Latest updates

Devlog

We're on Steamworks

Quick but exciting update: Outpost Games is now part of Steamworks, Valve's developer program.

The Portal Gets a New Look

We reworked the portal visuals. It's now concave like a fisheye lens, and it shows a live view of the area you're about to teleport to.

Building the Tutorial Room

Every good FPS needs a solid tutorial. We built ours from scratch: here's how we teach players the core mechanics without boring them to death.

The Dome: 100 Screens, No Lag

We wanted the dome to look like it's made of hundreds of screens. The first version killed performance.

The Backroom & the Merchant

We added a backroom with the merchant. Buy upgrades, prepare for the next wave. Here's how it fits into the loop.

Auto-Run with Acceleration

We added an automatic run mechanic with a twist: you accelerate into full speed rather than hitting it instantly.

Rethinking the Circuit Board Timing

We're tuning the hit thresholds and margins on the circuit board mechanic. And players no longer need to clear a room to progress.

Main Menu is Live

The main menu is in. Small thing, but it makes the game feel real for the first time.

The Key Mechanic

You can't just walk through the Backroom portal. You need a key, which drops randomly. Here's why we added this and what it does to the game.

Resizing the Tank Enemy

The Tank enemy was too small. Players weren't reading it as a threat. We fixed that.
