If you were able to experience Hyper Hadron Racing at Play Expo Blackpool last year you may already be familiar with these tricky little bots which will pursue and harass if you fly too near. For everyone else, here is a close look at the drones complete with their rotating "gun head" and antenna ears!
Tomorow, i.e. 25.4. at 15:00 sharp, Polda 4 HD will be released.
We have prepared a competition for you. There is a mysterious achievement in the game. We won't say where! The first one to find it will get a limited bigbox edition of Polda 8! The next four fastest players will get a Steam key for Polda 8.
But watch out! Just getting the Achievement won't be enough. It will be important to get to a certain place in the game and take a certain action. After that, the game itself will give you instructions on how to register for the contest.
đź•’ You have the whole weekend to show what you've got! Who will be the greatest detective?
We're keeping our fingers crossed for all of you and we're curious to see how long it takes for someone to succeed. Fingers crossed.
I’m Aoki, the producer of “Legacy VIRTUA FIGHTER Project.”
Wow! Time has flown – it’s been almost three months since we released "VF5 R.E.V.O." Id like to express my sincerest gratitude to all of you streaming and holding VF tournaments and events in various countries and regions around the world.
Today starts our Golden Week Sale and brings with it our largest "VF5 R.E.V.O." discount yet, with up to 35% off – including the 30th Anniversary Edition. If you’ve been curious to see what Virtua Fighter is all about, I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity and step into the ring!
Next, Id like to provide an update on our progress with the highly requested "Replay” feature that we are in the process of implementing. This feature will allow you to select and view replays of matches from online and offline modes. In replay mode, you can check real-time information such as input history, command inputs, attack-related information, frame data, etc. We are also exploring more ideas to enhance this feature.
Even better, you won’t have to wait long for this update. Replay Mode will be coming very soon in the not-too-distant future. Beyond this, we are checking through our Discord and social channels to see what other features you’d like to see next. We greatly appreciate your continued feedback, and I will be certain to update you on what features we come up with next.
Finally, we recently released the participation rules for the "VIRTUA FIGHTER Open Championship" (Japanese only; other languages to follow shortly). The preliminary tournaments will be conducted both online and offline in each region. For the online preliminaries, we have set regulations such as limiting participants to specific regions, so please check the guidelines to ensure your participation eligibility.
Coming up next in a few weeks will be the VF5 R.E.V.O tournament held at "EVO Japan 2025" and I am looking forward to meeting all VF fans there! Thank you again for your continued support of VF and Sega.
Hey everyone. Thank you for your patience! We'll kick things off with the best news first!
Prince of Suburbia Re-Impregnation "Knock Me Up Again!" DLC
Based on the poll in the previous post, we WILL be sticking with the original style, NOT the new one. I hope that relieves many of you that might have been concerned about it.
Our artist, auxiliaryout, has been on an absolute tear when it comes to creating art for our brand new upcoming DLC, the Prince of Suburbia "Knock Me Up Again!" DLC. We're working as quickly as we can to develop this DLC. The setting we decided on for the DLC is our lovely harem vacationing at an exotic oasis in the desert with pyramids not far away. Will they have a relaxing vacation or will trouble find them?
We're excited to announce we have our store page up on Steam (as you can also see in the graphic above) and if it looks appealing to you, we'd love it if you would wishlist it! We plan on having at least one mini-release on Patreon/SubscribeStar for this DLC in the near future as we develop it so that you can check it out as we go and let us know what you think!
Please enjoy the screenshots showing off some of the new outfits for the vacation and post-pregnancy bodies. Check out the store page to see the rest of your favorite harem!
Unfortunately, not much progress has been made on the Prince of Suburbia Pregnancy DLC since the last actual progress for it was announced. We were close to having a mini-release for it but we had multiple delays with art production which plagued development progress for the Pregnancy DLC. We ended up parting ways with vesperanoita and wish her the best.
We have a new artist already working for us that will be taking on the effort. We'll share more with you as we progress with development.
A Shot in the Dark Development
Being honest, we're still not sure when we'll be able to get back to ASitD development and we don't want anyone to have any high hopes that will change anytime soon given our current circumstances. If you missed why this is currently going on with A Shot in the Dark please check out an earlier post below.
Chapter 4 is the halfway point of the story. After deliberation we have decided we'll probably call it Part 1, Season 1, or something to that effect as it remains paused. We have translation work we already completed for it so we'll do our best to implement that too for fans that have been waiting for the other languages. The game's development will continue to remain paused/on hold.
Two more weapon slots have been added to the game. Now up to 7 weapons can be equipped.
The 2nd and 3rd weapon slots are locked now from the start. Unlocking them costs 10 gold each now. For existing save games the weapon slots stay unlocked.
Unlocking the new 6th and 7th weapon slot costs 100 gold each.
Some things in the tutorial are explained a bit better and also contains unlocking of weapon slots.
Hey everyone, lots of great feedback so far. Good to hear from people trying out the early access / prototype demo, and excited to keep hearing from you all!
Today I want to just chat a bit about what the game is, some ideas behind it and what the future might hold for it. Of course, there's still a lot of time for this game to evolve before some of the "no turning back" details are locked in!
What is "Sheep for the Stars"?This game is a precision platformer (or rage-bait platformer), designed around the classic "vertical climb" recipe. Master the systems and movement in the game, climb through levels (against gravity) where small mistakes could result in a fall back to the beginning of the level / zone.
Though this genre is heavily inspired by games like Jump King, Sheep for the Stars has a larger focus on the racing aspect of the game. Master each section to compete for better time scores, use tokens granted by those scores to unlock new customizations and other goodies. Additionally, you can also challenge 2 to 7 other players in a free-for-all race in private and public Steam lobbies. In fact, the current early access demo has full multiplayer support to check out and provide feedback on right now!
Why a platformer?They all say "don't make a platformer" or "saturated market", and this is of course very likely correct. Sheep for the Stars is a passion project, a design I've had for a while that I really just want to see out in the wild for players to enjoy. I do really think the gameplay loop and mechanics are quite fun, and the end-state vision for the game definitely has a lot of meat to it.
The FutureI was planning on targeting a May 2025 release date, but unfortunately some delays have made that schedule a bit too tight. The good news, it's now in Steam Next Fest in June, so now there's a tangible target for a lot of the additional improvements I want to make to the demo.
If you want to help out, wishlists and demo plays are the best way to check out the game and stay informed of any upcoming changes and progress.
You can also provide feedback anywhere you want like: - The Discord Server - Community Hub posts and comments - acehigharcade.com - Or just any random DM place you find
Thanks everyone for following along so far, also released a big visual update to the demo today. More improvements coming very soon.
