This week's update overhauls how ammo is provided to weapons on your Granvir. Instead of each weapon having its own ammo container, Granvirs now have a new two slot inventory called the munitions feed that all weapons will pull from when firing. The munitions feed can be expanded with certain torsos, certain tracks, a new series of back modules and a new series of special modules. The primary g…
This week's update brings terrain deformation to all campaigns and a handful of adjustments to fully support it. Most importantly, the default setting for Fog of War has been changed to off. Thanks to the hills created by terrain deformation, fog of war is no longer required to limit sight lines and engagement sizes. Weapons accuracy has also been changed to be mostly dependent on Granvir-wide…
This week's update introduces terrain deformation to the Zero Front campaign through new custom difficulty settings. Terrain deformation generates a random height map for each mission. A complementary map size setting has also been added so the deformation has more space to generate fun features to play around. The next few updates will focus on adding terrain deformation support to all campaig…

This week's update adds a batch of 12 back modules across all 4 tiers aiming to round out back part options beyond weaponry. The Meteor Boosters provide high speed forward mobility, the Cooling Fins provide a simple cooling boost and the Guardians provide a full coverage defensive barrier. The boosters should be a helpful tool in completing a melee focused build using ports that previously coul…
This week's update makes a major overhaul to the functionality of reactors and cooling costs. The goal of the rework is to give some extra survivability to melee focused and simple ranged builds through a small cooling boost while reduce the survivability of heavily equipped ranged builds through a small cooling penalty. A new reactor load stat has been added to most ranged weapons that reduces…
This week's update overhauls the kick functionality built into most legs. Kicks still aren't a melee weapon to stand on their own but they deal much more damage and will knock back both the user and the target. Kicks still benefit from other melee weapon boosts so the right legs and the right support like grapples can elevate kicks into a strong damage dealing options. Jumping has also been adj…
This week's update is coming a little early to accommodate my schedule and it majorly overhauls how legs move. All legs are now capable of sliding when they exceed their top speed. While sliding, control is greatly diminished until your Granvir slows down below its top speed. You can extend the slide by moving into it or cut it much shorter by countering the slide direction. Sliding happens mos…

This week's update introduces a new mobility type with hybrid hover legs. Hover legs can swap between regular movement and hover movement allowing them to reach higher speeds at the loss of control. Hover movement is generally more mobile but has far less control over momentum. Taking hits and firing weapons will push your Granvir while hovering, hampering a gap close or allowing for a rapid ad…
This week's update focuses on a major rework of how the game handles high firerate weapons. The old system had slight variation based on framerate and caused the balancing tools that calculated the expected firerate to over-estimate and suggest lower DPS value the high the firerate was. The new system allows many weapons to reach their intended firerate and should amount to an up to 30% DPS boo…
This week's update introduces 2 new enemy types to add some extra enemy variety. Each new enemies has variants to appear across all escalation levels.

You can look forward to a weirder update next week.We're hard at work on campaign 4, I will be looking to release a preview version of the campaign featuring its core mechanics that you can check out in…
This week's update adds a set of throwable one-handed axes. The axes deal massive damage when thrown but unlike the rocket powered Comet you'll need to pick them up yourself.

Thrown weapons will inherit you speed allowing you to throw them further with a well timed dash and they'll also benefit from all the sa…

Low tier radar modules have also been added to many of the starting loadouts with torsos capable of installing them to give first person focused players an option…
This week's update adds an all new way to play Granvir with the new first person mode. The core intention of first person mode is to help players aim ranged weapons more accurately but there's nothing I can do to stop you from playing an entire campaign with only melee weapons entirely in first person mode. If you enjoy first person mode, let me know so I can continue to improve it. Please keep…
This update adds a commonly requested melee weapon along with a wave of QoL features. The new laser blade is a large T4 one-handed weapon whose laser blade can uniquely be turned off and on to control the cooling cost and speed boost from an empty hand. A new repair cost mechanic has also been added for arms, legs and torsos to help ease the cost of supporting a durability oriented build. Certa…
