DEVOUR News

Everyone loves a sneak peak. Here's a look at some of the concept art for Molly, who will be hunting you down in the new, upcoming DEVOUR map. We've also included a look at some of the other visual elements of the map's environment - a creepy, private asylum.

Please note that all of the following images are concept art and NOT final representations of what you will see in-game. We are continuing to tweak the map, so the final result might be slightly different.









We are only a small team, so we can't say for sure when the new map will be ready. We are working as hard as we can! Do expect more DEVOUR updates, so keep on checking in.

While our priority is working on the next map for DEVOUR, we also wanted to release a bunch of exciting new features to continue to improve our game for players. Today we are releasing v1.1. Please read below for more details on all of the changes!

[h2]Hard mode[/h2]

Our goal is for DEVOUR to have plenty of replayability. That being said, we understand that Nightmare mode is brutally challenging and has only been completed by our more hardcore players.

From today you can now play a new Hard mode which sits inbetween the existing modes.

1. Normal: The base difficulty. Unchanged.
   
2. Hard: New! UV flashlight has reduced capacity and regen speed. (Beat Normal to unlock)
   
3. Nightmare: The hardest difficulty. Unchanged. (i.e. No UV flashlight). (Beat Hard to unlock)
   

[h2]New Robes[/h2]

Hard Robe: Unlocked by completing the new Hard mode



Nightmare Robe: Unlocked by completing the Nightmare mode. (This replaces the old bloody robe)



Fire Robe: Unlocked by completing the "Twisted Firestarter!" achievement (Lit altar 100 times)



[h2]New Achievements[/h2]



[h2]Lobby Redesign[/h2]

In order to make room for new robes, characters and maps we have redesigned the Lobby UI. While we do plan to improve other parts of the UI, the Lobby has always been our priority.

This patch addresses an issue where demons would sometimes get stuck when trying to grab players. Nothing else to see!

We've been working nonstop since the release of DEVOUR to bring you our next map. We wanted to continue sharing content with you as we progress through its development and so here are a few new screenshots of the private mental asylum where players will find Molly... or what is left of her!









Please understand that as a small team, this process takes time. We cannot yet tell you exactly when it will be finished, but we're going as fast as we can and will announce its release date when we're ready.

We are also working on our first "feature" release (also known as v1.1.0) which will contain a new difficulty mode and 2 new robes to unlock. We hope to release this in the next week or so.

As always, thank you so much for your support and feedback. We will continue to post regular developer updates like these as we move closer to bringing you the next map.
