We are very happy to present you a very special Convoy Games holiday gift
Before we dive into the changelog, we would like to talk about the backstory for this update.
We started working on our next game pretty soon after the Convoy release in 2015. Eventually, Landinar: Into the Void was released into Early Access in September 2018. In a wave of enthusiasm to marry the two games and their stories, creating a shared universe between them, our enthusiasm and ambition towards Convoy also started to grow again. No matter how frustrated we could get over this game from time to time, we never stopped loving Convoy.
Our knowledge and abilities have improved immensely over the years, and while we still work hard on Landinar: Into the Void every day, we decided to grab some moments to return to Convoy and present you with this holiday gift. With love, from Convoy Games to you.
Most importantly, we managed to fix some persisting issues which we weren't able to fix in the old Unity engine. We also added some new content and features for you to enjoy over the holidays.
Convoy update 1.1.52 - full notes:
- Updated the Unity engine from v4 to v2017.
- Fixed performance UI.
- Fixed problems with higher or unusual resolutions.
- Fixed an issue with lethal objects not being removed on end of combat.
- Fixed a broken part of the Omni-directional Booster mainquest.
- Removed the option Pixel Perfect from the options menu.
- Added post processing effects.
- Added an option to disable post processing effects.
- Added key binding options.
- Added 14 new scenarios.
- Added 1 new car with 4 variations.
- Added more road details like bushes and rocks.
From the entire team at Convoy Games: Happy Holidays, everyone!
Cheers,
Sander, Sipke, Roy, Erik, Kevin and Ryanne
Edit:
A patch was pushed to fix the loading screen issue.
We are currently looking into the missing achievements and performance issues.
Introducing: the Convoy Games Collection Bundle!
Owners of Convoy received a 33% discount coupon when Landinar: Into the Void launched in Early Access in September. These coupons were only available for a short time and some people missed this opportunity.
Steam doesn't allow us to generate our own coupons, so instead we have worked out this bundle so everyone can benefit from the same deal.
With the Convoy Games Collection Bundle you will get 33% discount for buying both our games, or a 33% discount on either game if the other is already in your Steam Library!
The game is already fun to play, and we feel it is time to involve players to shape the final parts of the game and its development. The early access release is an open world sandbox where you are free to explore the universe, take on missions, find tech and build your own space ship.
With this early access release our main goal is to complete a story mode campaign. During early access we will also keep expanding the game while listening to you as a player to pinpoint our priorities and additional features.
Join the community on Discord to share your ideas and feedback!
Landinar: Into the Void is an action-packed neo-noir adventure in a backwater quadrant under tight control of the Empire. You play as a captain down on his luck, with more enemies than friends and a knack for getting in trouble.
Deal with people, take on contracts, fight your enemies, collect new tech, build your spaceship and join the rebellion to liberate the quadrant! You might even run into some familiar Convoy faces...
After presenting our demo at EGX Rezzed 2018, we are currently working on our early access release, coming out Q3 2018.
Want to stay up to date on the development? Check out our website for devblogs, follow us on Twitter and join our Discord.
We've just uploaded a small update containing some minor fixes for the scenario editor. Additionally, Sleffie has adjusted some scenarios based on player feedback.
More importantly, the Convoy Sound Track will be released on Steam today! This is long overdue, but it's here at last! We also released the Convoy Soundtrack Edition which includes the game and soundtrack! Hooray! :)
The Convoy OST is a full length album containing all 17 songs from the game. There are the 8 ambient tracks, along with the 8 action tracks. The "bonus" credits song is also included!
All the proceeds from the soundtrack go directly to the artist since we feel he deserves it more than we do. It's his work, after all. :)
