Thank you all for your patience, for your care, and for playing Fostering Apocalypse. We really are so grateful and excited to see that we still got some people who care about the world in the wastes.
It's been a long time coming, but we fixed the Perfect Search achievement in Windows! (Mac build coming on Monday, we have to do some weird build stuff)
Apologies for taking so long to fix this- we've both been having jobs, struggling with things, and just generally living human life for a bit with our minds and hands too occupied. However, we truly appreciate those of you who reminded us of the bug, and who waited for us to fix it. Thank you! This one's for you!
There was some weird internal logic with the achievement that made it bug out, so the global stat for perfect searches everywhere is lost forever... HOWEVER, we built these workarounds, based on the information we DO have:
If you have the "Hoarder" achievement, you'll be granted the "Perfect Search" achievement!
Your save file should contain information about the achievement, so if it detects that you've received enough "Perfect" QTEs to give you both achievements, you'll get em!
Lastly, the counter will actually count correctly now, so if you replay, your "Perfect Search" count should work properly now.
So, yeah! Mac users, wait until Monday for an update to your version!
Thank you so much again for your patience, for sharing your screenshots, and sharing the word about Fostering Apocalypse. You're the result of our "Perfect Search" for awesome people. <3

Fostering Apocalypse Bug-Fixing Update 1.17
Hello everyone! After taking a bit of a break from game deving, we're back on business and have pushed an update for Fostering Apocalypse, that hopefully takes care of the most common bug: Del seemingly being in the void, during the last section of the game, alongside some other ones! Let's take a look:
The skip button has been fixed; before, it would let you "skip" the other slideshows in the game, but it would really just turn into a black screen.
When you skipped the intro slideshow while the smoke effect was playing, it would stay there for all the other cutscenes. This has been fixed.
Del and Barrett now appear in the right place, where they should be.
The "Perfect" achievements should work now! In order to give it to those who got it before but had it bugged, you just have to start a game / load a previous game and it should automatically check if you have them or not, and award them if so!
This is what we've fixed so far! We'll continue to fix things as they are reported, and keep creating more stuff. We got some pretty cool announcements coming in and we're really excited to show you what's next! We'll also try to make our Steam community page a little bit more active, so...stay tuned!
Thank you so much for playing Fostering Apocalypse! <3
Fostering Apocalypse Hotfix 1.12
Hello everyone, thank you for purchasing Fostering Apocalypse!
We have now published a quick hotfix for the game, here are the changes:
Changed the dialogue before the zealot encounter, to make it more obvious that the inventory interruption was intentional.
Added a skip button for the opening cutscene, in case you want to go fast! Just hold down the Interact button.
Changed the checkpoint start points and fixed how they load. You will still have your old saves, but if you replay the game, your saves will now update to the new checkpoints.
Fixed a bug where the "Headbanger" achievement would activate, when the Faith option of that section was selected.
Some miscellaneous bugfixes.
If you find any more bugs, please feel free to let us know! We will immediately create a discussion board for those.
Again, thank you for purchasing Fostering Apocalypse and for being patient for us, to make this the best game it can be. ❤
