PROJEKT GODHAND News

[p][/p][p][/p][p]This update comes with a new pack, "NOISZ CONNECT"! If you have NOISZ on Steam, you'll find that you'll already have this pack for free, so don't buy it separately! (It's available as a separate purchase for players who aren't about that bullet hell life... but try out the demo just to be sure?)[/p][p][/p][p]We've also added some new enemies to punch for a little extra variety![/p][p][/p][p]There's a bit fewer front-facing changes in this build, but we're currently working on some new QoL updates such as song sorting options, as well as a substantial UI overhaul for 0.5, which will launch at Tokyo Game Show in late September (along with new CORE APPEND content featuring another new collaboration)![/p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Yeah, we're newly announcing it, but you can play this update right now! Two new songs arrive from D-CELL GAMES' UNBEATABLE in CORE APPEND: FAMILIAR and (newly playable in both games) Proper Rhythm (MEMODEMO 271 BPM swag bootleg)!![/p][p][/p][p]We've made a couple of small UI updates to accomodate all the new crossover songs. You'll be able to see their origins directly on the songwheel now, alongside a handful of other fixes.[/p][p]
The game's 20% off right now, too, so tell your friends to demolish their keyboards too![/p][p][/p][p]And of course... Don't forget to wishlist UNBEATABLE and check out its incredibly stylish demo![/p]

As announced previously, this update adds two new songs to the CORE APPEND folder, from the mobile rhythm game Rotaeno! As with other CORE APPEND songs, this is additional free content.



You might see something rather new, so watch out...!

[p]First off: we're excited to announce our upcoming collab with Dream Engine Games' mobile rhythm game, Rotaeno! For those unfamiliar with Rotaeno, it's a unique game where you rotate your phone (or tablet, if you want to get a strange workout) to hit the notes.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Innocence Keeper and GALACTIC WARZONE will arrive as part of the CORE APPEND folder in just 2 days! As with other CORE APPEND stuff, this is free content. We've added some new spicy tech, so look forward to it![/p][p][/p][p]We also have another collaboration coming in 2 weeks which will also be a free CORE APPEND update, but it's secret for now...[/p][p][/p][p]An additional DLC pack "NOISZ Connect" will also be available at the end of the month for NOISZ's 7th anniversary! For anyone who owns NOISZ on Steam, this content is also free! We'll be making the pack available as a separate purchase if you're not about the rhythm bullet hell life (but we recommend trying out the demo just to be sure...)[/p][p][/p][p]Please do NOT purchase the pack if you already have NOISZ! It won't be added to future bundles for this reason.[/p][p][/p][p]If it looks to you like there's a surprising focus on additional content for Early Access, including DLC packs: you're right, these packs and CORE APPEND were originally intended to be released after GODHAND 1.0! But feedback about the gameplay has been extremely positive immediately on EA launch, and the most common request we've gotten is for more stuff to play, so we used the extra time that we'd set aside for potential gameplay revamps to accelerate the content schedule and give people what they want.[/p][p][/p][p]Our original release plan was for GODHAND 1.0 to have 35 songs of base content at launch, but we're currently projecting 46 songs of base content, plus 10 more in DLC packs. CORE APPEND will also continue to expand even further after the full version launch![/p][p][/p][p]Of course, we're still working on the backend, so you can expect to see additional features like sort options in the near future, too.[/p][p][/p][p]Speaking of 1.0, we're pleased to announce that the full release of the game is slated for January 2026! This comes with 10 more songs as base content which are associated with the first act of the story, "PROJEKT GODHAND paradiso".[/p][p][/p][p]This is the true beginning of PROJEKT GODHAND, whatever that means...?? Well, you'll find out soon enough...[/p]

[p][/p][p]As previously announced, PROJEKT GODHAND 0.3 comes with the release of our first DLC pack GALACTIC EXPEDITION, which features an all-star cast of featured artists, charts that will test the limits of your skill, and the brand new CoURSE CHALLENGE mode![/p][p][/p][p]Also, GALACTIC EXPEDITION is 20% off as a launch discount, so pick it up early if you can![/p][p][/p][p]The base content of the game expands further with two new CORE APPEND songs, including our first collaboration, grode (Wyvren's Remix) from vivid/stasis, and the winner of our HIT EM contest, May![/p][p][/p][p]We've also reshuffled the game's difficulty rating system after observing the play data and resulting automatic ratings--the 8000 to 9000s range has been expanded to 8000 to 10000s, forming an additional difficulty block! This should provide a more accurate picture of difficulty and help players moving up the ranks with picking out appropriate challenges.[/p][p][/p][p]Next month, content will focus on even more collab songs! We'll also do a bit of work on UI and try to improve visual accessibility for players who need it. Keep an eye out for exciting new announcements![/p]
