Heya!
We're aware that no one likes to read long off-topic updates, so let's get straight to the point: two of our games will be participating in the upcoming Steam Next Fest, and we'd love it if you'd give their demos a chance. We can't promise a complete match to your tastes, but the quality is guaranteed.
The first one is Die in the Dungeon, a turn-based roguelike game where you don't use cards, but dice. Deal with enemies by combining powerful dice on your board, boost their effects with magical relics, and risk it all hoping for a good roll on unexpected encounters. Oh, and the protagonist here is a cute little frog - everyone loves frogs, right?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2026820/Die_in_the_Dungeon
The second one is Intravenous 2, an old-school tactical stealth action game. Will you embrace the shadows or confront your foes head-on? The choice is yours. Save lives. Uncover secrets. Take vengeance. If you're up for some hardcore challenge - don't miss it, you'll dig it for sure.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2608270/Intravenous_2/
This post should have ended here, as there is no third game for the Fest. BUT there is a third, freshly revealed game that we would still like to present to you, so here we go:
Canyons is a third-person extraction shooter set in a procedurally generated post-apocalyptic world where survival is only possible in the canyons. Play solo or gather a team of up to four players. Arm yourselves to the teeth, grab supplies, and set out to conquer the canyons on massive Crawlers. This one won't have a demo anytime soon, but if it's up your alley, be sure to wishlist the game so you don't miss out on it.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2708860/Canyons
Cheers, and we wish you as many exciting games as possible!
Autumn is a season of harvest, and games are no exception! Our publisher HypeTrain Digital decided to join the festivities and arrange a mega sale to be held from 8 to 12 September.

