Venus: The Last Ascent Demo · published 12 Jun 2026, 16:14 UTC

All news Players around this date Read on Steam

Hi everyone,

We just released a small demo update for Venus: The Last Ascent.

This update focuses on player comfort and control options based on the feedback we’ve received since the demo went live.

New in this update:

Added inverted axis setting while controlling the character
Added inverted axis setting while driving the HUB Machine
Added motion blur setting
Added camera shake setting

Please note that inverted axis is not yet applied during construction mode. That part of the control system needs more time, but we wanted to get the character and driving controls improved first.

Still in progress:

Construction stability improvements
Structural connection stability during module removal
Additional building and construction polish
More player settings and accessibility options

We’re continuing to monitor feedback, bug reports, and player comments as we improve the demo.

Thanks again to everyone who has played, wishlisted, shared feedback, or reported issues. It helps us a lot as we continue development.
