Second Patch: Fixes and Free Camera
Hello there!
We've just made a new patch live. It shouldn't change anything in your ongoing saved games, but please do let us know if you spot anything.
We've included the option to launch the game with a free cam mode if you're into screenshot stuff. Beware it can and will break the game, so we've kept it to a command line option. Take a look in the readme.txt in the root for details, and then follow instructions on screen. It will allow you to capture nice panning video as well as super-high res screen dumps.
Patch bits:
- Fix Traveller achievement. (Jim's fault! Sorry.)
- Make all zones/weapons/missions achievements unlock when loading save games.
- Make rank achievements unlock when attaining any higher rank (so, e.g., hitting rank 3 will also grant the rank 1 achievement if you don't already have it).
- Reverted to non-exclusive fullscreen. We tried this out because a few people had requested it and exclusive was slightly faster, but it proved too annoying. Unfortunately because it's a build-only function in Unity we can't offer it as a game option.
- Added difficulty selection. This is a bit of a work in progress as it only currently changes the damage taken by the player. In future we might also look at imposing different behaviour "personalities" on these guys depending on difficulty options. Beware Easy is VERY EASY :) Difficulty settings can be applied in your current game using the escape menu.
- Added tourist camera option (see readme.txt in game folder root).
- Included lorebook PDF in game folder for ytour convenience - this is still in the manual for the Steam page, too.
- Fixed some scoped weapons inverting axes when zoomed.
- Dropguns now take damage on their wings.
- Maze achievement timer no longer keeps counting if you transfer to a new drone from the maze.
- Increased size/legibility of contextual help.
- Hiding HUD no longer changes overall game colour.
- Added readme file to explain tourist mode.
That's all for now. We're going to be adding more stuff in the coming weeks and should have news about Other Things soon!
PS: if you are interested in development stuff we have a new devblog up
over here.
cheers,
-BR
[ 2017-04-27 12:00:51 CET ] [ Original post ] The Signal From Tölva is a first-person game of exploration and combat, set in a beautiful, hand-crafted, hand-painted sci-fi world.

The Story So Far
In the distant future, star-faring robotic factions sift through the ruins of an ancient civilisation. On the highlands of Tölva, beneath the shadow of abandoned war machines, they found something.
Was it the source of the signal you were so interested in? And will the trail lead to enlightenment, or something more sinister? You hijack a drone and you begin the search for yourself.

The Signal From Tölva is a journey into a wild, weird science fiction landscape, filled with danger and beauty: you must survive terrible hazards, navigate through impossible spaces, and fight an ongoing battle to control this haunted, blighted world. Explore, ponder strange texts, and find tranquillity between the battles. You will make use of a range of powerful tools to overcome your enemies and uncover secrets: hack robots to battle alongside you, equip powerful weapons, and detonate savage defence systems.
Fight, explore, and solve the mystery of The Signal From Tölva!
