Hello everyone,

Today, we’re diving into one of Fatal Claw’s most exciting systems—Mutant Abilities. These unique

powers let Kisha absorb enemy abilities and use them to survive, explore, and dominate the

underworld!

Ready to see what powers are waiting for you? Let’s take a look!

As we mentioned in our previous dev notes, Fatal Claw features a wide variety of interconnected

regions and stories. You’re free to explore both linear and non-linear zones your way.

But exploration isn’t just about finding the right path. Each area offers its unique design, traps,

puzzles, and monsters. With every new region, a fresh experience awaits—and that’s where Kisha’s

Mutant Abilities shine.

As you unlock these passive skills, your interaction with the same areas or monsters can feel

completely different on your next run, depending on which abilities you've picked up.

In short, they deliver the true Metroidvania experience where every player carves their own path.

Now, let’s check out some of Kisha’s awesome abilities!

"Air or ground, I’m dashing through!"

Use this dash skill before or after a jump to quickly cover distance with a satisfying burst of speed.

Simple, fast, and fun to use.

"Up or down, the wall’s my friend!"

This is your classic wall-climbing ability! Whether scaling up or sliding down, Kisha can cling to

surfaces—even when platforms are nowhere in sight. Handy for navigating cliffs with perilously deep

drops.

"Slippery ice walls? No big deal!"

Unlike Irbes’s Claws, Lyani’s Claws let you climb icy walls without slipping. You can even cling to

vertical surfaces to prep your next move. These two skills may be similar, but this one opens new

tactical options.

"Falling? Nope. I’m gliding."

With Jayma’s Wings, Kisha can slow his descent and ride air currents to soar farther. Even when

jumping from high ledges, you’ll float gracefully and land safely. Perfect for areas with air currents

where you can ride them to navigate both horizontally and vertically!

"Water? Bring it on!"

Kisha hates water—he’s a cat, after all. But with Kuram’s Caudal Fin, he can finally dive in! Swim

freely and battle enemies underwater. Entire submerged zones will now be yours to explore.

"Crouch, roll, and go full speed!"

This ability lets Kisha curl up and roll fast. Normally, crouching slows your movement, but this skill

allows you to go through narrow paths. It even lets you pass over traps or gaps without falling!

Each of Kisha’s Mutant Abilities opens up new ways to explore the world. Some players will scale

walls. Others will glide across gaps. And some? They'll swim right through. It’s all about forging your

own route and playstyle!

We’re also working on more exciting powers, each one crafted to make your adventure even more

dynamic. So stay tuned!

Which of Kisha’s mutant abilities are you most excited about? Or maybe there’s a power you’d love

to see added? Share your thoughts in the comments! Your ideas and imagination always inspire us.

See you in the next notes! 🐾

Hey everyone,

A small patch focused on fixing things and adding Grabbing to the tutorial (yes, you can grab enemies as bodyshields), I've also been experimenting with optimizing some user interfaces since that seems to be the source of the memory leak/lag after long periods of play, but I have not fully resolved the issue yet, still working on it!

I also messed around with the potential for a Replay editor (to see your replays after completing a level), it would require quite a bit of work but it's not impossible- possibly something for the future after more bugfixes and polishing.

Not the biggest patch considering it's been almost a week since the last patch, so I do apologize for that, but the experimenting alongside attempting to profile the game to figure out where the memory issues stem from did take quite a bit of my time.

• FIXED: Dying while Gambler modifier is randomizing causes it to freeze and not reset AND/OR Proceeding level while Gambler modifier is randomizing causes it to freeze and not reset
  
• Added grappling/grabbing tutorial
  
• Fixed some translations in various places (German and Russian)
  
• FIXED: Controller navigation in settings menu is slightly off at the very bottom
  
• FIXED: Enemy bullets counting towards player’s accuracy in specific moments
  
• FIXED: Hiding HUD and then showing it after some gameplay causing a lagspike due to the buildup of UI events waiting until visible
  
• FIXED: Can dive THEN counter causing player to get stuck in counter state and getting soft-locked

Thank you again for all of your patience, feedback and bug reports. I hope y'all are enjoying the game and I hope these patches are improving the overall experience for everyone.

I've seen a lot of the recent reviews and I know that a fair amount of you guys are experiencing lots of bugs and glitches, poor optimization and a generally unfavourable experience with Chapter 1. Just so that I don't keep you guys out of the loop, I'd like to explain a bit of what's going on with the game currently!

We previously announced that Chapter 2: Lonely Ruins began development, and while that still holds true, it admittedly hasn't been our main focus. We've been prioritising development of our so-called "Overhaul" for Chapter 1. The currently public iteration of Chapter 1 was developed purely by me, Daniella Garner, as a solo developer. A lot of the game was rushed in an effort to actually finish and release it, so a lot of gameplay aspects weren't fully considered when developing it. This is most noticeable in the main gameplay loop for "The Ranger Conduit".

As part of our overhaul for the first chapter, we've been completely reworking the game from the ground up. Lots of new gameplay mechanics that weren't seen in the original version, massive graphical and stylistic improvements, audio design improvements and of course, significant changes to our way of storytelling. I feel that all of this is massively required in order for the game to be the best it can be, and I'm sure all of you feel the same way.

We're also partnering with a company to release the game on consoles too, so if you've wanted to play the game but don't have a PC, keep an eye out on our socials as we update everyone on the overhaul! We really want this game to be the best it can be, and we're doing everything we can to ensure that it ends up to ours, and your expectation. We're all very passionate about this game, and I know that a lot of you have found some form of passion for the game too, so we're very adamant on fixing the first chapter and making it an experience that all of you can truly enjoy!

That's it for this development update, I may do more of these, may not, we'll see! I just wanted to let you all know what's been going on behind the scenes... I appreciate you guys for sticking with us through this journey, even if you didn't like Chapter 1.

Thank you!

Daniella Garner (Creator and Game Director at Team Bushside)

Nala is the main protagonist of this story. When we created her, we wanted her to represent someone shaped by a heavy past, a series of seemingly simple events that gradually built into something complex enough to leave gaps in her memory, filling her with regret that suppressed her personality and emotions, fracturing her identity.




Her story revolves around her biggest regret and the heavy burden of living with the thought that she killed her own grandfather in the past. She can’t recall the details of what happened, but she remembers clearly holding her grandfather’s cold body in her little arms.

Nala was an intellectual and creative girl. Now working as a scientist under her foster father, she has detached herself from that creative side because of her trauma. She subconsciously suppresses her emotions. Most of the time she remains calm, passive, and "normal." As a grown-up, she only does what needs to be done, making sure none of her past self ever surfaces.


Nala’s family has all left her in one way or another. The only person she holds very dear now is her foster father, Toga, who took her in after she lost her grandfather. Since then, she has been a kind and obedient daughter to him, working together as a scientist.

Nala is a kind and caring woman. She's also a very hardworking person, very dedicated to her work, sometimes to a fault, prioritizing what her foster father wants before anything.


Nala’s design reflects her simple & straightforward nature and hardworking personality. The green tint in her hair is a trace of her past.
