[h2]The Family Secret... [/h2][p][/p][p]In Hazard Levels, your HQ is a traditional British pub and in-between expeditions you'll be able to customise your outfit, review mission intel, or drop a coin in the jukebox. However, hidden deep below the Fox Hole Arms lies the secret behind The Family and the reasoning for your missions. A brewery. You have been hired as a part of the R&D division of The Family's enterprise, to fuel this secret brewery and push their magical concoctions to the limit. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]You'll be able to sample these experimental drinks brewed from your harvested otherworldly rift ingredients. Emphasis on the EXPERIMENTAL. Some will grant powerful abilities… others can cause complete chaos. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]What do you think of these features that you can expect for Hazard Levels in Early Access?

[h2]Monsters and Creatures and Mutants, Oh My![/h2][p][/p][p]Welcome back for another game feature update! Discovering and harvesting ingredients in rifts won't come without its challenges. You'll find terrifying creatures lurking within every dimension. Whether you're alone or with friends you'll need to approach each threat carefully if you want to survive. [/p][p][/p][p]Study their behaviour and learn their weaknesses as every rift creature will have unique abilities or attributes which can cause potentially devastating consequences to your mission if you come within their sights. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Once you are armed with the information about your monstrous foe, you'll need to avoid becoming their next victim. As Hazard Levels will be a gunless survival horror experience, you'll need stealth and perhaps more creative solutions to distract them. See below for just one example...[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We'll be back next week with more features that you can expect for Hazard Levels in Early Access!

[h2]What Lies Await in the Rifts?[/h2][p][/p][p]Welcome back for another game feature update! We've shown you how you'll be able to track and travel through interdimensional rifts, and how every delve will be a newly procedurally generated adventure...but the biggest question remains. What exactly are you looking for? [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Rifts in Hazard Levels are teeming with ingredients that The Family desires - more on them soon. From mutated mushrooms, to cosmic fruit...to even Quantum Chickens, you'll need to discover and harvest these rare ingredients that all come with varying valuations. Naturally, the most valuable loot lies deeper within the rifts but quotas will need to be met before you can progress. The Family won't be happy if you come back with nothing. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]There's another piece of essential kit that you'll need if you're going to maximise your time descending through the rifts. The Gravity Gauntlet enables every wearer to collect up to four items at a time but be careful as these ingredients can get damaged and lose value.
