I'm a little disappointed to see you're no longer posting your updates here, and more importantly, to have no response (yet) to the concerns I've raised about Steam exclusivity.
The Steam client is (still) a health risk, and has been since 2019. When you first mentioned going to Steam for early access, I pointed this out. I've been hoping for a response, or some confirmation that the game will be available elsewhere, even if not during the early access process. I know Steam provides a lot of useful tools for a game in development, but being literally harmful to some users is kind of a deal breaker when I'm one of those people.
Thanks for reaching out! For our early access release we are focused on Steam, during early access we plan to explore support for additional platforms & consoles. We will share information as our plans become more firm, be sure to follow our socials or subscribe to our mailing list to ensure you hear any news!
Thanks! As unfortunate as it is for my personal situation, I'm aware that Steam makes a lot of things about early access easier. I'm already on your mailing list, and I'll be keeping an eye out for news as the game progresses! Hope to see you somewhere less horrible soon!
By acting as a trigger for migraines, epilepsy, and several other conditions where various forms of light can act as triggers for things. In this case, Steam is affecting a surprising number of gamers (myself among them) who have never had any software app other than Steam act as a trigger for our conditions. It's honestly pretty crazy - and so is the response from Valve (which literally includes violating privacy laws in response to being asked to fix the problem).
That's your take on this? Seriously? No. There are numerous conversations (including on the Steam forums) about the problems. Valve has known it's an issue since a few days after they caused it with an update in 2019. They've done nothing to fix the various problems, and taken multiple steps which make things worse, and behaved in actively abusive ways toward the (former) customers trying to get the problems fixed.
I wish I was a troll, that would mean I wouldn't have lost $3000 worth of games which Valve have effectively stolen from me.
I have severe epilepsy, to the point I can't enjoy 90% of shooter games as unexpected flash bangs or just overall too many random lights on screen causes issues for me.
I have never heard of, nor had any issues just because I use Steam for my games, is this a real issue? I googled like crazy for a while, and was unable to find a single report of the Steam Platform causing health issues. Financial issues, all over the place, but not even 1 person saying "I use steam and it caused a seizure"
I found 2 black doors, some kidna weird thing with 3 activators that i had to sacrfice 3 things to, and after i went to a weird door thing in a secret passage near spawn which i could have sworn that that wasnt there before, a yellow circle popped up on my minimap, but when i went there there was nothing athough there was a group of rocks to suggest that there was soemthing there or is supposed to be there, and when i got back the secret passage dissapeared??
This has come such a long ways! I think I'm realizing I just really don't like the upgrade research system though. The presentation makes it very annoying to sort through to see if I have the required resources for something, let alone compare my choices. I guess just highlighting or sorting by what you can afford would solve most of the problem.
Purely needing to grind by searching for spawns is also pretty boring tbh, I think there could be something more interesting
I might like this game if it had auto-targeting and autofire so I don't have to aim with one hand and move with the other. It's tedious for a game that's a simple, overhead shooter with so many simple enemies. This isn't a first-person shooter where I'm doing a lot of aiming.
I have once again lost ALL my progress and this time I didn't even clear my history which is how it happened last time. There needs to be something set up with servers where the progress goes cause no way in hell am I doing this shit all over again.
made an account to share this, but if you are playing on a low spec device, (i only get like 2 fps MAX) you can kind of just phase through enemies. its less effective against groups, but still funny.
died right as i got an upgrade. This caused my character to freeze on return to ship and i couldnt put away the gun which was deleted when i had to reload
I played this game before the major update last year, and it's still just as fun. I've been playing it to get me through this school year, and it's served well. It has cured my boredom, 10/10 would recommend
The bug is caused by using the Skullspike(?) grip's flee, which will enable the training dummies to fly out of existence. they seem to flee even further if they're slowed, for some reason. You can also use this to bully the Roomba even further.
As I've seen. One of my builds absolutely lagged the hell out of this laptop which led me to giving up my best run, still hasn't crashed the game though.
Theres a way to get out if you go from the right of the door and down whilst also going right. Basically just keep going down and you'll get out of it.
Does anyone know how to access the two secret areas? The one at the bottom of the map in Chaos Grove and the one in the small, mine filled area in Hive Barens.

How can software be a "health risk"?

Well, I guess I'm the fool for falling for a troll online.

