Hey everyone,
I wanted to post a small update because I know things have been quiet for a while.
EXOME is not abandoned. I took some time away from it, replayed it with fresh eyes, and I still strongly believe in the foundation: the movement, gunplay, atmosphere, enemies, and world.
The current build is still very much the first major chapter of EXOME. Moving forward, my focus is to build more systems around the existing foundation, giving players more reasons to revisit areas, experiment with weapons, and approach encounters in different ways.
Part of that shift means aiming for a more regular update cadence. Rather than waiting until everything is perfect, I want to start shipping smaller improvements more often when possible.
Thank you to everyone who has played, reviewed, reported bugs, or stuck around. I know the game still has a long way to go, but I’m not done with it yet.

Moved dynamite pickup to be up with the other collectables in the Old Barn
Fixed resupply drone cancelling itself if deployed on something other than ground
Fixed an issue with not correctly waiting to spawn a new monster type till last wave of event
Fixed an issue with boosted spawning ratios
Updated Game Icon and Main Menu Logo
Hey everyone,
Today I’ve updated EXOME’s key art and store visuals as well. The game has changed a lot since it first released, and the old artwork wasn't matching the tone anymore. This new look is meant to better represent what EXOME is today and where it’s heading.
Also added more details to the roadmap because the last one was pretty vague:
If you’ve been enjoying EXOME, leaving a review helps a lot. It boosts visibility and helps more players discover the game, which makes a big difference for a solo developer.
Thanks for playing!
More soon...

Major Update 1 Out Now!

Hey everyone,
The time has finally come...
I'm thrilled to announce that Major Update 1 is officially live!
Years of hard work
This update represents years of hard work, remastering, refining, and listening to community feedback. A lot of that time was spend on deep systems work that isn't always visible on the surface. Rewriting core gameplay loops, overhauling AI behavior, balancing combat flow, optimizing performance, and adding in the framework that will carry EXOME forward.
These were not quick fixes. They required tearing things down, testing, iterating, and building them back up in a way that I can now expand on more easily.
Major Update 1 also delivers a long list of improvements, bug fixes, and quality of life changes that I believe make the experience more intense, more immersive, and ultimately more rewarding for both solo and co-op players.
Thank you
I want to sincerely thank every single one of you who stuck with me through the long wait and supported the game during its early stages. Your patience, feedback, and encouragement were crucial, and this update would not exist without the community standing behind it.
Jump in, try it out, and let me know what you think. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on all the changes.
New Features
New Procedural Event System One of the major developments has been the implementation of a new procedural event system. This system introduces dynamic and unpredictable outcomes to the platforms, ensuring that no two playthroughs are alike.
New Weather System From torrential rainstorms and snowstorms to scorching heatwaves, the weather will not only influence the visual aesthetics but also alter gameplay dynamics. For instance, a sudden downpour might decrease visibility and intensify combat, while clear skies could make things more manageable.
New Difficulty System There is a now a difficulty system to cater to a wider audience. Whether you're a seasoned gamer seeking a challenge or a casual player looking for a more relaxed experience. This ensures that everyone can play at their own preferred pace.
New Partial Controller Support Can be played with a controller but menus aren't supported yet.
New Poise System for players and monsters Players and monsters now both have a poise. Players will visual stumble, fall or get thrown back if their poise breaks in a short enough time. Monsters can be staggered if their poise breaks.
New Player Dodging Added a dodging mechanic for the player. I've wanted the player to have more options on how to deal with attackers.
New Player Melee Get your steel toes on because you're going to need them with all that worm kicking.
New Explosive Weaponry Added explosive weapons in order to help the players deal with larger swarms of enemies. Who doesn't love blowing things up?
New Bullet Ballistics Added bullet drop and ricochet to all weapons. Some weapons also have tracer rounds. Bullets also have travel time, influenced by the muzzle velocity of the weapon being fired.
New Companion: T.E.S.A. Added combat assistant to support solo players in their playthroughs. She will draw some of the monsters’ aggro and help deal damage accordingly.
New Save System After every update in the past, players would be required to start a new save game. This new save system will allow save game migrations for future updates so that you don't have to keep starting over with every update.
New Long-awaited Boss Fight I'm thrilled to share that the long awaited boss fight is finally in the game. I hope you find this fight as fun and challenging as it was to make!

