First of all: We haven’t forgotten about you and about our beloved SO BELOW. We are currently very busy with our new game: Kayak with Friends. We know, it’s a whole different kind of game, but with it new doors are open to us and we are really excited about what’s coming to us as a studio. Please if you are so kind, give us a Wishlist on our steam page: Kayak with Friends Steam page
Now, we are still working on new entities and a massive new map (a little teaser for you: it’s called the Yamaoka Institute) which will be part of the final release version of SO BELOW. In the meantime, we decided to give you all a mid-year update with new systems that improve the overall experience of the game.
Come meet Tequila, our most loyal hunter. She’s the most perfect dog ever, and as such you must feed her and pet her. Don’t interrupt her beauty sleep! (+20 hrs a day).
Now every lore book, every symbol, every finding is automatically registered in the findings terminal. You will be able to see and study all of your findings, and maybe piece together the mysterious nature of your job. You can also change the music while using the findings terminal.
Inspired by the dread of going to work every day, we made a gloomy introduction to the hunts that highlights player levels and hunt details. With this update, hunters will be able to compare their level and have a preview of what comes next for the hunt.
Lamps and items used to clip through walls and doors, so we implemented a system to avoid clipping and increase immersion.
Now CCTV cameras can detect the movement of players and entities, so hunters can easily navigate to the map and even ping the cameras for other players to know there’s something interesting there.
We’ve found several heavy processes that affected the performance, we fixed them.
Don't worry about it, just don't scream too loud.