Greetings, Officers! After reviewing your feedback, we updated the Zombie Case DLC to make the gameplay more enjoyable for you:
Greetings, Officers! Today we have made small changes to improve the balance and gameplay in the Zombie Case DLC:
Greetings, Officers! While work on Police Stories: The Academy continues, we're polishing up what we've already released. In particular, a lot of work is being done on the Zombie Case DLC:
Hello Officers!
We continue to improve Police Stories and develop The Academy, a free prologue and prequel to the original game, where you can play as young Rick and John, who were trainees at the police academy back then. And today we want to ask you - how do you feel about the Police Stories' references?
The plot in Police Stories has always been not only a detective story, but also contained a share of humor and hidden references to other famous movies, books or even games. We don't want to stop this tradition, and we're going to add more easter eggs to The Academy.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1986760/Police_Stories_The_Academy/
For example, on one of the locations in the building you can find... a well! What do you think the reference is? There are also torture rooms and a sewing room. A strange combination that clearly refers to something!
Head to the comments and let us know what you think of the Police Stories' Easter eggs - we'd love to know your opinion! And don't forget to add The Academy to your Wishlist so that you don't miss the news and be the first to play the prequel.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1986760/Police_Stories_The_Academy/
Hello Officers! Today we're announcing Police Stories: The Academy, a prequel and free prologue to the game that will include three new missions and locations. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1986760/Police_Stories_The_Academy/ In The Academy, Rick and John are still inexperienced trainees who are just learning to be cops. Another day at the police academy goes awry when a riot breaks out in town. To make matters worse, a "rat" who works with the local mafia has turned up at the police station. And of course, only two student cops can challenge all the trouble! Police Stories: The Academy will include 3 new missions and locations, plus a police academy training ground. Help young Rick and John become brutal cops! *** More details about Police Stories: The Academy are coming in the next development diary. For instance, the release date! Don't forget to add The Academy to your Wishlist in order not to miss any news and to be the first to play the Police Stories prequel. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1986760/Police_Stories_The_Academy/
Hello, officers! We continue to improve Police Stories, and today we made a small update.
Greetings, Officers! We made a small update to Police Stories - now, users who purchased the Zombie Case DLC can play it immediately after entering the game. Playing Zombie Case will not affect playing the main campaign. However, note: the equipment will be opened only with the passage of the main 18 missions. Important: New missions assume that you are already familiar with the basic game mechanics of Police Stories and are ready to face even more difficult tasks. Thank you for giving feedback. It's important to us! We continue to work on improving the game. If you find in-game bugs or inaccuracies, please let us know! You can contact us in the comments below this post or on our Discord: https://discord.gg/4NmfAtBa Have fun playing!
Greetings, officers! Today we want to tell you about the in-game bugs we fixed.
Greetings, officers! What haven't Rick and John encountered yet? This time its something much more interesting! No manual tells you what to do when facing the living dead! Help our heroes prevent a threat to the safety of the world. Note: you can access new missions from Zombie Case DLC only after completing the main story campaign. However, we know that you may want to fight with zombies even earlier. That's why a special patch will be released by March 29, which will unlock the Zombie Case walkthrough after the 4th mission from the Police Stories story campaign.
Hello Officers! No foreplay: the Zombie Case DLC will be released this week, Saturday, March 26! Solve the zombie case, complete 5 new missions, and save the world! Don't forget to add the DLC to your Wishlist to become one of the first players fighting the zombies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fbB_45PBo0&ab_channel=HypeTrainDigital https://store.steampowered.com/app/1329730/Police_Stories_Zombie_Case/
Hello, Officers! We continue to talk about the upcoming Zombie Case DLC. Todays menu: screenshots of new locations and zombie types.
Hello Officers! We're finally ready to announce the new DLC for Police Stories - Zombie Case. You don't have to be a detective to know what it's about! But we'll tell you more about what's new in the game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1329730/Police_Stories_Zombie_Case/?beta=0
Greetings, officers! Weve been preparing this Police Stories version for a long time. An updated partner with improved AI. A new police story telling about a crazy anarchist Charlie McDennis. Finally, a Halloween mode in which youll meet the long-awaited zombies for the first time.
Yes, it's another Beta branch update! Most likely it's the final one before we move it to the public. That's why it's more important than ever for more people to check it to make sure everything is top-notch.
Based on your feedback, we decided to give players the ability switch the partner AI behavior on the go.
Greetings, officers!
We received a lot of useful feedback on the new AI partner. Taking into account your comments and analyzing the situation, we decided to make a few more changes.
The main guideline in these changes to the partner was that we wanted to make him a second player able to act autonomously, but still be dependent on the main player. We overdid it a bit with his aggressiveness, so we made him a little weaker.
While we are improving the partner, we invite you to play the updated beta, which includes all the innovations that we were going to release with the update.
One of the most popular complaints we receive since the game release is about partners AI. Now it's time to fix it.
In 1.4.0 our aim is to make sure Rick is a real aid to the player, and not just a dummy carrying grenades.
Greetings, officers!
In this patch we focused on the developments of destructible walls.
Weve added a tutorial window with destructible walls to the first level. Now new players will be aware of their presence in the game for sure.
Our team would like to thank all content makers. We watched a lot of your Police Stories playthroughs and realized that destructible walls were not visible enough. Therefore, we decided to make them animated so that you no longer have to strain your eyes.
And if you think that there weren't enough of them, now destructible walls are also available in the level editor!
Enjoy your dismantling!
Hey officers,
Today we'd like to present you something dark and mysterious. No, we're not adding zombies to Police Stories (at least this Summer), but please take a look at a game our friends are working on, because theyve just released its new demo, and we think that it deserves your attention.
There Is No Light is a pixel-art action-adventure set in a grim underground world ruled by the mysterious Church of the Great Hand, where the entire human population has been eradicated by a global catastrophe.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1132980/There_Is_No_Light/
Explore the game world, listen to the stories of survivors, vanquish hordes of bloodthirsty demonic creatures and fight deadly Bosses to fulfill your goal save your child who has been taken away by the Church.
There Is No Light takes part in the Steam Next Fest, thus there is a brand new demo version available on Steam from June 16 to June 22 dont forget that the demo is time-limited and it will be removed from the platform after the event, so make sure to check it out!
The new demo features all the core gameplay and three in-game locations: New Nimbus, Path Of Sorrow and Steel Forest, as well as one mini-boss and one full-fledged boss at the end.
Also, the team has recently published a teaser of a launch trailer, which will be released later this summer you can watch it on YouTube.
[previewyoutube=QMCEoBgF36g;full][/previewyoutube]
We really hope you enjoy the work our friends have put so much effort into, and, of course, have a great day!

Greetings, officers! This small fix-patch is devoted to your feedback. We read all your commentaries, reviews, complaints and suggestions, and, of course, analyze them. Many players experience difficulties with the completion of missions. The game still has a high entry threshold, which not everyone can handle. We have lowered the penalty for mistakes, making it easier to beat the game overall. However, if you want to complete the game with a high score, youll have to spend the same effort. Also, players have difficulty in situations where negotiations are already useless, and delay can cost Rick and John their lives. The heartbeat quickens, and the blood boils, as you made the difficult decision that the only way to stop the criminal would be to shoot, and every millisecond becomes worth its weight in gold. But at the most important moment, the hand of the police officer shakes and the bullet doesnt hit the target, while the cold-blooded bandit deals with the lawkeeper with one precise shot. We have slightly increased the accuracy of the police officers, while the criminals have become slightly less accurate, which increases your chances in a firefight at long distances. Thanks to everyone who leaves feedback. Thank you for your responses to the last survey. Weve received a thousand replies a lot to think about. We continue to work on the game and make it better. The following bugs have been fixed:
Hello, officers!

