30XX News

Hey, folks! Toward the end of the Steam Summer Festival, we'll be playing the game on stream for a few hours and talking about some of the designs & processes involved in making 30XX.

Come see! We're currently planning for 6PM PT on Saturday, June 20 - we'll probably run for two hours or so. This time is subject to change - we may move it if we find a spicy spot in the calendar!

Hope to see you there!

Hello! The demo's been live for about two hours, now, so it's probably time for a patch. This 0.10.1 patch smooths out the demo a bit, and makes early Memoria acquisition easier.

Thanks for playing!

CHANGES:

- Added Memoria drops after minibosses.
- Fixed a chunk invisible wall collision issue.
- Falling Spikes (Echocave) no longer count as enemies that must be killed in a Contemplation Room wave.
- Fixed a few options menu bugs.
- Added a string indicating that the Autocharge setting only works once it's been unlocked.
- Demo enemies are more likely to drop health/energy/armor.
- Added a new animation to a very important NPC.
- Slightly boosted the player-takes-damage SFX volume.
- Fixed Salvager text appearing before it's unlocked.

Hey, folks! We're happy to get to announce that 30XX will have a playable demo during this year's Steam Summer Festival! You'll be able to get a taste of where the game's headed well before we get there.



We intend to treat the festival week a bit like "Early Access Week Zero" for 30XX - we'll be listening to your feedback, chatting with you about the game (on Discord and on our Steam Community), and iterating as we go! The demo features two of the game's level themes (of 10!), and a light look at our overhauled roguelike progression system. Hope you're ready! The demo will go away when the festival ends (June 14th). We'll be doing some more public streaming/community chats/etc around that time, too! Stay tuned.

If you can't wait for the 9th to dig in with the 30XX community, we're also starting up a series of 30XX Town Hall chats on Twitch (twitch.tv/batterystaplegames). The next one is this coming Friday, May 29th, at 4PM PT. We'll be digging into Ace's new systems, talking about the upcoming Steam Festival, and more! (We might also share some new level stuff.. if it's ready in time. We'll see!)

Hope you can join us - thanks for reading! Stay safe, contractors.
