Hi everyone! This is a pretty big patch that we've been preparing for a few months. As you can see, game development doesn't end after release =). I actually like that the game keeps changing, it seems like a game about mutations should mutate periodically too.
Graphic improvements:
- All hands in animations/illustrations redrawn in common style (hand taking mollusc/livewire/insectampule, burnt hand);
- Almost all ampules were redrawn (Pod, Spiky, Holed, Shell, Trilobite);
- New cerberus images (new portrait, new scene objects at the mushroom and spine levels);
- New tortoise portrait.
Bug fixes:
- Bioport image resets to default after loading savegame if bioport wasn't modified;
- Adem activates hollow only near it.

- Possible prevention of the bug with fish at the underwater level;
- Minor graphics fixes.

- PageUp/PageDown keys added to help screen - Possible fix for Steam Deck

Bina dancing in Adem's imagination in the greenhouse is no longer clickable
[ 2024-06-13 11:45:10 CET ] [ Original post ]
- Now cursors and items can be cycled not only with the mouse wheel, but also with the Page Up/Page Down buttons. Accordingly, you can map these keys into gamepad buttons in the Steam Deck configuration - Fixed bug with inactive Bina and tentacles in the skull

Patch 1.0.11, i.e. the eleventh (in binary code 1011 is also 11!). I tried to fix all the problem areas according to your feedback as much as possible. I was making this patch for a month and a half, took a vacation at work, worked on it all May holidays, so, long story short, enjoyed being an indie game developer at full speed. At this moment, this is the biggest and most comprehensive patch. It is quite possible that while fixing some bugs I introduced new ones, so if you see anything strange, could you please write to me, I'll try to fix them as soon as possible.
So!
- I added some additional reactions and explanations of how things work to almost every level;
- Also, I went through all the levels and almost everywhere I did the disabling of unnecessary hotspots and removing already used items;
- Generally cleaned up various dubious moments. For example, at the mushroom level cocoons are now switched by the indicators themselves, and unnecessary mushroom-switches were removed; I replaced irritating special effects at the greenhouse, also they would appear less often; now you can not drink two zhirbles at the same time and if you accumulated several zhirbles, they will be drunk one by one; slightly reworked two puzzles; corrected and added hints; fixed lots of small and middle bugs, etc., etc.;
- Made some kind of 'story mode' - you can disable the hint timer, but then you can't get one of the achievements; everyone who has finished the game before this patch will get this achievement automatically;
- Graphics was improved too: a new level tree and a new illustration frame are made; initial illustrations with the hands replaced by the ones, etc.

Patch 1.0.10 has been released, it's the tenth patch, so it's like an anniversary. I tried to bring in the most important bug fixes, player wishes, graphics updates, etc.
List of changes:
- Save count increased from 5 to 24! They are organized in a grid.
- When switching to another application, the whole game is paused.
- The bioflash menu is updated, and the most important thing: there's an adorable bug to close it!
- Achievements are refactored: infinite counters replaced by achievable ones, added a few new ones.
- Fixed a bug: it was possible to have an inactive character standing on a tentacle in the skull after loading a save, and when the character leaves, the tentacle remains fixed.
- If the leech is used on a biointerface juggler and Adem is not connected to it, Adem will come up to juggler automatically.
- Two timers are forbidden in the greenhouse at the same time.
- Completed the introduction to the tree puzzle at the beginning of the greenhouse, added some new reactions to it.
- Fixed some effects and post-effects of the zhirble.
- A 64 pixel Windows application icon has been added.
- Biointerface and hotspot highlight fonts now scale as the rest of the fonts.
- Large update of menus: bugbag transfering, biointerface juggler, biointerface separator, and some animations and cursors have been updated.
- Miscellaneous little things: fixed some hotspots, walk-to-markers, reactions, typos, etc.
[ 2024-03-28 13:15:41 CET ] [ Original post ]
Major fixes:
- Clicking with item on biointerface now triggers the same action as clicking with biointerface on item (previously it has just selected the clicked biointerface)
- Pixelisation of inventory items is removed
- Fixed the activation of separated biointerfaces on the rooftop, as well as some extra reactions of the fixed Adem
- Updated artwork in the first tablet, portraits of Adem and Bina, and scenery in the spine windows
- Illustration frames have been unified
- Finalised the layout of several menus
- Some illustrations are closed for maintenance
- If item is selected, right-clicking above the biointerface still resets the item