Managed to beat it again, killed the boss this time and got way better stats, lowkey, 50 cal with explode and fast firerate is meta.
We need a Roomba Boss Fight for the memes
lol I can get behind this
Helix Rockets has to be the most beautiful, destructive, and laggy thing I have ever seen
Four words:
Explosive Helix Barrel Shotgun
Three words:
Helix Barrel Shotgun
I found 2 black doors, some kidna weird thing with 3 activators that i had to sacrfice 3 things to, and after i went to a weird door thing in a secret passage near spawn which i could have sworn that that wasnt there before, a yellow circle popped up on my minimap, but when i went there there was nothing athough there was a group of rocks to suggest that there was soemthing there or is supposed to be there, and when i got back the secret passage dissapeared??
hmm
erm what the sigma is up with the secrets?!?!?!?
Great game, I finally beat it, sort of, and cant wait for the whole game to realese!

How does one complete a run?
Survive for 30 minutes or kill the final boss that spawns around 25 minutes.
I might like this game if it had auto-targeting and autofire so I don't have to aim with one hand and move with the other. It's tedious for a game that's a simple, overhead shooter with so many simple enemies. This isn't a first-person shooter where I'm doing a lot of aiming.
Check the options menu, there is auto-aim & auto-fire!
It does have auto fire and auto aim you just have to go to settings
Thanks guys! I will check that out. It would make an enormous difference!
Found the settings! This should do nicely!
I have unlocked the homing thingy, but how do I actually get it onto my gun, like what upgrades do I need to use it??
Could so mighty a hunter be also so foolish?
Well. I can!
:) first run compleated
i gain one upgrade at level one and my ammo storage becomes 74
This isn't even my best run
died cause game lagged so hard with me shooting 41 bullets in a ring shape that exploded and left napalm
i had these splitting piercing homing missiles
ohh i see what you mean (my bullets didnt shoot napalm but the sub-bullets from splitting stock got spawnkilled and immediately exploded)
can you guys please make the apples and medkits heal more they barely do anything and make the jumping jelly enemies outrunable
I believe there are certain upgrades that raise the level of heals
I have once again lost ALL my progress and this time I didn't even clear my history which is how it happened last time. There needs to be something set up with servers where the progress goes cause no way in hell am I doing this shit all over again.
I'm just getting a white screen... reset my browser multiple times.
me too
Cant find the sniper rifle where is it
You have to beat the final boss without missing a bunch of shots. Just pick the hellfire barrel and light weight grip. 100% accuracy.
Or you could put on auto aim + auto fire and survive for 30 mins
That's what I do. I play with track pad.
funneh gun
I'm about an hour in and I already found an infinite money glitch
I have played this ever since I have played on ITCH.IO, and it is G.O.A.T! when is the next update?

what?

Are you supposed to be able to get a mission complete without killing the boss, or is this a bug?
Happened to me as well I guess just run around for 30 minutes
There should be an export/import feature so saves can be loaded on different PCs.
What build can I use to absolutely push my school computer to the pure limit?
duplicated fast shooting rocket launcher.
This will do nicely. Hopefully it's enough to make the game unplayable on my end.
Rocket Launcher + Fragment + Helix + Napalm Jet is really rough on my system. Bonus points if you put that onto the drone and pile on...
Oh, if you pick Swarm missile instead of rocket launcher is just insane...
As I've seen. One of my builds absolutely lagged the hell out of this laptop which led me to giving up my best run, still hasn't crashed the game though.
Unplayable
It's so worth it though.
When is the content from the last 3 blogs released?
Is the stuff from the Steam Next Fest Trailer WIP or released?
8:05 1437 enemies killed
where are the new updates?
September 12, 2024.
the game doesnt save ): if i reload tab it resets me pls make it save or fix
How do I get back here???
I cannot seem to find it!
You go down and to the right, if you need to look at the map, press the ESC key
Down where?
Theres a way to get out if you go from the right of the door and down whilst also going right. Basically just keep going down and you'll get out of it.
Can you also make a video of you doing it?
I think the one in the photo is the one at the top, not the one in the middle if ur talking about the middle of the map door
why are the augments that i researched not showing up in game. is this hapening to any other people?
They are upgrades to existing augments, such as the Devastator Mag being an upgrade to the Exploding and Incendiary Mag.
... my guns got .... stuck... :(
they just... clipped out of bounds...
Does anyone know how to access the two secret areas? The one at the bottom of the map in Chaos Grove and the one in the small, mine filled area in Hive Barens.
