Ah, where to begin, dear adventurers? Aganor is no mere chart of locations - it’s a masterpiece of lore, geography, and challenges waiting to be conquered. From bustling towns to the desolate Deadlands, this map teems with life, peril, and the whispers of ancient tales. And Survival Mode will guide you through it...

Begin your journey in Edgescar, the gateway to the legendary Throneveld. Each victory unlocks new biomes, ramping up the challenges and days required for survival. Traverse first biomes to overcome the Deadlands, where Watermeuse Fort and Eskerton Hold offer the hardest trials in all of Darfall.


Deadlands have a rich lore in Darfall, once being a lush forest with diverse races and dragons, now stands as a toxic, lava wasteland with nothing but ruins of old kingdoms.

These last 2 maps, Watermeuse Fort and Eskerton Hold offer the hardest challenge in the game.

More on the deadlands I will tell you later...

Each corner of Aganor offers a unique challenge, crafted to test your mettle and reward your cunning:

The perfect beginning for a brave adventurer. The Grasslands are abundant in food and wood, but beware - storms roll in without warning, bringing fire and chaos.

Biome Feature - Storms
Storms spark wildfires but can be harnessed to create fiery defenses.

Lore: The towns we are to re-build here belonged to a Windmar kingdom, the richest of the human kingdoms, that being until it fell to the overwhelming forces of the demons. No amounts of gold can buy you out of of that one.

Harsh and barren, the Desert offers little food but rich veins of iron.

Oases are rare gems, providing fertile ground for farming and much-needed wood.

Biome Feature - Heatwaves
Heatwaves drain your workers unless you keep them refreshed with… beer!

Lore: These parts of the continent are not united under 1 kingdom, but rather under different families, the most prominent one being Allerton.

Foggy and treacherous, the Swamp slows expansion with its muddy terrain and roaming wraiths. Yet wood is plentiful for those who persevere.

Biome Feature - Mud
Mud bogs your forces - build roads to keep your army mobile.

A true test of endurance. Low crop yields and roaming Yetis make survival daunting, especially when blizzards strike.

Biome Feature - Blizzard
Blizzards slow movement and freeze workers; braziers are essential for warmth.

The ultimate challenge. Toxic and barren, the Deadlands are home to the feral Dragnir - once mighty dragons, now haunting ruins.

Biome Feature
Everything here wants to kill you. Prepare for battle, or perish.

Lore: Once a lush region of the continent known as Verdan Expanse, it was home to variety of races, mainly dragons. As orcs and humans began expanding into their territory, the last desperate action, led by mighty dragon Ashscorn was to burn the entire region into cinders, the land trembled, the vulcanos erupted. It not only wiped out humans and orcs, but also dragons themseves, turning them into now feral Dragnir roaming Deadlands.

Aganor is brought to life with drifting clouds, dynamic geography, and a tapestry of history. This map isn’t just for survival; it’s the stage for your grand journey, culminating in a large-scale demonic invasion threatening all life in the realm.

Prepare to write your story, adventurer. Aganor awaits your courage, strategy, and destiny. The realm is yours to shape!

ASCENDANT has undergone its own biopunk metamorphosis, and it’s looking sharper, darker, and more dangerous than ever. After community feedback on the “too bright”, “OTT” colourway of the game, we’ve ditched the highlighter-bright chaos for a sleeker, atmospheric palette that says, “Welcome to the future you were too terrified to imagine.” Think neon-soaked shadows, pulsing with eerie red and blue hues that scream Total Recall meets RoboCop. It’s an unapologetically 80s dystopia - a blood-slicked noir playground where survival now feels like an art form.

It's a total transformation that brings the game's biopunk 80s’ essence into sharp focus. ASCENDANT is about chaos, strategy, and high-stakes adrenaline, and now its aesthetic matches the action. We’ve built a world where every glowing sign and flickering bulb reminds you that Harmony is as beautiful as it is deadly.

