DLC Update Incoming And DetailsHey everyone!
Javy here. The first content update is nearly here. Plan is to have it out the door on January 29 for both Steam and Itch.io versions of Distress. As someone whos played a lot of DLC over the years, I find that my favorites are those that feel like natural extensions of the game in question, like how Artorias of the Abyss is essentially just another zone in Dark Souls or how the various episodes of Mass Effect 2 feel like theyre naturally woven into the games story.
With that in mind, Distress DLC updates will be similar. All of them will take place during the Nova-8 storyline. Every update will essentially turn one of the dead-end Game Over endings of Distress into an extensive branching path filled with more storylines, game overs, and tense situations. The first content pack is called Survive The Night. The update adds a new storyline with a surprise at the forefront of it and includes 10 endings.
As far as the next DLC goes, were eyeing a drop date of March update for content pack 2 (titled Bleak Orbit) and it will be quite different than anything youve played in Distress so far. Well shoot you all another update when the first DLC is live as well as instructions on how to access it.
Cheers.
[ 2019-01-23 02:11:31 CET ] [ Original post ] A fading distress signal from a space station that’s gone silent. A metropolis filled with dark secrets, death lurking in every alleyway. Welcome to Nova-8. Step into the boots of Demetria Barton, one of the galaxy’s greatest bounty hunters, and lead her team to a mysterious city in search of answers and riches.
Distress is a branching visual novel inspired by the likes of Silent Hill, Snatcher, and Mass Effect. Trapped in a city filled with deadly creatures and a ruthless militarized task force controlled by a shadowy administrator, you’ll have to use your wits and make tough decisions in order to survive. You’re responsible not just for your own life, but the lives of your crew as well. Make your choices. Live with the consequences.
Good luck, captain.
