UPDATE 1

BARDA: Backpack Roguelike · published 26 Mar 2026, 14:19 UTC · build 22517278

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

This is our first update since the Early Access release! We've received lots of feedback and tried to fix as many issues as possible. We’re a tiny team, but we’re doing our best. Please let us know what you think in the comments, in your Steam review or via the in-game form. Thank you!

A call to all our players: leave a review!

Reviews are one of the main ways in which Steam promotes our game to other players. If you have played the game and enjoyed it, please consider leaving a review! Thank you!

Patch notes : v0.21

Our focus was on resolving as many issues as possible and implementing as many quality-of-life improvements as we could. This update does not include any new major content.

  • Tutorial mode is removed

  • Easy mode is removed

  • Dev note: We’ve got many comments on the complexity of the tutorial, and on the feeling the Easy mode was lacking motivational goal and difficulty. We decided to focus on our main “Story mode” and make it good. Tutorial notes will now be included directly in your first run of the game.

  • It’s now possible to drag objects out of the bag anywhere on the screen

  • New ending screen art

  • Added two loot zones (Forest and Swamp)

  • Added a run animation to the player character

  • A button to the Explorer’s Tree has been added to the “Base Camp” (the first zone of any game)

  • New language added to options: Brazilian Portuguese

  • New quests have been added

  • Added a dotted red line to indicate the limits of the bag

  • “Repair Equipment” now work on every object that has a lowered durability

  • Fixed a major issue with difficulty not adjusting according to altitude

  • Fixed broken quests

  • And many other tiny bugs

A note about the future

Things are not going as well as we had hoped. A publisher pulled out three days before the release, and sales are much lower than we expected.

We will continue working on the game using our own funds for several months to make it as good as possible. Unfortunately, however, we won't be able to include as much content as we had hoped. In the next update, we’ll provide a more detailed roadmap for future updates. Thank you to everyone who supported us during the first two weeks!