Additional Notes

If you encounter a bug or want to provide feedback, you can do so through the in-game feedback panel or on the EXOME Discord (https://discord.gg/eUVQDBVNVE).
Content creators: all music in EXOME is properly licensed and safe to use in videos or streams.
From the bottom of my heart - thank you for your patience and support. Your feedback continues to have a direct impact on EXOME.
This is just the beginning, and there much more to come...
Sincerely,

Hey everyone,
The preview is available to play right... now. ːsteamhappyː
What's in this update?
Just to reiterate a little, many of EXOME’s systems have undergone full reworks to support my long-term plans for EXOME’s future. In the initial build, many of these implementations were glorified prototypes. I didn’t put much effort into them at the time because I wasn’t sure if EXOME would find an audience. But it looks like it has and this means that many systems and mechanics needed to be reworked to be more modular. This will reduce the time required for future content and potentially allow for more frequent updates.
The main goal of this update is to implement the boss fight and properly conclude this area. With modular systems now in place, Update 2 and future updates won’t take as long to develop. By taking the time to restructure things now, subsequent updates should be able to be released much faster.
This update has been a monumental task for me. Going forward, I’ll be switching to smaller, more manageable updates - not only for my own sake, but also to help everyone stay better caught up on things as EXOME develops.
What's next?
During this testing phase I'll be getting things ready for the full release and updating the preview branch as things get fixed. The full release will happen after I'm satisfied that most the problems are fixed. I'm not sure how long this is going to take, but I don't suspect it will take super long.
As you play the preview, keep in mind that there is a higher potential for encountering bugs that haven't been seen yet. I highly appreciate it if you leave in-game feedback by pressing F8, or by leaving it in the EXOME Discord (https://discord.gg/eUVQDBVNVE) or Steam Discussions. I thank you in advance!
I hope everyone enjoys the preview for Update 1!

Hello everyone! I hope you're all doing well. It's been a while since I last shared any news, and I want to extend my thanks for your continued patience.
I've been working hard on a major update for EXOME, and I'm excited to provide you with a brief insight into what will be included:

New Procedural Event System: One of the major developments has been the implementation of a new procedural event system. This system will introduce dynamic and unpredictable outcomes to the platforms, ensuring that no two playthroughs are alike.
New Weather System: From torrential rainstorms and snowstorms to scorching heatwaves, the weather will not only influence the visual aesthetics but also alter gameplay dynamics. For instance, a sudden downpour might decrease visibility and intensify combat, while clear skies could make things more manageable.
New Difficulty System: I've also been working on a difficulty system to cater to a wider audience. Whether you're a seasoned gamer seeking a challenge or a casual player looking for a more relaxed experience. This ensures that everyone can play at their own preferred pace.
New Player Dodging: I've put a lot of thought into it and decided to add a dodging mechanic for the player. I've wanted the player to have more options on how to deal with combat.
New Explosive Weaponry: I'll also be adding explosive weapons in order to help the players deal with larger swarms of enemies. Who doesn't love blowing things up?
New Bullet Ballistics: Adding bullet drop and ricochet to all weapons. Some weapons will also have tracer rounds. Bullets will also have travel time, influenced by the muzzle velocity of the weapon being fired.
New Android Assistant: T.E.S.A. Adding an AI combat assistant to support solo players in their playthroughs. She will draw some of the monsters’ aggro and help deal damage accordingly.
Long-Awaited Boss Fight: I'm thrilled to share that the long awaited boss fight is in the works. I'm working hard to design this encounter to be both challenging and fun.
As a solo developer, progress can be slow, but I'm dedicated to crafting an experience that I'm proud to share with you. It can be challenging at times, but I'm continually learning to make this game the best it can be. I understand the importance of communication, and I'll do my best to provide more frequent updates going forward. Your input is vital, and I'm eager to hear your thoughts and ideas.
Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. I can't wait to share this update with you when it's ready. I'm very grateful for all of your support.
