Stygian: Outer Gods News

Greetings ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

Can you hear the whispers calling to you from beyond the veil? The incessant choir, the sweet, nerve-wracking chant of horrors to come? No? Well... You will, and soon. It will be nary a week before we let you glean details of what the Outer Gods have planned for Stygian in its Early Access period, what new madness will be unleashed on your minds!

But even before that, if the Old Ones will it, we shall release one more patch to make your journey to Kingsport and indeed, insanity, smoother. We are in the midst of testing a performance update, trying our best to bring numerous optimization improvements into the world, as well as several other enhancements; such as letting you hear more of Victoria's voice and making sure your achievement of "Burglar in Training" is being properly awarded. Alas, we do not wish to make concrete promises yet, as the cosmic, almost Unreal entities we face are formidable indeed - but rest assured we will not give up on improving your experience, whether it is in significant jumps forward or small, incremental steps.

As always, we implore you, if you see potential in our project and would like to see it grow, and even leave your mark on it and help shape its final form - come join us either in the Steam Discussions, or talk to us and your brethren players on our official Discord server. And if you have already succumbed to the Madness and are enjoying it, we hope the whispers move you to write a positive review here on Steam - we will be forever grateful.

Thank you, and we will see you on the other side, soon...

Greetings ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

We are excited to see how many of you have heard the call and rushed to the mists of Kingsport since we've launched Stygian: Outer Gods into Early Access yesterday! And we've already gleamed valuable insight from watching you play from afar as well as reading your posts and reviews and chatting with those of you who have joined our Discord server. And we have already prepared and just released a remedy for several problems plaguing your nightmares, both serious and small.

The complete list of changes can be found below, but first, we would like to assure you that besides the removal of pesky bugs and addition of new areas, monsters, plot twists and mysteries into the game, improving its performance IS among our top priorities. We are already exploring several avenues of how to achieve this and make sure that your in-game experience is as smooth as possible. Alas, such is the nature of Early Access, that we needed to see how the game performs for more different settings on different machines than what we can ever hope to test ourselves, despite our best efforts. We therefore ask for a little more patience before you pass your judgment while we finish a performance patch that we are working on.

You see, all your feedback is beneficial and helps us in our endeavor to unleash the Stygian nightmares upon the world; however, if you share what troubles you with us in the form of a negative review, even if it is well-intentioned, it both hurts the game as well as impedes our ability to ask follow-up questions and investigate the problems more dilligently. In short, it makes it more difficult for us to improve the game and rectify the bad impression it has left on you. Therefore we implore you, if you see potential in our project and would like to see it grow, and even shape the form it takes, instead of sharing your woes through a negative review, come join us either in the Steam Discussions, or talk to us and your brethren players on our official Discord server - we will be forever grateful.

And now, behold what we have prepared for you in this short span of time:

• Fix for the visual display of the injuries (pulsating icons).
  
• Fix of the disappearance of the boatman some people experienced.
  
• Fix of missing interaction after the release of the Shackled.
  
• Added "Speech" checks for quest with paintings, Bethan and the lighthouse keeper.
  
• The location of the kerosene lamp has been changed.
  
• Added visual effects for skill cards.
  
• The lockpicking check for the Safe Room door in the mines has been removed.
  
• Improved balancing of reactions and health for ghouls, making them more formidable.
  
• Added voiceover for Victoria, The Boatman and the Masked Servant.
  
• Various other minor fixes and changes.

Greetings ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

The skies have darkened, and an eerie silence blankets the land. Something stirs beneath the surface — ancient, unknowable, and beckoning. As the veil between worlds grows thin, brave souls are now called to step into the unknown. Stygian: Outer Gods emerges from the void and enters Early Access, offering a glimpse into the madness that awaits.

The story doesn't end, it has only just begun. We are glad that we safely made it up to this part, which is largely thanks to you, our beloved community. Your participation in the Open Beta and your feedback were invaluable and we can't thank you enough for it. We would love to invite every single one of you to the Stygian: Outer Gods Discord where you can not only chat with other players, but also submit your videos, share your fan-art and, of course, report any bugs or issues you might encounter.

Throughout the Early Access period, we aim to add plenty of new content, such as additional locations, characters and quests, weapons, abilities, enemy types, and boss encounters. Besides that, we are planning to record more English voiceovers, and to expand localization to include French, German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, and Simplified Chinese subtitles at full launch. If the development goes well, we might add the localizations even sooner, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

We will be monitoring the Steam forums regularly, so don't hesitate to share your thoughts here as well!

Stygian: Outer Gods also has a launch discount, that means you're able to get it with 10% off, but only if you make the purchase within the first week since today's Early Access launch.

If you want to support the game even more, there is no better way than writing a positive review, as it helps other players to see not only the game itself, but also opinions of other people.

Once again, thousands of thanks to every single one of you!

Now, let the madness begin and let's dive into the Stygian: Outer Gods worlds together!

Greetings ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

The Early Access launch of Stygian: Outer Gods is getting closer, and thus we've decided to give you all an opportunity to win a free Steam key of the game! As a bonus, we'll throw in a Steam key to Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, too!

If you invite your friends to join the server and ask them to participate as well, your chances of winning will grow even higher... assuming they're good enough friends to give you the key if they win!

Greetings ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

Our minds have been touched by the Great Old Ones, inducing our minds with a whisper of a single thought, but that single voice was soon joined by others and grew from an almost melodic chant into an overpowering torrent of a command repeated over and over and over until all that we could feel was its relentless assault on our senses – è̴̟̠̥̈́x̸̳̙̆t̶͉̞͗ę̴̬̏̌n̷̢̮̠̒̋d̸̩̪̳̄͠ ̸̣̍̾͝t̸̮͔̏̿̇h̶̢̻̱͐è̶̳͌̇ ̵͍̳̭͑O̶̦̯̐̒̚p̶̼̂̌͆e̵͔̐n̴̲̽ ̸͚̋B̴̬͔͜͠͝ė̷̛̠̖̏t̸͍̄́a̷͖̝͌̀.

In order to salvage what was left of our sanity, we had to give in, there really was no other choice. Therefore let it be known that we are extending the duration of the Open Beta until April 8, 10AM PT / 7PM CEST. If you've felt the call as well, this is your last chance to journey to Kingsport, until the Early Access launch of Stygian: Outer Gods next week, on Monday, April 14.

To start your voyage, just head to the game's Steam store page and press "Request Access", which will make the "Stygian: Outer Gods Playtest" app appear in your Steam Library, ready to install and play.



We would also like to take this opportunity to thank every single one of you for participating in the Open Beta so far, the feedback has been invaluable to us. We are already working on tweaks and changes - while these may not all be implemented directly at launch, we will prepare an update shortly after. Please, keep playing and letting us know what you think either here on Steam or on the dedicated Discord server.
