Update 0.69: Engine Upgrades!!

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey guys bit of a different update this week. We have spent a lot of time the past couple of weeks going through and revamping our custom game engine that Rekindling runs on. This should reflect in a ton of subtle improvements in performance. As we reworked how the game handles sound effects as well as how it handles animations.

We have some really big plans that are just starting to materialize that are made possible by the engine upgrades we are doing. Lets just say it might be easier to manage a colony if you had friends controlling the survivors ;) check out our Discord for more info on how to get involved in this early in the coming months.

Some other fun news is we have launched a new game called Operation Zeta that also runs on our game Engine. Feel free to check it out as you can get it cheaper if you own our first game Inevitability and Rekindling. Don't worry this doesn't mean Rekindling is going to be abandoned or get less love. We have very long term plans for Rekindling getting regular updates as it has for the past year and getting out of early access with a more complete unique game.
