- Celebrating 100 Reviews - 26 October 2020
Every small step is an important one when you’re an indie-game studio, so today we wanted to celebrate our 100 Steam Reviews Mark, and of course, reward our fans and followers for it. 100 is a small number, but it means a lot to us because it’s the most we’ve ever had. Of course, we will give our best to increase this in the future, but for now let’s just appreciate the moment. As you all probably know, every member of Workbench Entertainment highly appreciates the opinions of each and every one of you, even when they’re a bit “saltier” than they should. After all, criticism is what makes us better. As for the positive ones, we cannot thank you enough. It’s what helps us push forward. For our 100 Steam Reviews Milestone, we’re giving out fifteen digital keys for Wounded – The Beginning. But, that’s not all. Stay tuned because for this upcoming Halloween we have an update coming out with…
- Wounded - The Beginning 2.1.2 - 26 September 2020
In this week's update we focused on polishing and bug fixes. One of the main issues was the brightness bug that some players encountered in the main menu. The brightness was automatically set to 0, so many people thought that the game crashed. We believe we found the root of the problem but it if it ever happens again to someone and possibly finds a way to replicate it, please post about it so we can take a look. Here's what else is changed: - Fixed a bug with the drill in the market where sometimes the battery won't work - Fixed trigger for a specific wardrobe where you could hide in it through the wall - Fixed timing for the look at event in the new "Lazlo's Journal" scene - Other small changes and polishes through the game
- The Attic - 2.1 - 15 September 2020
In this update we focused on expanding the story, adding new content, as well as polishing some things that needed slightly more attention. Here's whats changed: - We made this build by using a different compression method, so now the game will take even less space on your hard drive - Added new segment in the motel scene. This should further explain the story for those who were not familiar with "The Skinner" and what he did - Added a few elements that help you understand your decisions better. Not listing them here due to spoiler reasons. - Fixed a few small bugs and did some polishing to the level design We'll keep working on updates so stay tuned. We have a larger update coming in a few weeks with even more content. As always, thank you for your support, it means the world to us.
- New Beginning - 2.0 - 2 September 2020
We had a rough start with Wounded, but our passion for developing video games is stronger than the obstacles we had to face. Being zero-budget is not easy these days, but we managed to fix the flaws in our team and find replacement for those who couldn’t continue working. Our new programmer had a lot of bug-fixing to do, but at the end he managed to make it happen. Now that we’re stronger on the programming-side, bringing interesting features and mechanics to life is no longer an impossible task. We worked quite a lot on this update and made a significant progress. In the patch notes below you’ll find out what’s new. Our main focus for this update was making the story clearer, expanding some of the scenes so that each one has a special purpose, adding completely new unexplored environments and as always, polishing. Fixing some of the issues we had from the very beginning was rough, but…

We're working on a permanent fix for this problem but if any of you experience this bug, just do these two simple steps and you will be able to…
