Zeepkist Devlog: Achievements

I'm still hard at work on the online multiplayer update! It's been about two months since I started working on it, but I think we're not far off now!

Most big systems work, but there's still some missing, and there's still some other bits and bobs that need attention before I can really push it live onto Steam. You'll hear about it soon!

For now:



As some of you might have noticed, I've replaced the "Play Zeepkist Alpha" achievement with a simple "Play Zeepkist". This is because it's been brought to my attention that there's quite a few people here on Steam who like to 100% achievements in games, and an achievement that can only be obtained during the game's alpha would make it impossible for people to 100% Zeepkist's achievements.

So this old achievement:


Is now this one:


But why is there a Zeepkist on the achievement? 👀

Because more than just looking neat on your Steam profile, I've coupled Steam's achievement system to actual in-game cosmetics! Meaning that for every achievement you get, you'll be able to show it off in-game to all of your friends! (or rivals, who am I to judge!)

Adding achievements is going to be an ongoing process, and for the online multiplayer update I'll be adding Zeepkist's first 7 achievements!

They are, in order:

Online Winner x1
It's an internet cable!

Online Winner x5
A satellite dish, useful for playing online multiplayer in outer space!

Online Winner x10
A cool British Racing Green racing helmet!

Online Winner x25
A neat top hat!

Online Winner x50
It's an internet cable but fast.

Online Winner x100
An orange traffic cone with a racing flag sticking out the top! This hat is positively huge and you will no doubt stand out in online lobbies!

Online Winner x1337
Hey, I didn't say getting 100% was going to be easy. In any case, I believe in you!

These cosmetics can only be unlocked by achieving these achievements, so ya'll best be ready to start achieving when the online update hits! 😋

That's all from me for now!

Next time you'll hear from me I'll hopefully be announcing the Zeepkist Online launch!!
