Regulators! Let's PATCH some things!

[h2]New stuff:[/h2]
- Added support for Gamepad Trigger-buttons (can be bound to shooting)
- improved: Some wall-explosives could be hard to place
- fixed: on the Options > Input screen moving the mouse over new buttons while changing keys crashed game
- fixed: Rare crash on final Dr OozeBrain mission

[h2]Info[/h2]

First of all: Thanks for checking out Regulators! And I'm very glad most people are liking it. It's obviously not possible to create a game that is to everybody's taste! - But it's a good feeling to see people grasping what I tried to create here.

Luckily there have, so far, been very few issues - BIG thanks to the Beta testing squad on the Orangepixel Discord We had a lot of issues and problems fixed over the last few weeks prior to release, and it helped a lot obviously!

So this v1.0.1 comes with just a few tiny changes that most people wouldn't even run into, but it's good to have them fixed and end up with an ever more solid game to build future updates on ;)


Don't forget to drop a review once you played the game, it will help with Steam showing the game to more people that might actually enjoy this!

Thanks again for the support!

Regulators is RELEASED!



It's finally here: Regulators v1.0.0 is released.

Hey I'm Pascal from OrangePixel, and I'm very pleased to have you check out my new game Regulators. It's been a long road to get the game to both a releasable state but also a GOOD state, I'm really proud of how this game turned out and actually still enjoy grabbing a recruit and going into a couple of missions of stealthy sneaking around and of course unloading my gun when all the stealth goes out the window!

I hope you'll enjoy the game! If you like top-down shooters, and you enjoy some stealth/sneaking every now and then, then I'm sure you can appreciate all the features that came together to create Regulators!

Don't forget to also grab a friend and play the local Co-Op mode.. it's a joy to sneak around together!

[h2]Running into Issues?[/h2]

If you run into any problem, let me know either on the Discord, by mail (support at orangepixel.net) or try the Steam discussion boards. I'll try to stay on top of everything, but there's often a lot coming in during the first few days/weeks of launching a game - and it can sometimes be hard to track !

In any case: I always fix problems where I can in all my games, and am supporting them long-term with quality of life updates. So don't worry, IF there are problems, I'll squash them over time!

[h2]Go play[/h2]

So, go enjoy the game! Regulate that city, and let me know if/when you defeat Dr. Ooze Brain!

Final DEMO and BETA access



Grab the latest DEMO build, it's now the final pre-release demo and gives you the perfect impression of what this game will have to offer once it launches on May 21st 2025.

[h2]Beta Test[/h2]

While the DEMO is freely available to everyone who wants to check out the game, I'm also running a more closed Beta test on the Orangepixel Discord. This is to do some stress testing and find any remaining "obvious" bugs and issues before the game launches. I'm excited! :)

[h2]What's next[/h2]

The launch is now set in stone and will happen on May 21st - so I will be ironing out the final issues, prepare a nice little video Stream for the top of the Steam page, and I'll finally get this game out the door, it's been a long ride! Make sure to check out the Orangepixel YouTube channel if you want to see some of the many changes and improvements that have been made in the recent final stretch.

Can't wait for you guys to play the full game!
