- Unlanded RELEASED! - 8 June 2024
Hazaaa!!! It's finally released! For so many years I lived with a feeling of incompleteness, awakening from the 2d thrust-vector nightmares, seeing "Complete me..." in shadows. And now it's all gone. You now have the full version of the Unlanded and I now have my freedom back! (..till the next project I suppose). Anyhow, thank you all who kept an eye on my progress and to all who accepted the challenge of Early Access Unlanded with courage. You are my heroes! Hope you'll enjoy the full and mighty Unlanded. GLHF!

- Sound And Stuff (Update #8) - 30 September 2023
Hello, friends! Were are getting closer and closer to the final release. Frankly, with this update, I've lost track of the changes made. A lot of small stuff, some textures, plenty of fixes and plenty of new bugs. But the big one here is definitely theeee Sound. Still unbalanced and not set properly, but it's a big step nevertheless. Changelog: - Ambient Music! - Sound Effects! - Other Stuff!!!
- Oh noooooooo... - 21 June 2023
Hello folks! I know there's not many of you, but for those, who are really waiting for the upcoming game release this summer, I have to say, please accept my sincere apologies. We decided to enlarge the scope of the game with some cinematics, multiple language localizations, and some sound experiments. This shifted the release window to October. In general, for the project this is good, for my mental health - not really. Anyhow, thanks for staying with us. Cheers :)
- Update #7 - 29 April 2023
Hello everyone! The last few months were not very productive and fascinating. I mainly focused on preparing stuff for the following updates, polishing some visual effects, adding some sounds and tracking bugs. Also, the game will get localizations. I haven't decided on the languages list yet, so if you wish the game to be translated into your language, please let me know in the comments :) Changelog: - new SFX and ambient sounds - a new remade tutorial level - slightly updated UI visuals - bugfixes
- Update #6 - 19 February 2023
I finally feel confident about how the game should be in its final state. So we aim for a full release this Summer, early summer to be more precise. It may transfer into the late summer, but quite unlikely. Also, this update brings some ship destruction effects and some fixes. Thank you for staying tuned and have a good weekend! Changelog: - new ship atmosphere burn effect - new ship antimatter destruction effect - new ship darkness destruction effect - updated ship dark matter destruction effect - updated ship liquid destruction effect - bugfixes
- Update #5 - 11 February 2023
Hola! I've noticed that 1 hit death leads to most players playing extremely cautiously. That's not fun! So now when you hit something the auto teleportation is triggered. Though you still won't be able to rush each level, as charges are limited. Currently, I'm trying to figure out the right amount of charges and their recovery speed. Another gameplay change is that the ship is now faster. Previously I've faced situations when I know the ship will collide in a second, but there was really no escape. With a 20% speed boost this situation will occur less often. And lastly, I've brought settings menus, like Controls both for the keyboard and gamepad. You can set keys for anything. You can even break the game by putting all actions on the same button. Why would you do that?! I don't know, have fun. Thanks for staying tuned! Changelog Gameplay: - Teleportation now triggers automatically on im…
- Update #4 - 18 November 2022
Hey, mates! This time the update brings a little bit of story to the game. Some text shows up occasionally and... that's it so far! This update contains only a part of the narrative experience, so I'd suggest playing it only if you want to see how things develop. Or if you'd like to give some feedback. Feedback is always appreciated :) Thanks for staying tuned! Changelog: - Narrative texts in-game - Narrative texts in the scenes menu - Minor fixes all around - Removed the "level is broken" feature from the "liquids" level P.S. English is not my native and I plan to do the weirdness check and translations later. If something sounds too strange to you, plz let me know :)
- Update #3 - 3 November 2022
Hey friends! Did some visual improvements. I hope you like it :) Changelog: New textures and effects for 9 planets
- Update #2 - 14 September 2022
Hello, friends! The update that took two years is finally here! \(^o^ )/ I’ve been thinking a lot. Mainly about whether I should make the game more friendly, more casual, more arcade. Currently, Unlanded controls are floaty, and its inertia and thrusts are counterintuitive for most players. Only ~5% are quick enough in adaptation or brutal enough to accept the challenge no matter how hard it is. So I thought and thought and finally made a decision - the game will stay niche. That may be not the best commercial decision, but whatever + I really like the feel of motion the game provides right now. Overall, the goal is to make Unlanded better. Fill it with some content, music, maybe make gameplay a bit more variative, and improve what can be improved. Thank you for staying tuned! Changelog: - New Teleportation mechanic - The ship is now brighter - The ship has new thrusting effects - Tutor…
- Update #1 - 15 June 2020
Hey friends! Apparently 100+ attempts for a level is not what everyone is "hooray" about. So based on the feedback and stats I've partially redesigned those levels into a shorter/simpler versions of themselves. Also, I've added a few more levels in order to give new players some extra time for getting used to the inertia and ship controls. Overall, the game is just the same but a bit smoother and longer. Thank you! Changelog: - 2 new levels featuring liquid mechanic; - A new level featuring chasers; - A new "Dark Comets Flow" level; - "Yellow Planet" level redesigned; - "Pulsars Field" level redesigned; - "Asteroids Labyrinth" level simplified (more paths, guidance leads only through wide ways, fewer deadends); - "Dark Comets Field" level shortened; - White dots in the tutorial are replaced with more familiar blue rings;
