We're still busy developing the Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2, and today, we would like you to meet some of our colleagues from the team that is putting this upcoming map expansion together, as they all have a short message for our #BestCommunityEver!

There are, of course, more people across the company who are contributing to the Iceland map expansion, but in this blog, we'd like to introduce you to six members of the map design team - part of a talented group of ten designers in total, led by Ivo and including two external colleagues.

"Iceland is my dream project. As a Map Lead, I was there at its beginning, and I am very happy that we can bring our players the unique landscape and a slightly different experience than in other parts of the map, with an emphasis on small roads and sparsely populated areas with majestic views. As a fan of Old Norse history, I have been interested in Iceland for a long time, and I am delighted when I can discover some of the places I know from Icelandic sagas. From this also comes the advantage that Icelandic is not as challenging for me as it is for my colleagues who are encountering it for the first time. Although Iceland is smaller in size, it is a very demanding challenge in terms of landscape construction, but my team and I are doing our best to convey its beauty to the players."

"Hi! My name is Andrea, and before Iceland, I was working on the Nordic Horizons DLC. It was quite a journey since it was my first project here, but I have learned so much throughout the whole production - not only about the map editor, but also real-life locations, traffic rules, etc. I'm so glad I can use all the experience for the beautiful scenery of Iceland. The nature there is truly breathtaking, and we will do our best to reproduce the ethereal atmosphere for you."

"I joined the SCS team in 2021, largely by chance, I would say. Before that, I was a huge fan of PC and console gaming, but I never thought I could also create beautiful video game worlds and be part of this mysterious world. It turns out I can, and it's incredibly exciting. I doubt there's another job as amazing as this one. I'm excited to have had the opportunity to work on Iceland - one of the most unique countries in the world, one that often doesn't even look like our planet. And when you can create something truly beautiful, inspiring, and unique for so many people around the world with your own hands, it's an incredible feeling. I'm surrounded by great people here, and we work in a fantastic office with everything we need for work. And all we have to do is create and do the best we can for our players."

"I joined SCS in 2023 after finishing Art School, looking for a job where I can stay creative. I've always loved building things in PC games and exploring maps in RPGs, so to get to build small worlds for a living is really a treat. So far, I've worked on both Greece DLC and Nordic Horizons DLC - each very different, though both immensely fun! Now I'm excited to work on Iceland's very unique landscape, marvelling at the overall beauty, the abundance of rocks, and the lack of trees, hoping to put as many sheep as humanly possible into the map."

"At the end of 2022, I decided to follow my dream of working on a video game. Back then, it felt like a risk, since I had to leave my home city and enter an unknown territory, but now I know that it was the best decision of my life. I really enjoy building map areas knowing that players will get to explore and enjoy them. Personally, I like it the most when I can build more complicated roads with turns, elevations, hills, and mountains. Because of that, I am super happy that I get to work on Iceland even though at first its unique environment felt confusing to me. But after a while, I was able to orient myself, and now I enjoy the challenge. I am looking forward to the release, and I hope everyone will have a lot of fun playing it. Follow your dreams and keep on truckin'."

"I'm incredibly excited to see that each new DLC is another step forward, both for the company and for each of us personally. Iceland proves to be a wonderfully unique challenge, with its one-of-a-kind landscapes, plant life, and breathtaking sights - from towering mountains to countless waterfalls, from fjords to narrow, winding roads - where the experience of the entire team, across every department, was truly invaluable. Of course, Iceland isn't just about awe-inspiring scenery; its towns, settlements, and ports, harmoniously intertwined with nature, gave us the chance to fully capture the island's diversity while keeping it whole and cohesive. I can't wait for the moment we get to share this DLC with the community."

And that's it for today! We hope you are excited about this upcoming map expansion! Remember to support us by adding the Iceland DLC to your Steam wishlist. Don't forget to give our X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, and TikTok a follow as you'll receive updates about our games straight to your feed, or subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed!

Combat balance adjustments have been made.
The main purpose of these adjustments is to prevent inflation.

- Nerfed the seal system
- Changed enemy character behavior patterns

EDIT: A quick hotfix was pushed for this branch to un-break the Survival pause menu that I managed to break

Hello all!

I got a few more minor issues reported and wanted to get a patch out for them while testing continues on the Unity 6 engine upgrade.

Details below!

• The cooldown for picking up thrown axes has been reduced to make them a bit less awkward to retrieve

• The Menu key (Escape/Start) can now be used to exit the Automap

• A potential fix was added for edge cases where players switched to the beta branch during the Manor but before they retrieved their gear, where the upgrade table stored in the gear was not lining up with the adjusted upgrade table size.

• You should be able to properly Zoom In / Out on the Automap once again. It seems that somewhere along the Unity upgrade chain, the scale that mouse wheel deltas are reported in was changed, so it was technically zooming, but in barely perceptible amounts!

