A couple of weeks ago, we launched the August Update, which included some significant improvements to different parts of the game, including the car physics, general game performance and some aspects of the AI.

As many of you have noticed, the monthly updates so far have been quite a mixture of fixes, general improvements and new features - general updates, so to speak. Going forward, we'll be shifting focus to making these updates more specific to certain areas of the game and certain features.



Fundamentally, we're going to be giving each of the upcoming updates between now and GeneRally 2's v1.0 release a particular theme or main feature focus.

In addition to this, we want to make sure that we deliver smaller fixes and features more often than once per month. As a result, you can expect smaller patches, hotfixes and updates as-and-when they're ready to be launched, and the bigger features on a monthly basis.

Today's update improving the AI and physics, is once such example of these smaller patches!

At the moment, we have four or five major feature updates planned (and many more thoughts about updates for the future). In this blog post, we'll briefly cover just a few of them...

September will be the last of the "a bit of everything" updates that we've had so far. It will be a little smaller and more concentrated than the July and August updates - but it will still contain some significant upgrades and improvements.

You can expect to see:

• The first round of the updated menu UI, making the game nicer to interact with, and fixing a bunch of small bugs that have crept up over time.
  
• A bunch of new objects, to round out our "first batch" of additions.
  
• Keyboard key rebinding.
  
• Other small features, fixes and updates.

The September update will likely arrive towards the end of September.

This is a big feature, and one that lots of people have been waiting for! We've been hard at work on this feature for months now. After the release of the August update, we've now moved more team members to focussing on this, so that we can bring it to the state where it's ready for you to play.

We'll have more information about online multiplayer, and what the update will contain, closer to the time.

Another big focus for us are the AI drivers. As many of you know, the AI are not yet as competitive as we'd want them to be - and we are planning to have a significant update to them in the coming months.

This update will include improvements to their basic functions and skills, and will also see the introduction of the additional parameters and "profiles", which will allow you to customise their behaviour to suit you.

Of course, along with future updates will have new cars and tracks at regular intervals! Stay tuned for more information about these.

We haven't yet set an exact date for leaving Early Access and launching GeneRally 2 v1.0 - but we do have a set of features and updates in mind that we want to finish before we get there. Stay tuned for more information on this in the coming months!

Hello Brave ones!

As you already know, the Guardian Edition of No Place for Bravery is now online. With it, several improvements have been added to the project. Now, we need to discuss the game's languages.

We have also previously mentioned the size of our team and the challenges we faced during our launch in the text about the Roadmap of updates.


We are a small team from Brazil, and the possibility of having a game in multiple languages was like a dream come true. What we didn't know at the time was that it came with some limitations.

Bravery is a game with a lot of text; everything has a story to tell, and everything adds in some way to the construction of the world. We weren't so experienced in terms of scope, and various text changes were needed during the project's development. All of this incurred a cost - localizing for various languages. After a while, we finalized the treatment of the game's text, and nothing more could be written because we didn't have the financial resources for it. Of course, many things still needed to be said, but we tried to do that in the best way possible without text.

For the Guardian Edition, since we have been without funding for a while, we decided to overlook this limitation a bit and go for a more independent approach, working with the community. We decided to include all the texts that we deemed necessary for the project to become a better game, including new tutorials and tips, new interactions and items, and all of this ended up making the game more interesting. Everything was written in Portuguese and translated into English, which was used for all the other languages.

From time to time, we receive emails from members of the community offering to localize the game's text into a language that hasn't been localized yet. So we thought, let's be indies! Let's use our community and ask for help in this regard.

This text is about that - the Guardian Edition has already been released, and with it, several improvements and various new texts that need to be localized. How do you, brave members of the community, think we can work on this with community creation tools? Should we release a spreadsheet with comments, for example?

We are a team of three people working to improve a project that is currently without funding. In addition, we are also working on new ideas to keep the studio alive. Things are happening slowly, but with the help of the community, we know we can change this story.

This update fixes a few issues with the AI. It also includes various optimisations for and improvements to game systems.

• Improved AI's ability to handle slides and hairpins.
  
• Adjusted how fuel consumption and tyre wear are calculated to make the system more equal between keyboard, controller and AI players.
  
• AI now knows not to wait for a full tank at the pits if it's not needed to finish the race.
  
• Various improvements and optimizations for faster and more stable car physics.
  
• Various other optimizations.
  
• Smoother car movement by extrapolating approximate car position at render time.
  
• Small updates to French, Russian and English translations.
  
• General now has a brake light.
  
• Optimised the in-game UI's performance a bit.
  
• FIXED: Heightmap no longer gets distorted when importing a GR1 track.
  
• FIXED: Wheels no longer clip through the car body.
  
• FIXED: In-game UI no longer has update delays under some circumstances.

Big thanks for all the feedback you've been sending our way!
The list of updates is long, so let's take a quick look at the highlights:

Map
This was probably the most common request. New map features—like zooming, panning, and custom markers—should help keep you on track! There are still things about the Map UI that we want to improve in the future, but we think this is a solid start.

Fast Travel
You can now use Fast Travel between all discovered Bell Towers, both in your villages and in NPC villages. Yet another reason to gather those bells (and keep your purse full of coins)! There will be more (non-Bell related) Fast Travels spots in the future.

Pause
The game will now pause when you open the in-game menu in single-player mode. Perfect for when you want to prepare yourself another green tea.

These are just three out of dozens of improvements we have made in the past two weeks – and we don’t intend to slow down. For us, Early Access launch was just the start of a new phase in development, one that we're excited to undertake with your feedback, so please keep it coming! We're giving it our all—working on quick bug fixes and quality of life improvements, and at the same time laying the groundwork for major updates coming this year. Hope you’ll follow us along the way!
