Many thanks to everyone. After the release of the Kubeon's demo, players pointed out some bad input behaviours. Everythings has been fixed and the Steamdeck compatibility has been checked (thanks to some people on Reddit).

Here is the full patch note :

• D-PAD inputs has been added to the game

• A and B buttons has been reversed to meet the largest number of controllers (every PS and XBOX controllers basically)

See you later for a futur update ! <3

Residents claim “nothing strange ever happens here.” You may want to bring your camera anyway.

On September 12th at 16:00 CEST / 07:00 PT, the Nothing Strange Here demo will be live. Step into Larcenest Gap as a curious journalist, where:

• Neighbors seem friendly… maybe a little too friendly.

• Every photo you take might raise more questions than answers.

• The line between wholesome and bizarre is blurrier than the local newspaper’s printing press.

Explore, investigate, and snap your way through the demo and see if you can uncover what’s hiding in plain sight.

Wishlist now so the town remembers to leave the light on for you.

We missed posting some of our past devlogs here on Steam — so now we’re catching up! Each week, we’ll share another devlog from the previous months until we’re up to date with the latest one. This way, you can see the full journey of Space Tournament so far. 🚀

Greetings Sleepers, 

Join us on September 4th at 9AM PT/12PM ET/6PM CEST for a new livestream with the Dune: Awakening development team. 

To make it easier to stay up to date with our plans for the game, and to have regular community check-ins, we are introducing two types of live streams: 

The upcoming stream on September X will be a Developer Update Livestream. This is where we present upcoming updates coming to the game, giving you a look at the content and gameplay ahead of time. 

We aim to hold these streams as early as we can, generally. This time, due to Gamescom, it will be held a bit closer to the update’s release. 

In these streams, we take the opportunity to discuss where the game is at, what we're working on improving and fixing, and what you can expect going forward. The Sietch Talk livestreams won't feature major content announcements, instead focusing primarily on community conversations. 

Our upcoming Developer Update Livestream will be hosted by our Global PR Manager Natascha, and include several of our developers as we guide you through what you can expect in the Chapter 2 free update and The Lost Harvest DLC.  

Plant your feet firmly, Sleepers, for the sands of Arrakis are shifting. 

Watch it here.

Until next time, Sleepers. 

Our drone has just received its final texture version. It’s not a shiny gadget fresh from the factory – its surface shows signs of wear, as if it remembers abandoned laboratories and the weight of Tarvos’s industrial world. Thanks to this, it will not only blend into the dark atmosphere but also become a believable part of the environment. It’s equipment that players will encounter in the full version of the game.






But the drone’s usefulness doesn’t end with blending into the dark setting – from the very beginning, we planned for it to become an active companion. Hovering by the player, it will:

• Lock onto enemies: instantly identifies threats and warns the player.
  
• Provide fire support: opens fire, distracting opponents and giving you a moment to counterattack.

Imagine exploring ruined corridors as the drone quietly flashes its sensors, fires precise shots, and lets the player focus on survival and tactics – the drone becomes an ally and… a living part of the world.


The next step is to adjust the AI to dynamic combat situations and test how the drone reacts to the chaos of battle – whether it truly helps or still needs fine-tuning so it doesn’t distract the player.


We hope this quick insight into our work on the drone brought you a little closer to our daily life as developers and the atmosphere we’re aiming for. What do you think about the drone as a companion? What extra feature would you give it? Share your ideas in the comments and don’t forget to add Tarvos Desolation to your wishlist if you haven’t already – it’s the best way to help us keep growing the game!

4. Fixed the issue where the dice can still be clicked with a certain probability when an event is triggered.
