Build 2019 September 5th is now available!

Since our early access release about a week ago, we have been hard at work fixing bugs and improving performance of the game. We also had a bit of time to sprinkle in a little bit of additional content and balance changes. Thanks to all of our awesome players who take the time to send us valuable feedback and report bugs.


One of the main features of this update is improvements to the performance of the game. We will work more on performance improvements as the early access development progresses, but this is the first of many steps towards bringing you a buttery experience.

Some of these performance changes include:

• More objects culled when you don't need to see them.
  
• Improved cpu rendering performance by reducing some un-needed overhead.
  
• Corpses now disappear after a short time (loot bags will not disappear until looted).
  

As early access progresses, you can expect to see a lot of balance tweaks as we hone in on the most fun setup. In this update, we have tweaked the ranges and minimum damage of all weapons. Globally, all weapons now have a minimum damage of 50% instead of 20% previously. As a general rule, weapons deal max damage up to their effective range, and then they drop off to their minimum damage over twice that distance. Also, the effective range on shotguns and repeaters have been increased, allowing you to do full damage from further away.


In terms of content, our current focus is to continue to fill out the later levels the game. While there is content for these levels currently. It is not yet as dense as the first half. In this update, we've added a new quest and some new points of interest. Look for more to come soon.
