Fury Unleashed News

Hello Heroes!

We have quite a piece for you today. But before we begin, please meet your new companion – Mr. Doodle. Starting today, he will assist you as a guide through the world of Fury Unleashed.



Mr. Doodle will tell you the entire enigmatic story that fills the pages of our comic book. He will be providing narration, leading you through all the blood-curdling battles and struggles. Don’t get us wrong, he won’t help you dispatch any monsters on the way – absolutely not. He just does the talking.

Our pal will introduce you to the stories in the three available comics, and when it’s time to leave Early Access, each story will come to an end with the addition of Epilogue World, which takes place in the sketchbook. Believe us when we tell you: it’s worth the wait!

As usual, we have even more for you today. We really enjoy treating you to new functionalities and seeing you all having fun learning new possibilities and discovering how to beat completely fresh obstacles and opponents. So how about adding a bunch once again?

Here are the details:

• The new NPC – The Order of Eternal Ink, where you can get a blessing for a small fee;
  
• New traps that occur at dark stages;
  
• The possibility to further adjust the Easy difficulty level during the game through an option in the pause menu;
  
• Improved sounds related to your activity in the game (shots, melee attacks, jumps, etc.);
  
• And as usual, bug fixes and performance optimizations.

That’s it for today, Heroes. Thanks for stopping by. If you like what you see, consider following us on our social media (Discord channel, Facebook, and Twitter!) to make sure you’re always up to date with all that we have in store.

Farewell!

Hi everyone!

It's been over a month since the previous update – you've probably collected enough ink to print the entire LOTR novel series ... or an encyclopedia.

Oh, speaking of encyclopedias, we wanted to let you know that we’ve added one to our game! So far it contains only bosses, minibosses and enemies you’ve already encountered in the game, but the following update will also include items that you have stumbled upon. From now on, you will know everything about the world of Fury Unleashed and not miss anything. It's good to have things under control, right? Except the fury, of course!

But you know how it is – the tide of fury never does just one thing at a time. So of course we have more than just this one new addition in store for you today.

What’s new then? Let’s get down to business:

• New soundtrack composed by the duo Skorupa and Wierzynkiewicz that will make your time spent digging into the main menu more enjoyable. There's also a new track that will be played in-game when you score a furious combo.
• New NPC – Gunlord, who will allow you to unlock new initial weapons.
• Three brand new (we would say shiny, but not really) enemies for the first comic.
• Modified customization panel and new alternative hero heads.
• Various minor improvements and bug fixes.

We hope you’re enjoying our game – these new additions will make it even better than before. If you like how the game is developing, please consider consider nominating it for The Steam Awards in one of the available categories:



As always, feel free to leave us feedback on our Discord channel; we check it regularly and it's a great way to motivate the team and give us interesting new ideas to further improve Fury Unleashed! We also have Facebook and Twitter where you can follow us to stay up to date on the current state of development.

Thanks!

Remember us promising that after Gamescom and some initial testing we’d make co-op available sometime in fall? Well, we’re happy to announce that the time is now, and local co-op mode has just been added to our game! So what are you waiting for? Download the update, call your fam, grab some snacks and drinks, find a couch to chill on, and show your enemies that you and your friend are an unstoppable duo!

What? Still reading? Hoping we have something else up our sleeves? Well, seems you know us all too well. You’re right, co-op mode isn’t the only add-on in this update. Here’s a list of other changes you can expect:

• Secret locations to be discovered in random places in the game world
  
• Special golden ink you can get by killing enemies or being a Destructive Fury on a level. You can spend the ink on additional equipment to help you to progress through the game
  
• Elite enemies – not as strong as bosses, but more demanding than regular opponents – adding additional challenges to your playthrough
  
• New NPCs you can meet and interact with on your way through the comic books
  
• New tunes for the third comic book composed by Adam Skorupa and Krzysztof Wierzynkiewicz
  
• As usual, some minor bugs were killed and some fixes were implemented
  

To play Fury Unleashed in co-op mode online using Parsec streaming, just follow the instructions included in the step-by-step guide prepared we’ve made just for you:
Fury Unleashed Parsec co-op guide

There, now you can stop reading and start playing. And once you’re done (for today of course), don’t forget to share your feedback via our Discord channel, Facebook, and Twitter!

Your feedback is really important to us – especially because we’re getting closer to our final release date with every day (early 2019, remember?), so every comment helping us making the game even better is priceless.
Keep on gaming!

We don’t often post updates here, but when we do, we make sure they are worth your time. And today you’ll need quite a lot of it to dig in and go through all we’ve prepared for you. First things first, however, let’s start with the most important piece of news for today, meaning the release date and the game’s title change. Yup, you’ve got that right. The Badass Hero is no more. Please meet Fury Unleashed, that will come to your PCs, PS4s, Xbox Ones, and Nintendo Switches in early 2019!

Now trust us when we tell you that changing the game’s title after we’ve already made it available in Steam Early Access was not an easy decision to make. Nevertheless, it had to be made after we heard many times that it’s causing unnecessary controversy and is a turn off for people who otherwise might have been interested in it. Furthermore, after months of development The Badass Hero’s art style changed so massively, that reflecting that change with a new name was a good idea to disconnect it from the first screenshots and trailers that were released in 2016. Last, but not least, we’ve experienced significant difficulties promoting the game due to some social media’s profanity filters. However, one thing that hasn't changed is the skill-based, action-packed gameplay with a combo system that will reward you for playing like a badass.

Okay, okay, the title changed, noted, what about the local co-op feature? When will it become available? We’ll be running some tests during this year’s Gamescom, and if all goes well, we should be able to let you experience some epic boss fights hand in hand with your best buddy sometime around fall this year. Keep an eye out for a more precise date that we’ll be posting in the next updates here!

Still starving for more good news? Great! How about we tell you that we haven’t really shown you all that awaits you in our game? And that there will be some secret rooms to discover along your heroic adventure? Check out our newest trailer for a sneak-peak of what’s to come. Just remember to watch it till the end. Good things happen to people, who don’t skip credits.

Finally, the cherry on our cake, especially for you music freaks out there. The new set of soundtracks for the second comic book from the Skorupa–Wierzynkiewicz duo is here. Check it out (right after you check out the trailer) and let us know what you think about both. Our Discord, Facebook, and Twitter are all open and waiting for your feedback!

You asked for it, we promised to deliver, and here it is! From now on you can play not only as a badass looking male character but also a female one. And trust us when we tell you, the girls in our game are equally as capable of kicking alien butts as the guys. If not more. It took them a while to join the fight, so now they are all pumped, ready, and impatient for some serious action. Don’t take our word for it though, look at the ladies below and you’ll discover that “fight like a girl” just got a whole new meaning.



But it’s not the only good news we have for you today! Fighting bad guys is fun but doing so while listening to an awesome music score is a real treat. Especially if the composers behind the tune are no other than Adam Skorupa and Krzysztof Wierzynkiewicz themselves! Does The Witcher soundtrack ring a bell? Shadow Warrior 2 maybe? Bulletstorm? Yep, that’s those guys, and we’re thrilled to have them working on The Badass Hero track. For now, you can listen to their music in the first comic book but don’t worry, more is coming.

We've also made several balance changes, including much requested built-in Fast Travel and Combo Shields (especially important in New Game+ modes), as well as significant optimization improvements and regular bug fixes.

And as always, we want to know your thoughts on the latest changes, so don’t be shy, and share your feedback either via our Discord channel, Facebook, or Twitter!
