Void Scout launches on Steam - June 2nd

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

After countless dreaming, building, testing, and revising, Void Scout is finally launching on Steam on 06/02/25.

This is a tactical roguelike about surviving the end of everything - one universe at a time. You play Alyssa, the Nexus Being whose mind is copied into a new reality every time she dies. The mission continues. The memories persist. And the multiverse keeps falling apart.

🎯 Strategic Combat, Decisions Matter

Positioning, planning, and timing are the heart of Void Scout’s tactical gameplay. This isn’t about min-maxing - it’s about outsmarting enemies across procedurally shifting battlefields. Each time you play a mission will give a different challenge.

🌌 A Story That Changes With You

This isn’t just randomized levels - it’s a living, procedural story. Each mission brings new dialogue, side plots. The multiverse is at stake, and no two realities are quite the same.

🧬 Roguelike Death, With Meaning

In Void Scout, death isn’t failure - it’s transition. Alyssa’s mind persists across universes, learning from each life lost. What you gain, remember, or regret follows you. You’ll die many times, but every death pushes the mission forward.

We’d love to have you with us as the multiverse collapses:

Beta Phase Engaged: The Void Beckons!

Void Scout has reached Beta content complete! All core missions, story elements, enemies, and mechanics are now in place. There's still refinement ahead, but the finish line is in sight. Here’s what’s new behind the scenes:

[h2]Expanded Active Skills[/h2]
Seven upgradeable active abilities now give more options for combat and survival, now including:
  • Flashbangs - Stun enemies and buy precious seconds.
  • Nanocharge - Instantly resets all nanotech cooldowns.
  • Rush - A desperate push to break through a swarm.
  • Flares - A sci-fi horror classic - damages enemies and provides lasting light.




[h2]Expanded Passive Skills[/h2]
Seven passive abilities help with offense, defense, and resource management, with these newly added:
  • Might - Buffs melee damage, letting you conserve ammo by fighting harder with whatever melee weapons you find - or your fists.
  • Analyst - Only increases visibility, giving little tactical advantage, but will the bonus XP gains be worth it?




[h2]Pair Skills[/h2]
Maxed-out skills can now be combined into pairs and upgraded further, allowing three active and three passive abilities all at once. Find the combination that suits your style the best, to maximize your chances of survival.

[h2]Tension Events Expanded[/h2]
The Void Director has new ways to keep you off-balance with classic sci-fi surprises - steam vents suddenly block vision, doors go into lockdown, and more.



[h2]Boss Fights Upgraded[/h2]
Boss battles are now even deadlier, featuring these new possibilities:
  • Multi-boss encounters, for when one isn’t enough
  • Teleporting enemies so stop you escaping
  • Reinforcement calls and regeneration mechanics if you let the pressure drop
  • Special attacks, attacking with surprising range or other capabilities


[h2]All 8 Missions & Story Complete[/h2]
The full campaign is now in place, pitting the Void Scout against the infected humans, mutants, Rovakar, Zepharith, all kinds of haywire combat bots
 and the Exoforms.

[h2]The Finale Is In[/h2]
The final mission and ending sequence are complete. Alyssa’s journey will reach its conclusion
 but what will her fate be?

The core game is now complete, with final polish and balancing ahead. Wishlist Void Scout on Steam and follow for updates - you won’t want to miss what’s next!

More Secrets, More Stories

Void Scouts, we’re continuing to build out the multiverse, adding more depth, mystery, and danger with every update. Here’s a look at what’s been added as development moves forward:

[h2]Side Plots: Distractions or Warnings?[/h2]
Missions will now feature dynamic side plots, ranging from strange discoveries to unsettling encounters. Some might reveal hidden dangers, while others could offer unexpected insight—or just leave you with more questions.



[h2]Personal Logs: Echoes of the Past[/h2]
We’re adding logs from former station occupants, scattered throughout missions for players to uncover. These will expand the story, offering glimpses into what happened before you arrived—if you take the time to find them.



[h2]Expanded Options: More Control[/h2]
New settings have been added, including UI scaling, screen shake toggles, key rebinding, and resolution options. We want to ensure Void Scout is as immersive and accessible as possible when it’s ready to play.



[h2]More Missions, More Story[/h2]
The main story continues to take shape, with two more missions now built, bringing the total to four. As we flesh out the world, the mysteries of the multiverse—and the threats within it—are becoming clearer.



[h2]The Void Director Has Other Plans[/h2]
The Void Director’s influence is growing, making each mission even more unpredictable. We’ve expanded dynamic tension events, adding new ways for the environment to shift against you.Stay alert—nothing in the Void stays stable for long.

Development is moving forward, and there’s still plenty more to come. Thanks for following along as we continue shaping Void Scout—we can’t wait to share more soon.
