“Building Tomorrow's Galaxy One Core At A Time”

Hello, esteemed guests of Fleapit — soft sinners and certified freaks alike!

Freaked Fleapit is going to be a part of… OTK Games Expo 2024! [20th Century Fox fanfare.wav]


You can watch the show on:

• Asmongold's Twitch Channel
• OTK YouTube Channel

However, we have to set some expectations here. While we’re confident that you’re going to enjoy this short look at the game, we also have to emphasize that it’s only The First Look. And here’s exactly what it’s going to contain:

• A peek at the beginning of Newbie’s journey!
  
• Two levels to dance through — complete with boss fights at the end!
  
• Voice over — you saw our Japanese VO cast, but the demo will also include English VO as well! And it’s good! Word!!!
  
• Personal quests for the girls — after you finish the 1st level, you can take a unique quest from each of the girls. However, you have enough energy to get two of those during one playthrough, so choose wisely! You will be rewarded with a cute mini-date and a CG if you manage to complete the quest!

And here are all the languages that the First Look Demo is going to support:

• Voiceover: English, Japanese, Š̶̩ė̴͜c̷̞͘r̷̘̈́e̸͕͗ṯ̷͠
  
• Text: English, Frenchl, Italian, German, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese

We plan to release a bigger demo later down the road, but we just couldn’t tease you any longer without providing an opportunity to experience the game! Huh? We’re teasing you again by not telling you what’s gonna be in the bigger demo?! Aw man… Okay, we’re gonna tell you now!

The improved Demo is going to include:

• Meta-progression — more fleshed out roguelite elements, traders, perks, skills, meta-currency and all that jazz
  
• 5 dates with branching dialogue set in different locations
  
• The first 2 circles of Hell but this time bolder, bigger and more fun!
  
• Various mini-games including mixology, bowling and more

Should be enough of a bone to feed! Anyway, this might’ve been a lot of info, so don’t forget to mark June 4th 12 pm PT as the ‘Freaked Fleapit – First Look Demo’ Day!!

P.S. We’ve already started sending out the Steam codes to Patreon and Indiegogo backers eligible for Early Access. So you might wanna check the spam folder, if you don’t get it until Tomorrow evening!


Don’t forget to follow us on Xitter (formerly known as just ‘The Bird Site’) and join the freakin Freaked Fleapit Discord server to stay up to date on all the latest news and other goofs and spoofs!

Bug fix

Added a radio you can control while driving, you need tunes right?

Also added some performance improvements for PC and Steam Deck

• re join bug fixes
  
• scene switching bug fixes

Heyo everyone!

Still not quite the balance adjustment I would like. If you're in the later chapters and things are either way too easy or way too hard, please let me know. I'm hoping to do a more comprehensive balance check at the start of next week.

There's some obvious issues with the way monsters are hitting and being hit. Sometimes Orcs are hitting too hard and some people are simply rushing through and sometimes people are getting hung up in places I don't want them to! However, I'm tired and so is the team, so we'll get back to it on Monday!

We did fix some stuff here for the Friday update before we sleep for three days straight. Here's the list.

v1.0.5
------
- Late game dialogue flow adjustments
- Text & localization adjustments
- Balance adjustments
- More whimsy in the startup jingle
- ENG Drink bug fix
- Boss fight adjustments
- Dungeon fixes

That is all, thank you very much for playing the game.

-Always

For those of you who may not know, having a game publisher like indie.io greatly helps indie developers focus on game development while they handle all the behind-the-scenes magic. From helping manage store pages to crafting marketing campaigns and even helping the game shine at both digital and live events, publishers help in all the aspects that indie developers often struggle with.

We embarked on this journey with a dream, rooted in our childhood passion for gaming. We were not just developers, but lifelong gamers who envisioned creating a game that would captivate our fellow gamers.

Shoot On Sight is the realization of this dream - a multiplayer isometric tactical shooter game offering a unique experience we believe gamers will love.

But we know that making a great game is only half the story. Without the right marketing, even the best game can go unnoticed. That’s why we teamed up with indie.io. Their track record with indie games is remarkable. They’ve successfully launched many indie titles, and we believe they’re the ideal partner to help “Shoot On Sight” achieve its full potential.

Check out some other great indie titles of https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/indieio!

Johnny was born in Sainte Marie de le Mer and spent his entire childhood with his gypsy group traveling between the Paris region and the south of France. Through his meetings, he was able to gain solid experience in the resale and transformation of metals forgotten on construction sites, as well as the resale of packages that fell from the truck. With his cousins they regularly trained for triathlons, in the morning they went to the swimming pool on foot and in the evening they returned by bike.
As a teenager he specialized in selling second-hand German car spare parts forgotten in parking lots.

One evening on her 39th birthday, a woman ran out of gas near her caravan group, she was screaming at her car which refused to start. One of these cousins (cousin Renard) tried to borrow his car radio for a more or less long term. Instead he took a series of potatoes and finished KO in two seconds. This altercation brought all the cousins and Johnny, who had observed the scene from afar. Rather than defending one of them who had just gotten his nose blown and started laughing and teasing cousin Renard. This woman is none other than Marianne. Johnny and his gang invited him to dinner with them and they offered him fresh gasoline for his car.

After that day, Johnny and Marianne saw each other regularly. The months passed and Johnny decided to move on and settle down with Marianne. They lived peacefully until that strike day.
