It’s been a while, but ICARUS.1 is released and out now! My first attempt at a 3D / first person adventure game.

You can get hold of ICARUS.1 from the following places for PC:
Steam: - store.steampowered.com/app/395470/
Humble Store: - https://www.humblebundle.com/store/icarus-1

-

Abandoned for decades, crew MIA, the ICARUS.1’s job was to store mined minerals from the systems outlying planets and perform research duties. Orbiting the local sun to maintain it’s solar energy and live up to its namesake, it provided a lucrative business for JME corp.

After contact was lost no rescue attempt was ever made with the stricken station, instead the project was mothballed along with its precious cargo - a cover up some may say.

Many stories about what happened have become lore but Sam isn’t focusing on these ‘stories’, the goal is the cargo and the wealth it will bring.

Update (35.19) live! Kindling, Options, Fonts and more

http://store.steampowered.com/app/319560

Thank you for all your feedback since it’s launch just under two weeks ago. 

I’ve addressed issues of the Kindle tool and also AI balancing in this build. There are now options to turn Kindling ‘off’ for both 1UP and CPU players. You will also have the option to change the 'Flag’ speed effecting how fast populants are made in settlements. These options are located in the options panel on the Island Overview page (The Question mark located bottom left of screen) 

I also wanted to list some keyboard short cuts that may help: 

1 - (When on in the options) switch to Kindle 
2 - Switch to terraforming tool and open earth totems 
3 - Open Wind totems 
4 - Open Fire totems 
p - pause 

And then here’s a cheeky one, if you want to 'grab’ the screen to a PNG, press 'c’! (Make sure you save the file with a .png on PC) 

Change log - 35.19 

Additions 

  • Mouse edge screen scrolling when in full screen mode 
  • Options added to have 'no kindle’ option available to 1up and cpu players 
  • 'Flag speed’ option added for faster games 
  • Above two functions available in options when viewing island overview screen 
  • Display of how many islands left to unlock the universe 
  • Complete Font overhaul :D

Bug Fixes 

  • Overall game percentage displays correct values 
  • Amulet corrections made. A correct amount of amulets now present in Universe! 
  • Players names can now be 2 or more characters 
  • Island 2 now made easier 
  • Kindle AI balancing 
  • Esc key windows game and restores it to fullscreen 
  • Correct display of last settled players in Universe 
  • Wonder punch bug fixed 
  • When paused on 'timed’ islands, counter is paused

Non Steam Users

Reprisal Universe will be updating across all other distribution platforms within the next week :D

Pleased to announce the second release of Reprisal Universe’s beta (0.2) is now available to download!!

There’s been a number of changes since the first release. UI has been improved a bit, building flags will not appear until they have enough ’populant’ to be kindled! The beginnings of the story mode is added and also tutorials are added to the first two islands. Memory slots are streamlined to one and heaps of new SFX added.

The beta still only contains the Campaign Islands. Feedback on things like how hard it is / bugs / anything, welcomed. You can post feedback via the Steam forum here:

More Saturday updates. Running in HD 720 mode - New icy level tile set. Also showing the new ‘land’ manna cost indicator. What you cant see in a still screen is that all the populants animations are now 8 frames, double what they are in the current version.

Oh and the actual grid area of the land has been increased slightly giving you more of a view than in the current version :D
