Crossout - Faley016

Hello, survivors! The “Wolfpack” season is coming to an end. The battle between Steppenwolfs and the Ravagers has led to tragic consequences, and Ivy XO is forced to make a desperate decision: ally with the Khaganate. Now, the Engineers will face the threat of Aris and his Ravagers together with the Lunatics!

This unexpected alliance led to the creation of many unique weapons and modules. Anything to defeat the machines. The first blog entry will focus on the epic charge booster and the legendary crossbow, as well as new frame sizes. Let’s dive in!

We remind you that all the new features described in the “Developer blog” are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all. This applies not only to information about possible unique features of new parts, but also to the appearance of the parts themselves.

“Corax” legendary crossbow

A legendary continuation of the Lunatics’ “Varun”. “Corax” fires heavy projectiles, and if you maintain a certain shooting rhythm, they can send any enemy back to their garage to ponder redesigning their armoured car.

The rhythmic shooting mechanic of the crossbow is similar to its predecessor. You can triple your damage output if you maintain the rate of fire, making the weapon perfect for collected and precise shooters.

However, you don’t always have to follow the fire rate pattern. In that case, the “Corax” will reveal its second forte: the projectile will stick to an enemy’s armour and explode after a moment, showering the target in deadly fragments. First, soften up the enemy with an explosion, and then rhythmically deal damage to them until only a wreckage is left. The basic penetration ability of the weapon exceeds 100%, and will help you in that process. This is a first in the Valley.

P.S. Another explosive crossbow in the Wasteland. makes you wonder, who is really more consistent, the Engineers or the Lunatics…

“Starter” epic charge booster

The Engineers acted as good partners and created a module that synergizes well with charging weapons. A great companion piece for “Corax”!

The “Starter” provides you with a much-needed help in starting your car in winter 20% reduction of shot charging time and barrel spool-up time! This is quite a boost, so there’s a limit of one module per build.

When the Dawn’s Children found out about the “Starter”, they felt like it might be a strong rival to their “Power unit”. So the new module can’t be used with plasma emitters. Diplomacy wins.

New frames

This time, there are new standard and heavy frames in sizes 1x7 and 2x7, as well as an L-shaped frame 6×4×1.


Please note that after the season ends, you will be able to get the new frames at a workbench for Engineer badges.

And this is only the beginning! See you in the next entry, coming very soon. Stay tuned.

Youtubers Life 3 - Stream Together! - jaume.noguera
Hello Youtubers! 👋

During Early Access, Youtubers Life 3 - Stream Together! allowed you to record 5 different types of videos. The main difference between them was the benefits they provided when published — mainly a views bonus. There were also a few dependencies: for example, to record a “Review” video, you first had to have published at least two “Gameplays” of the same game.

While this system worked, it was somewhat limited, both in immersion and narrative.
As a YouTuber simulator, it didn’t quite capture the feeling of choosing what kind of content to create, and the formula remained almost identical to previous entries.

With the final version, we want to change that. Our goal is for each video type to have narrative meaning, with deeper mechanics and a richer, more varied experience. In addition, not all of them will be game-related: you’ll now also be able to record other kinds of content, such as reactions, vlogs, podcasts, and unboxings.

Here are the details 👇

🕹️ Game-Related Videos

🎮 First Impressions
This one stays the same: you can only record one first impression per game.

🕹️ Gameplay
The most basic type, accessible from the start. You can record up to 4 gameplays of the same game.

🧩 Review
To record a review, you must first have made at least 2 gameplays of the same title. Here’s where things get interesting: you’ll now have to choose the tone of your review — positive or negative. As explained in the devlog about karma, you’ll need to decide whether to be honest with your followers or stay on the good side of the game developer.



⚡ SpeedRun (new)
The SpeedRun is a brand new video type that replaces the old “Commentary”. It has two key features:
  • More demanding recording 🏃‍♂️ No mistakes allowed: if you fail a response during recording, you lose all progress from that session. We want to capture the real tension of a speedrun, where a single mistake can ruin the whole run.
  • Games recommended for SpeedRun. Some titles in the store will have a special icon 🏃‍♀️‍➡️. If you record a SpeedRun of those games, you’ll get a view bonus.


📦 Non-Gaming Videos

🎥 Streaming
No changes: you can still record a stream and publish it later as a video.

📦 Unboxing
New feature!
Every time you receive a package at home, you’ll now be able to record an unboxing. Just like with reviews, you’ll be able to decide how you rate the product — positively or negatively — which will affect the video’s outcome.



