- Gemini 1.1.0.1 - 11 June 2024
- fixed some minor issues with incursion mode including: * drop pod not being collectable unless players are in zone (despite door being opened) * issues with triv variant enemies (gunship/droids) for incursion for maps playing as avians - added support for custom incursion maps via new modkit - added a safe graphics mode script "RunGeminiSafeGFX" in the base game directory to easily set and run the game at minimum graphics settings in Windows (useful for players with older/lower end gpus or for troubleshooting purposes) - updated Chinese translation
- Full Release - 7 June 2024
After many long hard working years, Gemini is now feature complete, with the release of the ‘Incursion’ game mode. Returning to our co-op roots, we wanted to make sure we created the kind of mode players actually wanted, as well as forming as a basis for future projects. Incursion is an objective based co-op experience, in it’s new map ‘inc_tundra’ you and your squad play as a small covert group of Trivexians tasked with sneaking into a fortified Avian base under the cover of darkness. Your team perform various acts of espionage and destruction, ultimately destroying the shield bubble that lead to the events of the original tundra holdout mission; this map officially being a ‘prequel’ to that. The mode has some depth, featuring stealth mechanics, sabotage, large open spaces, patrols, and more, making it an incredibly engaging and exciting mission, with every action you take leaving last…
- Gemini 1.0.1.1 - 16 January 2024
- Gemini f2p build with supporter DLC implementation
- Gemini - Free 2 Play announcement - 10 January 2024
After much consideration we have decided to move Gemini: Binary Conflict to a free to play model. After many years of development effort; learning and exploiting some of the cool features and idiosyncrasies of Unreal Engine, we believe we've created something engaging, colourful, and most importantly fun to play, with unique environments and mechanics. Unfortunately we haven't had much success with the 'premium' model and seem to be stuck in a vicious cycle of players not being attracted to the game due to lack of other players (although silver lining: we have received a lot of praise for our bots/AI from our small but dedicated community). Although it would have been nice to see some up-front reward for our efforts, by going F2P we hope to bring some value for those who have supported us so far by expanding the player base, as well as getting Gemini into the hands of as many gamers as…
