Quick update!!!


Hi all! I appreciate the response a ton! The reception has been nothing short of wonderful! I just wanted to address a couple of things that, upon, reflection, might not have been as clear as I thought they were.

Your flashlight can run out of battery. I felt keeping this mechanic from the original 8 pages was vital to giving the game a sense of urgency. I was very against the idea of adding a meter for this, I wanted to make it obvious in-game that your battery was running out. I think people misinterpret the flickering as the Operator doing that, but it's the battery reaching a certain threshold. Once you see the flickering, you're halfway out of battery. In a future update I'll try to make this more obvious.

All of the pages are at landmarks, much like the original. One landmark is very much not as obviously a landmark as the others though, the burned forest next to the tunnel is another page location, but I noticed from watching people play post-release that the burned forest being anything isn't as obvious to others. I'll be adding more stuff to that area to make it more obviously a landmark.

However, I will not be adding any more hints to where the pages are, part of the fun is discovery! You're not supposed to beat the game on the first try, it's going to take a couple.

I will try to roll out these updates ASAP, but I have a lot of personal things going on right now so I'm not sure how long it will take.

Thank you all for the support!!!!! <3

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Just a Pico sprite

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.
