[h4]Hello, Everyone![/h4]

In this devlog, we’re excited to introduce the latest updates on the co-op mode and cosmic phenomena that many of you have been eagerly anticipating.

If you want to receive the latest updates on SAVE as quickly as possible, be sure to join our Discord community! We’ll be sharing regular updates there, so don’t forget to follow and wishlist the game as well!

Now, let’s take a look at the newly added content!

[h3]Co-op mode🙌[/h3]

SAVE’s real-time co-op mode supports 1–4 players, allowing you to communicate and strategically carry out operations with your team. We’ve dedicated a lot of time and effort to ensuring that you and your teammates can work together to overcome the cosmic phenomena and threats aboard the SENARA.

As part of this update, we’ve added a voice chat system and a Base Camp where players can prepare for missions and plan their strategies. These features will enhance teamwork, immerse you in cooperative gameplay, and help you tackle challenging missions together.

[h3]Voice Chat System🔊[/h3]

A crucial element of co-op gameplay, the voice chat system, has now been integrated into SAVE. This system enhances strategic communication, ensuring that players stay immersed from mission preparation to execution.

By enabling voice chat in the settings, players can choose between two communication methods:

● Proximity Voice Chat 📢
Players must be close to hear each other, creating a realistic and immersive communication experience.

● Walkie Talkie Voice Chat📡
Players can purchase a Walkie Talkie from the equipment shop, allowing them to communicate regardless of distance. This ensures that important information can be shared quickly and enables more strategic cooperation.

[h3]Base Camp🚢[/h3]
Introducing Base Camp, your mission preparation and strategy hub!

At Base Camp, you can access key facilities such as the Operation Board, Equipment Shop, and Rubber Boat, all of which are crucial for planning and executing missions. This space also serves as an important part of USTC’s lore and narrative, enhancing your immersion in the world of SAVE.


[h3]Equipment Shop🛒[/h3]

Purchase weapons, armor, and other gear provided by Miskatonic University to ensure a well-prepared strategy.

[h3]Operations Board📋 [/h3]

The room has displays that show the mission progress and objectives, helping teams plan their approach effectively.

[h3]Rubber Boat🚤[/h3]

A staging area for final preparations before deployment, allowing players to gear up before infiltrating the ship.
[h3]Cosmic Phenomena [/h3]

Cosmic phenomena are a core element of Lovecraftian horror, bringing eerie, unexplainable occurrences and existential threats to the SENARA. These events create an immersive and tense atmosphere, keeping players on edge throughout their journey.

Throughout the ship, mysterious cosmic disturbances will occur, and encountering them can lead to sanity loss, health depletion, and other dangers. Each phenomenon has its own unique patterns and countermeasures, requiring players to analyze and respond strategically.

These eerie encounters will keep you in a constant state of tension, making your exploration even more intense.



In this devlog, we introduced cosmic phenomena and the long-awaited co-op mode. We’ll continue to share more content and development updates in the future, so stay tuned for the next devlog!

If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to reach out via our Discord channel. Your valuable input is always a great source of motivation for us.

Thank you! 😊

Hello Everyone

We are currently working on recreating the unexpected supernatural phenomena and potential threats lurking aboard the SENARA. In this development log, we’d like to share the progress on new levels and the Sanity System.

If you want to be the first to receive the latest updates on SAVE, make sure to join our Discord community! We’ll be sharing updates regularly, so don’t forget to follow and wishlist the game as well!

Now, let’s take a look at the newly added content!

[h3]🚢 New Levels on the SENARA[/h3]

The newly added levels are designed to let you explore the background and hidden stories of the SENARA. As you navigate through these environments, you will uncover the ship’s true nature and immerse yourself in its eerie narrative.

These spaces serve as a medium to convey the narrative elements of SAVE, allowing you to slowly unravel the secrets of the SENARA through exploration. Now, let’s introduce the new levels.

[h4]⛪ Elder Chapel[/h4]

A secret worship room accessible only to the elders and the cult leader of the SENARA Gospel Mission.

[h4]🙏 Grand Hall[/h4]

The largest gathering space for the church’s followers. Here, members of the congregation come together to pray, eat, and listen to the cult leader’s sermons.

[h4]🪔 Confession Room[/h4]

A room where sinners are taken to repent and receive punishment for their transgressions.

[h3]😬Sanity System[/h3]

Sanity is a key element in portraying the essence of Lovecraftian horror. In SAVE, it plays a crucial role in intensifying the supernatural threats and eerie phenomena lurking aboard the SENARA.

The Sanity System in SAVE causes a gradual loss of sanity when encountering hostile entities or supernatural occurrences aboard the ship. As sanity decreases, both visual and auditory distortions will intensify, making the horror feel not only external but also deeply psychological.

We hope this system enhances the immersive experience, making every moment on the ship more intense and unsettling.


In this Devlog, we introduced the newly developed levels, and the Sanity System, a core element of Lovecraftian horror.

We’ll continue bringing you more content and development updates, so please look forward to the next Dev Log!
