Lots of new players this week. Did you find us in the sale, or maybe you saw that Rock, Paper, Shotgun named Sunless Sea as one of the Bestest Best Games of 2014? No matter: you’re very welcome!
We live in exciting times. There is one more update in January before we leave Early Access in early February! Here’s what’s coming up in SUNLESS SEA.
DIAMOND release - coming early Jan
Lots of improvements to combat. New attack characteristics, more variation in zee-beast behaviour. More polished animations and effects.
The map will be very close to complete. As an early Christmas present, we’re posting some of the upcoming islands on art director Paul Arendt’s Tumblr.
There will also be some major story content: Irem and the Pillared Sea, the Empire of Hands, Frostfound and the sun-touched Calumnies.
PEARL release - coming early Feb
Sunless Sea leaves early access! Completed plot and map, lots of polish and glitter.
This has been a huge year for us and many of you have been with us for the whole journey. Thank you for your support, criticism and feedback. Thank you for trusting us to do Early Access right.
We can’t wait to reveal the completed game for you in February; but until then we hope the Diamond release in January will give you lots to look forward to.
Track our progress to launch here.
A very merry winterval, friends!
