Dev Diary Update

Hello all! Welcome to today's dev diary. Beta status? yes! New enemies? yes! Here we go!

I'm happy to announce our next major update is weeks away. We're doing final touches to the feature set, then will release it as a Beta, and then a stable build. You know we've spent a good amount of time fixing many core game systems, so we hope all the hard work will be worth it!

To make the wait easier, today we're gonna update you on the last enemies to enter production. We've got cool videos from 2 of them, so we hope you like them!

First we have the RhinoSnail. This is another deformity you'll encounter on Wasteland7A. He's got a pretty large life pool, and so he's quite tough to beat. Combine that with charging attacks, and you're in for a nasty treat, especially of you're a melee player. Here's a short clip of this new creature in action:

Second, we have the RazorSnake. This slitherine creature was crafted by Helldörren to defend his living quarters. Fast and sneaky, RazorSnakes detect visitors with their electro-bionic eyes, and stalk them from the dark. Here we show you some animations from this new monstrosity:

And here's an attack sequence:

Of course, remember each of these guys is going to appear in different generations, with unique behaviours and stats.

So for example on the next update you'll get 4 types of each of our "classic" enemies, plus these new enemies, in 2 generations each. The new enemies all go into the veteran section of the game, with different skin patterns. Check some of them out below:



I'm happy to inform you that all our new quest system is in place now. This is on top of the contracts, so you get additional goals to fulfill and rewards to unlock.

So as you can see, basically we're 90% done with the update, we hope to be able to announce the Beta date soon. If all goes well, next week. Please bear with us, one final push and we'll be able to enjoy all the new game features together.

See you in the Outer Reach!
