Development update - Spring 2024

Hello everyone!

It's been a few months since the last update, so I wanted to let you all know what's been happening since.

Episode 2 is almost complete, and episode 3 is coming along, but yet again, I'm afraid we underestimated the time it would take to finish, test, and polish everything. As such, we'll have to once again push the release date, which should now be around Autumn 2024. Big apologies to everyone.

With that said, rest assured that we're still working away on the game, and episode 2 will be especially big, detailed, and excitingly fun. Trust us, it's worth the wait!



Again, thank you for your continued support, and stay awesome!

Happy holidays!

Hello everyone!

First of all, I'd like to wish a happy holidays season to all of our fans! 2023 has been a rough and eventful year, but we made it through, and we should all be proud of what we accomplished. May 2024 be even more awesome!

With that said, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my promise to release episode 2 by the end of this year. Life got in the way (again), and I've had to deal with a few health issues lately, so things have slowed down a bit. So I can't say whether we'll release episode 2 soon, or if we'll just wait until the full game is ready, but things are still happening, just not as fast as I had anticipated.

In the mean time, here's a reminder that the game will be on sale 25% off until January 4th! And if you want to support us further, please consider writing a review, it helps more than you might imagine :)

As always, thank you for your support, and stay awesome!

Getting ready for 1.0 !!

It's been a while since the game has been updated, but fret not! Behind the scene, we're getting ready to release the full version, which should happen, if everything goes well, in May 2024 !!

We're building levels in a semi-random order, so updates will be scarce, but you can expect episode 2 to be finished and available fully by the end of the year.

Also, a new video has been added to the store page, as seen during the Realms Deep 2023 event.

As always, thank you all for your continued support, and stay awesome!

Update 0.11.0 and exciting news!

A new update has just been released (0.11.0)!

This update brings a few bug fixes as follows;

  • Weapons don't collide with the wall behind the player when spawning anymore
  • The characters won't clip through walls at high speed
  • New character physics, both for player and enemies
  • Boss rooms are now locked when entering them, to prevent cheesing in a doorway


In addition to these fixes, the following features have been added;

  • Implemented a sector based lighting system
  • E2M2 is now playable!


And now for the main announcement;

In the last update, I mentioned that we would be having a new level designer on the team. While Viscerafest's developer, Noah Dickinson, was kind enough to offer his help, in the mean time, a lot has happened, and plans have had to change.

From now on, Extraneum will be teaming up with, and published under Hellforge Studios, the indie game publisher behind amazing titles such as Age of Hell, Selaco, Disdain, and many more!

With their help, it's my hope that Extraneum will finally be able to end up looking and playing the way it was meant to be!

Also, if you want to listen to the Extraneum soundtrack composed by Ben Sua, we made it available for free on Youtube, and you can check it out at the following link; https://www.youtube.com/@hearmetxt/playlists

As always, thank you so much for your support, and stay awesome! :)
