Dev Update - Demo



Hi there!

Wow, time fly's and a lot has been happening. I'll cut to the chase, the Demo has been updated with the new deferred lighting and a cheeky new additional 'bit' that's been needed for Chapter 5. As always please let me know if there are any problems. You will need a graphics card that supports the new rendering pipeline but anything that's say 5 years old [sic] or so should be fine. (see last update post for more information about the new lighting)

Other updates in the demo have been the addition of the journal log viewer. This collects the terminal stories that you discover and saves them - persistently - in one place for you to read. This will be fleshed out eventually.

The UI canvas scale has been tweaked so it should scale correctly with different screen resolutions (in game) Also Flares have been added! I've dialed down the ambient light your suite casts to make it all a little more moody.

In other news as a family we welcomed a new addition so as you can imagine that's been taking up a little bit of time and adjusting body clocks to new routines.

Hope to have a launch date of the full game very soon, hopefully in the next update post. Stay posted!
