- Микрокосмос для интеллектуалов: Обзор Cocoon - 1 November 2023
В то время, как грохочущий моховик игровой индустрии трещит по швам от неустанно раздувающихся бюджетов и необъятных ААА-блокбастеров, пожирающих десятки твердотельных гигабайтов, небольшие студии, проживающие на тихой окраине волшебной страны видеоигр, продолжают усердно работать над маленькими шедеврами. Где-то на залитых солнцем лугах Дании бывший сотрудник компании Playdead , геймдизайнер Еппе Карлсен , около семи лет трудился не покладая рук над собственным проектом под названием Cocoon. На прошлом месте работы Еппе заработал себе блестящую репутацию. Именно он был мозговым центром, стоящим за игровыми механиками Limbo и INSIDE – жемчужинами среди инди-проектов. Но теперь придется доказать свою состоятельность в одиночку.

- Cocoon Hotfix #1 - 4 October 2023
Thank you to everyone who has played Cocoon since launch on Friday! It's been great to see it resonate with so many players. Full Patch Notes: An improved system for checking and unlocking achievements has been implemented. We weren't able to find a bug with how this was functioning previously, but the game will now check for achievement unlocks more robustly on startup. The game's resolution now defaults to the max 16:9 supported resolution by the user's display. We made sure that there is always at least one 16:9 resolution option with max height in the UI. Fixed an issue with 144 Hz monitors not being able to run the game higher than 48 fps. We recommend the locked 72 fps option for users with these displays. Added the ability to run the game at higher than 60 fps for displays above 60 Hz. Added a non-vsynced 60 fps option for screens that don't support vsynced 60 fps. Fixed target F…
