Build Release 15.08.2025 Announcement and Changelog
Welcome to the August test build!
This build is a very special release, placing a milestone in our development of the combat system. It delivers a broad improvement pass of our combat, focusing on melee combat. We added several new enemies and weapons, defined and tuned 10 weapon base classes, reworked weapon stats such as damage and parry windows, updated animations and timings, improved enemy AI, and tuned enemy health, exhaustion, and other combat stats. Movement is more responsive, and a set of long-standing issues has been cleaned up.
Combat Arena
The new Combat Arena focuses on player vs monster using the 10 weapon base classes. It includes a Main Arena that tracks points per weapon base class, so players can see how far they can push each one, plus three dedicated Encounter Arenas for focused testing. Analytics are integrated to support balancing and iteration, so please enable them. The Combat Arena will improve and shift its focus with each new release cycle. For the latest details, check the Info Box inside the arena level.
Other areas have progressed significantly too, we have improved the Lake Village and Pearl Village areas as well as the Apoc blockout. Our designers were very busy iterating and improving many quests and npc dialogues in the game and our sandbox has over 100 new finished props from our main story asset work.

wird das spiel auch in einer deutschen Sprachausgabe oder Untertitel noch hinzugefügt?
Untertitel höchstwahrscheinlich, ja.
can the arena and combat mechanics be used and customized in sandbox?
I just downloaded the recent version of the game and theres no dialog at all anyone know how to fix that? or is that just how it is
where can i download the new build?
So I finally got around to doing everything I could for this 25 dollar build. While my full feedback and questions I feel should be sharred on the discord, in general, the game is on the right path.
Hey I'm really proud of the growth and development this project has undergone especially in the past year, its been very transformative and interesting to see the way the game and its story has developed especially in comparison to the earlier iterations. I was among the small voices showing early interest in combat and survival mechanics, so I'm really happy to see how these systems have been implemented. Obviously the character models are all gorgeous and the animations are masterful, but this was already nailed years ago. I acknowledge those improvements as well, but I'm really happy to see the overall progress. I eagerly look forward to the eventual full release next year, if things continue as scheduled.
Why is the section for changing clothes (Character) not available?
why does it say login in launcher window then when i click login it closes
Hi, I'm new to this game. How do I change the character into a female?
in sandbox you can be whoever you want you just possess them, also in the story you become maya for a while still learning myself
Would love to see a few different equippable navel piercings too! Some studs, some dangly ones. Oh yeah. All my support to you guys, this is a fun as hell project and continues to get better!
A super project! We are looking forward to it!
or add highheels o other costumes
cant edit the pj in arena mode ?
I would love to see the strapon clothing option for all of the woman in the game. Can that be done?
17 hours still no link just paid the $10 again no link ?? but you can only get the new releases if you pay $25 have now learnt
$10 won't be for another week or so. release of builds is staggered based on membership tier. $10 is roughly two weeks after announcement before it is unlocked. Check back at the end of the month.
Pretty new here, I spent my first 30-40h in the June build and I was already stunned by the quality of your work. This update seems fire! Thank you soo much for your dedication and work! I’m a professional sound designer/audio engineer, if you’ll ever need that kind of service don’t hesitate to reach out. It will be wonderful to contribute more!
