A little over three weeks ago we invited all of you to join the special spooky festivities by taking part in our Happy Hauloween World of Trucks event. During this time, players were able to earn special rewards for completing a personal and community goal while hauling the unique Halloween Treats all over the in-game world.



As this was our first Halloween event, we were curious to know what the feedback will be, along with how much effort would the #BestCommunityEver be able to put into something fresh like this. Now, after everything is "said and done", we have to express our gratitude for the positive response that you’ve shown us. This view by most all of you was reflected in the amazing final stats that we would like to share with you. Great job everyone and thank you all for participating!



We truly hope you are enjoying the Swinging Bat dashboard toy and Pumpin Head hanging toy rewards. Even though Halloween itself is an extremely time-limited holiday, you can now drive across ETS2 and ATS with these accessories in your interior all year long!




Many of you also took to our social media channels to share with us photos and videos of your journeys and participation. We really enjoyed looking at them all and sharing some of them on our public profiles and our internal channels. It brings a lot of joy to our teams to see how much you enjoy these World of Trucks events.




Don’t worry, our plan is to keep bringing a Halloween event for the players in the upcoming years as well. But, that being said, it is time to look to the near future, so keep an eye out on our social media (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok), to not miss any potential announcement of what is soon to come.

PATCH NOTES

• Fixed a crash issue when launching the game on Steam Deck

Hello everyone!

The KARDS 2022 World Championship Grand Finalists have been determined!

Let’s take a moment to go over the status of the World Championship to bring us to where we are currently.

Two separate Open in-game Qualifiers were held during weekends between September 10th and October 15th. Close to 2,000 players competed in the Open Qualifiers in over 21,000 total games in the hopes of making it to the top 128 player Knockout Stage. The top 300 players in each Open Qualifier earned the exclusive 2022 World Championship card back, and the top 128 players each received 250 diamonds to spend on anything they desired in the in-game store.

The Knockout Stage was played during the weekend of the 29th and 30th of October. There, the top 2 players in each of 16 groups progressed to a 32 player double elimination round played the following weekend. On November 6th, the top 6 players battled it out live on stream for their spot in the Grand Finals. You can catch up with all the action of the top 6 in the VODs:

Our Grand Finalists will soon battle it out for their share of the $10,000 prize pool, with each already guaranteed at least $1,000.

Without further ado, let’s get to know our Grand Finalists!



Bamboo is a veteran of the game with extensive KARDS experience. He has frequently reached high positions on the seasonal ladder and competed in numerous OCC Qualifiers and KARDS Opens tournaments. His first appearance on the main stage of KARDS eSports was during the top 6 Grand Finals Qualifier stream for the 2022 World Championship. This rising star is in peak form and is ready to give his fellow competitors a run for their money.


With numerous successful runs in KARDS Opens and OCCs, including two OCC wins, Berto Burrito is a regular in the KARDS eSports scene. It’s no secret that Berto was brought to the game by his good friend and reigning KARDS World Champion, Jking7. Now, this Canadian hopes to take the title away from his fellow countryman and claim it for himself. Berto was able to beat Jking7 during their matches in the top 6 - only time will tell how he will fare if he faces Jking again in the Grand Finals.


Compared to his opponents, Head is a relative newcomer to KARDS, but one that has shown extreme dedication to the game and risen to the top at lightning speed. Head has participated in numerous KARDS Opens and OCCs where he has had some impressive performances. Although he has yet to win a tournament, Head is coming in hot and is well prepared for what’s ahead.


As the KARDS 2021 World Champion, Jking7 returns to the 2022 World Championship with a title to defend. Consistently securing top spots on the seasonal ladder, with several KARDS Open and OCC wins and a plethora of other high placements during KARDS tournaments, Jking7 is a titan in the KARDS eSports scene. Jking7 is also a KARDS streamer Jking0739, allowing those interested to get a glimpse into the mind of the reigning World Champion. The question that remains is: can Jking7 win the title of KARDS World Champion for the second year in a row?


The KARDS 2022 World Championship finals will be brought to you LIVE on the KARDS Twitch channel on the 3rd and 4th of December, starting at 13:00 GMT each day. Our casters and analysts will be on location to bring you an EPIC Grand Finals show!

Make sure to follow us on Twitch, Facebook, Twitter and join us on Discord so you don’t miss out on any of the action!

Finally, Steam Deck support comes to Horizon's Gate! And with it, vast improvements to controller use! (To use the new controller layout, make sure to reset your keybinds to Default!)



Additionally, saving and loading has been much improved - it's faster, takes up less space, and supports cloud saving! However, this came at a price: Horizon's Gate now requires .NET 4.5. This shouldn't lock any players out according to Steam's hardware and software stats - but just in case it does, version 1.5.88 will remain available on a separate branch called "v1588".

On top of that, there have been some big balance changes. Casters with delayed spells will greatly enjoy the time bonus reduction on the enemy's first round - landing spells will become more consistent rather than depending so much on the enemy's opening action. A handful of abilities and passives have been improved as well.

• Horizon's Gate can now run on Steam Deck!
  
• Horizon's Gate now requires .NET 4.5 (which will be automatically installed by Steam).
  
• New saves will be stored as .zip files, taking up far less space and improving save/load times!
  
• Cloud saving is now supported! ONLY new saves using the .zip format are uploaded to the cloud.

