Welcome to our next Truck Mechanic: Dangerous Paths development blogpost. We are very excited to be back and to share more info about the development status. Check out what we've been working on lately.
Work on the game is progressing, we are constantly adding new functionalities, recently we added working options for graphics settings. You will finally be able to choose your own preferred settings, adapt them to the power of your computers. Of course, what you see above is just the beginning of our road, everything will change to a greater or lesser extent.
We have mentioned many times that our game is supposed to be more than just a simulator, so during your adventure you will encounter various problems, even those deep inside a mine.
As always we encourage you to actively comment and share your feedback with us. Remember that all the screenshots, videos shown above are from a WIP build they don’t reflect the final version of the game.
With Inked's mobile version launched in February, receiving many great reviews, we can finally feel comfortable enough to start working full-time on the PC version of the game. To celebrate this, we made a little renovation of our page. I hope you'll enjoy our new house on Steam!
Besides development, we are also deciding on the name of our newly upgraded game. The team wants a name change, and the reason for that is because that the updated version will be very different from the original Inked. The new Inked will feature an upgraded storyline, better controls, and more immersive graphics. If you have any name suggestions, please drop them in the comment section and let us know! :)
In the meantime, we are hoping that we can decide on a (re)launch date soon. We will for sure keep everyone updated on that!
Just like how Aiko is always close to the heart of the Nameless Hero, we also always keep an eye on the players. We have read and revised your previous messages and feedback one by one. We have devoted all our enthusiasm and energy to this game, so your support is our greatest motivation!
If you are interested in more information about Inked, be sure to join our Discord community, https://discord.gg/AKr5cDJeyR where you can talk about Inked and share your own pen & paper experience!
We are extremely excited to announce a brand new set of tournaments open to all KARDS players! The Weekday Skirmish!
The Weekday Skirmish will happen twice each month and will be a single elimination tournament in two timezones to accommodate as many players as possible. Each tournament will have a unique set of rules, challenging not only your play ability but deckbuilding as well!
So without further ado welcome to the FIRST Weekday Skirmish! The rules for this Skirmish: Pauper
In this tournament, you bring two of your best PAUPER decks from two different main nations to the battlefield and fight for the top for some gold.
Who will reign supreme as the ultimate limited format tactician?
Join the fight with two bracket start times. Join one, or join both for a chance to double profit!
Pauper is a limited form of deck building where you can only use common and uncommon cards. In KARDS terms, this means your deck must only contain cards labeled as standard or limited. Special and elite cards are NOT allowed in your deck.
Format and Rules
Bring two decks from two different main nations
Decks must ONLY contain standard and limited cards. NO special or elite cards allowed!
Win with both of your decks to win the round. NO BANS.
Creating this unique game we went through some hard times, we made changes and created time-consuming little details that make Down the Rabbit Hole so charming.
We gathered 5 interesting facts that you didn't know about Down the Rabbit Hole. So let's see what these are:
- There was supposed to be a room under the kitchen with a bunch of drawers but it was cut due to time constraints - All the textures in the game have a high level of hand-painted details - The Upside Down world was really tricky to make - our heroine’s Cloak was tricky to not go upside down - In early versions of the game, you could turn into a mouse by drinking a potion - Originally, you moved the characters by hand. You would grab them and show them the way.
We hope to give you more interesting details on creating the game in the future. But until then,
TOMMIE EARL JENKINS’ 10 FAVOURITE DEATH STRANDING PC COMMUNITY CAPTURES
Last month, we invited the incredible Tommie Earl Jenkins (Die-Hardman) to be the judge in our latest DEATH STRANDING PC community photo mode event here on Steam.
Once again, our amazing PC Porters delivered some truly awesome captures, so let us take this opportunity to say a big thank you to everyone that contributed. Our comments section was overwhelmed with stunning shots and it was a difficult task for Tommie to pick out only 10.