Collect items, make tools, build vehicles, and more to help you unravel the mystery behind the explosion of the largest space vessel and all its dark secrets.

The game has very positive reviews on Steam, and were sure that some of you will find it to their liking!
Hey everyone!
Well be concise: weve got some good news for you. Two of them, actually.
First of all, Police Stories Supporter Pack has been updated: weve finally added in-game donuts and trumpet as a supplement to the existing soundtrack and artbook, just as promised better late than never, right? Those are not simple reskins, but rather totally new pieces of equipment which will (at least we hope so) make your gameplay a bit funnier and more varied.
Donuts strategic set of nutrients. Restore vitality, improve your mood.
Trumpet capable of inspiring allies and demoralizing enemies in the right hands. Or the other way round.
Maybe that's not HUGE, but if you enjoy the game and keep playing it purchasing Supporter Pack is the best thing you can do to show your love.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1158270/Police_Stories_Supporter_Pack/
Secondly, our publisher HypeTrain Digital celebrates the 5th anniversary (congrats!) and launches a major Steam Publisher Sale running November 4-9th, where you can grab their titles at up to 80% off.

We regret to inform our audience that Online Co-op will be coming to Police Stories on October 2, as mentioned in the roadmap below.
Weve worked extra hard to eliminate critical bugs before the games release, but, we just need a bit more time, since were a small team. Were confident in fixing the problems weve encountered in Online Co-op. Closed Beta participants know that it was already working very well in past.
We will create a separate version of the game with Online Co-op available in the Beta branch, so that every owner of Police Stories can help us with testing. More details about the beta branch will be posted later in Steam Discussions.
Thank you for your patience and continued support of Police Stories!
Hello fellow officers! Only one day left until Police Stories release! We cant even begin to describe how happy we are to be finally able to release our game.

Release day for Police Stories is getting closer and closer. To make the wait feel less daunting we will be sharing some info about the games core aspects. Today well be talking about types of suspects and their behaviour.
Hello officers!
The wait is almost over! Even though there is still some work to be done like game balancing, localization and bug fixing, we can clearly see the finish line as the game nears its September 19th release date.
Police Stories will come to Steam and Nintendo Switch first, and then, later this Fall, to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, since we want to make sure that the players on each platform are getting the best experience.
It took us nearly 4 years to finish Police Stories, and during this time nearly every aspect of the game was tweaked or reworked. Previously called Pixel Police, the game came a long way to becoming what it is today. Since the Greenlight Page for the proto-police is still up, you can take a look at the project and see the progress yourself!
Lets take a look at the features which werent even planned in the beginning, but will be an essential part of Police Stories:
Do you hear the sirens? Its the sound of Police Stories release! Coming to all platforms on September 19th for $14.99!
(price may differ depending on the region)
And heres a new trailer showcasing new locations, gear and story bits! Here to brighten up your wait for the games release!

Hello, officers!
Were happy to share some fresh news about Police Stories development.
Hey, officers!
For the last several weeks weve been transferring the project to GameMaker Studio 2. Finishing this part of the development process allowed us to proceed to implementing some of the features we had planned for quite a while. As you can see on the gif, Police Stories is now both working on Mac and has a controller support!
For now the Right Stick is responsible for aiming, which isnt very convenient. Were going to upgrade it with a more classic twin-stick approach, plus a special button combination to command your partner. Luckily, the menu is optimized for the controller since the very beginning, so most of the work is already done.
Adding a controller support required us to upgrade the whole input system. It turned out to be a good thing, as now were able to implement changing control keys more easily.
After finishing this part of the development, were moving to widely anticipated Couch Co-op. Aside from the tech side, it also includes update of the HUD.
Hello officers!
I'm happy to invite you to try out Police Stories Alpha 2. This Open Alpha update features 3 levels, one of which is available in Open Alpha for the first time.This version also includes some of the new mechanics we worked on as long with 3 kinds of enemies, each having different difficulty and weapon set.

