Dev Update (24/02/2025)

Added 2025-02-24 15:39:22 +0000 UTC

Hi!

Here's a quick dev update.

The goal for the previous week was to implement the grenade system and that goal was successful since every grenade related mechanic is now in the game.

There's still some animation variants that I get 27th of this month but since I already have a working system, those are pretty much just drag & drop stuff to get working.

This being said all the main goals for Q1 are really close for being done, which is a really good thing in terms of early access timelines. For Q1, I basically only need one more shelter (Lookout Tower) and a little bit of polishing for certain features, but since I have one more month left for Q1, I have plenty of time left.

When it comes to this week, I have few media stuff for example interviews and articles for Finnish national broadcasting company and then I'm mostly likely going to implement the early access tutorial / training area since I have pretty cool ideas for that to make it more interesting.

To summarize, progression is really good at the moment and I will spent this extra Q1 month that I gained for working on some of the Q2 stuff in-advanced.

One last thing that I want to mention is that this will be the last month for the Support Patches. ~900 patches were delivered around the world and after this week the patches are going to be removed from Varusteleka stores and never be sold again to honor that limited edition phrase.

So if you want to grab one of those patches, this week will be the last moment for that, here's a link to that patch:

ps. There has been a bunch of Q2 work done already behind the scenes with contractors and for example I will reveal the shelter cat screenshots within few hours :)
