We've added a new button to the Arena map that starts a simple team deathmatch gamemode with 2 teams against each other. Let us know how it goes! We'll be adding a bomb defusal map + mode soon.

We are still working on shopkeeping! These modes are just a way for interns to contribute to our game in a fun way and it allows us to stress test the game better.



We're mostly here with a few more bugfixes. Hang in there! And thank you, /r/lowendpcgaming gamers for helping us test on a variety of low end machines. More optimizations will be on the way.

经典策略SLG手游《七雄纷争》以全新的战争策略，气势恢宏的场景刻画，为您展开“战国”时期错综复杂的历史长卷。3D高清沉浸式大地图，真实参考历史建筑，只为还原最真实的战国。行兵布阵，兵种相克，以谋略定胜负!

Controller sensitivity was to fast so I made it slower.

Some tweaks have been made to the demo - these include updates, polish and a few changes.

Some content has been blocked off approaching Next Fest, just hang in there for 21 more days to get a hold of all Outmode has to offer!

I've been adding the following as per community requests:

• Key rebinds (keyboard only)!
  
• Mouse steering support (hold left click to steer with your mouse) - this means the game can be played singlehandedly, literally!
  
• Brand new billboards you'll find scattered throughout the world!
  
• Sound effects!
  
• Better AI driving!
  
• Tones of bug fixes and even more polish + optimisation!

I hope you all enjoy, and I can't wait for Outmode to come out in its full glory for final release.

Stay rad.

Knock-knock, players! We’ve got great news!



On June 1, we’ll be celebrating not only the beginning of a much-awaited summer, but also the release of a no less hotly anticipated Vanadis character on the open test branch! That's right, today you’ll be able to download a big update and keep Vanadis and her four pets company!

Here’s how to get to the test branch: https://youtu.be/7Q2QdFtLs1g

In the last few weeks, we’ve been actively testing this update for bugs but we’d like to emphasize still, that this is a test build of the game. There MAY be bugs in it. If you’re not ready for potential bugs, please wait for the release of this character in the main version.

Although the mechanics are complete, various character elements will be added as soon as they are ready: cut scenes, dubbing, and certain card art. However, their absence shouldn’t prevent you from checking out the new gameplay.

Please report all bugs through the game or through Discord in the bug reporting section.

It's a bit surreal to be releasing my first game. After many false starts, I wasn't sure it would ever happen. But, finally, Murdo's Quest is releasing.

This update improves the sound design and effects. It introduces a few gameplay enhancements too.

• Improved design for sound effects.
  
• Added 75+ new sound effects for game units and events.
  
• Rebalanced volume for all sound effects.
  
• Implemented automatic leader respawning 30 seconds after death.
  
• Decreased first chaos level to 4 minutes so invaders spawn sooner.
  
• Added a game message for avatar ability upgrade.
  
• Updated icons for guardian upgrade and buff.
  
• Fixed check for determining when a campaign game has ended (won or lost).
  
• Updated some help info.
  
• Various fixes.

Next up, I will make a new game trailer because the current one is 4+ years old. It is missing a lot of new artwork, sound effects, and gameplay features. I'm going to update the Store page and screenshots as well.

After that, I will make a lot of improvements to the computer AI to make it even more challenging. In particular, I need to add logic for capturing rifts since they are so important now. Currently, the computer AI only captures rifts if they are along the path to fortresses, which puts it at a disadvantage. I will change that by the next update.

Finally, I will be participating in Steam Next Fest, which is coming-up soon. I'm planning to do my first livestream, so check back for those details within the next week or two. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this update!
