As Dr. Farnsworth would say : Good news everyone!

The original Red Trigger from 2016 is now available once more! After downloading the patch, you will now get a choice on which version you wish to play : The Remake or the Original.

You also probably noticed that we have pushed lots of little updates since the launch, and with the one we pushed today, they form version 1.0.1.

Here's some highlights of things we fixed/added :

- More audio sliders have been added and they should now all work as intended.
- You can now see which items you've scanned and which audio logs you've found and activated by clicking on the ''Collectibles'' button in the main menu. You can also reset the progress on those if you want to hunt for them again. You can also access this menu by pressing ''L'' in-game.
- It is no longer possible to ''float'' by spamming ''R''.
- The holograms of the audio logs have been mostly fixed, their hair and facial hair should render correctly now.
- The action music in Level 4 no longer stops if you die after hitting the checkpoint.
- Many collisions have been improved.
- Some typos we've found have been fixed.
- Some optimizations has been done so that the game runs better.
- Achievements should now unlock normally.
- We now added a slider for the sensitivity of the camera in the Y axis.

Here's our next steps :
- Removing the fact that you can jump once anytime while falling from a platform, it's a remnant of a prototyped mechanic.
- Implementing the save/load feature (we are still ironing out some things there).
- Have the platforms of Level 8 sink gradually into the big lava block.
- Fixing the visuals for the tutorials.
- Fixing the dialogues where they can sometimes repeat or get interrupted.
- Many other smaller bug fixes and optimization.

Thanks so much for your patience, understanding and support, it truly means a lot. We'll continue to work hard in the coming months to polish the game as much as possible so you can have the best experience possible. If you find any bugs, the best way to report them to us is by writing to us in our Discord[discord.gg], in the #bugs-report channel, with the specific repro steps. We'll be happy to tackle them one by one for you all.

Have fun, and enjoy!

Hi everyone!

As you may remember, Red Trigger initially released in 2016 as a free-to-play. It was my (Max) final student project for university. Since then I worked in the Triple-A industry to gain experience, and I worked on titles like Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla. In 2020, I decided to make the jump like I always wanted to, and founded Bold Spirit Game Studio. Since then, we, as a team of 15 talented developers, are developing a sequel to Red Trigger. We've also decided last January to remake the first game to revitalize the fanbase, gain new players and make the series relevant again. We're proud to say that this remake is now LIVE! It is an update to the original game. If you've already downloaded the game before, you're in luck, you will get the remake for free!

Red Trigger Remake has been made from the ground up, and there's a lot of new features! For example :

• A scanning system à la Metroid Prime!

[/h3]
You can now scan the environment and gain information about the world you're exploring! Is the wait for Metroid Prime 4 getting unbearable? This should at least scratch your itch!

Audio Logs and spoken lines!

[/h3]
The main character, Red, is now voiced! It really adds to the experience. You can also find audio logs and start to piece together what Red Trigger's universe is about, and learn more about its mysteries and dark secrets. This is also a teaser for the story of Red Trigger 2, let's see if you can guess what will happen!

Brand new artstyle!

[/h3]
We've remodeled everything in the game from scratch. We still have a minimalistic artstyle, but it's still way more detailed than before, therefore much more pleasing to the eye haha! We've also used Unreal Engine 5 this time, and we make major use of Lumen technology, which lets the colors and lights bounce off the walls naturally. It really makes the game glow, especially with our artstyle.

Vaulting!

[/h3]
You can now vault automatically when you get close to almost any ledge. It really tremendously improves the movement and removes frustration of getting really close, but not quite, to the top of a platform.

Better physics!

[/h3]
We've completely remade the logic of the game from scratch, so the game fixes a lot of issues from the original, like the physics of the Red Trigger. You should not encounter frustrating issues anymore, like when you failed & died even if you did everything right.

New audio effects and music!

[/h3]
We've added a LOT of new sound effects and remastered the old sounds that we reused. We've also completely remastered the music, and we have a brand new one for the credits sequence!
[/list]

We really hope you enjoy the game! Please note that the save/load system is not yet enabled, we want to test it and polish it a bit more. Speaking of which, we know of a couple of bugs in the game and we are hard at work to fix them! We push an update pretty much everyday. If you encounter any issues, the best way to report bugs is to join our Discord and post them in the Bug-report channel : https://discord.gg/e78qasuchY

In the meantime, thanks for your understanding if you encounter bugs, we really want to deliver you a stable and optimized experience, but we are a small team, so we will keep working hard to give you that!

We initially wanted to keep this game for the original game and have a new Steam page for the remake, but that sadly has been refused. Therefore, the original game is no longer available (EDIT : You can now choose which version you want to play when launching the game!).


We will be attending Gamescom for the very first time this year! We will have a booth in the B2B section, where you can play the remake and talk with us devs! Come see us at the Quebec booth Hall 3.2 B 040g C 041g!

Hi everyone!

