A new Content Sneak Peek is finally here! This one is also part of our next MAJOR upcoming update that we have been cooking up…
So, we present to you our Content Sneak Peek #3!
This one comes directly from deep within the Caves of Dhal Zhog… skittering in the dark… feeding off of any Void Hunters that dare enter its domain… but you might wonder... what does a Void Hunter get by taking such risks?? Well... the answer to that and other questions is... coming very soon! ːsssthumbː
But if you are curious and still havent seen our last Special Edition Dev Talk (with timestamps!), we go through some more information about what to expect from this new game mode, so check it out as well!
As always, we are super grateful for all the love and support we have been getting and it makes us extremely excited to put this new content into your hands and for the overall future of Soulstone Survivors in the hopes that you will all enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it!
Let this theme inspire you to make whatever your heart desires. Or just make some other dumb meme stuff. There are no minimum skill requirements, the points are made up to encourage you to play, and anything you contribute makes the whole experience better for everyone!
…and one more thing!
EVERY SINGLE USER has been given a PERMANENT SCRIPTING BOOST Baseline char count has been increased to 2000 chars! Every user now has 1 public script slot by default.
What the heck is this again anyway?
This is NOT YOUR TRADITIONAL GAME JAM. This is h a c k m u d; so we are doing things our way! Instead of separate submission and voting periods, there will be a 7-day window to submit, play, vote, edit, and ship the best version of your script that matches the game jam theme. Players can vote anytime during the 7-day event window.
Submit: Players will be able to register one Game Jam entry per account.
Play and Vote: Players can try out scripts and vote anonymously in the CLI.
Voting:
Each player gets 3 total votes for the duration of the event per account.
Votes can be changed during the event (e.g., switch an upvote to a downvote or vice versa, rescind a vote if you have reached your max votes and wish to change your vote to a different script).
Chosen judges will have substantially extra votes - sway them over for their support!

New this week: New Filters, Level 7, boat, and more. This is a BETA update. Please use the Beta branch in BrVR's steam library page -> gear icon -> properties -> betas.
Added new filters
16 new filters have been added, allowing you to customize how BrVR looks. Some notable highlights are a Cel shader, a desolate filter which covers everything in fog, a noir filter, a glitchy color jumbler, a film negative. There are many more though.
Added a boat
A new boat has been added to level 7. It's a little wooden dingy but will get the job done. There are two speed settings for the motor, and full turning functionality. This is the first small vehicle to be added to BrVR. This also required water physics to get an overhaul.
Level 7 revamp
Level 7 is now much darker and better lit. There are new layers of rock to go through, and overall the level has more playable area. There is even a new pirate ship that you can loot in the deep dark abyss.
Meat can now be cooked in the oven
Meat now has a cook component and can be cooked in the oven.
Overhaul of the main editor and database windows -- this has been a few days of work in the making that folks have tirelessly poured through -- thank you to everyone involved!
Fixed an issue with loading screens not animating/updating.
Fixed a few other small visual issues related to the editor.
