Minor additional Hotfix for 42.12:
- Fixed Linux build not starting.
- Fixed language encoding for some languages.

FIXED

- Fixed shove bug. The call to IsoGameCharacter.Hit() had to have bIgnoreDamage == true for the shove through zombie bug not to occur.
- Fixed melee and ranged targets for other split-screen players being highlighted.
- Fixed very mysterious buildings that were blocking the highway south of Muldraugh.
- Fixed EffectsManager double-freeing models.
- Fixed a vulnerability in the Lua deletion code. Our thanks to Jab for reporting this. This was included in a previous patch to both B41 and B42 but not referenced until now for security reasons as it affected both.

We are proud to announce a first look at our upcoming Tower Defense First-Person Shooter, Crude Survivor TD!

Combining the best of both worlds, the action of a shooter, and the strategy and economy of a Tower Defense game, Crude Survivor was made to be a fresh new take on the popular TD genre.

We hope you'll love it and would love to hear your feedback!

Improvements

• Added stage numbers to each region name in the Portal UI. (ex: \[1-1] Meadow)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where the stage boss chest (blue chest) would not appear in stage 1-9. (※ We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the delay in identifying and fixing this issue.)

• Fixed an issue where equipment placed in the Trading Ship could not be removed after restarting the game.

• Fixed an issue where item grades were not displayed in the Trading Ship item slots.

• Fixed an issue where the skill points text was displayed incorrectly when opening the Status window for the first time.

• Fixed an issue where equipped equipment slots could be clicked while the Trading Ship UI was open.

• Fixed an issue where equipped equipment would disappear and be sent to the mailbox when swapping equipment with a full inventory.

We will continue to update the game to provide you with a better experience.

Thank you.

In Queen of Phalli, power and status depend on passion and promiscuity. It is a world of wonders where only women dwell, ruled by the priestesses of the Queen herself.

Young Elifael El'Naar must soon face her Baptism, a sacred and perilous ceremony that will decide her future. Should she succeed, she may ascend toward priesthood. Should she fail, she risks her mind, her faith, and her place in her House.

To celebrate the launch, we’re releasing a limited-time bundle featuring:

• Queen of Phalli

• Her Last Piece

• Parasite Black

Together, these works stand as a showcase of mature storytelling, exploring transformation, power, and desire in their most unrestrained forms.

• Deep Narrative Immersion – Over 200,000 handcrafted words balancing character, intrigue, and explicit intensity.

• Overly Abundant Sexual Content – Elifael’s journey will cross paths with gnomes, goblins, centaurs, humans, and more.

• Beautiful Hand-Drawn Artwork – Over 200 illustrations, each lovingly painted by human hand.

• Branching Choices & Multiple Endings – Loyalty, love, faith, and power — your decisions shape Elifael’s fate.

• Complex, Mature Themes – In the realms below, everything is about sex — except sex itself. Sex is about power.

Maps have fewer villages and the skill they teach are slightly more aligned with the surrounding tiles.
Resources are tweaked slightly to decrease the probability of large areas having very few resources.

• Expert specialists (Hardy Pioneer, Jesuit Missionary etc.) now use only their profession ("Jesuit Missionary") instead of type+profession ("Missionary (Jesuit Missionary)")
  
• Tile production was not immediately updated after a tile was plowed. Center tile production should always be correct now.
  
• Paine's tax-bonus is now a bonus factor instead of addition (tax rate of 22 is now +22%, not +22 bells)
  
• Garrison-part of the Colony Advistor report is easier to read
  
• Tax is now collected on treasure
  
• Units could equip in europe even if the required goods were boycotted
  
• Fixed some texts

Please report problems in-game, by pressing "Q" or clicking the feedback button in upper right hand corner. These reports include a save-game, screenshot and logs which make it a lot easier to both understand the problem and fixing it. The report is anonymous (but contains your player name and colony names). After sending a report you will receive a ticket number (e.g. CR-176) that can be used to refer to the report in Discord or elsewhere.

Hail, Rebels!

It’s not even been a week since you first lit the fires of resistance against our enemy Azra. Even with that, the whole team at Guard Crush, Supamonks and Dotemu would like to send you a rebellion-sized thank you for your incredible reception for Absolum.

You may have noticed, but we’ve been watching your streams, reading your reviews, lurking in the Discord and scouting online articles from the press and beyond. We’re so honoured that the love and work put into the game has been reflected in the scores, feedback and sentiment from Rebels worldwide.

We also wanted to take a moment to send an extra thank you to every person who worked on the game, and every Rebel out there who took time to jump into Talamh and send us their feedback; Absolum would not be what it is today without your efforts.

BUT - we’re not resting on our laurels. Buoyed by your shouts from the resistance barricades, the team are already actively working on a new content patch, and thinking about the future of Talamh and Absolum in the months (and years) to come.

With you all being trusted members of our Resistance, we know we can trust you to keep a secret. So, here’s the tiniest glimpse of what we’re preparing.

Besides this, of course, we’re also hard at work on hotfixes to address the most significant issues reported - and thank you again for taking the time to let us know. We’ll be back with an update on these soon, as well as our new content patch, so watch for the signal from our Rebel leaders over on the horizons of Steam, X (Twitter), Discord, Bluesky and beyond!

Thank you, once more, Rebels. Your support means more than you know.

May the Rituals be ever in your favour.

The Absolum Team @ Guard Crush, Supamonks and Dotemu

Hope you’re enjoying the game! Meanwhile, we have a small announcement for you. Some of you really liked the music in the game – those rustic tunes for fighting babushkas. So we decided to put them in the store as well!


Whether you’re going to download it and blast it on public transport or simply support the game even more – we got you covered.

That is all for now, thank you for your support! May your kicking leg be strong, tickets – endless, and passengers – obedient.

See ya!
