Hey all, this is a quick update to say that Steam Cloud is now enabled for Distance! Your personal leaderboards, medal progress, editor levels, etc. will now be backed up after closing the game. Since it's a change in Steam's backend there is no new build to download, and it works cross-platform with Windows, Mac, and Linux. Thanks for your patience while sorting this one out!

DAC 2020 Submissions

With December right around the corner that means Distance Advent Calendar (DAC) is starting up soon! If you're into level making it's an excellent opportunity to get your own creations in front of players. To quote Californ1a from our mod team on Discord: [quote=Californ1a]It's that time of year again, DAC 2020 is open for submissions! Hit that follow button and turn on notifications for this channel to be notified when DAC maps start releasing in December! If you're new around here, DAC is the Distance Advent Calendar. Every year a whole bunch of map authors get together to release (at least) one new map each day of December leading up to the 25th. Occasionally we also have additional submissions alongside the maps like videos, wallpapers, and more. Anyone is free to join in and make a map regardless of your editor skills - There are plenty of people around to help out if you want to try your hand at learning the editor! Let us know if there is a map you want to release during December so we can get you added to the calendar.[/quote] Join our Discord community to get in on the action: http://discord.gg/distance

Other Refract Stuff

For those out of the loop with Refract this year I posted a devlog a little while back:

• The Next Chapter of Refract

It's obviously been a very strange year but plenty is happening behind the scenes. We're not quite ready to discuss what's coming next from Refract but we hope to have news soon. Until then I hope you and your families are staying safe and doing well this year! - Jordan (with everyone at Refract)
