Hi everyone let's do another small update ;)
[p]It's good to be back up to a decent production speed, holiday and all that is good, but man it takes a long time to get back up to speed.
But up to speed I am, to the point that the update is now feature-complete and I just need to add some sidequests, hints, get voice lines recorded and do some testing. Working hard to get this one out to you all.
There will also be some announcements regarding futher Bulwark content in the near future as well, but let's not get ahead of ourselves yet...[/p]
Quick recap of the features you can expect

[/p][p]Fun fact, I am retconning some of this stuff into the Falconeer remaster as well, cuz that's just too much fun.
So there's another update. The Behemoth is getting its final pass and looks to be the big update for this year, and it will be here soon.
There will be further Bulwark content but in light of needing to finance all this free content it might turn out to be that old roadmap item that never manifested ;) Announcement on that to follow after Behemoth drops.
And remember buying the small DLC or even the Falconeer or the OST (it's amazing and Benedict Nichols gets supported with that Purchase) supports all these free updates. And it supports development of the third game "ancient waves" production of which will start early '26.
keep leaving user reviews as well (even negative ones, all feedback is appreciated) cuz it tells Steam that this game with worthwhile and worth showing to other potential fans.
Thanks for all the support, cheerio
Tomas
