https://store.steampowered.com/app/1696820/Low_Light_Combat/
We are thrilled to announce our brand new 100% free experience, Low Light Combat. Long time Wolfire fans might recognise that name but this multiplayer shooter was developed from the ground up in the cutting edge Unreal Engine 5.
[previewyoutube=64fKI4UWkWc;full][/previewyoutube]
In Low Light Combat light is your only weapon. Matches take place during a rapidly changing day and night cycle, meaning your fast paced fights quickly become tense and thrilling battles of wit. In LLC, your health, ammo, and stamina are all tied to a single resource: Time. That means everything from firing your weapon and taking damage, to sprinting and shining your flashlight will all deplete your time. To replenish your time you must either defeat other players, or touch the reactor found in the middle of the map. But you must act fast because time... is fleeting.

We developed this project in one month and there are a couple reasons for this. We wanted to see what was possible with the new Unreal Engine 5. We wanted to push ourselves to create something fun without taking too much time away from other projects. But mostly we wanted to give the Wolfire community an exciting and unique multiplayer experience at no cost whatsoever!

We will send out another update when the theme is decided and when the map jam begins.

The 1.4 update for Overgrowth is now available.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMuzNDgGDoY
In this update, we added a new story mode campaign: Drika's Story, and some improvements for modding.

The editor's spawner menu has been cleaned up quite a bit. Many new items have been added to the spawner menu (over 200!), and old ones have been cleaned up.

Now most hidden parameters for characters have also been exposed in the editor, so they're easier to find and to remember how to use.

There's also a bunch of other bug fixes and other small modding related features that have been added.

Thanks to the Wolfire community (especially people on The official Discord Server) for all the play testing and bug reporting they've been doing. Without you, this 1.4 release wouldn't have happened! Also, thanks for the late-night spawner item testing. That was a lot of work :)

Changelog:
Here's the top changes in the 1.4 release. The points listed here are just a summary of all the changes. You can find the full change log here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kTlvqPI5DxGyRETuk11pUdpa8x918az96oKNtoTgkdM/edit?usp=sharing

New Drika's Story Mode:
- New story mode content in the Therium 2 universe
- Drastically improved version of the mod version of Drikas Story (so it would be worth another playthrough if youve played the mod)
- A lot of new dialogue and levels
- Graphics updates (to the Steppes especially), and more character interactions

Editor:
- Exposed most hidden parameters on characters, so they can be easily found in the editor UI
- Made AI fear mechanics fully customizable via editor params. Can now make rabbits not flee wolves, make non-wolves scary to other species, etc.
- Added parameter to make a specific character flee when health drops below specified value
- Cleaned up spawner items, added all working items to the spawner that were used in levels

Modding:
- Many bug fixes. See the full change log (link above) for details
- Many new script APIs
- Several small improvements to the editor

If you find any bugs, please email a full description along with your system specs to bugs@wolfire.com

1.3.1 Change log:

• Fixed a crash when launching levels that don't have loading screen tips (Lugaru story levels, Versus/Arena/Sandbox levels, a few Overgrowth story levels, and most Workshop mod levels)
  

The 1.3 update for Overgrowth is now available.
https://youtu.be/qaFvVzrcZ6M
In this update, we added better controller support, and support for language mods.

Controllers now work in menus, and can be rebound inside the game instead of having to hand edit the config file. You can also rebind controls for each of the players, when using the local multiplayer or split screen support.

To show off the new language localization support, we've added a mod that uses Google Translate to add support for a few different languages.

We've also made many bug fixes, some performance optimizations, and a bunch of improvements to the editor and to mod scripting.

We added a lot of modding features to hotspots, which should allow modders to make modding tools that are much easier to use. Hotspots now support linking through the editor, and support custom GUIs.

Changelog:

.2.1

Bug fixes:
- Updated Steam API DLLs. This may fix some compatibility issues

1.2.2

Bug fixes:
- Fix performance bug when Steam is running at same time as game (for some people this is as big as a 30% performance boost)
- Fixes to several Therium-2 levels
- Fix to functionality in character XML
- Removed unused SDL game controller haptic subsystem initialization (fixes crash on Launch on Linux)
- Make error non-fatal when failing to fully initialize a detected game controller

Note: 1.2.2 hotfix will be out tomorrow. Had to roll it back due to an unforseen crash issue when people didn't have workshop mods installed.

