Hi everyone! Sorry for bothering you with this on the EDGE page. We're just really proud of our latest (and last) game, the shooter/platformer RIVE, and we want to spread the word!

Besides updates, we've been working on RIVE's marketing recently. So far, we've reached a core group that's very enthusiastic (with a 95% positive rating here on Steam!), but we hope to find a broader audience in the coming months.

You can help us a lot by filling out the RIVE Marketing Questionnaire we've prepared. It doesn't matter whether you're familiar with RIVE, or have played it or not. We'd just like to get as much input as possible!

Hopefully this will give us some insights into how to talk about the game better. Completing the form should only take a few minutes, so don't hold back :-)

It also helps us if you share the above link with your friends and relatives. Thanks a bunch!

Two months after RIVE's release, we're pushing out a major update featuring Challenges, Battle Arenas and a new Normal campaign difficulty level. The update is released on Steam today and will be available for PS4 later this year. Also, as we've previously said, RIVE is Two Tribes' last game, and we felt that this would be a good time to give you a status update.

RIVE came out a little over two months ago, and it's been a wild ride. Players loved it, which is reflected in the amazing 95% "very positive" Steam user review score. Reviewers dug it too, calling it A heart attack inducing crazy nostalgia rollercoasterfeaturing Some of the most memorable moments in a shoot-em-up in years. It was The perfect combination of bullet hell and platformer and An awesome game from start to finish. All in all, A very serious candidate for the title Surprise Game of 2016!

We got totally addicted to watching people play RIVE on YouTube and Twitch, often late at night due to differing time zones. We saw people set unbelievable Speedrun times and even complete the entire Single-Credit Mode (without ever dying), something we didn't reallythink was possible!

Longevity

People are having a ton of fun with our final game, so it's no surprise that the feedback we get most often is: it should go on longer! We totally understand, especially as the existing extra modes (Speedrun and Single-Credit) focus on hardcore players who want to refine their RIVE skills.

For this update we wanted to add more real content, but new levels with the production value of the main campaign just weren't an option (more on that at the end of this post). Ultimately we found a great way to extend RIVE and provide more variety with the new Challenges and Battle Arenas.

Challenges has something new for you every day, in bronze, silver and gold variations. We challenge you to complete special tasks in familiar backdrops, with a cumulative difficulty level. Essentially, there will be something to do every time you return to RIVE.

Battle Arenas, on the other hand, offers endless fighting, begging the question just how long you could possibly survive. We've taken three popular scenes from the game and extended them forever or until you inevitably crash and burn. (Active Steam players were able to playtest this idea in the temporary Skywhale Survivor special mission.)

Difficulty

There's another oft-heard piece of feedback. While RIVE met our goal of making a hardcore game for fans of classic shooters and platformers, some people just find it too difficult. A few even called us sadistic! Although, to be fair, we also had a guy complaining the game was too easy

Many people told us RIVE is "the hardest game of the year", often as a compliment, but sometimes as a complaint too. Well, it's impossible to please everyone, and trying to do so will often result in something shapeless and bland. But let's just say that now that we've reached the hardcore, we want to make RIVE a bit more fun for all of you less hardcore players too.

We already tweaked the game's difficulty in earlier updates, but for v1.1 we've really gone in to polish some of the tougher parts. The in-game statistics helped us a lot as we could see where people died the most. On top of that, we added a Normal difficulty level to the campaign and separate missions.

We still feel Hard is the way RIVE is meant to be played, but for those who need it, Normal comes with stronger bullets, less damage from enemies and stronger health pick-ups.

Changelist

If you're curious, here's the full changelist for RIVE v1.1:

• CHG: Lots of difficulty tweaks in earlier missions, including increased field of view in some difficult areas


• CHG: Mission 1 extended


• ADD: Replaced the in-game Soft Mode with a Normal difficulty level, which is directly selectable from the main menu. (The teddy bear icon has left the building. Instead, you now get a star when you play on Hard. Because you're a star to us, geddit?)


• ADD: Daily Challenges (descriptions only in English for now), including new Shield pick-up, low-gravity condition and auto-rotating fire


• ADD: 3 endless Battle Arenas


• FIX: Secret pick-ups can be picked up again (sorry about that)


• DEL: Norris achievement (we replaced it with three Challenges achievements)


• CHG: Lots of small fixes

We’ve been relatively quiet lately, but we’ve been super busy visiting a number of expositions to demo RIVE. We’ve been to Gamescom, Tokyo Game Show, INDIGO and the EGX. In the meantime we obviously continued working on the game, as can be shown in the first official gameplay trailer! Enjoy!

Hi all!

A couple of months ago, we were contacted by a father who wanted to have some promotional materials of EDGE, to make a birthday present for his son Zias. Zias loves EDGE and he even built real-life versions of EDGE levels in LEGO.

To cut a long story short; unfortunately we didn't have any promotional materials, instead we invited Zias to come over to our office so he could build an EDGE level under the watchful eye of our designer Hessel. The end result is now part of the latest update of EDGE on Steam!

Hi all,

Five Dutch game developers, including Vanguard Games, Grendel Games, Vlambeer and Ronimo Games and Two Tribes, have teamed up to bring you some love in the form of an awesome deal! From amongst the windmills of the Dutch grasslands, they bring you the "From Holland with Love" pack:
