Recent gameplay tests have resulted in the following improvements:

Major changes in gameplay - solo and group dungeon modes. 🏰

The update introduced a number of important changes: updated start, reworked tutorial, expanded dungeon system, introduction of Solo mode, mod update, library, bestiary and much more!

⚔️ Crypt is now solo!

• Solo mode is now available in the Crypt. Kill bosses - and choose buffs within the current copy.

• A separate dungeon window has been added, with all the necessary information and functionality.

• Group mode will become available later and will be a more difficult version with better rewards.

• Similar modes are planned for other dungeons.

👹 New Crypt boss

Following the wishes of the players, a new boss has appeared in the Crypt, and Silence will return later and will become optional.

✨ New starting abilities and talents

All starting abilities, as well as the first two tiers of talents, have been reworked for each Path.

The changes are aimed at improving balance and increasing dynamism at the initial levels.

🛠️ Mod Update

Listening to players’ feedback, we have revised the methods of obtaining mods:

• York now has a free daily quest that can be completed to earn a box of common mods.

• Mimicry and unusual mods are now less likely to appear in boxes in favor of rare and epic ones.

• Mods now make equipment personal. Later it will be possible to exchange unnecessary mods for more valuable ones.

📚 Library and Bestiary

Now all collection notes can be read in the library, and the bestiary will open information about monsters: their abilities, drops and features.

🚀 Expanded Start

We have reworked the training design, training quests and updated the rewards in the initial tasks to make the start smoother and more intense.

📝 Minor Changes

• A daily chest icon has appeared on the main screen.

• A simple mod box can now drop from the daily chest.

• Minor adjustments to English translation, improved clarity and consistency across starting locations, talents, and abilities.

• Transition times between locations have been reduced in places where they were 30 seconds.

• Increased the opening time of pop-up windows.

• Healing by 0 is no longer displayed in combat.

• A settings button has been added to the group list with a choice of loot distribution and the ability to leave the group.

• Medallion of the Warrior of Light now has a number of characteristics and does not require a magic shard to use.

• Buffs from Crypt bosses can now be removed.

• Nigel's ability now deals 50% rage damage instead of 70%.

• Lookatlogs now deal less damage. And many other changes.

There's been a lot of radio silence for Project Scrapper, and I hope the wait has been worth it, as I am now announcing Project Scrapper's first content update. There is a lot of new features to look forward to, and today, I'm going to be talking through what to expect. Before I do, thank you to everybody that has tried out Project Scrapper and doubly so to those who gave, give or will give any feedback.

Scrapper bots will continue their zero-gravity analysis by flying across the stars in a spaceship. A large map, players can manipulate the spaceship's course using the levers in the upper and lower control rooms. Warning: manual spaceship piloting will cause untethered objects to accelerate accordingly, possibly dangerously so. The spaceship is also equipped with two airlocks to the left and right. Take care when accessing the airlocks' contents to ensure that other test participants do not initiate the ejection sequence.

Scrapper bots will test their navigation, stealth and environmental detection abilities in the ball pits, a series of four conjoined rooms. Participants can dive into the eponymous ball pits, being submerged and obscured as a result, though the balls will shift as players and objects move about. Participants will also only be able to view the room they are currently located within. If you are searching for another participant, be sure to stay hot on their tail as you can quickly lose sight of each other. Will you take advantage of the balls' cover? Maybe set up an ambush? And as you move, can you quickly identify your target before being accosted?

Collection is about gathering as many tokens as possible in your own collection area. Intrusion is about the opposite, placing as many tokens as possible in opposing participants' collection areas. Each test participant will start with 5 points. Should an intrusion token (the aesthetic inverse to a collection token) be placed in a participant's area, that token will explode after a brief delay, deducting a point from the associated participant. Should a player hit 0 points, they are eliminated. Last player with any points remaining wins the rounds

Players are now able to choose to combine game modes. During the lobby setup when selecting the game mode, a new "Combine Game Modes" option is available. The lobby host will be able to select as few as 1 game mode up to as many as all of the game modes. While playing with multiple modes, any player that completes any of the selected modes wins that round. If Scrapmatch is included, you win if you're the last one standing, if Hat Stack is included, be the first to have 50 hat points, and so on. Determine for yourself exactly how complicated or simple you want each game to play out.

Lobby hosts will now see an additional button to configure the lobby's finer details such as physics settings. Hosts will be able to increase or decrease player movement speed, jump height, player gravity and/or world gravity. There is also a new random playlist feature for both maps and modes. Hosts can configure which maps and modes they want to appear when the setting for each is set to random, so if you want some variety between rounds, but there's a few maps or modes that you don't really vibe with, you can exclude them from potential randomization selection. This also includes the new combined game modes feature, so if you like randomization and Scrapmatch, you can add Scrapmatch + Collection, Scrapmatch + Hat Stack, etc. to your randomization playlist to scratch that itch.

Character customization was previously only available to local play as a quick addition to allow players to tell each other apart (since Project Scrapper currently only uses players' Steam names to identify them in games). After taking some time to iron out the feature's technical aspects, players will now be able to customize their Scrapper bots while playing online.

In addition, new character customization options have been added.

• Astronaut helmet (to prepare you for your continued space exploration)

• Banana hat

• Clown

• Crown

• Gnome

• Kitty ears

• Monocle

• Viking hat

And of course, there's been a few bugs that have been identified and fixed during the development process for this content. More detailed bug notes will be coming soon.

So there's a somewhat brief overview of everything to expect with this upcoming patch. There is a tentative release date of July 23rd should testing and final polishing stay on track.

Hope to see you all then!
