Hey everyone, back with another Cubed and Dangerous update to fix some of the most recent bugs and improve some stability across more varied hardware. Bug Fixes Wave levels had an issue where they weren't resetting the stuck enemy sweep timer correctly. This is originally intende
Hey everyone, there was a bug in the previous build of the game that may have impacted the way that save files were migrated from the base game to the DLC. Essentially when running the game for the first time after installing the DLC, the game is supposed to migrate your save fil
Quick fix to Player and Enemy Damage numbers: - Reduce late game (Act3+) enemy damage scaling by 5% - Increase damage (5% to 10%) for all knockback based weapons and reduce base knockback slightly
Added some integrated quick tutorialization in the first level of the game. Nothing too intrusive, and if you're on a second run you'll be blowing through this level pretty quick anyway so it's like a little extra flair.
Welcome to another update! For a while now, there's been some feedback around the leaderboard implementation. I've been testing around with a couple solutions and ended up on a score abstraction which I think is working well, so it's in the live build now! Also I've enabled globa
Thanks everyone for all the feedback, along with the bug fixes and performance enhancements over the last couple of days, I'm happy to announce Cubed and Dangerous 1.6! New Missions I've cleaned up some of the work in progress code for the new mission types, and added them back i
Back again today with another optimization patch. The game's physics engine and enemy AI have been optimized significantly in the past, so there shouldn't be any significant CPU bottlenecks but if you run into some definitely let me know! I'm very curious to hear from anyone tryi
Quick patch to fix a few bugs related to offscreen rendering (collection window, field manual, map, inventory portrait). Additionally optimized some shader code around the outline pass, and improved frame capping for high refresh rate monitors. Edit: There was another small chang
Hey everyone, I released an update today from some of the collected feedback and bug reports over the last month or so. Below you'll find some of the ideas behind the changes, and some other surprises! Weapon Balance Player weapons have had a small balance patch. Most weapons hav
Doing a wild thing and defaulting the new music tracks to "on" for the main build! If you want to go back to original music, you can still toggle it at the main menu with the "]" key. I'll be adding some more tracks throughout the week, and doing a big full post about this when t
Hey everyone, as some loyal fans have pointed out, the gameplay music (particularly the non "chase" gameplay theme) is a bit too tension oriented and less action oriented which sets the wrong pace for the game. This potentially sets incorrect expectations of the gameplay from the
Quick change to itemization in levels to help with the dead end problem. There are still some dead ends possible, and I think this is good for the risk / reward of exploration and weighing that against the escalation time. But now collectibles are a bit more likely to spawn in ro
Combo: - Increased time between hits to feel better when you cross the gap to keep the combo running - Added a combo timer bar to visual show how quickly it is decaying - Fixed the alpha fade to be less linear and grouped to the low end of the bar Consumeables: - Fixed a bug with
Some quick updates to the "Second Wind" Legendary perk: - Change from 20 health, to 25% health so it will scale a bit later in game to offset scaled enemy damage - Add additional invulnerability frames to avoid immediate damage or multihits - Add a knockback effect to push enemie
Hey everyone, the game has received quite a bit of renewed attention this year and that's produced a lot of great feedback to help improve the game. Today I've deployed version 1.5 of Cubed and Dangerous to accumulate all of the changes for feedback collected so far. Hope you enj
Hey everyone, I've just made some significant changes to aspects of the game's economy and itemization today. This set of changes is focused around improving the shop experience, balancing some aspects around economy focused builds, and some other new changes! What Isn't Changing
A Cubed and Dangerous Update is coming very soon. It may be available during the first couple days of the Summer Sale if I can manage it, but there are a few bugs with the update that I don't want to risk destabilizing the game over. What's Coming The patch is focused on making t
Hey Everyone, I've been busy working on some of the core mechanics and fixes for Sheep for the Stars ahead of Steam Next Fest, and have been accumulating some changes and updates to Cubed and Dangerous that just went live. Thank you all for your continued support and feedback on
I humbly thank all of your for following along on this journey. Cubed and Dangerous has changed so much since early inception, through to playtesting, release and beyond. Your feedback has been immensely valuable in shaping the game into what it is today. Many players already hav
Hey everyone, Just deployed a quick bug fix to the game. There was an issue with how difficulty scaling was being applied at cumulative challenge levels below 5. This fix corrects the calculation, and will make challenge level 0 behave closer to the intended design, but we'll mon
