I've been hard at work on the shipwreck overhaul for a long time now, and it's really coming together. But there's no public release yet, I haven't even streamed it.


The first place you can see it in action will be
streaming to multiple platforms on Wednesday Nov. 10th at 10am PST / 1pm EST:

• Youtube
  
• Twitch
  
• Facebook
  
• Official Website

I've been talking for weeks about "rooms" and "furniture", so here's what it's looking like in my build:



All these changes really make shipwrecks feel more alive, more interesting and purposeful, and I'm excited to show it off. I believe this can make it into beta soon. For now, though, join us on the SGJ podcast!


A truly observant player might notice something in that image... "The most important device in the universe". It will be a key component in shipwreck repair...

Hi! How'd your week go? We had a tornado. In Vancouver. Our city motto is "Ha ha! We don't get tornadoes and you do!" So, suffice to say it was a strange week for us.

Besides the usual fixes and tweaks, we've also added some more variety to rooms and levels. The biggest change we made, to go along with the room work and new tile art we've done, we also made some big changes to how floors are dynamically created - if you got used to floors the way they were, don't get too complacent, we've made it so you can get some unique, dynamic, floor layouts! So pay attention to your mini-map!

Oh, and we added a few crawly surprises for you. Because at the end of the day, we're trying to kill you in the game AS WELL as giving you more tools to try and survive. You all know what you signed up for!

Here is this week's changelog. As is usual, post your feedback and bugs and questions and so forth!

For this coming week we are making it a Fleshing-It-Out week.

We have a number of additions we want to make to expand existing systems, like adding a new floor and tile art set, as well as more feedback from the game, including your... uh... OK, look, a small aside; Airplanes have long had alert systems using a woman's voice and way back when, pilots nicknamed that system a Bitching Betty. Not only is that straight up offensive, it's unfair! The nice lady voice is just trying to keep you from flying into a mountain! Don't be a jerk about it! Anyhow, we are adding a similar system, and we'll call her... Informative Ira? Gretchen Gotyourback? The point is, she's coming soon and she wants to help keep you alive.

And we'll likely toss in a couple more bitey things. We'll ALWAYS be tossing in more bitey things.


Update 1.0.3

Added

• New floor generation algorithm!
  
• Also, more lighting adjustments made and tile set content added.
  
• Two more monsters add, the Stinger and the Ghost Maker Psider.
  
• New pause and alert cues for when a floor trap is detected.
  
• Improved feedback when your inventory is full.
  
• Additional weapon abilities for enemies enabled.
  
• Unlocked recipe reward in searchable areas such as desks.
  
• You can now unload ammo from weapons.
  
• Grav boots enabled.

Changed

• Pathfinding optimizations made.
  
• Grenade target code updated.
  
• Option for expanded action list.
  
• Door health modified by floor.
  
• Device list limited to one of each type.

Fixed

• No more invisible enemies. (Not accidental ones, at least. Bwah-ah-aaaah. Just kidding. There are no deliberate ones either. Yet.)
  
• Breaching charge enabled.
  
• Hinge spike enabled.
  
• Door spike enabled.
  
• Glitch that allowed walking through walls.
  
• Potential fix for flicker glitch some players encountered.
  
• Charge Hub now works as intended.
  
• You can no longer zoom the recipe list in a crafting window. (Because why would you want to?)
  
• Envirosuit is now immune to radiation.
  
• Single-charge devices (i.e. improvised lockpick) use case fixed, additional devices in stack should no longer disappear.

Crafting Dead has been rebuilt from the ground up.

Version 0.2.0 is developed in a newer version of Unity with the networking framework Photon Bolt.

For the time being, content is missing. This build is to work out the core mechanics before packing on the content and properly balancing items, drop rates, and zombies.

Furthermore, servers will not be publicly available. Ferullo Gaming will host servers from time to time and notify "Lab Rats" in the discord to help test and look for bugs at a multiplayer scope.

Cheers all!

Friends, we see all your comments and working on the project, thank you for writing them, even very negative ones)

Welcome to part 2 of the Halloween Update! It has been a bit delayed, as we wanted to polish up the level and create more traps. We're currently in the process of revamping all maps, and we wanted to use some of the new features in this latest map.

• New Halloween-themed heist! Check out Pumpkin Harvest, and unveil the mysteries of the acid-filled graveyard.
  
• Added more Halloween-themed items.
  
• Added spike traps.
  
• Added rolling rocks/logs traps.

• Fixed some memory leaks due to corpses screaming.
  
• Removed the introductory text as it will be replaced by a dedicated loading screen for each level.

The list is a bit short for this one, but soon we'll be out with another heist and a lot of new obstacles. We're also reworking the weapon system so that Constructions won't be necessary, but rather part of a village builder system later on. Instead, you will find Blueprints scattered across the maps. Some will be easy to find, and the more special weapons and items will be hidden very well, requiring skill to aquire. This system will probably come into place within the next few updates, which is why the Constructions tab in the shop is still rather ugly and complicated.

We hope to get rid of Constructions by the next update, and gradually introduce the new and more clear systems to aquire weapons and new levels.

Stay safe and keep nootin'!

- Added "Sort By Date"/"Sort By Enigma" option to Propaganda
- Fixed Propaganda Dates
- Fixed Monster hitting you through the wall when hiding into the bathroom
- Fixed Black screen when using the binoculars

Thank you again for your patience and for all the reports! ːCotcHeartː
