Hello, everyone,

On behalf of the team here at 1C, we are happy to announce our collaboration with indie developer Kalla Gameworks to bring their upcoming 4X grand strategy, The Pegasus Expedition, to PC this year. Aspiring Fleet Commanders will soon be able to get a little taste of what it has to offer, as we can confirm a playable demo will be available for you to enjoy during the upcoming Steam Next Fest, starting June 13, 2022!

For now, you can at least take a look at the new The Pegasus Expedition trailer:

[previewyoutube=in1bLfzbgHk;full][/previewyoutube]

And if you like what you see, go ahead and wishlist the game, so you don't miss any news about The Pegasus Expedition!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1521070/The_Pegasus_Expedition/

The Pegasus Expedition is a story-driven sci-fi grand strategy game set in a key moment for humankinds survival. Facing an overwhelming threat at home, humanity sends an expedition to the Pegasus Galaxy in a desperate attempt to find a refuge for the population of Earth, only to find themselves in the middle of an interstellar war they inadvertently started.

As you lead one of these fleets, your mission soon transitions from exploration to governance, conquest, and eventually a fight for survival. Players will experience a challenging story where nothing is self-evident and every decision will have its consequences.

Building on the legacy of the grand strategy genre, The Pegasus Expedition adds a strong narrative side to the classic 4X-gameplay which involves managing your diplomatic ties, armies, economy and scientific development.

We encourage you to come to the Steam Discussions or join our Discord server, just as the developer's, we will be happy to hear from you!

Hello everyone,

The Deep Sky Derelicts: Definitive Edition is now available on Steam! The Definitive version includes the base Deep Sky Derelicts game together with its two DLCs - New Prospects and Station Life - for the price of 24,99 USD / 24,99 EUR. Since its Early Access launch, the game has been expanded and enhanced with fresh content and multiple new features, which now creates a perfect moment to get the game in case you haven't done so already.

Also, for those of you who already own the game, the new update that came out today will enhance your DSD experience. Even if you don't own the DLCs, you will still get a number of base game features and elements updated, including:

• controller support
  
• additional customization options such as meta-unlocks (e.g. trophy helmets and alternate starting gear for consecutive playthroughs)
  
• improved combat feedback (e.g. win celebration sequences)
  
• reworked and polished UI
  
• expanded tutorial tips
  
• all-round balance overhaul
  
• multiple AI tweaks
  
• revisited and enhanced Arena mode (for DLC owners only)
  
• numerous bug fixes
  
• additional Steam achievements
  
• miscellaneous performance tweaks, e.g. reduced disk space consumption
  

Hello Scavengers,

we have got a little announcement to make! After all the updates and two DLC, we decided to release a Definitive Edition of Deep Sky Derelicts which includes said updates and DLCs.

If you haven't played the game yet but were thinking about getting it, now is the basically the best time!

Also (we believe some of you may be interested), the game is coming to consoles! Namely Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. So if you felt like taking DSD on the road or playing it from your couch on TV, now you can!

Here is the DSD Definitive Edition trailer:

[previewyoutube=PIPly7r7CHw;full][/previewyoutube]

Greetings scavengers,

we have a new update fresh from the space-oven!

[h3]Here is the full 1.3.3 changelog:[/h3]

Changes:

• Reduced Spiker damage and armor gain per level a small amount.
  
• Slightly increased initiative gain per level for Alzarus (Foul Practitioner) and Harkeon (Power Failure)
  
• Rockmorph uses Magnetic Interference and Rock Counter more flexibly.
  
• Slight adjustments and fixes to Cobra Guard, Cobra Assassin and Cobra Matriarch behaviours. For example assassins were uncharacteristically noble and refused to use "Cloaking" and "Sneak Attack" cards. Made all 3 them use their cards a bit more flexibly.
  
• Red Mist (Skink Acolyte): Reduced initial damage buff from +20% to +15% and the additional damage buff per attack performed from +20% to +10%. Also fixed it giving ENERGIZE 1 on crit for longer than intended.
  
• Barbed Orb (Skink Acolyte): Added a critical effect that adds +2 turns to the effect's duration.
  
