Hello Enforcers!

In this monthly dev diary we’re going to be talking about Item Modifications and Augments.

Item Modifications

During your adventures in Superfuse, you will come across numerous powerful items that you may want to enhance further. With our new Item Modification feature, you can take these items to new heights by customising and empowering them. However, be warned that with great power comes great responsibility!

When you place an item on the Modification Bench with a stat modification material, you will be prompted to select a stat to apply. However, if the item already has a maximum amount of stats then one will be replaced at random, injecting an element of chaos into the mix. With each modification made, the item will accumulate corruption, progressively raising the likelihood of it becoming corrupted during the modification process.

What happens when an item becomes corrupted?

If an item succumbs to corruption through modification, all of its stats will be randomly replaced, acquiring an additional corrupted stat, and rendering it unmodifiable. This means that as you tweak your item, you must vigilantly monitor its corruption chance, carefully balancing risk versus reward, and decide how far you are willing to push it in pursuit of the perfect outcome.

Augments and Augment Slots

Now, let's delve into augments!

Augments are new modification items which can be found by defeating enemies and looting chests in the upcoming update. These items can be placed into augment slots on your gear, thereby bestowing additional stats upon them. Furthermore, we will introduce new modification materials that grant you the ability to add Augment Slots or remove Augments from your gear.

And behold, Rare Materials…

Within this update we’ll also be including two new rare high risk versus reward materials. These materials possess captivating and unpredictable interactions that can make or break your item, but we shall leave their secrets for you to discover in our forthcoming update.

We sincerely hope that you have thoroughly enjoyed this Dev Diary and we look forward to talking to you on the next one!

Dev Diary - Earth

Hello Enforcers!

We are happy to share our first content packed Superfuse Dev Diary! Today we’re going to be talking about the desolated world known as Earth!

In the wake of Earth's cataclysmic disasters, the wealthiest elite sought refuge among the stars, leaving the disheartened populace behind to grapple with the ruins of their once-thriving world. Amidst the crumbling remains of Earth, an unknown threat began to spread - the Corruption, plunging the remains of society into turmoil. With accusations of its origin flying in every direction, blame and distrust became currency in this fractured world, pitting neighbour against neighbour. To stem the tide of decay and restore a glimmer of hope, a bold initiative by the billionaires - now known as Genetically Optimised Directors (GODS) - birthed the Enforcer Program, a courageous group of superheroes determined to confront the Corruption head-on and protect the vulnerable.

But as the Enforcers continue their mission on Earth, they would soon uncover the darkest secrets behind the origins of the Corruption, revealing that the true battle for Earth's survival had only just begun.

During the development of Earth, we placed significant emphasis on creating distinct environmental contrasts, ensuring that each region offers a unique and captivating experience. Prepare to step into a world of desolation and hope, where your actions will shape the fate of this once-thriving world.

With our upcoming update, players will respond to a distress call from Earth originating from the post-apocalyptic town of New Eden. Moved by the plea for help, they embark on a courageous mission to aid the town's forgotten populace in their fight against Earth’s Corruption.

Upon reaching New Eden, players immediately face a harsh reality - the wastelands are not only plagued by the Corruption, but also infested with dangerous Raiders, who think of themselves as apex predators of humanity preying on what they perceive to be “weaker” Settlers. These cunning adversaries come in various types, each presenting unique challenges that demand specific approaches. In the upcoming section, we’ll give you a sneak peek of some of the dangers to come.

When creating Earth’s enemies our primary aim was to ensure their behaviour truly stood out from one another, making each encounter feel different from the last. As you venture into the barren world, you'll encounter a diverse range of adversaries, varying from colossal and highly menacing foes with more telegraphed attacks to agile, nimble Raiders who can strike you down in an instant.

Some of these enemies are not just seeking survival, but are eager to shred their way through the apocalypse, wielding guitars as their instruments of chaos! Prepare for an electrifying encounter with these audacious foes, who bring a whole new level of excitement to the wastelands by strengthening their allies with the power of heavy metal!

Thank you for joining us in today's dev diary! We hope you've enjoyed this deep dive, and we can't wait to have you with us on the next one.

See you soon, Enforcers!

What’s Next for Superfuse

Hello Enforcers, We know it’s been a while since we last wrote, and we wanted to start off by thanking you all for your patience during this period. Following our release and with the feedback that came in, the team has been busy working on new content and features across the boa

Patch 0.1.4 is live!