This is the final update for our Open Alpha before the game release. Keep in mind that this is the Alpha version of the game, so it might contain bugs. We encourage you to report all the bugs and other problems you might encounter during your playtime.
This version of Police Stories has 3 levels and 3 kinds of enemies. Each type of enemy has different weaponry and difficulty. We also made sure to add some new equipment to play with. Including brand new Heavy Ammo that pierces through doors.
Full version of the game will have lots of equipment to choose from, an online co-op and a story mode on release.
Thank you for playing our Open Alpha! Dont forget to add the game to your Steam Wishlist so you wouldnt miss the full release.

Hey, officers!
Its been awhile since we last shared details on our development process. But rest assured, weve been working hard on making sure that Police Stories is worth the wait.
The most important and time-consuming part of the development lately was the story. Weve been working day and night to think of the best way to tell you the stories of John Rimes and Rick Jones. A lot of the ideas got scrapped because they were not good enough for our players. We want to give you the best experience with our game and now were finally on the right track.
Of course, our team was also working on improving the game from the inside. We improved our AI for both Rick and enemies. Now theyre doing a much better job at finding their way around with our improved pathfinding system. Also weve added the ability to shoot through the doors.
Additionally we worked on polishing the visual effects. Melee combat is now way more impactful as weve added blood splats. Weve updated the explosion effect and some of the animations, for example the one for the stunned enemies.
And most importantly, weve decided to update our Free Alpha next week!
We know that a lot of players want to try out some of the cool features they saw in all the new Police Stories gameplay videos. We heard you and we will deliver. Were adding a new mission for you to play, some new items youve probably seen on the videos and some other Closed Beta content. But no Co-op this part stays exclusive for the Kickstarter backers.
Unfortunately, we cant give you a release date of the full version yet. At the moment there are still so many aspects affecting the timeframe at which well be able to deliver you the full version of Police Stories.
Thats all for now! Of course, all the feedback, opinions and bug reports are highly appreciated. Join our Discord channel to take a part in the discussion.
Hello, officers!
Were happy to announce that, starting now, all Kickstarter backers can try out Online Multiplayer in Police Stories Beta!
All of the tactical equipment works online - so you can heal and revive your partner, use C4 and other types of tactical gear to successfully complete even the toughest missions, together with a friend!
If youre searching for someone to partner up with, theres no better place to look than the official Police Stories Discord Server! Also were really looking forward to getting feedback about multiplayers online stability, as well as the game in general - so in any case, be sure to post your thoughts in Steam Discussions.
Greetings, officers!
Check the updated Closed Beta of Police Stories, which is now available to all Kickstarter backers. To find your key please check email from ib@hypetraindigital.com.
It includes the tactical tools which you can equip before starting a new level and use during the operation, new sprint mechanic, breakable windows and VHS effect (can be disabled in the settings). We unlocked first 3 missions, so that you can jump into new levels without having to play first two missions from Alpha again.
Here is a full list of available equipment:
Smoke Grenade
Motion Sensor
C4
Defibrillator
Pepper Spray
First Aid Kit
(we will add more tools in the full game, some mechanics will be updated as well)
Use [1], [2], [3], [4] buttons to select equipment while playing. We will be grateful for any feedback regarding the use of tactical equipment and any issues you might stumble upon while testing it. We want to make these items highly useful and fun so that player can rely more on a tactical approach rather than on the reaction time alone.
Please note that weve disabled multiplayer options for some time (couple of weeks) since it needs more polishing. We will unlock it back soon.
You can leave all your feedback in Police Stories Steam Discussions or Official Discord Server (Every backer will be given a special color theme there). Well be back soon with more news and updates.
Just a little note to keep you updated!
While improving player's interaction with AI mate, we finally decided to add an option to give him commands in a row.
For such an interaction we use holding SHIFT + RMB for now, but may change to something else. Maybe it should be a standard option your thoughts are highly welcome. Also some UI visualization and changes to officers' speech are definitely needed.
Stealth is what youll use in Police Stories a lot. We've also been pretty stealthy with the development lately. But let's put an end to this!
Today, wed like to share some info about the use of tactical equipment in Police Stories.
With a few changes to the controls layout, the player can now use all equipment without the help of a partner: explode doors with a C4, throw motion sensors and smoke grenades, use pepper spray to neutralize suspects and many other equipment will be available at your disposal!
We did not reach the desired polish on both visuals and some in-game mechanics, but our final goal is to get the game to a point where the player can spend hours experimenting with different tactics for better results. Also, since all equipment will be unlocking gradually with your in-game progress, youll be able to replay old missions with new equipment - and maybe get a higher score!
