*Removed confusing option "use OST setting in campaign" and make it set automatically depending on OST setting.

Hi everyone,

We've got some long requested music related features live right now!

• Players can import their own music library. MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG Vorbis are supported!
  
• Players can customize the built in OST, enabling or disabling tracks as they want!
  
• Players can choose to play all original OST, only their custom tracks, or a mix of both!
  
• Campaign mode now supports the shuffle music button in the pause menu
  
• Burst pistol recoil has been reduced (yeah kind of random).

All instructions and configuration options for the new music features are found in the audio settings menu.

Have fun!

NOTE:

It was brought to my attention the new art for the album looked a lot like art from the Cyberpunk show, I've removed it until I can investigate! I am very sorry about this.

We have joined forces with the team behind indie FPS SPRAWL to bring you this XMas update!

The Sprawl team has kindly gifted us the Megatech A8 shotgun! This is a powerful shotgun which also lets you SHOTGUN JUMP. The Megatech A8 comes pre-unlocked in firefight, and has been added to the Rogue Steel shotgun starter card.

Keep an eye out for Severed Steel content coming to Sprawl soon!

That's not all! We also have a 4 level XMas mini-campaign brought to you by Severed Steel mapper Ouroborosso. Battle Edensys through snow and Christmas themed levels, featuring new slippery floor physics. Try shotgun skating with the Megatech A8!

You can find the new campaign by choosing "Campaign" on main menu, then choosing "Bonus".

Finally, the daily challenges for the rest of December will feature festive enemies and frozen floors!

Thank you as always for playing Severed Steel! Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and happy new year!

P.S. We are right at the threshold of Overwhelmingly positive, one moment we are in another we are out. So if you have a moment, please leave a review and help stabilize our position! We would hugely appreciate it!

-New Option: Synchronize semi-auto akimbo shooting
-Fix another situation where gibbed enemies made player drop weapon.

Hi everyone,

I've been working on something in secret for a little while now, and it's ready! The highly requested feature of DUAL WIELDING is now available in Severed Steel.

To use it equip the Gravity Cannon, which has now been unlocked for all players by default. You can also now choose to start rogue runs with the Gravity Cannon. The Gravity Cannon can be selected in New Game + if you want to play campaign with it.

There's also random other bits of polish, see patch notes for info.

The game is also on deep discount for this occasion! If you'd like to show your support maybe gift some copies to your friends!

Thanks for reading this and thanks for playing Severed Steel!

-Matt