Hello Enforcers,

With today's patch, we’ve focused mostly on Quality of Life improvements and have made a ton of changes regarding Boosters based on community feedback! Booster charges will now automatically be picked up and each player will have their own instanced booster drops creating a more consistent supply of charges in those multiplayer experiences. We’ve also increased the stack sizes, thereby reducing clutter in your inventory, and have made some general tweaks as to how they function as well.

We’re continuing to improve tooltips and have made several modifications in this patch to improve clarity across the board which we hope will be well received.

Lastly we heard you all enjoyed the previous credits auto pick up range so we’ve listened to your feedback and brought it back at its previous values!

Please continue to post your feedback as we are looking into it all and your voice helps improve the game as a whole while we continue to produce more patches and content.

Patch 0.1.3 is out!

Hello Enforcers,

We're back with another patch! This time one with a few more elaborate changes you've been requesting. We are far from done with looking through your feedback though, so expect more patches to come. Additionally, this patch hasn't looked at assisting you with your auto-aiming needs (this is for the Homing Fuse aficionados in the comment section, this patch does not include any homing changes).

We’ve made improvements to combat and skill input responsiveness, this primarily addresses your skills activating when you expect them to and attacking consecutive nearby targets rather than going into a “move only” when an enemy is killed. On top of that, this patch is also tackling a range of tooltips issues, specifically regarding skill buff details and inconsistencies. Skills will now also display any tags that get added through fuses.

Lastly, we’ve added some much needed (and requested) quality of life features such as UI scaling in the settings menu, clicking to use boosters in the action bar, and FOV / Widescreen support. Please Note: we're only supporting a maximum of 21/9 aspect ratio resolutions, so wider aspect ratios will see black bars on the far edges of their screen, forcing it to 21/9 max. This aspect ratio decision is to avoid giving those few players on mega ultra widescreens too much of an advantage compared to other resolutions.

Oh, and shields drop now. Leon's also restocked some fuses, and we squashed quite a few bugs.

TL;DR: This patch focuses on Combat/Skill Responsiveness, Tooltips, Widescreen support, UI Scaling in settings, Shields drop now, and more tooltip improvements coming.

As always, keep the feedback coming and thank you for your continued patience as we continue on this Early Access Journey!

The Stitch Heads Team

Combat and Character Movement

Improved and addressed issues for input handling of skill inputs:
- Fixed Channeling Skills such as Tornado never activating when starting to hold the action down while it was not ready to activate yet. It will now activate when ready.

- Fixed a bug where the Hero moving to a target to use a Skill with setting “Use Skill on Target” could not be interrupted at all.
- Fixed Hero moving to a target to use a Skill with setting “Use Skill on Target” not being interrupted when doing move action too close to the Hero.
- Now when holding down a Skill with setting “Use Skill on Target” and being locked onto a target, when this target dies the next hovered target will get locked onto, instead of always going into movement.
- Improved the way Skills set the rotation of the Character, which fixes the Hero sometimes not rotating to the new attack direction.
- Fixed Channeling Skills such as Tornado continuously activating after having gone into a menu with the ability active.
Fixed an issue that was causing Force Move to be ineffective on interactables

Patch 0.1.2 is live!

Hello Enforcers,

With this patch we want to provide some quality of life improvements, balancing, and small bug fixes before the weekend hits.

One of the larger changes in this patch is to make the starting experience smoother. We’re introducing a regional weight system to loot. This means you will only find fuses your character can learn, and items they can equip pre-Conduit 1. For example: When playing as the Berserker you will not find power gloves or Elementalist only fuses until reaching Conduit 1 after defeating Razor. This is a quick fix to address some of the community concerns we’ve heard, but we would of course love to hear your feedback.

Note: finding some fuses you can learn but never use is still possible and related to tag consistency (example: add poison damage on elementalist). Also: convert Physical Damage to an Element will add a Damage tag of that element to the skill, meaning you can dynamically alter what fuses your skill can have access to.

We’re currently looking at UI scaling, combat/input responsiveness, collision improvements, fuse variation, fuse tags consistency, and the booster charges. We’ll have more to share in the coming week; however, these changes require a bit more time.