• Skink Acolyte: Adjusted AI. For example will use "Boost Vigor" more often on allies, won't use "Drain Strength" multiple times on the same target and will only use "Red Mist" and "Acid Infusion" as a last resort if no allies left in combat.
  
• Skink: AI will only use Skink Call as a last resort if only one Skink is left in combat.
  
• Staff Strike (Skink Acolyte): Increased stun chance from 20% to 30%.
  
• Drain Strength (Skink Acolyte): Improved duration from 1 turn to 3 turns. Added duration to description.
  
• Skink: Made them a bit less likely to focus on one target with acid attacks, prevented them from going invisible with "Blend" when they are alone and they should refrain from using "Skink Call" if one is already active.
  
• Updated Piratech AI. Won't use "Oversee" if solo or with just one ally, if multiple Piratechs present they won't stack the use of "Oversee" or "Give 'em Hell" cards, made "Release a Drone" higher priority, will not use shield restoring abilities if solo unless it's the only card they have and also fixed the AI not using "Blinding Flare" card at all. Such blindness, much wow. While at it reduced the crit damage of Showstopper to 200% from 300% because those 90+ damage crits can be pretty obnoxious.
  

• Improved the accuracy of the indicated energy cost for moving multiple tiles.
  
• Ensure that quest loot from combat rewards is always received even when pressing Leave on the reward screen.
  
• Fixed station encounter state not being fully saved in some situations. Existing encounters should get fixed on load, but it's not guaranteed that they work perfectly in all cases; any future encounters should be fine.
  
• Fixed wrong title for Enhanced Crafting details on the research screen.
  
• Fixed a script error in Banger/Death Toll.
  
• Fixed an alien machine encounter not going anywhere in some cases.
  
• Fixed issue where a random NPC encounter could be generated with invalid dialogue.
  
• Positive Side-Effects (Chemist): Fixed health buff option not displaying the text correctly when applied.
  
• Fixed being able to skip quest dialogue via ambushing.
  
• Fixed Cobra Assassins not having any sound for Vulnerability Shot and Single Shot.
  
• Fixes towards the Widening the Perimeter habitation quest not having targets on the map.
  
• Added ship names to habitation quests in the mission log.
  
• Fixed Craft Supply not handling cards correctly if it was canceled without picking a card. Canceling it will also now count as a played card so that you can't replay it infinitely to find a specific card.
  
• Fixed issue where cards could be duplicated when recycled twice during the same turn.
  
• Seal of Betrayal: Fixed blocked quest progression if you killed all but Dogtooth and returned to Bennett.
  
• Fixed Hull Breach room condition showing "Low gravity" and added the actual description in there.
  
• Fixed socket locations sometimes not yielding Chip Socket required for Logomo to perform mental chip calibration.
  
• Skink Call (Skink): Affects Skink Acolyte now correctly.
  
• Boost Vigor (Skink Acolyte): Fixed it to correctly give Self: ENERGIZE 1 instead of 2 on critical.

Hello scavengers,

Get it NOW here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1189700/Deep_Sky_Derelicts__Station_Life/

Brand new DLC - Station Life as its name suggests, focuses on turning the station, your scavenger home and safe haven, into a livelier and more varied place to be, more useful and versatile hub of scavenging operations, and a more compelling experience overall.

The overhauled station brings new possibilities to further upgrade and customize your crew by crafting custom weaponry and equipment, re-training and neurally enhancing your squad members, and even changing their looks to your liking. The DLC also throws at you a handful of randomly generated but constantly challenging encounters and timed events that involve other station dwellers and may easily catch you off guard while always putting either your combat prowess, your luck or your business acumen to a test. To top it all off, the local bar now offers you a bunch of high-profile bounty contracts to pursue during your derelict raids for unique trophies and hefty coin rewards. Oh, and there is a new recruit class, the Inventor, waiting for you there!





