- Update 8: Project Afterfall Initialised! Co-op & More - Live Now! - 6 August 2026
Attention, Alloys!The Council has deliberated and concluded that a rebranding campaign will improve the Project's long-term sustainability and future prospects. As a result, Project Thea is now known as Project Afterfall!Alongside the new name comes our biggest update yet. The long-awaited Co-op Mode is now active, allowing up to two players to join forces and explore the Wastelands together.The newly rebranded Project Afterfall also introduces a complete overhaul of the city defence mechanics, making battles both more engaging and much easier to understand. Finally, your 'trusted' companion, the A.I. has found its voice! The NPC is now fully voiced throughout the main questline - by one of our own developers, no less. It's certainly been an unexpected (and rather fun) new challenge for our tiny team.Please Note: Old Save will break!You can finish your run on the previous version:Right-…

- UPDATE 7 - Almost Together - 25 June 2026
Twin Time! - testing the final stages for the co-op mode.In this month's update, we've created a special, test COOP_EA branch on Steam where you can check out this new play mode and, if you're willing, give us some much-needed feedback.Right-click the game on Steam → Properties → Betas → choose the branch: coop_eaNo password required, so if you can, hop in and let us know what you think!Co-op mode allows you and a friend to play together as the Twin Alloys. You can fight battles and overcome challenges side by side, or choose to roam the Wastelands separately, greatly expanding your range of exploration and discovery.We're very eager to hear what you think of the mode, as we suspect it will need a few balancing passes and plenty of testing before it's fully ready.Current Steam branchThe main game has also received a small update, including more of the new character art and a brand-new e…
- UPDATE 6: Reshaping the Alloys - 28 May 2026
Reshaping the AlloysThis month's update is all about improving our dear Alloys. We’ve basically thrown them back into the smelting ovens and reforged them anew. We hope to add even more variants over time, but for now, we do hope you enjoy the new look.Alongside the visual overhaul, there are also a few new story additions and fixes included in this update.AdditionsADD Replaced all Alloy character art. This means all 7 Alloys - the Beast, the Folklore, the Elven, the Dwarborg, the Dorc, the Femorc, and the Gobb - all received a cool makeover. We feel this gives you a much greater variety of looks and styles across each race.ADD Zenobius is having even more issues - his mind seems to be slipping away. Will you help him get better? Zenobius personal quest added.ADD Azure is seeing those blue skies again, dreaming of the life she once possessed. This time, someone from those dreams is in t…
- Update 5 is live with plenty of new stories to tell. - 30 April 2026
UPDATE 5: Story TimeThis month’s update is much smaller in scope, but hopefully just as exciting for those of you who enjoy the many Wasteland mini-adventures hidden within every POI. And just to give some overall perspective, we now have approximately 200k words in the Project event bundle. There’s a lot more stories waiting out there… if you’re willing to look. As an added bonus, this update should not break any saves! Story ContentADD Many of the locations in the 1st and 2nd ring have received additional story paths, meaning that even places you’ve already explored may now hold entirely new outcomes, choices, and consequences. If you thought you’d seen everything a location had to offer… it might be time to take another look.ADD Svetlana now approaches you with a personal request. An ancient tree has begun calling to her in her dreams - something old, something persistent. Will you h…
