- 2.0.0b Patch Notes - 24 February 2023
Balance When a Wisp can no longer upgrade your tools, it now gives +1 Wood and Stone _per night_ (at least 5/5). Chapter 2 minion scaling has been reduced to match Chapter 1's scaling. In practice this means Chapter 2 Night 50 is ~35% weaker than before. Water and mountain "blobs" are now a little smaller, which means there are fewer chances for very bad maps and very good maps to form. This basically means less RNG on map generation! Corrosive Potions cost: 3 Wood, 2 Stone -> 3 Wood, 1 Stone Caustic Cauldron armor penetration: 2 -> 3 Windmill cost: 5 Wood, 3 Stone -> 6 Wood, 4 Stone Windmill bonuses: +30% range, +30% AS -> +25% range, +25% AS Other Added an option to disable cosmetic building animations. Added an ingame timer Bugfixes Fixed a bug where projectile models would be rotated backwards Fixed a lot of other bugs in previous patches for which I was too lazy to make patch notes…

- Valor just had its first major update! - 1 November 2021
Hi everyone! I'm using this message to promote our new game, Valor, that came out in Early Access on Steam last week. The game just received its first major update: Affixes! Affixes make every fight unique by randomly adding extra obstacles, special enemies or giving extra powers to existing enemies. In a way, it's a bit Outpost in terms of randomization. Every fight is different! If you're interested in the game, check it out here! The game is still being worked on, so your feedback is very valuable. If you prefer to wait out the development first, be sure to wishlist the game!

- 30/06 Balance Changes - 30 June 2021
Hi everyone! We have recieved a bunch of feedback concerning the rewards and experience gains in Chapter 2. That means something is off, and we hope this small balance path helps with that. The following changes have been made: All items gained from Chapter 2 are 12.5% stronger from now on. This should help you feel like the items you receive are an actual improvement compared to Chapter 1. All experience gains in Chapter 2 have been increased by 50%. That's roughly the equivalent of 2 extra nights. Hopefully that experience wall won't hit as hard now!
- Outpost 1.9: Collectors! - 28 September 2020
Collector Buildings A new type of building has been added: collectors! These buildings will automatically gather resources for you, but they cost energy to build. While not as efficient as your own hands, they will save you some time for when you'd rather do a quick run for items than a long run for experience. Photo Mode You'll now find a new "Photo Mode" in the pause menu, allowing you to easily create cool screenshots of your base, and show them off on the Steam Community! Main Menu The Main Menu just became more dynamic. You'll see your friends' characters hanging out in the background, and the buildings in the menu scene will upgrade along with upgrades you purchase. Other Changes Performance improvements for character navigation There is now a "buy soundtrack" option in the main menu for those who want to support development. You can now see locked character styles by hovering ove…
- Outpost 1.8: Chapter II - 18 July 2020
Chapter 2 After the events from Chapter 1, nature's defences have been depleted, and allowed the Void to breach its containment. Corruption is spreading across the lands, and you need to stop it. From now on, reaching Night 50 in Chapter 1 will unlock Chapter 2. Once unlocked, you'll be able to fight new monsters and bosses, unlock new items, customizations, and fight for the first place on the new leaderboard. Call of the Void Chapter 2 also features a new feature: Call of the Void. On days 1, 11, 21, 31 and 41, you'll be presented with a choice: Gain a short-term bonus, but also take a negative effect with it. These choices will vary through playthroughs, so you'll have to think carefully about which Calls of the Void you accept! Small Changes With the new chapter also comes a new tier of Talents! They come at a hefty price, though. We've started work on translating the game and are l…
- Outpost 1.7: Artisans - 1 June 2020
Item Crafting You can now disassemble all the items that you don't use, to gain Arcane Essence. You can then use your Arcane Essence to craft new epic items. You can choose the slot, appearance, name and stats! Customization The Customization code has been rewritten. As a result, you'll have to re-select your previously selected colors from the customization menu. There is also a new option where you can customize the color of your Shrine and its bullets! Additionally, there are now a couple of new item models and colors to choose from. There are also a few new item traits, discussed below. Fishing Spots There is now a new tool: the Fishing Rod. You can use this to fish in fishing spots you'll find scattered across the map. Fishing can give you resources, but also has a chance to give you special treasures that grant bonuses for your current run! New Talents Fishing Rod This one is simp…
- Outpost 1.6: Fortifications - 18 May 2020
New Buildings: Traps The building arsenal has been expanded with 3 new buildings: the Mudpool, Stick Trap and Barbed Wire! They all function as a barricade that will slow down (and sometimes damage!) enemies that walk over it. Berry Bushes You'll now find Berry Bushes scattered across the map as a rare spawn. You can collect them to replenish your energy a maximum of once per day. Choose carefully, because they do not respawn! New Talents Bow Damage These talents will increase your bow's damage by how much energy you have left. Will you save up your energy for extra damage? Berry Bushes These talents will increase the amount of energy you get from harvesting a Berry Bush. Small Changes Talents that you can not afford are no longer highlighted There is now water around the map edges SHIFT Building is now mentioned in the tutorial You can now also move by right clicking on the minimap Col…
