Hey everyone! Lucas here with an important update on Epitasis.

As you all may know, its been quite a while since the last update to the game - in fact, practically since launch.

After the release of the game, I took a small break and then began working on the console port of the game for both Xbox One and Playstation 4. These ports have taken much longer than anticipated as a solo developer, and one thing that ended up needing to happen was a major engine upgrade. The engine upgrade was about 3 years apart, and thus this took a ton of time to get up and running again on both Windows and Mac. We also implemented a lot of infrastructure as a studio to better situate ourselves for more regular updates that are easier to produce for both platforms and future products, which was a major bottleneck previously.

I'm happy to say that Epitasis is now running on the latest version of Unreal Engine 4, and with it comes major stability and bug fixes. In addition, a major complaint - lighting during night time - has been fixed, with the lighting at night now being totally revamped across the entire game.

Version 1.04

• Night time lighting update - the lighting at night now has a nice blue moonlight to help players see better
• Auto exposure / auto gamma adjusted
• Steam Achievements sometimes not unlocking fixed
• Version number added to main menu
• Content updates from Version 1.02 and 1.03 have been localized
• MacOS content depot now contains Ultra HD wallpapers
• MacOS startup issues fixed as game is now 64bit (game compiled on latest Xcode 11.4, UE4 4.24, MacOS Catalina 10.15.4)
• MacOS ending and credits video fixed as would occasionally appear just black
• MacOS distance field shadows not displaying fixed
• Windows 10 startup issues fixed for certain players
• Various savegame issues fixed

Sale

To support this rather large update and to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of the games launch, Epitasis is on sale for 40% off for the next week - the lowest it's ever been on sale. As a single developer, I also really want to thank everyone for supporting Epitasis and being patient during these times. Thank you.

Additionally, If you've not yet left a review for the game on Steam, doing so would be extremely helpful!

Lastly, Epitasis Games now has a new website. You can check there for additional blog posts and any future games. We also have new social media pages on Twitter,  Instagram, and Facebook.

Thank you everyone!