• Enemy bonus Time to Act from not moving/acting is now halved during the first round of non-naval combat
  
• Mechanist's 'Toss Medkit' range increased from 3 -> 4

• Balancer's 'Ice Carapace' description updated to mention that it grants +1 Physical Defense
  
• Balancer's 'Warmth' no longer reduces wind damage taken by 10%
  
• Guardian's 'Blockade' now affects all adjacent targets instead of just one
  
• Gladiator's 'Reckless' now grants +1 Physical Attack and -1 Physical Defense at all times and an additional +4 Physical Attack for 1 turn on combat start
  
• Ignis Knight's 'Firewall' now also includes burning characters
  
• Reduced Firebomb range by 1, and reduced amount of fire left behind on the ground
  
• Salvage Station machine can no longer be broken by ice
  
• Rare grove prizes are now limited to top tier equipment or Ability Tablets (no gems)
  
• Spidests rebalanced: -1 Move, +20 HP, Jump Attack range reduced by -1 and can hit allies, Whirling Attack inflicts Itchy
  
• Netchal 'RUIN' mode passive changed from Bulwark -> Imbue Momentum
  
• Jarf 'RUIN' mode Time to Act bonus reduced from -3 -> -2
  
• Entrailer 'RUIN' mode Time to Act bonus increased from 0 -> -2

• Gossip no longer mentions the current month's trade special if it is past day 20 of the month
  
• Fixed Aegis being consumed by any effect if the target has a debuff from a meal
  
• Added delay between targets for Balancer's 'Force' to make multi-tile pushing more reliable
  
• Party Inventory tab now properly greys out during combat when it is inaccessible
  
• Pressing Stash/Cargo button now only alternates between tabs and does not dismiss the window
  
• Added small animation to weapon selector UI when using a weapon
  
• When you freeze a puddle it now disappears after a day
  
• Fixed AI using Warmth to overwrite an ally's Ice Carapace and vice versa
  
• Summoned objects like Puddles and Smoke Balm are now lowest priority when selecting items
  
• Fixed being able to waste Stars on a 7th rank of Jump (Jump maxes out at 6)
  
• Reduced lag when highlighting characters with large movement range in combat

• Completely overhauled default Controller bindings - make sure to reset to Default to use these!
  
• New binding for Menu - default: 'Start' (Cancel no longer opens the menu)
  
• Improved "Ability Select" functionality - can now move to inventory on repeat presses or while holding items
  
• Improved prompts for "Weapon Select" to reflect that (A) confirms an attack and (X) selects the other weapon
  
• Added text prompts when holding a splittable stack of items or an equippable ship item
  
• Controller can now delete saves, edit appearances, ships, and modify keybinds
  
• Stats in the Class Window can be pointed at to view descriptions
  
• Keybinds now has a separate 'clear' button and a timer for canceling (instead of Delete/Escape respectively)
  
• After closing the journal from examining, or buying/selling an item, the cursor is returned to its original spot

• Fixed various window focus issues
  
• Fixed misbehaving cursor when dragging abilities or crew to reorder them
  
• Fixed rare softlock where controller gets stuck in Examine mode

• Added "allWithinAoEofCaster" and "allWithinAoEofTarget" (ex: "allWithinAoEofCaster: adjacentPlus1: burn" but without the spaces)
  
• Added extra GlobalAoEs with naming scheme "adjacentPlus1" instead of "adjacent+1" (so they can be used mid-formula)
  
• Added GlobalAoEs "adjacentArc", "adjacentPlus1Arc", "adjacentAndSelf+2Arc", and so on with arc=true;
  
• Added ItemType.specialProperty.bottomPriorityItemClickSearchOrder

Greetings Togges Trainees,

And welcome to the first-ever Togges Dev Diary! Let's start this little series by introducing the duo behind the game - Hi, that's us! You will get to know us as good as we do afterwards - including our favourite food, the last songs we listened to, etc. And a whole lot about Togges, of course!

In the coming weeks, in the run-up to the official release, we will be sharing more interesting information with you here on Steam, and take a closer look into the creation of Togges.

So, are you ready to meet us? ːsteamhappyː



We are two brothers living in the countryside of Brazil, and Togges is our big dream game that’s coming true on December 7th. As indie devs, we are an army of two, so we kind of do everything that needs to be done, with no pre-established roles. It's like this:

“Hey man, we need some sound effects for this thing, can you do it?”
Or: “Can you fix that part of the scenery, like, right now?!”

It's crazy, but you never get bored, that's for sure.

Name: Lucas
Role: Everything, literally.
What are you playing right now? God of War Ragnarok & Sonic Frontiers
What is your favourite food? A good old burger
What's the latest song you’ve listened to? Pikmin 2 Mystic Marsh EXTENDED - Nothing like listening to a chill OST while working
Which Togge would you become if you had to choose? Well, King President is a Togge as well, so I would choose him, mainly because I am the one who created him. ːsteamhappyː

Name: Felipe
Role: Everything, except coding.
What are you playing right now? Ico, is a classic masterpiece.
What is your favourite food? Cookies!
What's the latest song you’ve listened to? Does it need to be a song? Does 10 hours of relaxing forest sounds count? LMAO
Which Togge would you become if you had to choose? The white one for sure. It's the most overpowered one.

Now you know more about the two of us! In the next Dev Diary, we will take a closer look at what inspired us when creating the game. And to make sure you don't get bored until then, you should definitely take a look at our Togges demo here on Steam.

Because you don't become King President of the Universe just like that!

Happy exploring everyone!
Lucas and Felipe - The Togges Team

HatMania was finally released!
It has been long journey for the both of us, but we've finally managed to reach a state where we are proud of the game we've made.

When we started out we had no experience with game development. So there's been a lot of learning, redoing stuff, problems with the graphics, and redoing stuff again ;)
We hope you all enjoy it as much as we do. It's a hard game, so don't get too frustrated if you're having trouble. Instead savor the moment when you finally beat that annoying level :D

Please leave any bug reports and feedback, good or bad, for us. Besides reviewing here on Steam, your options are to reach out at diplopian@gmail.com and on our Discord.

Happy gaming
Christian and Anders
