Free Update #21 - Decorations | Available Now!

Hello Adventurers,

The 21st, Free Update for Green Hell is now available!

The entire team had so much fun while creating this update. We were constantly giving each other new ideas about what could also be added to it, that in its final form, there’s so much new stuff to play with! See them in the trailer below:

[h2]New mechanic: Painting [/h2]


Yes! Now you can paint all kinds of constructions & the newly added decorations.

After you equip yourself with Paints made from different bugs and other colorful elements, you can create your Paintbrush out of some Fiber, Rope, and a Stick. That is how you can paint your base and color your furniture! Just pick a tint from our Amazonian color collection: white, blue, red, green, or yellow, and make the jungle even more vibrant!

This mechanic will work with the newly added decorations and the items that you’ve already constructed as well! So be creative, and let your imagination go wild!

[h2]New construction: Workbench[/h2]


The Workbench definitely will be your new best friend with this update. It will enable crafting all different kinds of decorations for your base.

[h2]New constructions: Decorations[/h2]

So… much… new… stuff… to… decorate… your… base!!!

With the use of the Workbench, you will be able to craft yourself some serious furniture items which will make your home-sweet-home even more cozy! You can craft a Table, a Chair, a Bench, a Night Stand and various Paintings to set a proper mood, or even mount some Animal Trophies to show off your hunting skills to others!

As something extra, we’ve also prepared some Rope, Leaf, and Bone Decorations for those who like pretty (or creepy!) stuff.

[h2]New constructions: Armor Stand & Arrow Holder[/h2]

You’ve asked for it, and there we have it!

Thanks to these new Stands you will be able to store your Arrows securely and showcase your neatly crafted Armors on a display they deserve.

[h2]New constructions: Torch Stand & Torch Holder[/h2]


Now these are constructions, we’ve been cooking for a long time. They’ve been sitting in our backlog for years now, but now we’ve got the right tools to complete them and make them shine!

You can place the Torch Holders inside your base to set a proper mood at night, and use the Torch Stands at strategic points on the map to easily direct you in the wilderness. Just remember - the torches won’t be burning forever and you will need to maintain them if you don’t want to be suddenly surrounded by the darkness of the night again.

[h2]New mechanic: Rearranging[/h2]


Thanks to this new mechanic, you can rearrange the decorations you’ve created and move them to another place.

Don’t like the table standing in the corner? No problem, you can just move it to the nearby window. The painting is not looking great on that wall, huh? Just move it aside, or place it along the collection of your other paintings.

StarRupture Gameplay Reveal!

Hi, everyone!

We’re very proud to show you for the very first time real gameplay from our upcoming FPP base-builder StarRupture!

In the trailer, you’re gonna see an early glimpse of some of the combat and defense mechanics. You will also see the scale of some of the dangers you will encounter in StarRupture - such as the deadly waves of monster enemies, and most importantly - the Ruptura Star explosion, which scorches the planet’s land with a deadly wave of fire and a blast of (maybe quite important?) meteorites.

Jump into action in the teaser below:
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]Everything you see in the video was live-captured from an early build on PC.

StarRupture has three main gameplay pillars—base-building, exploration, and combat—and this action-packed trailer, taken from an early build, gives you a look at the pulse-pounding combat you’ll face in their bid for survival.

Set in the far future, humanity has gone to the stars in search for precious resources. And the planet orbiting our namesake star, Ruptura, while being a resource-rich open world is also rife with dangers.


In the teaser clip, you see our lone explorer face off against hordes of enemies charging a custom-built base. If that isn’t enough, our exploding star is mere minutes from releasing an apocalyptic fire wave on the planet’s surface.

All of our fighter’s vitals are looking good, but we're not forgetting our roots in survival and eagle-eyed viewers will notice not only the health and armour stats for our player/character, but also the thirst, toxicity, and hunger levels, as well.


Utilizing collected resources to create ammunition to load turrets as one line of defense, the player is valiantly attempting to protect a base under a full-scale assault and there’s no time to waste.

As enemies make their way to destroy the base’s wind farm and storage buildings, a split-second decision is made to protect smelters and crafting pods from a terrifying new enemy assault on the other side of the base.

While automated drones are busy zipping around their elevated tracks to deliver resources from location to location, the enemy assault becomes all but overwhelming.
Making matters worse, our soldier looks up to see Ruptura ready to unleash its fiery blaze. With no time left to lose, the race is on to get to safety… but will he make it in time?


StarRupture sets itself in the story of man versus nature taking place in an otherworldly and breathtaking sci-fi environment where elemental cataclysms of extreme temperatures loom as a constant danger.

The player takes up the mantle of a convict exiled from the Earth to serve their sentence by mining and expanding industrial production alongside researching new technology on a seemingly hospitable new planet rife with mystery and danger. Tasked with surviving the deadly waves of elements—not to mention facing down against hostile enemy monsters in tense combat—each cycle spells destruction yet ushers in a new era of growth and rebuilding.

Played from a first-person perspective—adventuring solo or as part of an up-to-4-player group in co-op mode—players will be able to explore, adapt, mine, gather resources, and build complex machinery to survive and prosper.


Though by definition it is a base-building simulator, StarRupture is much more. The game will invite players to push beyond, to stay resilient and sharp against every assault, building and forming prior to the cycling eviscerating conditions on an otherwise beautiful planet.

For fans of builders, management, sci-fi action, and combat StarRupture will challenge all comers to utilize the technology at their fingertips and weather both the extremities and fierce enemies in order to survive and create a prosperous industrial complex.



How do you like our first capture of gameplay? We’d love to read your thoughts about it down in the comments section or on our official Discord channel.