Thanks, and please keep the feedback coming!
The Stitch Heads Team

Fixes & Improvements

Tooltips

Skill tooltips now display all damage elements / types to clarify the damage an ability is doing
By default, item tooltips now display the base stat roll values
Fixed bug with Quick ID not always showing the Item Scanner uses remaining in your tooltip
Fuse tooltips now display all valid skills that can be fused - even if there is more than one
Show decimals in tooltips and skill summary below 10 damage instead of rounding to full numbers like we do when damage values are above 10.
Skills now show their correct stats in tooltips and summaries even when not equipped in action bar / set to active skill.

HUD & Input

While holding Left ALT - all dropped items on the screen force display their name tags, if persistent item name tags are toggled off. Toggle persistent item name tags with “Z”.
Fixed nametags of interactables showing persistently when the persistent outline is toggled
Can now use CTRL + ALT to toggle persistent outlines on interactables
Default Skill Slot 1 (Left Mouse Button) is now move only, you can still replace this with an active skill
Fix: While in the fuse menu / skill creator - using mouse scroll wheel will no longer zoom in or out on your character
Fixed “Move Only” tooltip not showing on the slot itself
Fixed interactable outline of shrines/chests/corpses still showing after being looted
Display message in chat when toggling:

Server Browser & Multiplayer

Display actual error on login failure instead of always displaying “failed to connect account”
Fixed levels of all players being displayed as 0 in server browser
Font for the create game and join private game section in the server browser changed to support capitalisation which hopefully avoids some confusion with capital sensitive server names and passwords
Fixed private games not being found sometimes due to only retrieving the first instance or a limited list
When searching for public games, you will now find more entries - the list was being cut off by invisible private entries so you would only find a handful of public game sessions

Items: Droprates

Trinkets: increased trinket drop rates, they will now drop more commonly in Conduit 1 and after
Kneepads: slightly buffed kneepad droprates throughout the game
Regional Drop Bias: loot will now be biased towards your class up until Conduit 1, meaning that before Conduit 1 you will only find fuses you can learn or loot that your character can equip
- Note: there is no bias towards your current build or learned skills, playing as a Tornado Combat Berserker you will still find Power Punch (Brute Force Tree) fuses even if you do not have this skill.
Resistivity: removed lightning spell damage and now rolls with both fire and ice spell damage (8-12%).

Fuses

Introduced more icons for fuses so you can differentiate between them better
Pierce: now has a 10% damage reduction applied when used
Freezer: set the requirement to Ice Damage instead of Damaging
Burner: set the requirement to Fire Damage instead of Damaging
Shocker: set the requirement to Lightning Damage instead of Damaging
Poisoner: set the requirement to Poison Damage instead of Damaging
Brawler: set the requirement to Physical Damage instead of Damaging
Enabled some fuses for use on minions / physical. Set the required tag to Physical instead of Weapon skill and removed the Berserker requirement of:
- Add Fire / Ice / Poison / Lightning / Physical Damage fuses
New Fuse Replica
- Fuse that increases the maximum amount of minions for Buzzjaw, Lazerbeak, Construct
- Fuse gives -10% all damage to minions
Scrapstorm: will no longer show up in Leon's shop
Ferrokinesis: will no longer scaling with skill effectiveness per level stat - which was leading to overpowered results of quadruple damage on Ferrokinesis
Buzzsaw: no longer reduces Buzzjaw count
BigBoy: Fixed the minion not properly using its melee attack animation
Added an icon for the collidable tag

Audio

Fixed player level up audio voice lines playing for all characters in multiplayer

Hey Everyone,

My name is Tim, and I am one of the founders and the Creative Director at Stitch Heads. I wanted to reach out to you personally now that launch day is over and share some thoughts and my gratitude for the community response so far.

Superfuse is a love letter to Diablo 2. It is our homage to the ARPGs that came before us because we fell in love with that genre and wanted to be a part of it.

I want you to be right there with us as we’re actively looking at your feedback while the team rolls out regular updates that improve the game. We are right at the beginning of this journey, and while our launch into early access was rockier than we would like, we want to shed some light and outline the fixes and changes we are making, over the coming weeks, in an act of transparency so that you know where we are and how the game will change.

Right now, we are all hands on deck and actively working on addressing any issues as fast as possible.