You’ll be able to record unboxings of any product you receive at home. 📦✨



🎤 Interviews
At in-game events, you’ll find characters you can interview. Some will accept right away, while others may require you to meet certain conditions before agreeing. Each interview offers different bonuses (virality, views, etc.), so it’ll be worth seeking them out.



😮 Reactions
You can now record reactions to content published by other players. This content can include:
  • 📸 Photos on Instalife
  • 📹 Videos on NewTube
When you see a small icon on one of these posts, you’ll be able to record your reaction directly from there.



During recording, you’ll have to choose your emotion from 5 possible responses. Each one will modify the properties and performance of the final video when published.



📢 Vlogs
Vlogs let you talk about a trending topic or piece of news. You can record them at home or on-site, but first you’ll need to obtain a news item. These can be acquired by attending events, talking to NPCs, entering VIP areas, or joining conferences, among other activities.



Each piece of news has a quality level and a credibility value. You can spend time verifying its authenticity before recording, which will improve your final video score.



🎧 Podcasts (new multiplayer mode)
Podcasts are one of the biggest additions: a completely new multiplayer minigame. We want you to experience what it feels like to be part of a real podcast, sharing your opinions on various topics.



Here’s how it works:
  • It’s played in turns.
  • Each turn features a topic, and each participant must give their opinion.
  • If you pick the right topic while no one else is talking, you’ll use up one “topic icon.”
  • If you speak at the same time as another player, you’ll earn two icons.
  • The winner is the one who runs out of topics first. 🎙️
The result of the minigame will be a video whose final quality level depends on your performance during the match.

🧩 Conclusion
And that’s it for this week’s devlog 🎬 These changes are huge, and we believe they add plenty of new gameplay possibilities. We want every video type to feel unique, with its own challenges and rewards.

As always, we’ll be listening closely to your comments and feedback to keep improving.
Thanks for joining us for another week! ❤️

See you in the next devlog.

Red Bow: Strange Dream - Stranga

UPDATE! I wish to apologize to everyone as Red Bow Strange: Dream may be delayed for release by a day or two. Some major bugs have been found with the games achievements that I must address, and they won't be fixed before release. My apologies again, but I am working on it!

FUTURO DARKO RACER - FDR

Hi!

It was a wonderful three days at Poznań Game Arena! Great people, a wonderful atmosphere, tons of knowledge, ideas, and advice.

The feedback from Futuro Darko RACER players is truly inspiring, and with the kind of feedback I've received, it's sure to be a hit.

Thank you to the Indie Games Polska Foundation for the opportunity to participate in this incredible event!

Mechabellum - MaxMagnusMaximum

In the previous patch, we optimized the performance and stability of combat calculations. These optimizations also introduced some minor issues. This patch will fix these issues:

  • Fixed the issue where \[Smart Marksman] and \[Smart Arclight] were leveling up too fast.

  • Fixed the issue where units controlled by hackers would cause incorrect damage to players' HP.

  • Fixed the issue where Crawler with \[Subterranean Blitz] would always emerge from the ground 10 seconds after the start of battle.

Alteratio - darkxinYT
New build available on Steam! This update focuses on robustness, visual readability, and systemic tuning. High-level details:

Performance

    [] Reworked asset streaming and texture compression with a new preset to minimize I/O spikes.[] Reduced GC spikes (transient allocations) in critical loops and FX systems.
  • Lightweight parallelization with Jobs/Burst where applicable.

Graphics & Visibility


    [] Recalibrated exposure curves and eye adaptation; improved tonemapping for localized darkness.[] Adjusted post-process volumes (URP): balanced Bloom, Vignette, and Color Adjustments for the night scene.[] Fixed Depth of Field and render-pass ordering to avoid artifacts during transitions.[] Addressed banding and flicker on specular surfaces on certain GPUs.

Gameplay & AI: Wendigo


    [] Adjusted sensory thresholds (vision/spatial perception) and state-transition timings in the FSM.[] Reworked pathfinding and navmesh carving to prevent getting stuck on unintended geometry.[] Fine-tuned synchronization between punishment windows and response cooldowns; the risk profile remains intact.[] Small variations in patrol patterns and reaction latencies to avoid deterministic behavior.

Stability & Bug Fixes


    [] Resolved clipping cases in soft collisions with doors and level edges.[] Fixed sequences that could cause softlocks when interrupting chained triggers.[] Corrected save/load state handling for certain interactables.[] Eliminated intermittent crashes related to late shader initialization on specific hardware.

Thanks for the reports and for playing Alteratio. If you spot anything out of place after this build, share it on the Steam Community Hub: it helps us iterate faster.
