Core Decay News

Dev Updates & New Forums!

Hello everyone - I want to introduce to you all the new Core Decay website at coredecay.com, and new forum at community.coredecay.com!



Moving forward, this website will be the central place where development updates and news will be posted moving forward, and where it is easiest to get in touch with me directly. Focusing on an independent, self-hosted community is something I have wanted to do for a long time, for a multitude of reasons. Rest assured, I will also share links to important updates here on the Steam forums for those who prefer - but I do want to encourage everyone who is interested to check out the new website. This ensures that everyone interested in communicating directly with the developers and getting the latest news can do so regardless of the platform they might choose to play the game on!

To address a few questions I am sure some of you might have - first and foremost, I am entirely dedicated to seeing the project to completion and am personally working on it every day! I have no specific news to share in regards to the development schedule or involved parties, but it is my full intent to continue to work on Core Decay. I will have more to share on this in the future!

Meanwhile, to get started on sharing a bit of the actual game, I have written two new dev blog posts that are up now, with more to come in the coming months!

In the second Core Decay dev blog post, we take a closer look at a number of individual gameplay mechanics of the game, and the design philosophies that drives them.

[h2]Thank you![/h2]
On a final note, I also want to thank everyone who has supported this project so far. It has been an amazing time working on this dream game of mine, and I am looking forward to being able to share it all with all of you! I'm looking forward to sharing more concrete updates on the future when I am able - until then, enjoy these updates!

Ivar Hill

Imsim Core Decay looks polished, but maybe too Deus Sexy for its own good


Ivar Hill and Slipgate's Core Decay is a Deus Ex and System Shock-flavoured immersive sim that's all about the ABCs. A, of course, stands for Attacking by means of things like energy rifles, electro-batons and shotguns. B is for Back-stabbing, referring to the stealthy player who may stack objects so as to clamber into vents, and whack guards deftly in the noggin to escape detection.


And C is for Conversing, referring to the act of wooing civilians - who thus far seem miraculously unbothered by your menacing hooded appearance and sepulchral accent - so as to procure door codes and the location of keycards. You can see all these approaches in the game's new trailer, below.
