Hive Blight joins Steam Next Fest! - Map Rework Update
[p]Hey everyone![/p][p][/p][h3]Big news first - Steam Next Fest starts today, and Hive Blight is part of it!
[/h3][p]If you want to help us gain visibility, the best thing you can do is play the demo, tell your friends, stream, make videos, or just spread the word in whatever way you can. It really makes a difference for us, thank you! [/p][p][/p][p]![]()
[/p][p][/p][p]Also, during the Fest, you’ll be able to watch a beautifully awkward replay of me (Kobal) trying to explain the game while stuttering my way through it 😅 [/p][p]Not exactly pro streamer material, but hey, it’s honest work. Hope you still enjoy it![/p][p][/p][p]![]()
[/p][p]Now let’s talk update. We’ve been reworking the map, both visually and in terms of game design. It now offers more varied paths and choices, and should feel way more interesting across runs. It’s still a work in progress, we plan to add new node types and continue improving variety, but it’s already in a much better place, and we wanted you to try it out right away.[/p][p][/p][p]![]()
[/p][p][/p][p]We also took the ooportunity to add our native language, French, to the game! This should rejoice those who speak the "langue de l'amour". [/p][p]Please give it a try if you're a fellow french speaker because, as most people, we are very bad at not making mistakes in our own language....[/p][p][/p][p]After this, our next focus will be adding more variety with enemies and nodes, to keep the experience fresh and strategic.[/p][p][/p][p]Hope you enjoy the update! As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts — feel free to share your feedback here or on Discord ![/p][p][/p][p]Enjoy![/p][p][/p][h2]Update Content[/h2][p][/p][h3]Quality of Life:[/h3]