But this visual overhaul doesn’t stand alone. It’s rolling out alongside a slew of game-changing updates to gunplay and mechanics - updates that will make this 3v3v3v3 battleground more brutal, more tactical, and more unpredictable than ever. We’re taking our unique brand of biopunk mayhem to the next level, and this new look is just the beginning.
Ready to step into the shadows? Or will you burn out in the neon glow?

Hello dear people,
Today I welcome you with a fairly significant update for the game.

•TWO NEW VEHICLES - Meteor and Zenith. They can be bought from Car Market
•VEHICLE DIRTY SYSTEM - Now your cars and trucks can get dirty, so you might want to wash them. I will also add a sponge when the inventory system is ready, to be able to wash the car anywhere, manually
•Fixed laggy vehicles in traffic
•Reworked the object highlighting system
•I also fixed a LOT of bugs.

Maybe I haven't added a lot of stuff now, but I've worked and experimented with a lot more stuff than the ones added, stuff that I'll add soon: inventory, rope system, proper vehicle customization, etc.

Until then, I wish you all happy holidays!

We've added tweaks to improve SteamVR streaming performance for a smoother experience.

If you still encounter FPS drops, jittering hands, or image stuttering while using Meta + SteamVR:

• Set Graphics presets to LOW.
  
• Adjust Render Resolution in the Settings (e.g., set it to 90% for a ~10% performance boost).

We strive to support all VR devices and launch options, continuously improving third-party solutions launch. However, we still recommend using native Oculus streaming, like AirLink, to minimize additional FPS loss — VR is already demanding on hardware!

Let us know how these updates work for you!

We've been working hard to integrate this graphics-enhancing technology into Hard Bullet, but we encountered some performance issues, particularly with Meta via SteamVR streaming.

While we aimed to have HBAO ready this year, we want to ensure a smooth experience for all our players. Therefore, we've decided to postpone its release until January.

Thanks and sorry for waiting!

• Graphics: Added more precise render scaling, now adjustable in 1% increments.
  
• Graphics: Introduced an HDR on/off option for enhanced visuals.
  
• Head Bag: Fixed an issue where the active Head Bag outfit reverted to the default after restarting.
  
• Range: Updated target destruction sounds for better feedback.
  
• Range: Improved UI button usability for a smoother experience.
  
• Veteran 88 and some other rifles: Fixed reloading issues.

Current game version: EA 0.7.7.5

Everyone can play it directly!

Finish a normal game with Kittree, and you'll be able to play with this really special cat!

Hello,
I wanted to post a dev update since we haven't posted any updates on Steam in awhile. Here are a few highlights of progress on the game over the past few months.

Character Portraits:
Updated character portraits are in the works, it will be awhile until they're completed but here is a sneak peak at some compared to the previous version.


Critters:
2 new critters have been added to the game. There are 4 critters types you can ranch/keep in the game, the Alpheep, Bluggy, Chikree and Girtle. Each type has 5 visual variations.


Inventory Items:
We've done a big inventory item update and added over 140 new items to the game. Now when you process a food item it turns into a processed version of it, in other words, apple on dry rack = dried apple instead of "dried fruit" and apple on press = apple juice.


Environment Visuals:
A lot of work has been done to improve the visuals of the world and environment art. Here is a comparison picture showing the before and after updates to the water shader. On the left side of the purple line in this image you can see that the water looks kinda flat, without much depth and on the right side hopefully you can see how it has much more depth and color range.


Music:
45 minutes of original music has been completed and there are quite a few banger tracks in there! I can't wait to share it with y'all.

Release Date:
We're still not sure when we'll be able to release the game in early access, our goal is to do so sometime during 2025. There is still a lot of work to be done and we don't want to release a buggy low quality experience.

Thanks for all the support, kind words, and feedback so far!

Here are some renders of the Comanche with its various colour schemes...