Known issues

There is an issue for some people where you try to launch the game and both the game and Steam crash. We're still investigating the cause of this, but we believe this is due to the Steam shader pre-cache feature.

To work around this:

With the new 1.2 patch, it's time to start a map jam!

Starting on the 18th of March, anyone who would like to participate has two weeks to create a map with the level editor using the theme given to them.

The theme of the map jam is Protagonist Dies At The End

The deadline is March 30th.

For tutorials on how to create a map in the level editor, check here:

• Youtube playlist
  
• Wolfire wiki page
  

We're back with another update for Overgrowth. This is the second large patch we've released since leaving early access.
https://youtu.be/zuAllyymbM4
This time we focused on AI and combat improvements on hardcore and expert difficulty settings.

Enemies are now more cautious, and their attacks are bit less predictable. They are better at evading jump kicks, and will roll away when they see them coming.

We've also reduced the attack magnet, and made the maximum shoulder-throw distance shorter. These make it harder to land hits (especially the jump kick).

Last, cats are a bit more tactical about throwing their off-hand weapon. They use to just throw it at random times. Now they throw it to intercept jump kicks, when you're running away, and when you're far away from them.

We've also made many bug fixes, some performance optimizations, and a bunch of improvements to the editor and to mod scripting.

Changelog:
Here's a summary of all the changes in the 1.2 release. The points listed here are just a summary of all the changes. You can find the full change log here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1P3LbKGFhbj5-wv6akSjnmBxxGVskLq-BB6wiPm8wjBA/edit?usp=sharing

- Disabled attack “magnet” in anything but "casual" mode
- Made AI roll away from jump kicks

- Made shoulder throw require you to be closer at higher difficulty levels
- Made cat offhand throwing more fair

Performance:
- Improved script performance of ragdolled NPCs

Reliability:
- Added better error messages for many game launch failures

- Fixed error when showing nav mesh on OSX
- Improved non-english language file system support
- Fixed some problems with texture atlas bleeding when texture sizes changed (decals, mostly)

Modding/editor:

- Fixed several editor bugs with grouped objects

Overgrowth story:

- Made it impossible to slide up fences on Prologue

Known issues
- There is an issue for some people where you try to launch the game and Steam crashes. We're still investigating the cause of this, but the known work-around is to launch the game from the install folder. There is a troubleshooting thread here that might help you: http://steamcommunity.com/app/25000/discussions/0/1699416432424801049/
- There is a known performance issue when Steam is running. You can try quitting out of Steam and launching the game from the install folder, and might get a performance boost. We're looking into a fix for this issue as well.

Happy Holidays! We're pleased to announce Overgrowth 1.1, on sale for 40% off until January 4th. Along with many performance improvements and bug fixes, it features an officially-remastered version of Therium 2, a total conversion by Constance P.
https://youtu.be/AXMWDSU1ZSo
Constance has worked on this story over the course of two or three years, and created more than 40 levels, including branching paths, multiple endings, an entirely new story, and deep background lore. Since the launch of the Overgrowth story in October, the Wolfire team has been working with Constance to improve Therium 2 and make it easier and better for players to access.

Constance added several new levels to the beginning to introduce the story more smoothly, and completely remade or revised a number of others. Together we built a new menu and save system that makes it easy to keep track of progress through the branching campaign. We also went through most of the levels to overhaul the lighting and visuals, so that they look as good or even better than the original Overgrowth levels, while keeping performance and framerate in mind.

Therium2 gives the player a lot of freedom, and doesn't hold their hand much with hints and checkpoints, so I would recommend playing through the original Overgrowth story first to make sure you have mastered the controls and mechanics.

Like the Overgrowth story, Therium-2 was made with moddability in mind, so it'll also include new assets made by Rolands and Jackie, made available in the editor. There are also several new hotspots and scripts that anyone can use for their own levels.

