Hey mercenaries!
We're not thrilled about it either, but we've decided to push the Quasimorph release to October 2nd.

Overall, the main systems are working fine, but we realized that there are many elements that we'd like to rework because our main priority is a stable build that can provide a unique and enjoyable experience. We understand that it's sad news, but let us tell you the reasons and show you what we're working on. Hopefully, it will soften your heart (or whatever you have in its place).

We weren't satisfied with the old world map screen, which lacked useful information that would be handy with the introduction of the contracts system.
In the new map interface, you'll find a lot of useful information: details about available missions, station ownership, factions, and estimated travel time to the mission objective. Plus, you'll easily figure out if you'll make it to the mission on time. Time management is a crucial aspect of the game, so we want to make it convenient for you.
The new interface includes faction ratings and information: here, you can find active faction missions, their strength, and technological levels that affect rewards and loot on tasks.
Also, we're working on a bunch of QoL features: after the prologue and demo, we received a lot of feedback about the convenience of interacting with the inventory and the game interfaces, so we've added:

• Stack splitting
  
• Off-screen enemy markers
  
• Contextual hints
  
• Keybinding customization
  
• Option to remove pixelated fonts

We'll keep adding more similar features to make the game more user-friendly and easier to understand. But, believe us, the game won't become any less challenging.

We'll be back soon to tell you more about these gameplay improvements. ✌️

P.S. We were planning to close access to the free prologue before the Quasimorph release, but due to the delay, it will be available until the end of September. So, make sure to try it out and share your impressions in the Steam community and our Discord[discord.gg].


See you soon!

The dust has settled: a month ago, we launched the prologue Quasimorph: End of Dream, and two weeks later, we released the demo on a Steam Next Fest with completely new content. The result exceeded our expectations: in a month, we doubled the number of wishlists and reached the milestone of 100,000 wishlists!

Thank you for your attention and feedback. We believe those who played both versions noticed how significantly they differ. We wanted to test our mechanics in different conditions to ensure we are on the right track before the release.


Next, we have a direct path to the Early Access release. As you may have noticed on the game's page, we plan to launch the game on August 16th. Just in case, we reserve the right to adjust the release date. Our target is mid-August to September. When we are 100% certain about the release date, we will come back to you with an official announcement. Consider this announcement unofficial for now!


So, the most attentive players of the prologue may have noticed a strange button in the mission launch window.
What is this red button that clearly indicates it's not functioning?
Well, we're planning to paint it green so that it clearly indicates its functioning (by the way, don't forget, we'll also change the font to a more readable one!).

While you're dying, cloning yourself, collecting ramen packs, and traveling between planets, something is constantly happening in the world. Through this tab, you'll be able to explore real-time events. It's like Twitter, but it will work properly!

These events can affect the strength of your employers and change their position in the corporate food chain. New events mean new sidequests and more work for you, Boss.

In the galaxy, there are many poles of influence: corporations, rebel groups, and... who knows what else. By working with specific clients and completing their tasks, you establish relationships with influential individuals. Who knows what they can offer you if they trust you with their problems?
Someone may give you a special storyline quest that can significantly change the situation in the System. And it's not guaranteed that you'll like the result. Someone may unlock unique opportunities and tools for you that are otherwise unavailable.

We will expand the mission and location rotation using planets. Each planet has its key conflict involving different factions. If you decide it's time to boost your reputation with a particular corporation, be prepared to change the balance of power and intervene.

We strive to make each planet offer unique variations of enemies, locations, and conditions. Lava may emerge on the surface somewhere, while the local proletariat may get involved in a corporate war. Maybe it's time to join the revolution?
In the Early Access, in addition to Mercury and Venus, we plan to add Earth, Moon, and Mars. With future updates, we will expand the roster of locations and the events that take place on them. And don't forget about unique enemies: each location will have its own set of distinctive foes.
So get ready to find the balance between the forces in the conflict. And that's not to mention your rivals - other mercenaries. We'll tell you more about the factions themselves in the near future, but for now, let's focus on something urgent!

Look for items on missions that will truly represent value to your clients. Value their time as much as you value your own. And you'll have reasons for that too.

Events won't wait for you. Prologue players already understand the importance of time: Quasimorphosis inevitably grows upwards, so it's best not to linger and keep moving forward. This logic applies to the game map as well: as long as your ship remains stationary, you're in real-time. But as soon as you embark on a journey to a neighboring orbit, you'll enter a cryocapsule, and time will accelerate. What did you expect?

That's why the event feed will be crucial for you. It will serve as a guide, allowing observant players to understand the logic of events and always be on time for the most rewarding contracts. Use your time wisely.

Before the release, we'll return to discuss other release details and new mechanics:

• We have already started selecting different fonts to make text easier to read.
  
• We're revamping the trading and bartering system.
  
• We're redesigning the inventory! We'll bring you more updates on this soon.
  
• Improving AI! For example we'll fix those allies who shoot at you and forget to bring ammo on missions.
  
• Balancing character progression and classes. We have plenty of ideas to make this aspect of the game more interesting, and we'll share them closer to the release!
  
• Round planets. Our planets will no longer resemble d20 cubes with textures; they'll look more like spheres. In the future, the surface of even the planets familiar to us has changed quite a lot and you will be able to study the history of this world by the traces that remained on the planets.

Have a great weekend, and we'll see you very soon! Don't forget to share your experiences in the Steam community and on our Discord[discord.gg].