• You should no longer be able to cancel out of the Game Over menu using a gamepad

• The Automap should now properly rotate on gamepad

• A few instances of gamepad glyphs failing to load have been fixed

• Some erroneous textures on E2M9 were properly assigned materials

• A discrepancy in the sawed-off reload speed has been fixed, so the alt-fire should cycle at the same speed regardless of whether you're holding the fire button down or not

• The "infinite reload" on the C96's new burst fire has been fixed

• An erroneous "Check" message on a door in E1M3 has been fixed

• All options on the Accessibility menu should now properly reset to their default values when prompted

• The FPS counter has been arranged lower on the HUD canvas, so that it should lay behind the fader backdrop when the weapon wheel or automap are open.

So…this update ended up being nothing like what I originally planned! °∀°

I've always felt that Emberward has one big issue that's really hard to solve: whether you play Roguelite Mode or Endless Mode, a full run takes a loooong time to finish. But TD games are naturally time-consuming, and when you add maze-building on top of that, the thinking time makes the game even longer. It's kind of a built-in limitation of the genre, so it's very difficult to find a fix for it.

But a few days after the last update, Youtube randomly showed me a video about chess endgame puzzles (…I don't even play chess, no idea why it showed up but it was interesting). And it made me think: Is there a way to create a faster game mode using a puzzle-like structure?

So I spent some time messing around with the idea, and it ended up being pretty fun and felt like it had a lot of potential! That's why I decided to add this totally unplanned new mode.

Basically, unlike the other modes where you gradually scale up your power, this one gives you a limited set of towers, blocks and resources right away. (More like a puzzle instead of a roguelite) Your only goal is to squeeze out the absolute best defence you can from that fixed set and survive as long as possible in each wave. Since every player gets the exact same setup, the leaderboard becomes a much clearer reflection of actual skill. It's great for players who love optimizing and pushing limits, or people who don't have much time to play.

Anyway, just go try it out and let me know what you think! I'll be checking everyone's feedback to see if I should spend more time expanding this mode or not.

---

• New Game Mode: Enigma Sanctum!

  A sacred domain built within the academy. Conducting endless simulations for the one flawless strategy.

  • This mode includes Daily Challenge, Weekly Challenge and Random Challenge.

  • In Daily and Weekly Challenges, all players face the same stages and are given the same towers and cards.

  • Each game consists of three rounds. At the start of every round you receive a new set of towers and cards and must maximize the defence using this loadout.

  • Once battle begins, monsters spawn continuously until one of them reaches the Fire Source, then the battle stops and the next round begins.

  • Killing monsters awards points, and the leaderboard is ranked by your total score.

  • Since the rules are very different here, only Feri, Chunk and Tana are available in this mode.

• Added the final talent: Royal Emblem

  • At the start of each adventure, you can pick the cards you want from the Royal Library!

  • To keep the rules simple, the Academy's unlimited reroll mechanic has been removed.

• Arcane element rework

  • Arcane towers now apply Fragile to hit monsters, increasing their chance of taking critical hits.

  • Different towers apply different amounts of Fragile. (Bigger, slower or close‑range towers apply more per hit.)

  • Fragile gradually decays over time.

  • The Arcane Missile Tower keeps its original effect (always critically hit against enemies with more than 80 % HP)

  • Relic Forbidden Grimoire reworked: applying Fragile to monsters below 40 % HP has double effect, and Fragile decays at half speed on monsters below 20 % HP.

• You can now see screenshots of other players' final configurations on the leaderboard.

• Because data from old versions and pirated games were affecting the leaderboards, leaderboards are no longer shared across versions.

  (Which means all leaderboards will reset with each update.)

• Laser Tower: Charging speed reduced and energy decays faster, but decay only begins after it has not attacked for one second.

  The Laser Tower is currently too powerful. It's intended to be a 1×1 tower with higher damage but has a clear weakness. So rather than changing its damage values, I want to first try to make its weak points more obvious.

• Portal Tower: Now displays how many monsters it has teleported in the tooltip.

• Thunder Tower: The red upgrade now instantly applies 100 % Fragile, divided evenly among all hit monsters.

• Magic Arrow Tower: Damage increased from 12 to 15.

• Axe Tower: Damage increased from 12 to 14.

• Froststorm Tower: Range reduced from 11 to 7.5.

• Flamethrower Tower: Damage tick rate changed from 2.5 to 2.

• Scythe Tower: Damage increased from 15 to 18.

• Hammer Tower: Damage increased from 60 to 65.

• Slime Tower: Damage increased from 5 to 6.

• Torch Tower: Bounce chance increased from 30 % to 40 %.

• Cauldron Tower: Range increased from 7 to 8.

• Chainball Tower: Red upgrade damage bonus increased from +20 to +30.

• Dart Tower: Attack speed increased from 1 to 1.25.

• Added a new option in the settings to automatically build towers continuously without holding Shift key.

• Fixed an issue where leaving the game at the moment of defeat would cause the game to freeze.

• Fixed an issue in Endless Mode where opening a chest and receiving a new reward at the same time would cause the game to freeze.

• Fixed an issue with Tana where upgrade card effects copied by Echo Crystal were temporary.

• Fixed an issue where the Smithing Mask increased the attack speed of the Black Hole Tower.
