Release 1.1.3 - General Bug FixesThis update solves some crash bugs that were introduced in recent updates that may be related to engine updates.
We'd like to thank the community for detailed error messages and hope this resolves all remaining issues.
[ 2021-09-13 22:49:24 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.1.2 - Windows Bug FixesA bizarre condition existed on certain machines causing a crash at the beginning of Mission 4.
This should be resolved with this patch. This should only effect Windows.
[ 2021-07-12 22:36:45 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.1.1Release Notes:
1.) Re-adjusted ranking system by reducing penalties for taking damage & missed enemies making A-Ranks more attainable.
2.) Raised the point ceiling for D-Rank
3.) Adjusted/Rebalanced Boss behaviors, most notably the Mission 4 Boss (Shess)
4.) Fixed an error when setting the Cutscene Skip setting in Game Settings which caused the changes to only take effect on the next play session.
[ 2021-03-28 21:14:59 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.1.0 - Sky's End Update | Free DLC Now Live
1.1.0 SKY'S END UPDATE (RELEASE DATE 2019-07-23)
- EXPANSION - Beating the game (any ending) now unlocks Trophaeum Mode, an endless test of skill where you can truly show off your ace pilot skills.
- FEATURE - A new game setting that allows you to skip cut scenes for more rapid restarts while you're chasing a high score.
- FEATURE - Tons of new leaderboards where you can compete to have the best scores and fastest boss kills for each mission.
- ENHANCEMENT - Boss Difficulty has been softened. Physically colliding with the boss no longer results in instant kills. This was done to make completing missions more accessible to novice players without changing the score economy at the highest levels of play (it still kills your multiplier so truly high scores/ranks are not possible using that strategy).
- BUG - Updated engine version to fix v-sync/framerate issues on Linux
[ 2019-07-23 06:03:11 CET ] [ Original post ] Linux Compatibility ExpansionAfter a lot of effort and some excellent insight from Sylvain Bertrand (thank you) we are now able to support a broader range of linux distributions with a few simple modifications/launch profiles.
We will be integrating these into the code/steam store as time allows but here is a summary of what we found:
- It is highly recommended that you set your monitor's refresh rate to 60hz. We are working on a code fix for this and our engine vendor has a ticket open that should resolve it shortly but in the meantime, this change will make the game speed playable.
- The game's main directory needs to be added to the linux loader lookup paths. This can be accomplished thusly:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH %command%
A startup script containing the following will make this automatic:
#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec ./risksystem
This would be added as a file named something like risksystem.sh and executed. This launch option will be added to the next production release if not sooner.
- It was discovered that one of the major points of failure was an attempt to send anonymous data to the game engine provider. The curl implementation was not in the location expected leading to a hard crash. This is no longer present.
We are very excited to have broadened the Linux support for the game and hope the community can try it out and let us know if these solutions work. We know there is more to do and as long as people are trying to play Risk System, we'll do what we can to allow that to happen.
Enjoy!

[ 2019-05-22 19:52:00 CET ] [ Original post ] Anime Central Updates
We had a wonderful weekend at Anime Central showing Risk System and engaging with players. The response was overwhelmingly positive.
But, time to get back to reality. A few bugs were discovered during three days of play (including a sweet custom cabinet by @MooncatArcade). The core gameplay mechanics are steady but some of the bells and whistles need some polish.
We expect to release version 1.0.3 within the next week which should solve several high score, stability, configuration and ranking bugs. Full release notes will be provided at that time.
(Fixed the picture)

[ 2019-05-17 14:34:18 CET ] [ Original post ] Patch Notes 1.0.2This was a very minor patch with some data file modification and an update to the Leaderboard screens to keep the text on the screen.
Leaderboards still have trouble with extended unicode characters and this will be addressed in a future update.
[ 2019-05-15 20:32:15 CET ] [ Original post ] Known Issue: Linux Sound LibrariesWe have been notified of some game-crashing issues on Ubuntu relating to sound library compatibility. Specifically, the engine seems to very strongly prefer pulseaudio.
We are working with our engine support team and investigating personally but the fix may take some time.
In the meantime, Risk System on Ubuntu seems like it is likely to have issues for some distros/configurations. To some extent, this is unavoidable (the Linux ecosystem is large and complicated) but we will do our best to at least describe the settings we see working and update our system requirements to make purchase decisions more informed.
[ 2019-05-15 16:31:05 CET ] [ Original post ] Known Issues: Leaderboard Overflow/LocalizationWe have detected a small display issue on leaderboards where the text overflows the screen area. Also, we are aware that extended unicode characters will not display correctly.
The overflow issue will be resolved very shortly.
The unicode/localization issues will be dealt with more holistically in an ongoing localization effort. We will have polls shortly to determine which languages we should prioritize for translation/implementation.
[ 2019-05-14 20:04:50 CET ] [ Original post ] Known Issue: Ubuntu FramerateThere is a potential workaround recommended by a player.
[quote="@DustinOfcYT"]
- 1. Compile/install libstrangle https://github.com/milaq/libstrangle
- 2. Right click properties in Steam. Uncheck "Enable the Steam Overlay"
- 3. Click Set Launch Options and enter the following
VSYNC=1 strangle 60 %command%
Enjoy!

