• News about the launch of Black Skylands - 3 June 2021

  Hello, captains! As recently as last week, we announced that Black Skylands was going to be released on June 11. This news was met with excitement and approval by our community. Today we at Hungry Couch Games would like to share with you an update regarding the launch of our project. After officially announcing the day on which the early access phase would start, we faced a number of unexpected challenges which made us reconsider our plans of shipping the game on the aforementioned date. A decision has been made to slightly delay the release of Black Skylands. This decision, of course, wasn’t an easy one to make, especially considering the fact that the delay would be announced at such short notice. However, we believe this is an absolutely necessary measure for two major reasons: We want you to experience the best possible version of Black Skylands when it enters early access. We need…

• Black Skylands DevLog — Airships and the Shipyard - 5 July 2020

  Hello, captains! In Black Skylands airships are incredibly Important — they serve as means of transportation and communication between the many scattered islands. In some cases, they can even become a floating house. Without a doubt, people of Skylands simply wouldn't survive having no airships. And as a player, you'll be able to choose and customize your ship to better suit a specific task — all courtesy of the Shipyard and its tools! In today's DevLog we're going to talk exactly about that — ships, shipbuilding and components upgrading. The Man-O-War Let’s talk about the ships themselves first. Right now we have 3 classes of ships planned for the game. Each ship will have base stats, which vary between the models. Your starting ship is a great all-rounder and from there you can decide what is specifically important to you. Are you an aerial ace who values manoeuvrability? Check out Th…

• DevLog — Origins launch and importance of player feedback - 10 June 2020

  Hello, sky sailors! During the release of Black Skylands: Origins we couldn’t help but worry about the game’s reception. We were also very curious about whether or not the players will like the feel of the game and its mechanics. Everybody knows how important feedback is in creating something truly great. In the case of a videogame, player feedback allows for looking at certain aspects from a different perspective. Even better — it presents a whole prism of different views! Today we’ve wanted to share how this feedback helped us and changed our development plans. Some changes were already implemented into Black Skylands: Origins — while others will be waiting for you in the final game. Camera controls Camera behavior was the first thing the players encountered. The camera was focused on the space between the player and the crosshairs — creating a sort of a dead zone above the player's s…
