- Ashes of Oahu : Price Reduction - 1 October 2019
Aloha Koa, It’s been a little over a month since we released our polynesian passion project, Ashes of Oahu and we have some more exciting news. Ashes of Oahu is available for purchase on Steam at a new price of $19.99USD. This isn’t a sale. It’s the new permanent price. For those not in the know, Ashes of Oahu is an open world, post-apocalyptic RPG shooter where you tap into the power of the spirit world to liberate the Hawaiian island of Oahu from the army that occupies it. Inspired by native Hawaiian stories, traditions, and beliefs but with a unique fiction all its own. Save paradise, save your son, and save the world. You can now do all of this for half the original price. Cheers and Mahalo!

Firstly we just wanted to thank the community for all of the helpful feedback on Discord and the Steam Forums as well as the streaming and Youtube community providing us with a first hand account of all the things we can do to improve the game. We've been paying attention, and the performance message has been heard loud and clear. We've been working over the last few days to try and identify some of the ways we can improve this, and this patch represents a big leap forward. We've found and eliminated one of the biggest contributors to FPS loss at night. You should see an improvement all across the map. Internal testing now shows FPS is consistent day and night. There are still FPS issues when travelling into asset rich areas. They are caused by loading times and we will be looking at ways to improve those as well. We've also addressed all reported quest issues as we try to make the miss…

- Developer Diary #7: The Many Forms of Kai - 23 July 2019
Aloha, it’s been a while since our last developer blog, but don’t worry, we’ve been hard at work on Ashes of Oahu. The team has been putting the game through its paces in the QA process, but among the many bugs we’ve squashed these past few days we still found the time to sneak in a few new forms for Kai. Kai already had the ability to mount a horse to help him traverse the island, but in this blog, we want to show you a few other ways he can navigate also. Throughout the legends of pre-colonial Hawaii runs a thread of shapeshifting heroes and villains. From the wily kupua to the mysterious mo’o, moving from human form to that of various creatures of the ‘aina is a long-standing show of great mana. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34815199%2Fd019310eebf21628d95893b97588fa2d9fdcb6fb.jpg So, tired of walking around on the ground? No problem. One of Kai’s fo…
