DEVOUR News

v1.0.20

We're continuing to improve and tweak DEVOUR's first map. Whilst we cannot implement every suggestion we get, we do listen to your feedback and continue to use it in our decision making. So please keep it coming!

[h2]Changes[/h2]
  • Anna's UV time to stagger scales in the same way that it does for demons in single player (i.e. slightly less time required to stagger)
  • Anna is less accurate at knowing where a distressed carried goat is in single player and nightmare mode
  • Nightmare robe is now correctly unlocked when beating nightmare mode in single player
  • Anna's chase growl from goat 7 is now slightly louder
  • Player robes are no longer transparent when looking at them from below
  • Icon is shown in the bottom right corner of the screen when there are packet loss or connectivity issues
  • Being held by a demon no longer disables the players crouch state
  • Anna's chase growl from goat 7 is now slightly louder

v1.0.19

As always, thanks for your support. Here is another patch that we've been working on over the weekend that tweak some gameplay mechanics.

[h2]Changes[/h2]
  • When reviving a player, the other player will also see the revive circle icon
  • Goats left near the altar will wonder back towards the house
  • Demons should no longer try to grab another player when already close to a player
  • A random of 3 different fail endings is picked instead of picking one based on number of goats burned
  • You can now burn demons with UV faster if multiple players focus them
  • The KO achievement should now be awarded reliably
  • Cultists no longer have horns in the endings
  • Fixed an issue where sometimes the flashlight would be stuck on UV color after flickering

v1.0.18

We're continuing to iron out any issues we find in the game to ensure you get the best experience in our first map. Thanks again for all the feedback via our Discord server.

[h2]Changes[/h2]
  • Jumpscares are now rendered ingame rather than as a video. This should help with those that were seeing black screens instead of the video.
  • Added profanity filter to server names and chat messages. This can be disabled in gameplay options.
  • Added a Hide Private toggle on the Server Browser
  • Added Romanian and Slovakian translations
  • Blocked off a few areas that could allow players to get outside of the world colliders
  • Improved character movement so that there is less friction when touching walls. This also helps when walking slowly up staircases.
  • Altar no longer occludes audio.
  • Fixed a spot near the stable where a goat could fall through the ground. This is an edge case and would have caused them to respawn inside the house.
  • Possible fix for scenarios where players in the game session were given a different game state (e.g. collisions on/off or proximity voice chat on/off)

v1.0.17

Hey all. It's officially been 1 week since we released DEVOUR. Thank you all so much for the support. Here is another small patch to iron out a few bugs.

Please keep reporting any issues you have with the game directly to us in Discord and we'll do our best to help resolve them.

[h2]Changes[/h2]

  • Prevent an issue where Anna would get stuck in the ground when knocking someone out
  • Demons will no longer get stuck holding a player if they are inside the cage
  • Fixed an issue with certain gamepads that would force the UV to stay activated
  • Prevents the game application from not being able to close correctly sometimes

New robe for "Leave No One Behind" achievement

When we set out to create DEVOUR, we wanted it to be an affordable, fun and scary experience to share with friends. It's been a blast watching you all play DEVOUR. It's crazy to think that it's not even been a week since we launched the game and already we have seen so much great content from the community.

We'd like to thank you all for playing the game so far. That's why we've added a brand-new achievement and robe for you to try and unlock with your friends!

[h2]Leave No One Behind[/h2]
The "Leave No One Behind" achievement is awarded to players who complete a co-op game without anyone being knocked out. If you unlock this achievement, you will get access to the new Black & Gold robe!



We are working hard on bringing the new map to you as soon as possible. We can't tell you exactly when, but hopefully it will be in the near future.

Thanks again to all of you, and remember: try not to drop your goats.
