Major update

1.2 Update is here (required to play DLC)

DARQ - The Tower · published 5 Mar 2020, 20:59 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

1.2 Update is now out! Make sure you update the game before you play "The Tower" DLC, (which launches tomorrow).

Notes:

  • This update introduces 4 achievements. Two of them you can unlock in this update even today, as you wait for the DLC release. The other two are unlockable in the DLC (tomorrow) and their description will show up as the DLC releases.

    • Perceptive
      Trigger 3 secret encounters with the bag-headed boy. To clarify, the secret encounters required to unlock this achievement are different from those triggered automatically as you progress through the game. Some of those are well hidden.

    • Off Camera
      Solve the rotating camera puzzle (on the train level) before the camera completes the first rotation. Fair warning: this is difficult. Easily the most difficult achievement to unlock in the game.

  • PS4 controller support
    EDIT: I've received some feedback about controller detection issue. I just released a 1.2.1 patch that fixes it, but PS4 controller will need a bit more time to be implemented properly. Sorry about the inconvenience.
  • Danish language is now available from the settings menu. We're working on implementing Arabic, which should be available in the next update. If you want DARQ to be available in your language and it's missing, request it in the comments!
  • Minor bug fixes. Thank you for reporting bugs and being patient as we address all issues that come up.
  • DLC functionality - you will be able to play "The Tower" DLC as soon as it becomes available tomorrow. Make sure it's marked as "Installed" on your DLC list. Once it is, you can play the level by accessing it from the pause menu.
  • The default control scheme for keyboard has been changed to ASWD + E. The game will remember your previous choice if it wasn't ASWD + E.

"The Tower" is launching tomorrow, on Steam and GOG, expect it the morning of Pacific Time Zone. Can't wait to see you all play it!

It's not just about the Webby Awards - it's about your support over the years (some of you were following DARQ way before it launched!). I don't mean to be unnecessarily dramatic, but without you, I'd likely be homeless right now (it's just the reality of my particular situation). I had…