Station Life Features:

• Give junk new life in the Crafting Workshop by turning old equipment into a new, powerful, tailored gear
  
• Character-augmenting Experimental Surgery Department and Neural Reprocessing Facility add-ons introduce more customization options for the party
  
• Random station encounters like brawling with rival scavenger crews, bargaining with shady dealers, and fending off raidering intruders make base management even more exciting
  
• New side missions to complete and a bunch of new NPC encounters to discover and enjoy
  
• A new playable class: Inventor - a sturdy, melee-combat oriented character that lacks shields but applies unique health regeneration abilities on the battlefield to compensate
  
• Six brand-new nasty enemy types of varied power and nature
  
• New equipment, bounty contracts, station environments, and more!

Hi everyone,

first of all we would like to apologize for not communicating clearly enough which features announced as part of "New Prospects" DLC are also available to the owners of the base game as a free update not requiring DLC purchase. From your comments on DSD discussion forums and your recent reviews we have concluded that there must be a lot of misconceptions about this subject. Therefore we would now like to clarify it once and for all.

The following newly added game features and elements are available to all owners of the base game free of charge:

Exploration updates:

• Focused Scan to reveal all objects and activity in a remote location
  
• Enemy groups respawn on derelicts, including previously visited ships
  

• Left-side consumables menu on the scanner screen
  
• New buttons for Normal and Focused Scans on the scanner screen
  
• Easy-to-spot room condition indicator on the scanner screen
  

• New environmental combat actions that are usable in exchange for energy during fights, as an alternative to playing regular cards, and can significantly increase your tactical options in combat.
  

Hello everyone,

Changelog 1.2.1:

• Fixed game not starting on some computers because of a Steam initialization problem.

=====

Thank you for all the reported issues so far!


New:

- As a reminder: New features will generally only be available in newly generated ships during Early Access; existing saves and already visited ships might not have new stuff.
- Variations added for some main quests. Things may not proceed as you might expect on different playthroughs.
- Difficulty selection for new games: Normal or Hardcore. Hardcore is the previous one-save-only mode, Normal allows free saving and loading. In Normal mode, the previous save can also be loaded from the game over screen when the crew is killed.
- New Necrotic enemies added: Gutser, Long Dead (ship levels 1+) and , Banger (levels 3+).
- New Scourge enemies added: Drudger (ship levels 1+) and Mortifier (levels 3+)
- Rooms in some ships can be blocked by debris. Clearing debris takes energy if you don't have a Scavenging Kit (see below).
- Scan Detail research upgrades now have two levels.
- Watch out for traps in tier 2 ships. Scanner upgrades can detect traps, and Tech and Scavenging skills can also help with spotting them at the last second.
- Some sections of derelicts can now be locked. You will have to find a console to unlock them.
- New equipment in the shop:
* Power Generators and Field Scanners are now combined into the Power Generator. Field scanners are no longer available in new saves or after a shop inventory refresh.
* Scavenging Kit can be used to disarm traps safely or to clear debris. A single kit has 5 charges.
* Hazard Protection negates harmful room effects for 10 moves in exploration. Energy Surge benefits will still be available.
* Extraction Beacons can be used to immediately teleport to the nearest landing zone. They require a lot of power and thus must be used in a room powered by a generator or Energy Surge.
- Save slot UI has been overhauled to better fit the artistic style.


Changes:

- All characters and rival scavengers are immune to Lethal hits.
- Waiting one turn takes 5 energy (half the movement cost).
- Temporary Cover: Using another card refreshes the duration of the cover.
- Medic/Pain Killer Additive and First to Aid abilities stack instead of creating new effects.
- Reactionary abilities such as Retaliation or Flame Guard don't act on other reaction attacks anymore, i.e. only one reaction is generally processed. This is to prevent silly, confusing and/or broken interactions between abilities.
- Slightly increased XP requirements for levels: level 2 requires 150 more XP, level 3 200 more and all subsequent levels after 100 more.
- Slightly reduced the following modifiers' values across all item levels: +X% Damage, +X% Evasion, +X% Recycle, +X% Lethal, +X% Maximum Shields, -X% Damage resistance on hit and +X Focus.
- "Stagger"-modifier has a chance of spawning with higher than 1 strength from item level 4 onwards.
- Significantly reduced Energy Efficiency values across all item levels. It was too easy to reach a point where energy was no longer an issue.
- Improved "Knockback"-modifier's (aka -X initiative on hit for 1 turn) upper strength values at all item levels.
- Added a chance for "Ability lock"-modifier (aka Disable X cards for Y turns on hit) to spawn with 2 strength at item levels 4, 5 and 6.
- Adjusted "Reduce armor"-modifier's values to scale more evenly towards high levels.