In no particular order, here are Tommie’s 10 favourite photo mode shots from the DEATH STRANDING PC Steam community. A massive congrats to all those selected and once again, a big thank you to everyone that took part. To our Top 10, expect to see your shots displayed over on the DEATH STRANDING PC website in the coming weeks.
As for future community events, we’ve got something a little different lined up for our virtual photographers that we’re still working on, but we think you’re going to love. Stay tuned for more info on that.
In the meantime, take care and keep on keeping on!
Username: Wýstrach. "I love this photo because it depicts Sam standing on a peak looking out on the vastness of the landscape in all its glory, and you get a sense of wonder and somehow the majestic-ness that lies before him and the journey he's on. So, it's great that the title of this is "Sam's Journey”."
Username: bad_fur_day1 "This photo reminds me of the old James Dean style B&W Hollywood shots. The bad boy essence of Sam Porter Bridges taking a well-deserved break with his truck parked. I can almost see a cigarette in this pic, and it wouldn't be out of place. Once again, the title says it all. "West Coast Classic" this could be Edge Knot City."
Username: YASV "This photo capture of BB is beautiful. The innocence through the eyes of a child. You can almost see what he's thinking. The emotion in the eyes is so real you can actually feel it. Almost with a sense of playfulness too. I love the play on words in the title. "Peek-a-Lou" like Peek-a-boo. Hence that playful side."
Username: by.Taylor Lautner "This photo captures the action of the boss fight with Sam and Higgs and I love it because I'm rooting for Sam. Set against the backdrop of the floating whales creates the strangest and eeriest feeling. I'm most captured by the pose of Sam in mid-air with his fist drawn back and ready to strike with all his might. You can feel his determination. Beautifully captured."
Username: elveness "Love love love this. The title is perfect. "Lost". It couldn't be more poignant. Seeing Sam wander through this crumbling city, devastated by a voidout. You also get the sense that you're looking at him through someone else's eyes, as if someone is watching him from a different vantage point and very low to the ground. Could it be friend or foe? A lot of drama in this shot. Excellent!"
Username: YASV "This is a brilliant shot captured. "'Route Zero" The loneliness of our porter heading towards the highway and without a vehicle. Perhaps the up side of this is, it might be easier to traverse this highway on foot versus the rocky terrain. Regardless this is stunning all around and I love it for so many reasons. Knowing Sam's journey, you can feel compassion for him knowing what lies ahead."
Username: bad_fur_day1 "This shot gives me life! Mainly because I can feel the energy in this pic. The vibrant colors the motion of the bike and the overall look. I would have this framed in a heartbeat and hang on my wall. Everyone loves the bike and the connection to Norman with his show RIDE. This says it all. I give it a big YAAAAASSSSS!"
Username: Yuric83 "OK, so this shot is everything. Mainly because you can't quite believe you are looking at video game. The detail in Sam's face and skin is so incredible. This person captured the very essence of Sam Porter Bridges, his overall moodiness and no tolerance for BS is seen in his face. The pensiveness in his eyes tells us that he's concentrating fully on his mission or whatever it is he has to do or has done. You can literally see the cogs turning. This is so lifelike that you get the feeling that his eyes will slowly shift up and stare directly at you. Awesome."
Username: C===|[ESP];:;:;:{-XNK-}:;:;:;:;> "This pic is entitled "Neon Disco X)" and I love it because it has an element of fun even though this scene is very serious. I did have a little chuckle to myself when I first saw it because it does indeed look as though Sam is walking into a disco with a body on his back. If only there was a coat check to leave the body until he finished his drink and had a boogie. The neon color is perfect. This whole pic is very eye catching."
Username: sevenlightyears "This pic is so full of color and beauty, it's hard not to stare. I love the way Sam is kneeling down as if he too is taken back by the insane amount of color and beauty. It reminds me of the Coral Reef, If you imagine this completely submerged under the ocean, it would probably resemble the reef. It's crazy to think that with all of the chaos and destruction around Sam, nature still finds a way to shine through."
