  • Fix: Fattened a few colliders around Freight Lift ceilings to reduce chance of physics glitching through them
  • Improvement: Particles now help highlight the collectable bug bits in The Assembler level (new subtle visual effect)

Patch Notes v1.3.13

Patch Notes v1.3.13



  • NEW: While in ctrl of a Performance Monitor (Perf Mon - the big display screen that among other things tells you how many resources remain in the current area) - you can now hold the 'thrust' button (Spacebar on PC) to execute a scan to reveal the location of all remaining EGO points in the area.



    Quite a number of you have been asking for something along these lines. I'm resisting adding something that completely gives away EGO locations because there are one or two interesting cases that would be spoiled - so you still have to 'work' a bit to find them, but at least now you can get a clue about roughly where to go looking.

  • Fix: Added missing colliders to a specific section in the Launch Ctrl level
  • Fix: Added fatter colliders around some pipes in Launch Ctrl level to reduce chance of physics glitching through them
  • Fix: Prevent HOP to PUP in bug-box before bug-box has been opened.
  • Fix: A few typos corrected in the English version

Patch Notes v1.3.11

Is Ctrl Alt Ego the best immersive sim?

Charlatan Wonder's immersive sim tier list



Charlatan Wonder - in case you haven't heard of him - is an independent player and reviewer of immersive sims who shares his thoughts about them on his YouTube channel.

Every couple of years he publishes a tier list video - it's not supposed to be taken too seriously, and everyone would almost certainly rank the games differently, but still... he knows his stuff... and we're incredibly excited and proud to announce that he's ranked Ctrl Alt Ego at the very top of the top tier!

Yes above the likes of Deus Ex, Prey 2017 and Dishonored! No, we didn't think it could be possible either.

Anyway, here's the video, enjoy!
