  Fractal Abyss Update!

  Hello players! Finally, I've finished with random levels feature. There is one new map available after the update called "Fractal Abyss". This map has following features:It comes in 3 sizes - small, medium and bigThis map consist of random rooms wielded togetherGenerators spawn randomly within rooms and look different compared to other mapsMinimap shows staircases for better orientationI've also introduced some optimization tweaks in the patch. Honestly, I'm not sure what I want to do next, as the game didn't meet certain sales goals and people don't write much what they like and not like within the community hub, so I'm at the crossroads.If you have any suggestions or feedback, please feel free to post it to the community hub!

  Difficulty Tuning Continued

  I see that there're still some confusing moments and bugs in the game, so I've tried to fix that. 1. Monster can now only interact with objects that are in the same room as the monster. (Except the practice room, because it's a special safe map) 2. Temperature fluctuations should be easier to spot now. 3. Hive's "many" interactions ability within hunt alarm proximity will now try to interact with at least 4 items. 4. Quantum entanglement delay to appear decreased from 120 seconds to 10 seconds. So, now you can be sure that monster was there recently, not 2 minutes ago. 5. Buffed Oxygenic "Silent Steps" corruption ability from muffling monster steps by 30% to 70% 6. Teleportation corruption ability should now correctly reset monster state if he's chasing corrupted player. 7. Valves "no-smoke" mode threshold increased x2.0, fixed some places where rotation speed was old and slow. 8. "Generators are broken" sound will not play when repaired now. 9. Fixed other minor bugs. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please feel free to post it to the community hub!

  Game Difficulty Overhaul

  Game Difficulty Overhaul So, looks like the game in current state is too hostile for new players. To address these issues I've made a massive overhaul over most aspects of the game. Patch notes: 0. New players start the game with $2000. All current players receive a $2000 bonus. 1. Oxygen valves leakage was too unfriendly for most players. Monster interactions with valves will not affect oxygen in the room anymore. Now only broken oxygen generator and rooms without oxygen by design (open space room on Solveig for example) can cause asphyxiation. Oxygen generators now have a light indicator to better see when it's off or on. 2. Head traps now have limited duration - 45 seconds. 3. Temperature repair system has been simplified. You no longer need 2 people or camera in front of the temperature monitor to fix the temperature. All temperature monitors are now replaced with a console that allows 1 player to fix it on the spot. Temperature monsters now show the evidence more often. Chance to break temperature generator on round start has been decreased from 50% to 33%. 4. Valves rotation speed is increased x2.0. 5. Biomaterials to look for Low-carbon evidence have spawn rate increased by 30%. Now you need only 2 biomaterials to check for the evidence. 6. Random items spawn rate is increased by 30%. 7. Radiation in rooms have been simplified. Before, some rooms had high radiation by default. Now, all rooms have low radiation by default. Radioactive monsters now show the evidence more frequently. 8. All generators status panel has been introduced to check them from the ship. When any generator is broken you're getting an announcement within the ship. 9. Quantum Entanglement area is doubled. Particles spawn rate is increased by 75%. 10. Stimpack now also gives you a speed boost of 15% for 5 seconds! 11. Journal hints are now shown when mouse cursor is over the button. 12. Night Vision battery capacity has been increased x2.0 to 45 seconds. 13. Quantum Lamp now works for 6 min...

  Practice Room map and difficulty fixes

  1. Flashlight power has increased x2 - game is too dark sometimes, so flashlight fix should help with it. 2. Practice Room Map - a new very easy map has been added, where you can investigate the monster and test stuff. All equipment is provided on the map. You can still die there theoretically, but you won't lose any items if you have taken any. 3. Head traps and floor traps no longer spawn on Easy difficulty on all maps
