Announcing our new title, Fera: The Sundered Tribes!

Hello hello, I know it's been awhile, thank you for your continued support and being a wonderful community!
We've been heads down for 2 years working away on this new title, and I'm so glad we can finally start talking about Fera!

Yes it's a 3D action RPG but in typical Massive Damage style we had to add our own unique twist to this genre. The village building and villagers in the game are a core element in the game loop, really giving players a sense of leading their tribe and making meangingful lasting changes in the game world.

Check out the teaser trailer that premiered on IGN's Opening Night Live post-show on Gamescom:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GhFBLoUC_E


And if you can, Please Wishlist Fera, it's the best way to help support our development, thank you!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2469200/Fera_The_Sundered_Tribes/

We'll see you in the Fera discussions, we'll do our best to answer any questions.

Thank you,
The Massive Damage team

The Precursor Legacy DLC is OUT TODAY!

Commanders!

I am sending a distress signal of the highest magnitudes to your battlestations! We have detected a strange presence of an unearthly megabehemoth entity after uncovering these ancient plans to what seems like.. a buildable precursor ship?! Whatever it is, we need to react fast and use the necessary means to take down these monstrosities before they wipe out the rest of our star fleets! As always, the crew is standing by awaiting your orders..Commander.


http://store.steampowered.com/app/782270/Halcyon_6_The_Precursor_Legacy/

DLC Features
You want the good news or the bad news first? Good news: you closed a Chruul portal, congratulations, no more Chruul spawn ruining your day. Bad news: the damage has already been done. The weakened dimensional elasticity of your galaxy has allowed other strange creatures to somehow leak into this dimension. And some are big enough to swallow entire fleets. Good thing you found an ship schematic unlike anything you’ve seen before, hidden away in the depths of Halcyon 6’s data archives.

*NOTE*: Old save games will not see the DLC content. A new game start is required to experience the DLC.

CELESTIAL BEHEMOTHS

  • Hunt and eradicate 5 different species of Celestial Behemoths to obtain Precursor artifacts
  • Upgrade your Precursor ship using the collected artifacts
  • Hunt and eradicate 5 ancient Behemoth Elders for powerful trophies and lore
  • Boost the power of your fleet by equipping Elder trophies onto your ships


PRECURSOR STARSHIP
  • Start your battle against the Chruul on the right foot by adding the Precursor ship to your fleet
  • Upgrade your Precursor ship all the way to TIER 6!
  • Unique New Precursor powers can reduce enemy resistances to make combos easier Hunt and eradicate 5 different species of Celestial Behemoths to obtain Precursor artifacts
  • Upgrade your Precursor ship using the collected artifacts
  • Hunt and eradicate 5 ancient Behemoth Elders for powerful trophies and lore
  • Boost the power of your fleet by equipping Elder trophies onto your ships


PRECURSOR STARSHIP
  • Start your battle against the Chruul on the right foot by adding the Precursor ship to your fleet

Dev Log v1.4.1.0 - Ur-Admirax difficulty + Art book



Greetings Commanders!

We're back from Gamescom and have some awesome news this week in terms of content for you all! I’ll start first with this one...

We have added a NEW difficulty for you guys - WARNING: not for the faint of heart! Ur-Admirax is the new difficulty level above Grand Admiral! Can you handle the heat? Or will it be the end of your fleet?! We have also rebalanced ground combat encounters to be tougher further into the campaign - so say a prayer for your fellow green shirts!

Pixel art has always been something our entire team has been passionate about, and we are so excited to share with you the art behind Halcyon 6 from its early stages of pre-production to our now in-game final art! Our artbook contains 49 pages of pixelated goodness designed for you by our artists and content designers. This art book was a previously timed exclusive just for Kickstarter backers, but now made available for purchase to further support our dev work on Halcyon 6!

The Art of Halcyon 6 can be purchased here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/706910/Halcyon_6_Lightspeed_Edition__Artbook/

BUG FIXES:


  • Fixed bug where difficulty levels were not affecting difficulty of ground combat encounters
  • Ghost Pepper Bomb no longer removes Blinded status effect
  • Delayed Recovery now has limited uses
  • Fixed bug with some space monsters having the wrong class type
  • Fixed various typos in scripts and tutorial
  • Fixed bug with XP upgrades for new officers


Last but not least.. We’d like to thank you all for your support of Halcyon 6 and hope that you love Ur-Admirax as much as we do! Feel free to share some action-packed Ur-Admirax screenshots and videos on social media and tag us with the hashtag #halcyon6game #uradmirax so we can retweet you :)

DEVLOG: Early reviews and Modding Guide!



Greetings Commanders!

Early reviews of Lightspeed Edition are in:

"Overall, Halcyon 6: Lightspeed Edition is still an amazing game.. Theres so much to do in this game that it is ridiculous to figure out where to start and stop, and I dont believe you could ever get bored with it if you keep exploring the options available to you. This is definitely a game you need to buy."
- Score: 9.5 -
BleedingCool.com

"All in all, if you're a fan of turn-based strategy titles, excel in resource management, adore space-based games, and reminisce 16-bit retro visuals in games, Halcyon 6: Lightspeed Edition is a game that you absolutely shouldn't miss out on."
- Score: 8.5 -
Neowin.net

"I love it, though it can be really complicated at times, Halcyon 6: Lightspeed Edition is a solid upgrade the the already stellar strategy/action game."
- Score: 7.6 -
EntertainmentBuddha.com

"Whether youre a fan of those classic JRPGs that we mentioned throughout the article, or you love that deep tactical allure which reels you in every time, Halcyon 6: Lightspeed Edition is one game youll want to have in your gaming library and certainly one where youll be heavily invested in it for hours."