NOTE: We have not verified the entirety of this library so
use at your own risk. We will be checking it out more thoroughly in the near future but if you know/trust this library, it may solve your problem.
[ 2019-05-14 15:36:10 CET ] [ Original post ] Known Issues: Custom Controls / FullscreenWe are tracking reports of issues saving custom controller configuration and entering/staying in full screen.
Controller Config - We have a new build queued up that should remedy this situation. Still, it would be useful if you report you are having this issue along with the attempted combination of saved controls so we can more effectively QA this.
Fullscreen - We are not entirely sure what is happening here but an attempt at a remedy is being pushed with the same new build mentioned above. If the game exits fullscreen, trying ALT-ENTER or F4 should toggle to fullscreen in most cases. If this issue persists, please message us with information about system configuration and other resident software (especially screen capture/streaming software).
We apologize for any inconvenience and are working as quickly as we can to follow up and remedy every issue. We are a two-man development team with limited resources but are passionate about providing an optimal experience. Please bare with us as we resolve these launch issues.

[ 2019-05-14 14:50:20 CET ] [ Original post ] IMPORTANT UBUNTU INFORMATION: NVIDIA Framerate IssueIt has always been very important to us to have day one Linux support for Risk System. Unfortunately, known issues with our chosen game engine have conspired to throw a spanner in the works.
Ubuntu builds from GameMaker Studio 2, when played on Linux machines with NVIDIA graphics cards have an uncapped framerate. We have tried what we can from the development side but to no avail.
We are assured that a fix for this is already finished and will be available in the next release.
AS SOON as we can deliver a quality product, we will do so. In the meantime, players on Linux systems may encounter bizarre behavior until the patch.
Note: The Linux version of the game will remain available in order to secure launch week sale prices and for those users that have non-NVIDIA graphics cards.
[ 2019-05-13 21:21:00 CET ] [ Original post ] Risk System OP - "Traces"We are thrilled to present our new anime OP trailer* for Risk System. Check it out!

[ 2019-05-10 17:11:49 CET ] [ Original post ] In the distant future, humanity has discovered a method to replicate matter through the use of a Dimensional Gate. Industry is revolutionized overnight and a short period of chaos gives way to all warring factions uniting under a common banner.
A few years pass and the peace brought about by Gate Technology crumbles once a new threat appears; a race of energy parasites that have crossed through the Dimensional Gate by mimicking the very materials humanity had believed they were replicating. Mankind is quickly overtaken as their technology is turned against them and the energy emitted by the parasites begins to take control of those exposed.
In an act of desperation, the experimental RSK9 is constructed, a ship made of Pre-Gate materials and technology with the ability to absorb parasite energy and use it to power its incredible arsenal. Piloting the RSK9 is Alys, an ace pilot previously missing in action that has returned seemingly immune to parasite control. Her skill and resistance to the parasite energies influence make her the only pilot capable of preventing the extinction of mankind.
GAME PLAY:
-Increase your B-Meter & firepower quickly by flying as close to enemy fire as possible and absorbing their energy. The closer you fly, the more energy you net!
-Fire your weapon while flying close to enemy fire and absorbing to perform powerful "Risk Shots". Enemies destroyed by these powered up shots will turn into energy to power your shield. The best defense is a risky offense!
-Fly like an ace pilot and utilize Barrel Rolls to quickly cover vertical space & modify your attack!
-Unleash the Barrier Breaker once the B-Meter is full to inflict huge damage on everything in sight!
-Playing for points is fun again as higher scores are awarded for explosive bursts of destruction and taking risks! Destroy multiple enemies at once and utilize "Risk Shots" to string together combos and increase your score multiplier!
-Experience different facets and paths to the story based on your performance and actions taken during missions!
