting...


DUSK will finally be going on sale this summer.

How soon? VERY soon.

Better yet?

We'll also be launching a NEW bundle that gets you discounts on DUSK + AMID EVIL



And you won't have to wait too long for that, because...

AMID EVIL launches TODAY.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/673130/AMID_EVIL/

That's it for now, lurkers...

So... brush up on your Chinese, get your Trench Brooms out, put your DUSK Baseball shirts on, lather up with your bacon scented soap, and put a sticky note on your Nintendo Switch.

The DUSK dudes are comin' for ya... SOON™

https://store.steampowered.com/app/519860/DUSK/

TL:DR
  • The SDK + Steam Workshop are coming this summer
  • DUSK has been translated into 13 languages!
  • Chinese localization + English subtitles are in the next update
  • The DRM Free Version of DUSK (GOG) is coming soon with Steam crossplay
  • We've got new merch (GO BUY SOME)
  • The BIG Box edition is coming! (with soap!)
  • Console ports are coming! (with gyro aiming and co-op!)
  • MAXIMUM Action?!

DUSK - El Oshcuro


David gave the world its first look at DUSK
https://youtu.be/8X2sPPEKbqs
It wasn't much... but all the pieces were there.

And he thought things were almost final back then... OH WHAT A FOOL HE WAS.

Not long after that video was made - David sent me a test build of DUSK. He was a fan of some of my previous work and thought I might like it... and I didn't... I LOVED IT.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/4q7cn2sckfgta1u/DuskTestLevel.zip?dl=0

^ And as you can now know for yourself... it was all there.

The movement, the shooting, the interactivity, the keys, the doors, the puzzles, the secrets, the portals, the beds, the beer! It was rough - but it was awesome.



I knew right away that both David and DUSK were special.

We started working together immediately.

And three years later... here we are.

https://youtu.be/LbqNRDPd5_k
But DUSK doesn't exist in its current form just because of David or me or Andrew or even the rest of the New Blood team.

No, DUSK exists today because of YOU.

I told you all those years ago that I wanted to build this game piece by piece and brick by brick with YOU - our players.

Because of YOU - DUSK is the game you see before you.

Because of YOU - DUSK is a certified hit.

Because of YOU - DUSK is beloved by both critics and players alike.

Because of YOU - DUSK will live on far beyond 2019.

Because YOU... are worthy.



But we're just getting started...
  • Mac/Linux and DRM Free versions are coming
  • TDM, CTF and DUSKWorld content updates are coming
  • Language localizations are coming
  • The SDK + Steam Workshop Mods are coming
  • Co-Op is coming
  • MORE achievements are coming
  • New Game + is coming
  • Console Ports are coming
  • The Big Box Physical Collector's Edition is coming
  • New DUSK merch is coming to The New Blood Store
  • and IndieBox
  • The CD and Vinyl Soundtrack is coming
  • REAL LIFE SOAP IS COMING (wait, what)



And so much more.

And yes - we hear you. You want to support DUSK and support New Blood.

And you wanna know how? However you can.

Buy our other games, write reviews, comments, threads, posts, tweets, statuses, create art, shitpost memes, PREACH FROM THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN. Let the people know you support developers who do things the RIGHT way. Who work not just FOR you but WITH you.

Spread the good word of New Blood, acolytes!

Because we love you and we hate money.

Talk SOON™