Fixes:

- Fixed Shield Expert/Team Shield Amplifier upgrades not being applied to all crew members until the next combat encounter. The shield bonus is also now combined into the final max shield value instead of changing the displayed shield core values.
- Fixed Radiated rooms not preventing shield recharge after combat. Shields will be recharged after moving to a non-radiated tile.
- Wrap status icon text to avoid wiiiiiiiiiiiide popups.
- Reactionary attacks such as Bruiser/Retaliation are now shown in separate comic scenes instead of overriding the first attack.
- Fixed Number of Attacks and Bonus Burst Hits stats not working properly on some equipment.
- Fixed Shield Boost not rounding up the value for the status icon text.
- Fixed Shockwave applying knockback/stagger even if the attack didn't hit.

- Fixed bug that could cause incorrect initiative values being shown for summoned units (the actual value was correct).
- Fixed Master of Robots/Sentry Turret stats not matching the ability description.
- Fixed a typo which could make a rival tracker have a blank white portrait.
- Fixed neutral scavengers refusing to continue fighting after the player has retreated and goes back to them.
- Fixed conversation with more hostile scavengers not initiating combat with the relevant option after a successful mental check.
- Fixed combat bug that could happen on an out-of-energy retreat.
- Fixed Shield Manipulation freezing combat when used on a target without shields.
- Fixed occasional script bug with Chemist/Stronger Substances.
- Fixed a bug where an enemy could freeze when failing to play a card while affected by Confusion, Fear or Stun.
- Fixed the attacking unit showing up on the defender side in a comic panel when an area attack misfires.
- Fixed Tinker/Kinetic Generator gaining an absurd amount of energy from lethal hits.
- Fixed Tinker/Scrounger card picker staying visible when the unit was stunned.
- Fixed Tinker/Scrounger working while Overloaded.
- Fixed Bruiser/Retaliation showing incorrect title and animation for the retaliatory attack.
- Fixed status icons occasionally lingering on screen even after the effect expired.
- Fixed Medic/Pain Killer Additive not granting health to all affected units when buffing multiple allies.
- Fixed Medic/Medical Diligence giving buffs for cards played by allies; it was intended to work only when the medic plays a medical card.
- Fixed room backgrounds sometimes getting flipped when entering combat.
- Fixed Tracker/Mark Target not rounding gained focus.
- Craft Supply can now be canceled without losing a turn.
- Fixed AI sometimes targeting invisible units.
- Fixed duration indicator color on Damage Resistance debuff icons.
- Fixed character stat panel popping up when targeting Disrupt by clicking on a unit portrait.

KNOWN ISSUES:
- There are some problems with multiple displays. We will have to perform an engine upgrade to fix some of those and that was not possible for this release, so we’ll investigate these bugs in the near future. In the meanwhile, you might want to try some of these startup options as workarounds: -window-mode borderless, -adapter 0 (or 1 or 2 depending on your monitor setup), -show-screen-selector.
- Some card sounds are missing.
- Card layout in combat can get slightly messed up in some situations.