Later today, we will be posting a patch that will address the permanent slowdown that enemies and debuffs sometimes cause and will add in some new fuses, and so much more. The full patch notes can be found here, which detail all the changes: Patch Notes

Coming up, we are working on addressing the following issues:

Improving the booster and consumable feature.
Reducing the amount of drops items and fuses you cannot use or equip
Improving tooltip clarity and stats on items, fuses and skills
Issues with responsiveness and targeting of skills, movement and buffs.
Issues with pathing, obstacle avoidance and general movement.
Increasing variety in fuses and fixing issues with fuses.
Missing settings for FOV and UI scaling.
Issues with stash and inventory use
Lack of loot-sharing options besides FFA
Partial translations missing
Some passives not functioning properly
Variety of bugs with quests and dialogue
Issues connecting to private servers of other players
Crashes in the solar map
Zooming and scrolling overlay map

On top of all of this, part of our team is working on future content updates, and we will have more news about that in the future.

I am also investigating the following requests, and more news will come on that once we have finished addressing everything mentioned above; I have listed some of them below, and please let us know in the comments if you have further suggestions going forward.

Controller Support
Finalising skill trees of each class
Improving end-game content
Improving variety in environments and enemies
Trading systems

Thank you so much for reading this, and I appreciate your continued patience. We are really passionate about the game we are creating, and your continued feedback and bug reports are greatly appreciated.

Stay tuned for more news; we have lots coming to be excited about, and thank you again for being here and playing Superfuse.

Hello Enforcers,

It’s been a little over a day since we went live with Superfuse, and yesterday we already pushed out a small fix that was related to the server issue that a lot of people were encountering the first couple of hours post-release.

Today’s patch (which is coming in later this evening)is a bit larger as we take a first stab at fixing, improving, and balancing aspects of the game based on the initial feedback and bugs you reported.

Some of the more notable ones include addressing the permanent slowdown that enemies and debuffs sometimes cause and we will add in some new fuses

This is only the beginning and we will continue to shape and tweak the game alongside you. We really look forward to embarking on this journey with you.

Dev Diary - Enemies and Elites

Welcome to the second Dev Diary for Superfuse! This time we’re breaking down the various enemies you’ll encounter in our game.

Common Enemies

Common Enemies help fulfill the role of a power fantasy. While all combat should be a challenge, we want players to feel like a superhero by having moments where they can quickly decimate a group of enemies.

We designed common enemies in different classes, and named each class after the enemy's main behavior or function, like Swarmers and Rangers. This allowed us to create consistent bases for enemy designs. With these, we could define rules for what classes can appear together, and in which quantities, to make encounters that are balanced and dynamic.

Where it gets a bit more complicated is with higher ranking enemies, which should provide extra excitement and challenge for players. These enemies are also the prime source of higher-rarity loot.

Elites

The first higher ranking enemy are Elites. These are based on common enemies and come in three different types with increased stats compared to their common version.

First off, we have the “Super Elite”. These come with a telltale blue color, and have a single Elite Modifier, which is generally more stat driven, and they come in packs of two-to-four.

The second type is the “Rare Elite” (yellow). Unlike the blue elites, their packs comprise one Rare Elite and three-to-five minions. They also roll two modifiers, instead of one, and roll from a different pool than the Super Elites. To make them even more distinctive, we filled this pool of stats with more passive effects, like sparking and auras.

“Named Elites” (purple) are the final variation. In contrast to the other two Elite types, these are custom designed and have unique names. They appear at fixed locations in the story, and they can appear in the endgame too.

Villains & Bosses

Our final, and highest ranking enemies, are Villains and Bosses.

Very early in the project, Villains leapt forward instantly from the superhero theme. These enemies are a natural counterpoint to Enforcers (our superheroes and player-characters). Villains give us ways to gate players, challenge them, and offer rewards for their defeat. With special abilities and powerful attacks, Villains offer unique and satisfying combat encounters.

Bosses fill a similar role, but are a little more traditional. Bosses fill a similar role, but are a little more traditional. We've made signature, large-scale fights with greater loot at the end and paired it with major story beats, bringing the Superfuse universe to life.

Until next time…

We hope you enjoyed this peek into the various enemies you’ll face in Superfuse. Come back soon for another Stitch Heads Dev Diary!

Enemy Spotlight - The Foreman

The Foreman Mutated beyond recognition, the Foreman was once one of the highest-ranking workers on Eros. What now remains is a hulking monstrosity, triggered by an event that remains a mystery. All the Enforcers know is that he is dangerous, he knows something, and he needs to be