Hi all!
It's been a while! I am still developing the game: now all the drafts of all levels are finished. Also, the protagonist costume and face were enhanced, there's a periodic system of biodelic elements now and the other cool stuff was drawn by our artists! Unfortunately, the levels need a lot of polishing (like, scripting the reactions for the wrong actions, adding background animations and so on). I'm developing the game only after hours and at the weekends, so the process isn't as fast as I want it to be, but I'll try to do updates more often.
We'd like to present you "flesh bubbling" animation, it's played when something mutates on the level:

In the world of excessive biotechnologies, an neuroepidemic is ravaging the human race, enslaving people to the mysterious Worm. Who are you: a fighter of the infection, or a hunter of new prey?
It's a surreal biopunk point'n'click adventure in the spirit of the David Cronenberg's eXistenZ and the classic Vangers game.
DNA test of the game shows:
- Lots of bioflash drives and insect ampules;
- Puzzles based on the use of many natural and implanted organs;
- Characters of a wide and strange variety;
- Several playable helpers;
- Virtual Assistant "Jolly Jelly" with a dubious sense of humor ("The crocoquacker has only one problem... And that problem is called 'crocoquacker'").

The summer Steam Game Festival is the best chance to learn all about crocoquackers and insectampuls! Right after the demo version streaming!
'Exit: A Biodelic Adventure' is classic point'n'click set in the world of living technologies, a world in which computers can be fed and cured, where DNA-passwords open gene-locks, and insect hormones revitalize memory. A world with biofactories that give birth to household utensils, where genetically-modified molds can generate virtual realities, and worst of all where an epidemic is ravaging the human race, infecting people's neuronet implants and enslaving them to the mysterious Worm. Who are you: a fighter of the infection, or a hunter of new prey?

We'll be streaming the demo version at summer Steam Game Festival! Bioports, beetlekeys, insectampuls, bilirubin tablet and all that jazz.

Welcome to the world of living technologies, a world in which computers can be fed and cured, where DNA-passwords open gene-locks, and insect hormones revitalize memory. A world with biofactories that give birth to household utensils, where genetically-modified molds can generate virtual realities, and — worst of all — where an epidemic is ravaging the human race, infecting people's neuronet implants and enslaving them to the mysterious Worm.
You'll end up locked underwater with a giant ichthyoserver, trip on biogenic hallucinations and even get tied up among mutant beetles. You'll program sentient tangles of tentacles with foreign genes! Don't forget your own body, of course: you'll give yourself extra fingers, lend your eye to a biorobot for espionage, and even let your nose run off and whiff some spores for a while. You'll even enter your own spine!
But having entered this brave new world, can you find the Exit?
For fans of the biopunk subgenre; early movies of David Cronenberg ("Videodrome", "Naked Lunch", "eXistenZ"), the books of Stanislav Lem ("Eden", "Observation on the Spot"), Paul Di Philippo ("Ribofunk"), Jeff Vandermeer ("Born"), the comics of Charles Burns ("Black Hole", "Last Look"), and the classic Dark Seed and Vangers games.
Features
- Story-driven biopunk point-and-click adventure;
- Elbow-deep in bioflash drives, living joysticks, brain caviar, insect ampules, and smelling snails;
- Puzzles based on the use of many natural and implanted organs (nose, mouth, bioport, reference mollusc, caterpillar-injecta and more!);
- Characters of a wide and strange variety: shoggoth, crocoquacker, naturmorph, octopad, tortoysa and all other uroboroses;
- Several playable helpers, including Military Fish and Autonomous Ear;
- Virtual Assistant "Jolly Jelly" with a dubious sense of humor ("If you've got hairy hands, you don't need a towel!");
- Three obvious virtues of the protagonist's companion: determination, resourcefulness, and confidence!;
- You can't die, but you can drink zhirble (remember, only drink a zhirble if you see a chorble!);
- There's an Exit!
Story
It all started when the neuronet brain-implants were made. They were designed to help people; sort information, filter out bad smells and tastes, clear out your thoughts. Despite claims that the neuronets reprogrammed their hosts instead of adapting to them, they boomed in popularity. The neuronets grew. They integrated, became aware of their hosts' secrets and weaknesses... And then, like a sudden crash of thunder, the Epidemic of the Worm happened, and the human race surrendered to the neuronets. Entire wormy cities now exist where inhabitants perform sinister rites and search for new victims.
Who are you in this story? Hunter or prey? Fugitive or savior? Which do you choose: to fight, to fit, or to Exit?