I am incredibly proud to finally show you the first trailer for Red Trigger 2!

The Steam page is also live! Wishlist now!

Hi everyone!

Today, we're proud to announce Red Trigger Remastered!

With the Steam page and trailer of Red Trigger 2 coming in the next days, a lot of players will probably hear of the series for the first time, and may be interested to play the original game. If you're one of those people, hi! Really happy and flattered by your curiosity in the Red Trigger universe.

The original Red Trigger game was my final student project, so naturally, it's a bit rough around the edges at times, and you can encounter some bugs and unreliable physics. Since then, I worked on Triple-A titles and gained a lot of experience. At the moment, we are working hard on the sequel, but we'll also take the time to remake from scratch the first Red Trigger using the tech we will have developed for Red Trigger 2. We'll also add in some minor details to better link the original with the sequel. Therefore, we will release the Remaster shortly before the release of Red Trigger 2, which will be in a couple years from now.

To new players, you can either wait for the remaster, or play the original game now, or both, it's up to you! I hope you have a great time!

To speedrunners and fans of the original, don't worry! The original game will still be available for download, so you can have both versions of the game.

Thanks a lot, and stay tuned for the trailer of Red Trigger 2 coming out really soon!

Hi everyone!

A new update is now available! I hope this will make the game better for you all!

Here's a list of every changes :

- Fixed the buttons, you can only activate them when you're close. A bug was introduced last update that allowed to activate them from far away in some situations.
- SteamVR shouldn't launch anymore when launching the game. It was happening to some users that had a VR headset.
- Screen Tearing shouldn't happen anymore. Let me know if it still sadly does.
- Fixed a checkpoint orientation, after the Scanning Room.
- Some updates on the timer.

That's all the changes! Thank you for your patience, and I hope you can now enjoy the game even more! Let me know if you have any more feedback, if I sadly introduced some new bugs (It's always possible) and I'll do my best to fix it!

Additional info : As some of you may know, I've been working in the Triple-A industry for more than 3 years now, in order to gain experience. Some exciting news are coming up in the next years! In less than a year, I'll pursue my lifelong dream to found my own indie studio, and I'll start making the longer and priced sequel to Red Trigger! I'm super excited about it, and I hope you will be too! Stay tuned for more info next summer!!!

Again, I can't thank you enough for everything, for playing my game, leaving reviews, making videos, etc... It truly means a lot and is deeply appreciated. Thank you.

And now, game on!

Enjoy!

Hi everyone!

A new update is now available! I hope this will make the game better for you all!

Here's a list of every changes :

- Rebindables keys! There's now a new tab in the Options menu where you can rebind your keys to your preference, and they save. Sadly, it's not possible to rebind movement inputs, but I've made some changes so that both WASD and Arrow Keys can allow the player to move. Let me know if you want me to add some more default keys like those, like on the numpad. Please note that the tutorials do not adapt to your rebind keys.
- Checkpoints will now respawn the player looking in a predetermined way, instead of where the player was looking when going through that said checkpoint. This time, the player will always be facing the right direction.
- Added a failsafe with the KillZ Volume. Some players experienced a very rare glitch that made them fall off the map, and would be killed by the KillZ Volume, which would soft-lock the game. Players will now instead respawn and can continue playing.
- Revamped the laser room of Level 6, since 95% of players didn't go through it the intended way. Red Triggers in this room now raise to the ceiling, except one. Those will crush the player. The intended way is to raise one or two Red Triggers to block lasers and gradually making your way through.
- Modified the color of some buttons to make the visual language consistent. Blue buttons are temporary/timed, green buttons are permanent.
- The game no longer flips to windowed mode when finishing the game. If you're in windowed mode, which is much more rare, it will go to fullscreen. If you're in fullscreen, it will stay that way.
- Fixed the sound of the door opening in Level 8, it now only plays once like intended.
- Removed some unnecessary platforms in Level 6, in the ''Claws'' part, where the player could land on some platforms and couldn't progress unless jumping off and respawning.
- Added collisions for the destructibles in Level 8. In very rare cases, a part would land on the path and block progress. It is no longer possible.
- Changed the color of the corrupted lights in Level 8. Many players confused them for Red Triggers, so they are now orange-reddish instead of pure red.

That's all the changes! This was a pretty big update. I honestly didn't think it was possible to add rebindable keys without C++ and only Blueprint, but I did find a way in the end. Thank you for your patience, and I hope you can now enjoy the game even more! Let me know if you have any more feedback, if I sadly introduced some new bugs (It's always possible) and I'll do my best to fix it!

Note : This update has been a long time coming, and I'm deeply sorry that it took this time, but I was focusing on gaining experience in the industry on Triple-A titles, and still am. That way, I can bring you better experiences in the future. Do not worry, I still intend to make a longer and priced sequel, but it will only be in a couple of years. Thank you for your understanding, and I'm very eager to bring you more fun, I hope you'll love it when it happens!

And now, game on!

Enjoy!