Changelog:
Here's a summary of all the changes in the 1.1 release. The points listed here are just a summary of all the changes. You can find the full change log here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vh79v7PBLamjsoM2IgY_A8fHrP1ozBg66f4fgDnMMBQ/edit?usp=sharing

Another blog post up. Big change log, and status on Beta 5 / 6:

New blog post up. New change log and a brief update on milestone planning:
http://blog.wolfire.com/2017/08/Previous-Week-in-Overgrowth---Mid-August

This time in our highlight series we show the Weapon Spawner Mod by DoctorGester: https://youtu.be/9xSCxinCW_U

Here's our change log for the last month. Some of these changes will make it into Beta 5, and you can always see all of our changes in the nightly "internal_testing" build:

http://blog.wolfire.com/2017/08/Previous-month-in-Overgrowth---early-August

If you want to try out internal_testing, be warned that it can be unstable, and cause crashes or strange behavior that you might not see in full Beta releases. It is an automatic nightly build of the game, and we cannot run a full test pass on it every day.

Library -> right click Overgrowth -> Properties -> Betas tab -> switch from "NONE" to "internal_testing".


I also forgot to post early July's blog post here, so here's a link to that as well:

General improvements/bug fixes
- Put nav meshes in their own directory so it's harder to File -> Load a non-level file on accident

- Fixed some memory allocation and initialization issues

Known issues: Lugaru campaign progress saving isn’t working correctly on OSX. We plan to release a hotfix for this issue some time next week.

Here we are again with an update on our Overgrowth progress. There's a huge change log this time, including many gameplay and graphics changes, and some details about what we're working on in the new Overgrowth campaign.

http://blog.wolfire.com/2017/06/Overgrowth-Progress-Late-June-2017

Note that all these changes are available to anyone who wants to play them early. Open your Game Library -> right click Overgrowth -> Properties -> Betas tab -> switch from "NONE" to "internal_testing". This is our nightly build, and is not guaranteed to be stable, but always contains the latest additions to the game.

If you want to play the new campaign early, and you don't mind spoilers, it's accessible under Top Bar -> File -> Open Campaign Art Pass -> First item in that list.

This time in our mod highlight series we show the Bow and Arrow Mod by Gyrth: https://youtu.be/4Jd3i7xrYlY

You can get the mod here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=855413136

As a thank you to all the amazing modders in the Wolfire community, we're creating a series of mod highlight videos showcasing some of the awesome mods currently available.

First up is the First Person Mod by The Turbo Turnip: https://youtu.be/2F_fK-fUFjo

Our last two weeks have been a bit slower than usual, due to many factors (people out sick, broken build servers, big workshop release to support). We will be back up to full speed next week.

Still didn't sit around idle, though! Here's an update on progress:

http://blog.wolfire.com/2017/05/Overgrowth-Progress-Mid-May

To celebrate the public launch of Steam Workshop integration for Overgrowth, the game is going on a 30% discount for 1 week starting now until Wed. May 17th.



Overgrowth has an amazing modding community and we wanted to be sure to make it easy for everyone to share their works of art with each other on steam.

Check out the details here: https://youtu.be/Q41KxorJ5YQ

If you've purchased Overgrowth you should check out the Overgrowth Steam Workshop: http://steamcommunity.com/app/25000/workshop/

If you haven't purchased Overgrowth yet, do it now before the sale ends.

Feels good for the weekly post to actually happen after only one week!

Today Overgrowth is now in BETA with a full single player Lugaru campaign, and many other features. Check it out now on Steam Early Access! We're also doing a limited time discount to celebrate - 27% off Overgrowth's normal price.

Here's a video we made to announce the occasion:
https://youtu.be/7GvKeyvvmu4
Also here's a quick image of a wolf killed with a knife in the new Lugaru Campaign!


A more detailed feature summary of Overgrowth's Beta is below:

- Fully re-imagined Lugaru campaign story mode in the Phoenix engine
- Local multiplayer if you have a keyboard mouse and a controller, or 2 controllers
- Gameplay-enhancing use of ragdoll physics, with skeletal impacts and damage simulation
- Enemy AI that adapts to your attacks, and group combat behavior that rewards choosing a stealth approach, or skillfully taking on a few at a time
- Simple installation of community mods using the SUMLauncher application (which you can find from the Wolfire Blog)
- Extensive modding support, with a realtime in-game editor and lightning-fast hot-loading when editing scripts
- Skeletal/procedural animation blends (as seen in Davidâ

This is a really big update, adding a *full campaign mode* to the game (:cheers:). The campaign is a fully re-imagined version of our other rabbit game, Lugaru.
