- Sir, You Are Being Hunted: 1.5 Patch, And Announcing The Reinvented Edition (!) - 3 September 2021
Hello there. You probably saw this already, but ICYMI: Sir, You Are Being Hunted has been updated for the first time in several years, with the 1.5 patch. 64-bit Mac support is now a thing, loads of bugs have been squashed, and the servers are back online for multiplayer. Not only that but we've announced future plans for a remaster of the original game in 2022, produced by our friends at Dutch studio Den Of Thieves Games. They are long term fans of the title, and understand exactly what makes the game tick. We're excited to confirm a new, standalone game, with new gameplay options, new UI, and overhauled visuals, all developed in the charming, silly, scary spirit of the original game. Discounts will be available for everyone who owns the classic edition of Sir, You Are Being Hunted. If you would like to support us in this new venture, then a wishlist always goes a long way. https://sto…

- THE LIGHT KEEPS US SAFE hits V1.0 and transmogrifies its way out of Early Access! - 5 September 2019
Hello, (procedurally generated) World! As the headline quoth, we are out of Early Access and on to v1.0! Here’s a trailer for you to get those v1.0 chills... https://youtu.be/61k1QHWn9go For this update we’ve just pushed to Steam there are some minor gameplay tweaks, bunker layout changes, and audio fixes. We’ve gone back in and messed about with the generation templates - the menu we give the level-generation system - so that the levels produce better environments. The initial zone is unchanged, but you’ll find the others now build tweaked worlds that are slightly more challenging. (Don't forget we addressed issues with the spider-craft in an earlier update.) There are also performance tweaks in this version, although there are still some odd generations that seem to hit performance without our profiler giving us a clear picture of why! We’ve tried to streamline shaders and such to avo…
- ANCIENT ENEMY, Summer Sales, & The Next THE LIGHT KEEPS US SAFE Update Incoming! - 7 July 2019
Hello you. Just a quick update about two things, the first is that ANCIENT ENEMY, the card game that Jim has been working on with Grey Alien Games, is available for wishlist, and isn't too far off release (date TBC!) and if it's your sort of thing then we'd definitely appreciate support! Jim has been overseeing the art direction (his first 2D game!) and wrote the story. We're hugely excited to have worked with two fabulous artists, Dan Emmerson and Jen Pattison. Jake at Grey Alien has had years of experience at this sort of thing, and we're anticipating a tremendous game a bit later this year. Here's a teaser trailer! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ep_m4tg1HHI And the main page for plenty more info and that all-important wishlist link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/993790/Ancient_Enemy/ THE LIGHT STUFF Additionally, we're speeding towards the next update for THE LIGHT KEEPS US SAF…