CHANGES:
- Character levels are now capped to 7.
- Five new ability specialization branches available at level 4.
- Tier 2 derelicts can now be unlocked by finding at least 2 location data from tier 1 derelicts and visiting the Sub-Governor.
- 4 new quests.
- 12 new rare Illustrious mods can be found, each with its own unique effect. Other new extensions and loot drops have also been added.
- Research Workshop opened on Deep Sky Station. The workshop offers permanent scanning and energy upgrades.
- The medical bay now offers partial heal options for bold but economically challenged scavengers. Reviving is now cheaper and heals the unit to 1 HP, leaving you in charge of further treatment. Other medical costs have also been slightly reduced.
- The starmap shows the last visited derelict and the visited/unvisited/main quest completed status of derelicts.
- New derelict layouts, some with multiple unlockable landing zones.
- Map icons and colors have been overhauled.
- The scanned area now gradually shrinks and disappears, with research upgrades available for both range and duration.
- New enemies: Shocklings, Alpha Skinks, Preservers, Pyronics and scary Triumvirate squads.
- Arena extended with new fights and rebalanced.
- Rooms in derelicts can contain anomalies such as magnetic interference or low gravity, with either helpful or harmful effects both in and out of combat.
- Energy changes: Everything has been multiplied by 10 (base energy is now 1000, scanning takes 50 energy) to make energy efficiency stats/upgrades more meaningful.
- Crew shield/health status is now visible on the map screen.
- Running out of energy does not result in an instant game over anymore. Instead, life support, shields and weapons are disabled and scavengers start losing health, giving you a chance to crawl back to safety.
- Experience gain adjustments; higher level enemies now give more XP than before and lower level enemies give less.
- Some enemies can resist stuns and lethal hits.
- Help popups added for Boost and Retreat.
- New items are marked in the inventory.
- New cards and comic panel effects.
- Fixed some skill bonuses not working correctly.
- Fixed Power Generator revealing unseen map tiles.

Here are the three stories:

Prolapse_Reaper:

I was deep in the first Derelict with my healthy team of three, geared up throughout many encounters and searches. It went really smooth. Spare batteries (30 energy each) in the backpack - no need to double back. Was low on energy, still decided to try to clear the wrecked ship in one go. Upon using first battery - instead of 30 I only got 2 energy. This totally shocked me - was sure it must be some kind of a bug. Used another one, then another - ended up spending all and getting a total of 12 energy. MY team was thrown in a panicked run to the shuttle, just to die somewhere along the way. Next game I figured that I used wrong mouse button to 'use' batteries. And now three brave Derelict explorers are dead because of my mistake. Never again was the game so smooth, with awesome loot dropping on my team like christmas gifts. I think that upon seeing my deed, the gods of loot have forsaken me...

Smands:

"The gunfire came suddenly from the darkness. Johannson reactively hit the deck, her medical tool scattered away on the floor in the process. Dirt and dust took to the air from the impact. Me and Cargyle turned around to face our threat, our shields pulsing from the heavy barrage of bullets.
Three scavengers, Rim-sector scumbags, stood in a tight formation. Only flickers of their armors could be seen in the glaring muzzle flashes. The sound bullets flying and casings hitting the marble floor echoed in the derelict halls.
"I can take them boss!", Cargyle yelled. I could clearly hear the sound of excitement in his voice.
"I`m counting on it!", I replied while i checked up on Johannson. She was prepping her medical tool, her sidearm drawn and ready.

A sudden silence filled the room, followed by a whirring sound. I looked at Cargyle in horror.
"Cargyle, be carefu...." The room was filled by a storm of bullets from the ramped up gatling cannon. I quickly diverted power from my shield to Cargyles`.
Cargyle roared in a frenzy, his power shields flickering like a strobe light. Raising his power maul, he charged the pirates. Johannson fired a stim towards him for good measure.

We could hear his shields faltering as he slammed his maul into the trio of men. The shattering sound of armor and bones broke the gunfire and finished in a crescendo by the smashing of the marble tiles. And then, silence.
Johannson ran towards Cargyle, and I followed suit. Cargyle stood upright, his maul planted in the floor next to the mangled corpses of the pirates.
"That... was a good fight...", Cargyle said in a whisper as his body failed him. Blood poured from his armor.
Johannson tried to steady him, but as much as his heavy build was a boon, this time it was an inconvenience. "He`s bleeding out!", Johannson yelled, trying to stop the bleeding. "We need to get him to the ship".

It was an exhausting trip to the ship, our energy supply almost drained. Cargyle mumbling something about alchohol and women all the way.
Now, as I steer the ship towards The Station, we all pray to whatever divine being holds control over our fate to save Cargyle. His team needs him"
