A bit more content (and a Steam launch???)


 

It's official: Hyperrail Detective is available for wishlist on Steam

Check there for a more detailed description and extra assets to get a better idea of what you can expect from the game once its ready. While we'll keep an updated demo available here, the full release will be exclusive to Steam.

Speaking of a demo, we just updated the demo with a lot more content and a lot of fixes to provide a better experience for players. Let us know what you think!

Changes include:

  • Notice Boards: there are notice boards posted around the train that you can read to get tidbits of information on battle mechanics, fellow passengers, or the train itself! The messages change, so don't skip a board just because you've come across that car in a previous run!
  • Vending Machines: Got some change? Pop some credits into a vending machine to receive a random item or move you can use to prepare your team for the next battles. You can buy as many as you'd like, so get wild!
  • Hey, that's my room! Wondering where passengers sleep during the journey? Well, now you'll be able to enter some rooms on the train and interact with passengers there. I hope they're all doing alright.
  • Opening packages: There are loose boxes all over the train. You could already push them around, but now you can interact with them to bust them open! There's not much point to it, yet, but you'd be helping clean up the Hyperrail.
  • Pretty colors: We recolored several areas of the game, namely the UI, to give a more cohesive look overall. 
  • Balancing! We realized that some mech and move combinations (looking at you, Z.E.U.S.) were significantly more powerful than others, so we balanced stats overall to make combats more equitable. Several mechs, such as Bicepyro and Shoctor, received buffs, while Thunderbolt's damage.

There are a few other new additions, but we'll leave you to discover those changes for yourself. If you give it a try, let us know what you think! Make a suggestion and we'll do our best to get it into the game.

Be safe out there, Detectives!
