• Echoes of the Hive — Back in Development 🚀 - 5 June 2026

  Hey everyone. We're back.Development on Echoes of the Hive restarted last month after a short pause. The past four weeks have been intense — gutting old systems, fixing years' worth of bugs, setting up the engine for the game it deserves to be.Here's what changed.🧹 The Big Bug HuntWe swept the entire bug tracker and fixed 33 issues in a single pass. Not the flashy stuff — the kind of bugs that make a game feel bad:UI rebuilding every single frame instead of only on data changeCamera scrolling outside the world boundaryAI chase distances hardcoded (and way too aggressive)Projectiles destroyed by background tilesFrame rate cap set to 1000 — your GPU did not appreciate thatAll fixed. Game already feels snappier.🏗️ Rewriting the FoundationThe codebase grew organically over time — systems tangled together, hard to change without breaking something else. Midway through a full Event-Driven A…

• Development Delays - 26 February 2026

  What's Been HappeningI’ve had to push back the release of my game to late 2026, mainly because university has been taking up most of my time lately. On top of that, I’ve been helping out with Infinity27’s project Samsara, which has been an amazing experience but also pretty demanding. That said, I’m planning to get back into full development this May, and I’m really looking forward to making proper progress again.I just want to say a huge thank you for helping the game reach 691 wishlists! It honestly means the world to me to see so many people excited about the project. I also want to apologise for the lack of updates lately, things have been a bit quiet on my end, but I haven’t forgotten about it. Your patience and support really keep me motivated, and I can’t wait to share more progress with you soon.From Leon

• Progress Update - New Weapons - 1 September 2025

  Progress UpdateHey, welcome back to another update. Been a little while since the last update since I have been a little busy, however that doesn't mean progress has stopped! I am now working on adding more weapons to the game, as it currently lacks this at the moment. I am also working on making bosses to be spawn-able through items, which are craft-able through the resources you find in the world.There is still a lot of work to be done but hopefully early access won't be too far off. The demo lets you play the game in its beta form, so that won't be going away! Also with next fest around the corner, trying to get most features done for the next demo update is key :)Whats NewNew weapon attack animationNew combat code which replaces old combat systemConsumablesBoss Spawning ItemsNew Weapon TexturesBombsWhats in progressNew Crafting Items for new weaponsRange WeaponsNew Crafting RecipesW…
