Announcing our next game "Propagation: Paradise Hotel"

Today, we are proud to unveil the project on which WanadevStudio's team has been working for the past few months.

After more than 350 thousand downloads of Propagation VR, the short free experience that put us on the map, and thanks to its very enthusiastic reviews, we decided to expand the universe with Propagation: Paradise Hotel, a gripping VR solo survival horror adventure, that will emphasize key features of the genre:
  • Immersive story: Live a full-fledged scenario that will make you experience extreme emotions and take you through intense phases of exploration, stealth, and action
  • Vast environment: Explore the Paradise Hotel, once a beautiful building, now in an apocalyptic situation
  • Advanced game mechanics: Realistic weapon handling, Self-Healing, Environment searching, Puzzles
  • Horror atmosphere: Attention to detail in the graphic and sound quality for incredibly immersive horror, and of course, terrifying encounters with zombies, mutants, and more...

We plan to release Propagation : Paradise Hotel at the end of 2022, and make it available on all major VR platforms.

Keep track of the game development by adding it to your Steam wishlist, and following WanadevStudio on social media (Twitter, Facebook, Discord, Instagram)!

We just released a spooky new update. Travel through viking hell with 2 new free songs! Here's everything you will find in the Helheim update:

  • [h3]2 New Songs[/h3]
    Play a catchy new song by Æther Realm - "Redneck Vikings from Hell" (level 3/7/10) and the dark and twisted "Mediator" by Jinjer (level 4/6/8).

  • [h3]Helheim, travel through hell[/h3]
    Where do vikings go when they die in shame instead of bravery? Find out and enter the realm of death of the goddess Hel, towering over the vainquished souls.



  • [h3]Helheim-themed lobby and hammer[/h3]
    To celebrate Halloween, the tavern just had a makeover. But that's not all: a new hammer skin is available! Unlike other hammers, no need to work towards an Achievement, you'll just have to open your eyes and look carefully to find it... But be quick, the Halloween tavern and the chance to win the hammer are only there for a limited time (two weeks, until Nov 11th)!



  • [h3]New Gameplay Settings[/h3]
    New settings allowing to set:
    - Display beat lines : adds lines corresponding to the beats in the music, to better see the rhythm
    - Rune color : allows to choose among new rune colors for better visibility
    - Mirrored runes : reverses the rune patterns horizontally (right-handed heavy songs will become left-heavy)
    - Rune speed : override the speed at which the runes travel
    All these effects are applied on all songs/maps, and also in multiplayer. They do not modify scoring or the way scores are saved.



  • [h3]Song list update[/h3]
    - Song list separated into volumes: Volume 1, Volume 2, and custom songs
    - Sorting panel allowing to sort songs by increasing/decreasing artist, title, difficulty, or date
    - Songs containing explicit content are flagged with an "E" icon
    - "My Precious" achievement only requires gold medals for Volume 1



  • Medals and personal ghosts are now automatically saved online (meaning they will be restored on reinstall)

  • Added horizontal scroll on hammer selector
  • Other small UI updates
  • Fix black oars on other boats
  • Fix missing "me" icon on friends leaderboard


That's it for today! As usual, we are still hard at work so stay tuned. We want to thank you for playing, giving us feedback, and inspiring us to keep improving Ragnarock! We read your suggestions very carefully so feel free to leave us reviews, or chat with the dev team on our Discord channel!
