DESOLATE

Heya! We're aware that no one likes to read long off-topic updates, so let's get straight to the point: two of our games will be participating in the upcoming Steam Next Fest, and we'd love it if you'd give their demos a chance. We can't promise a complete match to your tastes, but the quality is guaranteed. The first one is Die in the Dungeon, a turn-based roguelike game where you don't use cards, but dice. Deal with enemies by combining powerful dice on your board, boost their effects with magical relics, and risk it all hoping for a good roll on unexpected encounters. Oh, and the protagonist here is a cute little frog - everyone loves frogs, right? The second one is Intravenous 2, an old-school tactical stealth action game. Will you embrace the shadows or confront your foes head-on? The choice is yours. Save lives. Uncover secrets. Take vengeance. If you're up for some hardcore challenge - don't miss it, you'll dig it for sure. This post should have ended here, as there is no third game for the Fest. BUT there is a third, freshly revealed game that we would still like to present to you, so here we go: Canyons is a third-person extract

Hi Volunteers! We continue to work on Desolate, and today we’ve released another update, in which we’ve fixed a few in-game bugs and made some useful improvements. Reworked the system of enemies’ appearance in the open world. Now the respawn does not occur in the presence of the player; Fixed the respawn of Alpha Sapsy in the hunt mission; Updated Stone Throwing Animations; Fixed context animations when hitting an enemy with a modified weapon; Reworked the balance of melee weapons that have no modifications; Fixed a bug with the interface in the character menu that prevented you from clicking the "Use" button. Thank you for the feedback you give! It helps us make Desolate better. If you've witnessed a bug, please let us know in the comments under this news or on our Discord:

Hello everyone! Our friends from TinyMagicians and HypeTrain Digital have just released a demo version of Outbreak Island - an open-world survival simulator with detective elements. We think the game deserves attention, so we decided to tell you about it! In the demo, you’ll play as Howard Chapman trying to get out of a mysterious underground laboratory. Use your camera and flash to find all the evidence and escape the insane human test subjects. Learn the tragic story of the head of the laboratory, who became a victim of his own research. Eat, drink, heal wounds, look for resources, craft tools and weapons on the go — do everything you can to survive and reach the surface. The laboratory will consist of four completely different floors. On one of those floors players will have to act as stealthily as possible, on the other — try to survive in the pitch-darkness, and on the next one — solve the mystery of experiments and find evidence. We hope you enjoy Outbreak Island as much as we did. And check out the new trailer for the game, which is exclusive to IGN.
