Only 99 units of the 2016 Spania GTA Spano were ever made, this means a large chunk of the world’s population was locked out of tasting its glorious V10 Twinturbo 7.9 - liter engine.

The fourth week of Community Choice will give you the chance of reaching this car’s insane top speed of 350 kmh and having a go at its incredible acceleration that allows it to reach 100 from a standstill in just 2.9 seconds.

Wear your finest traje de luces to take a ride on a hypercar born and raised in Spain.

If you have encountered any issue with this update, please make sure to report it on our Troubleshooting Hub. You will find other known issues we are currently investigating as well.

Community Choice’s last hurrah brings new unlockables and challenges to complete before February 1st:



SERIES REWARDS

• 80 PTS: 2020 Nissan GT-R NISMO
  
• 160 PTS: 2021 Porsche 911 GT3

SPRING REWARDS

• 20 PTS: 2016 Spania GTA Spano
  
• 40 PTS: 1969 FIAT Dino 2.4 Coupe

The 40 PTS car for the final week is an Italian must have (and must drive). Fiat and Bertone got together and decided to make one of the best-looking cars Italy has ever seen.

The 1969 FIAT Dino 2.4 Coupe is a torque-producing beast with a 2.4-liter V6 engine and a suit that could fit any high-fashion runway.

Along with a Spanish racer and an Italian style icon, Spring Season brings a lot more rewards for you to unlock this fourth week.

Hey giants,

We're participating in Steam Next Fest with a brand-new demo! Try Reus 2's demo NOW. There is plenty of new content to discover!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1875060/Reus_2/

The demo offers three giants (Rock, Ocean, Swamp) that can create 3 biomes (Desert, Ocean and Rainforest). A fourth giant (Frost) can be unlocked, along with the Taiga biome through the new metagame progression. The player can play endless planets, but will only unlock up to the first 3 characters with their special powers. In this demo, the player can only play the first era of the game, but will have the choice of 3 branching turning points.





We are really excited with this new demo and can't wait to know what you think, share our feedback in the Steam discussions or on Discord!

Hello, everyone!

We hope you're all having a great start to 2024! We're excited to share monthly updates with you again.

It's been quite some time since our last Monthly Update—precisely 10 months. Since then, we've completed our demo, conducted a private playtest with our Discord community, received invaluable feedback, and began preparing for pitching and documenting our game. Over the past two months, we've shifted our focus back to development. As we entered the new year, we thought this might be a good opportunity to start sharing news from the game as well. In this monthly update, we would like to talk about the Game Design Document.


One of the most important things in game development is having a Game Design Document (GDD) that defines basically everything. While we had one when we first started, it was lacking some important aspects. During this period, we put significant time into improving our design document, which led to a better defined scope, and a more precise timeline. It also helped us realize certain things wouldn't work best, so we changed these things in the game and in our plans.

Previously, we've been using traditional methods for our documenting process: a single Google Document that contains everything. Imagine something like a huge Word document with many sections. We transitioned from that to something more like a Wiki. We used Notion for this, which ended up being a really good knowledge base for both the team and others who needed to get onboarded. The new approach also saved us a lot of time in communicating things, as it had many powerful tools that our team could utilize.

When we were working on the documentation, we defined many things, such as every single item, story, quests, characters, creatures, dungeons, points of interest, and many more. We also created new concept arts for the art team, so they could have a better idea of what needs to be created.


Creating concept art for our creatures was a significant part of this effort. As creatures are important for both storytelling and gameplay, we needed to have all the details about their backgrounds, why they were inhabiting here, why they looked the way they do, and so on. We used these details to finalize our design, and we will use the visuals to help our 3D artists and animators finalize these creatures. As a player, you will initially see these creatures in the world, but you will also have an opportunity to answer the questions that we just asked. Having all this work in harmony requires these efforts, and we truly hope to provide the best experience in the end.

We are excited about the future of Blind Descent. In our next monthly update, we will share more details about the gameplay.

What are your thoughts on this update? Would you like to learn more about the hidden aspects of game development, or are you more interested in the gameplay itself? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below!

Thank you for being part of our community.

The different branches I released with the 0.4.0 update to fix the lighting issue on certain setups were helpful. Thus, this update finally fixes this lighting issue! :) Thanks for your help!

Special Announcement from Fae & Fauna team: Featured on Games in Sweden event!
Hello wonderful Fae & Fauna Community!

🎮We're overjoyed to share some incredible news with you, as we’ve been selected to be a part of the Games in Sweden event! 🎮
It's so exciting to be a part of this event celebrating games made in Sweden. The Swedish game dev community has welcomed us with open arms we're proud to finally be a part of it. Through the Sweden game incubator, we’ve received so much support and help on the journey to make this studio a reality.

🏡🫎We want to give an extra shout-out to our fellow neighbor indie studios (whom we have breakfast with every Tuesday) that we hold closer to our hearts and we’d love if you’d check them out as well!

Odinfall is a cool Rough-lite viking inspired twin-stick shooter, made by some extremely passionate and nice people at Ember Paw Games. Their game gets your heart pumping and your palms sweaty (in a good way), and a game you should definitely keep on your radar (and your wishlist)

Esoteric Ebb is a Disco-like RPG, that mixes hilarious witty writing with political conspiracies, which shouldn’t work, but with Christoffer Bodegård at Sudden Snail expertise narrative design and built in charm, makes it a blast. The demo is out now, and you don’t want to miss it!

Thank you for being a vital part of our journey, and supporting your local and non-local game devs. Every nice comment, fanart and suggestion really warms our frosty, desolate and scandinavian hearts.

Best,
🐾The Fae & Fauna Dev Team 🐾🎮

Snow has covered the landscape in historic Britain this week. Luckily for you, the 2019 Hennessey VelociRaptor 6x6 is available on the Festival Playlist in Seasonal Playground Games. This custom truck is the ultimate turbocharged off-roader primed to overcome the Winter snowstorms while towering over everything else on its path.

John Hennessey was asked why he wanted to take a Ford Raptor and add two wheels, another axel, eight inches of lift, 600hp, an overhauled exhaust for the Eco-Boost twin turbo V6 of the Raptor, and wrap it all up in a package called the Velociraptor. His answer? “Because you can.” Go figure. Only 100 of these custom trucks are made per year, and each one can hit 0-60mph in about 4.9 seconds, so you’re not going to want to miss this monster.


Get your VelociRaptor 6x6 and all this week’s other rewards by Thursday, February 1. Here’s the full Festival Playlist breakdown:

SERIES REWARDS:

• 50% Completion – Horizon Backstage Pass
  
• 80% Completion – 1990 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z

WINTER REWARDS:

• 50% Completion – 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Velar First Edition
  
• 80% Completion – 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
