  The end of Wolfdog

  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35886416/5b4d29fbd8815560e97fd7dca3d2b0aba1f9194a.png Hello Everybody. I hope you are all doing well. It has been a while since I last posted an update on Panther VR. A lot of stuff happened the last few months, including some that are not so fun. I’ve missed the community surrounding Panther VR, and it's good to finally have the time to write another update. However, this update is also one of the hardest I’ve ever written. Since it is also the one that brings some heavy news. The end of Wolfdog It may not come as a surprise that the last few years have been a hard one. The moment we started Panther, we were at a pretty stable moment. We finished our work on our previous game (Skyworld) and we had big plans for Panther VR. The future of VR looked bright and business was going well. We launched the crowdfunding campaign for Panther VR, and it was well received. We had some funding to work on the first version, and we received a lot of support from the community and people around me. But then Covid struck. It was something that somebody could expect. While I can count myself lucky as it did not affect the health of the people around me, including myself, it still took a massive hit on our production. It botched up our initial release moment and put the game in a difficult position. It was another massive blow to the game. The amazing support from our community, family and friends kept us going. I wanted to make a game that you all would love to play. So, we started a full rework with a new regeneration of headsets, software, knowledge, and funding. Things did start to get better for Panther VR. We made some big improvements to the game with some huge updates. The quality of the game improved, and it started to look more like the game we had envisioned. We fixed a lot of issues and added a lot of new content. The new progression update would finally made it a full gaming experience. With some leftover funds, we could afford some help during the earl...

  Panther VR - Dev Blog 15# [Improvements and polish]

  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35886416/bb8598d601b30183611d5564c7b91bb5a859f499.png Hi everyone, The summer is almost coming to an end, and we hope you all had a great time. After a strange couple of years, it was refreshing to have a kind of normal summer again, and we took some short time off to replenish our energy. But progress on Panther VR keeps moving on, and so it is time for a new dev blog. This time we are talking about making improvements to the game. It is fun to add new stuff (and there will be a lot in 0.1.3) but looking at what is already there is also important. We took some time during this new update to polish some content. The feeling of a game depends a lot on how things feel and work. And creating that extra layer of attention to details and feeling is essential. That is why we are talking about improvement and polish. With an upgrade to physics and interaction, Improvements to AI and guards and adding an extra layer of love to sounds, performance increases and replayability. Development and Future of Panther VR With this new dev blog we want to show you that we are still working on Panther VR despite taking a bit longer for this update. We really value your support and patience. We also believe that it is for the best to tell you more about this development process and why things are taking a bit longer. That is why I'm pulling away the curtain on this process so far and what you can expect from Panther VR in the future. We want to be fully honest with you all, and we are so grateful to have such an amazing community. You can read more about it in our special Development Update.

  Panther VR - Dev Insight [Development and Future]

  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35886416/0fd48534986e76bbcc155ca3a42f829ab549f6b7.png Hi everyone, Hope you are all doing well. Usually I’m writing a dev blog full of new content and features for the new update. But in this special blog, I want to talk about the development of Panther VR and what the future might look like. It is a post I want to write for a long time, but also one that is a bit scary. I always try to be open to others as I can be, but doing it on the internet can feel a bit vulnerable. However, with such an amazing community and people looking forward to the future of Panther, I think it is only fair to show more behind the curtain of the development of Panther VR. I think that being honest and open can only be better for the future of Panther VR. So if you want to hear more about the game itself and new content, then check out the new blog, but if you are interested in a personal but maybe long story then please read on.

I started making games as a hobby, and I had the incredible opportunity to grow it professionally. I rolled into VR by accident when it just started out, making one of the first showcase demos for the HTC VIVE in 2014 together with Vertigo Games. That demo grew to become a full VR game called Skyworld. We had some amazing fun making it, but after that we mainly became focused on work for hire. We helped out with several projects, including Arizona Sunshine, After the Fall. However, the passion to make a new game always stayed. Since I am a massive fan of stealth games like Metal Gear Solid, Dishonored and Hitman, the idea to make a Stealth game for VR grew. That is why ...

  Panther VR - Dev Blog 14# [New Weapons and Thief Scan]

  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35886416/3a988c20a11d2f0b1d8ee9b575189ab96d7e718a.png Hi everyone, Our development so far Hope you are doing okay? It has been a while since we last posted, so it is time for an another Dev blog! :D We have been working hard on the progression (0.1.3) update. It contains a lot of new stuff and content. (way more that we planned) The biggest part of the development time consist of adding new future-proof systems behind the scenes. For a while, the update was in an "under construction state", meaning that all the system will still separate and not fully playable yet. Luckily, we are finally heading into a phase where things are connecting with each other, and the final results of the progression system are slowly coming together. This mean that we are also able so show some more progress in this new dev blog. Before we dive into the new progression system (Sneak peek at the end), we will share some more information about the new weapons, and the new Thief scan (Panther Vision) system, and the new Security Consoles. We can once again add a bit more depth to Panther VR with the addition of new weapons! From a new handgun to some larger weapons, you will now be able to choose what you take with you on your mission. Take aim with the sniper, or blast your way in with the shotgun. If you don't want to shoot your way in, try out the new Thief scan. Reveal the locations of your objective and see where you found important items. Search for the new security consoles and download the locations of Security systems to give you a heads-up on the next room. It will all be explained in this new dev blog!

  Panther VR - Dev Blog 13# [Hacking and Interactions]

  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35886416/83a458e9aaa44989344508fe67577b7ee1c2c9f4.png Hi everyone, Some words before the blog. We hope you are all safe and sound. It has been some strange couple of years, and last week's events made it even stranger. Like everyone else, we are also hoping for the best and that things will return to normal as soon as possible. We are against any act of violence and we wish that everyone involved remains safe and in good health. We hope to share positivity, love, and care in any way that we can. It is a strange feeling to live our lives and continue with work as normal while events are evolving in the world. We started making games to make people feel better and happier in their lives, so it hurts to see the sadness and danger unfold in the world. We can only hope that besides doing what we can do for each other on a personal level, we can also bring some joy and happiness with our work on this game. We wish everyone the best in the world, be kind to each other and stay safe For peace
