Hey everyone! Checking in for a super quick weekly update! Let's handle some paperwork and then jump into the development process!

Outbreak: The New Nightmare is leaving Early Access in January 2018!

As we announced a little while back, we're going to be departing Steam Early Access in January 2018! Outbreak and Outbreak: The New Nightmare have been in development now for well over two years and we're reaching a point where the latest title is fairly content complete. There will always be a bug or two hanging around and things may never be perfect, but the title has realized the vision I set out for it.
I'm announcing this as early in advance so people can buy the title now at the lower price point. When we leave Early Access, the price of the game will increase! So if you're looking to survive the nightmare and save some cash, make sure to buy it before we transition to a full product.

So what's been new on the development side?

I've been working hard to get through the hoops and finish the pieces for an Xbox One release of the title. Unfortunately, a lot of the work over the last two weeks has been specific to that version, so there's not a ton to show on the Steam side. But I wanted to keep everyone in the loop on where the time is being spent. I'm hoping to swing back around for a few more fixes here and there on the PC version prior to the transition to full release though. So stay tuned and keep submitting feedback!

And that's about it!

That's the thing about game development. Sometimes it results in big changes that are flashy and showy, and sometimes it's just developing necessary work to keep going. Stay tuned to hear about where we're heading next. Thank you to everyone who has been playing and submitting feedback. The last few patches have been fantastic and it's awesome to see the game continue to come together! ːsteamhappyː Thanks as always to Mr RSpeedy for some of the shots in this post!
