Update with Arachnophobia Mode, Multiplayer Fixes, and More

[h2]Hello community,[/h2][p]today another update has been released![/p][p]Player requests in focus, your feedback has been implemented with this update.[/p][p][/p][h3]Main Menu[/h3][p]Create Game: When creating a new game, an additional check has been implemented. The system now verifies whether a save file with the same name already exists in order to avoid conflicts.[/p][p]General Settings: A frequently expressed wish of many current and future players has been fulfilled. The new arachnophobia mode removes all spiders from the game, while spider webs and other environmental elements remain visible.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Multiplayer[/h3][p]Multiplayer synchronization has been improved. Even with a poor connection, incorrect visual representations should no longer occur when another player picks up an axe or another object.[/p][p][/p][h3]Loot Bag[/h3][p]Due to numerous complaints about long walking distances to the loot bag, this is no longer necessary. The loot bag now appears at the location where the character is after death.[/p][p]Players on Hard difficulty are excluded from this, they must still find their bag themselves.[/p][p]Additionally, the bag now automatically despawns after 120 minutes.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Vehicle Overhaul[/h3][p]The vehicle has been thoroughly reworked to make it fully multiplayer-compatible. It can now be used without issues in multiplayer mode.[/p][p]Handling and driving behavior have also been further improved.[/p][p]Furthermore, a new feature has been added: If you drive the vehicle into water, both the player and the vehicle are automatically reset to the vehicle’s last save point.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Multi-Deck[/h3][p]The instructions for using the multi-deck have been revised and clarified.[/p][p][/p][h3]Halloween[/h3][p]In an interim update, Halloween decorations were added.[/p][p][/p][h3]Weapons & Animals[/h3][p]Based on feedback from the community, the behavior of critical hits has been reworked. Critical hits now deal more damage, meaning animals require fewer hits and combat feels more balanced overall.[/p][p][/p][h3]Environment[/h3][p]The game world has also received a visual overhaul. In several places, visual adjustments and improvements have been made to make the environment feel more cohesive overall.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]General Fixes[/h3][p]Various smaller bugs have been fixed to improve the gameplay experience and stability.[/p][p]If you have any questions or feedback, let me know! Thank you for your support and have fun with the game![/p][h3][/h3][hr][/hr][p][/p][p]In Discord you have the possibility to follow the development and ask questions. https://discord.gg/8zyKXj9SDr [/p]

Development, expectations and future price changes

Hello Community,
[p]As always, I want to communicate openly and honestly with you and give you a small update on the development of KeepUp Survival.[/p][p][/p][h3]Continuous Development[/h3][p]KeepUp Survival is constantly being improved and expanded by me as a solo developer. I work on it every day, adding new content, enhancements, and ideas for the future. [/p][p]Over the past months, KeepUp Survival has grown enormously:[/p]
  • [p]New content and features[/p]
  • [p]Improved performance[/p]
  • [p]Many bug fixes[/p]
  • [p]Balancing adjustments[/p]
  • [p]Community requests implemented[/p]
  • [p]And there are still regular updates![/p]
[p][/p][h3]About Expectations & Comparisons[/h3][p]KeepUp Survival is often compared to big survival games. On one hand, that is a huge compliment, thank you very much for that! At the same time, such comparisons sometimes lead to false expectations.[/p][p]I understand that, because from the outside you often don’t see whether there is a large studio or just a single person behind a game.[/p][p]That’s why I just wanted to let you know:[/p][p]KeepUp Survival is developed completely by me alone, step by step, and I work on it every day to continue improving it.[/p][p][/p][h3]New Sense of Value[/h3][p]KeepUp Survival has grown significantly over time and continues to be actively developed and expanded by me as a solo developer.[/p][p]Some time ago, I asked the community (e.g., on Discord) for your opinion on the price. At that time, many of you found $14.99 to be fair, and since then KeepUp Survival has grown even more.[/p][p]Since the market is constantly changing and many survival and indie games are now in a similar or even significantly higher price range, I will adjust the price to $14.99 in the near future so that KeepUp Survival is also realistically and fairly positioned in terms of price.[/p][p][/p][p]IMPORTANT for everyone who wants to buy the game:[/p][p]Before the price is increased, there will be another fair discount,
so that everyone who has had their eye on the game for a while can get it cheaper beforehand.[/p][p][/p][h3]Thanks to the Community[/h3][p]Your feedback, your support, and your patience mean incredibly much to me. I read as many messages as possible and try to implement your wishes in the best possible way. Without you, this project would not be where it is today.[/p][p]The journey is far from over, there is much more to come![/p][p]Thank you for your trust and your support! ❤️[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][p]In Discord you have the possibility to follow the development and ask questions. https://discord.gg/8zyKXj9SDr [/p]
