January, 2026.
Update 1.0.6K: Survival Combat Improvements, Stability/Bugfixing, and more.
Update 1.0.6K.1
This update focuses on making survival combat much more fluid, enjoyable, and stable. Fixing key frustration-points like long rounds, easy rounds, stuck demons, or invisible demons. It also fixes some potential issues during higher rounds, like glitching audio, double loot, and weapon memory leaks. These were noticed because higher rounds are now very possible to reach with the new stability fixes! This update also adds improved visuals/graphics/AI to the Residential Transport Zone, and fixes many issues with the Shotgun. This sets a very stable foundation for future combat plans! There will be many more small but important changes which dramatically boost gameplay in these areas coming soon. Player/Companion animation, Global Audio Limits, 'Bio' Lighting, and Player Damage, has all had some improvements too.
This has also been a good chance to finish all the Steamworks Store/Library Images, and prepare to finalise the Reveal Trailer. All to be public very soon! Q1-Q2 2026 is my estimated deadline for the 'Coming Soon' page on Steam.
If you would like to test Elysia Sector: The Unknown, or your hiring and want to check out my work before making a commitment, make a request for a key and I will get back to you! My current testing build pipeline is through Steamworks.
