- NEW PRICE!! - 20 May 2019
We have lowered the official price of Runes to a whooping $15.99!! Come get it : D Also subtitles are out of beta, so enjoy those as well. In case of unexpected bugs the previous version without subtitles is still available in the beta branch. Thank you for your continued support : )
- SUBTITLES : English, German, Spanish and Italian in Beta Branch - 25 January 2019
We just updated the beta branch with subtitles in several languages! Jump in and enjoy the story with all these options! We hope this makes the game more accessible to everyone : ) https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F28663494%2F9f6c53c8c7f579cc83a5169d934a27e300fbb6e7.png There are tons of small fixes included as well, some of which for example are the persistence of your locomotion choice (no more resetting it at every level or when restarting the game), as well as some difficulty adjustments, specially in the forest, where things are a bit more tricky now : ) Subtitles are still in beta as we would love to hear your thoughts about them and we might even tweak them a bit more to make them as comfortable as possible for everyone. We hope you enjoy this update and keep supporting the game. P.S: To acess the beta branch just opt in in steam, if you don´t know…
- ENGLISH SUBTITLES IN BETA! - 29 December 2018
You can opt in the beta branch to start testing the English subtitles! They are on by default but we will implement a menu to toggle them once we have tested thoroughly and fixed minor problems with them. More languages are coming as well, the first round will be the following: https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F28663494%2F3269a66f96dc82e2b2ea94a0daccf82b59482f5d.jpg We have been working tirelessly on an implementation of subtitles that is both comfortable and useful in a narrative game like ours. As some of you might know there are problems with VR implementation of subtitles that make it a much harder task to solve than in regular pancake games. From VAC (vergence accommodation conflict) when the subtitles are rendered at a "wrong" depth in 3D space, to having the subtitles attached to the HMD movements in a jarring way. We opted for placing subtitles in…
- RUNES is 25% OFF during the Winter Sale! - 21 December 2018
25% off in Runes during the winter sales : ) Take this chance to grab Runes at a discounted price! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F28663494%2F5f3adc2307e329cd800f02d24516fc9a94952963.jpg I hope you are all having a great holiday! We are hard at work making subtitles available in game and expect to have a beta of them very soon. We are making them a bit different than most games in order to have a more comfortable solution that doesn't have the depth perception problems most VR subtitles have. We are working also in translations for the subtitles and expect to have German, Spanish and Italian in the first batch : ) (More languages possibly coming as well). Thank you for your support!
- SUBTITLES SOON! - 16 December 2018
Hi everyone! We are hard at work on the implementation of subtitles for Runes. We are on the right track and expect to have them ready for you soon. Since we are implementing subtitles is a great time to include different languages for the subtitles and have a better experience for non-english speakers. Let us know what languages you would like to see in the game. You can tell us here or directly on our Discord. Happy Holidays!
- Update is live! - 24 November 2018
We just merged the beta branch into the public one with the fixes we posted yesterday. We tested the game several times and found no problems. I hope you will have a smooth experience. As always let us know of any feedback and we will fix any issues as fast as we can. Enjoy Oblivion : ) and thank you for your continued support. Some of the bigger fixes are: -Fixed fps dependent speed with smooth locomotion. -Fixed telekinesis and smooth locomotion. Before, using telekinesis while having smooth locomotion caused it to move you forward as you moved objects. Now this is fixed, when holding an object with your left hand you will not propel forward as well. -Fixed audio problems with some enemies. -Fixed smooth locomotion restarting after tutorials, etc. Now it should be seamless and not require you to activate it again after cinematics or tutorials (only after changing whole levels). -Fixed…
- BETA BRANCH FIXES - 23 November 2018
Thank you everyone that purchased Runes! The good reception is overwhelming and makes us so happy. Thank you so much for the feedback as well, we are implementing fixes and catching early bugs as fast as we can. Since Runes is a lot of moving pieces we are implementing these fixes first in the beta branch of the game and once we know everything is smooth we will push it to the public branch. Some of the fixes we implemented are: -Fixed fps dependent speed with smooth locomotion. -Fixed telekinesis and smooth locomotion. Before, using telekinesis while having smooth locomotion caused it to move you forward as you moved objects. Now this is fixed, when holding an object with your left hand you will not propel forward as well. -Fixed audio problems with some enemies. -Fixed smooth locomotion restarting after tutorials, etc. Now it should be seamless and not require you to activate it again…
- OCULUS SDK version is now LIVE too! - 15 November 2018
We just updated the game to include the option of launching the native Oculus SDK version with snap turning, grip button grabbing and better controller setup for the Oculus Touch. It should give you the option to launch the game in that mode, but we found that if you have SteamVR running it launches the SteamVR version right away. If you have any problems simply right click on the game and you will have the option. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F28663494%2Fca9286ce65fba77acf71c4e0ace2404dd4539935.png Apparently if you are running SteamVR already steam will think you want to launch the SteamVR version. But if SteamVR is off and you launch the game with the Play button it should give you the option right away. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F28663494%2F8cee5caa5e3ee30b60dfa423dd842b1ed634b12d.png Let us know if you have an…

We got feedback of some users having issues using the Rift on the steamvr build. We are investigating the issue and will have a soultion for it by including a native oculus sdk version by the end of the day. Thanks everyone that brought this problem to our attention: in the mess of releasing the game we overlooked it. You'll have it fixed and ready with a working snap turn, adjusted controllers and gameplay for oculus suuper duper soon! Have fun!

Today is a great day! As we're getting closer and closer to release, the time has finally come for us to unveil the new key art for Runes: The Forgotten Path. We have been working on it for a while and here we are! Why a new key art? Simply put: we really enjoyed the old one, but we felt it didn't represent how Runes has evolved overtime. We decided to create a new cover that could convey the sense of adventure, action and epicness we put inside our game. It also comes with a whole new set of screenshots int the store! We really hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
