Hello Wardens, have you been staying hydrated while working with the summer heat inside the prison? ːkarrynWardenː

I bring some news today if you haven't been following along with us on Discord, Twitter, Ci-en or SubscribeStar! If you haven't noticed, the game have been updated almost daily in the last few weeks. Along with bug fixes, improvements and a small new feature, we have been working behind the scene implementing H Cups into the game for Karryn. Basically, once it's finished, you will be able to change Karryn's boob size from her current K Cups (really big), to H Cups (big) if you want, H Cup being smaller than her default K Cup but still pretty big. This will happen free of charge, so you don't need to pay for a DLC or anything like that! ːgoblinInmateː

The main reason for adding an optional Boob Size into the game is because we always felt that it was too much of a shame when people skip Karryn's Prison because her default, purposely oversized and oversexualized breasts were just too much. ːtonkinBulliedː While reducing down to H Cup will hardly bring all those people to give the game a chance since H Cup is still really big, we believe having more options isn't a bad thing. There certainly are players currently who play but feel like Karryn's Karryns are a bit too big and would enjoy the game better if they were a bit smaller.ːkarrynGlassesː

In addition, after we finish the H Cup variations, there is a possibility that we add a third Boob Size option, even BIGGER breasts compared to Karryn's default K Cups. It will all depend on how we feel after implementing the H Cups! ːkarrynFanː

Again, this won't be a DLC and will just be a free update to the game because we felt like it! ːkarrynComfyː

As always, stay up to date by following us on our Discord and Twitter accounts!ːmeltysː

Howdy folks!

We've got the small start to the Update 111 cycle this week. Apologies for the lack of a Steam post for U110 going live last week. I must admit I was so fixated on Baldur's Gate 3 I totally forgot to make one to go with the build....

This next cycle is all going to be about Take & Hold as we ramp up to the new Level's launch. We jumped back to the Experimental branch as I need to make some breaking changes to scoring, and other state tracking that will at times make top-scoring on the boards in the Hallway level impossible (while I work on things) and so didn't want folks to be stuck with that until its done.

Until then though, enjoy the new set of toys this week, and hopefully we'll have some of the new Take & Hold encryption challenges migrated into character for you all to field test next Friday!

Peace,
Anton

Agents,

We are deploying a minor fix patch (Ver. 0.11.1) to implement some changes and improvements around the game’s save data. As we continue going through the list of reported issues, we will be deploying hotfixes and patches frequently until we can ensure players can all comfortably enjoy the game.

For the list of changes in this patch, please see below

• Improved saved data handling
• Removed the save data reset option under Settings

If you have the issue with your save file resetting after this patch, please follow the instructions below:

1. Launch the game
2. Go to the following folder in Windows Explorer: %AppData%\..\Local\BPClient\Saved\SaveGames
3. Delete the “BPSaveGame.sav” file
4. Create a backup copy of the “InGamePersistent_backup.sav” file in a different folder
5. Duplicate the “InGamePersistent_backup.sav” file within BP “SaveGames” folder
6. Rename it to “BPSaveGame.sav”
7. Close the game & sync with Steam Cloud
8. Launch the game again

Please note that if you are playing at this time, your game will not be interrupted. You will be prompted to download the patch the next time you open Blackout Protocol. It is possible for teammates to play with mismatched game versions, which could potentially impact gameplay. So please install the update as soon as possible for the best experience.

Hello players!
Thank you for playing INSOMNIA!
I received many feedback and I decided to fix the problems that people hated the most.

-Prologue changes: I changed the notes making them shorter, converted one of the notes into thought and got rid of that font that you hated forever! (After all, no one wants to stay reading while playing a demo isn't it?)

-Also, we increased the Music Box spawn timer in Hour 2! Now the doll will be less oppressive and the music box won't trigger together with the basement blackout!

Thanks for your cooperation and keep sending feedback! They are crucial for the development and success of INSOMNIA!

Thank you!

It's been more than I wanted since the last update.
Once again, nothing flashy in this one, but I managed to clean up many issues that were introduced in previous updates.
Now the game should hopefully run (more) bug free.

Unless some very bad bug pops out, I'll focus on new content this week!

Early Access for Wayfinder begins on August 15, and we want to ensure that you are as prepared as you can be to choose your path and stand up to the Gloom.

In order to join in on the action-packed adventures, you will need to purchase a Founder’s Pack! While you can’t pre-purchase a pack just yet, they will be available on Steam on August 15 at 12 p.m. CT,

Be sure to check out what the different tiers – Base, Initiate, Awakened and Exalted – have to offer here.

Early Access is just the start of our adventure. With Early Access, we are expanding the Wayfinder community to start building the game alongside us. Our Founder’s program isn’t just about backing the team; it’s a way to celebrate and reward those players involved with the early development of Wayfinder. Most importantly, we’ll continue learning about what you want to see implemented and improved.


Each Founder’s Pack grants you varying levels of access to the Founder’s Season 1 and 2 Reward Towers. Rewards include crafting components needed for new Wayfinders and their unique style set, color dyes, emotes, weapon skins, trinkets, sprays, charms, housing decorations, pets and more! Best of all, your Reward Tower will never expire! Play at your own pace, and return to previous Seasons in the future.



Early Access will feature our first iteration of Player Housing! Wayfinders will be able to make a cozy, customizable apartment with a variety of decorations! Liven up your space and place special items such as Trophies and Artifacts to buff your adventures outside your home.



You’ll be able to play anywhere you want and with all your friends across both PlayStation and PC during Early Access! On top of that, progression in Early Access will be saved on your account and carried over when the game fully releases!

We are thrilled to share that Wayfinder is reaching a wide range of players globally by supporting a variety of languages through text and audio! Currently in Early Access, Wayfinder will support English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Polish, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Turkish, Brazilian Portuguese and Japanese.

As with any Early Access game, you may experience some minor bugs and limitations as you explore Evenor. Be sure to join the Official Wayfinder Discord to stay up to date and connect with our supportive community. We will also have a Feature Upvote site available on August 15 where you’re encouraged to submit feedback and report bugs. The site will be open for submissions once Early Access begins.
