Holt
Introduction of the Gauntlet mode
This mode is still in early development so some features are missing and are subject to change. I hope when I have time again to add more to the mode to allow for more endless play time.
This is just a small update and I hope to be back soon to show off more content!

News on Holt as well as the launch of our Kickstarter!
It has been some time since our last community update and I wanted to discuss two important things in the works!
We have now launched a small Kickstarter to help with the funding of chapters 1-2 as well as the new in-works Gauntlet mode coming this summer! The goal, for now, is small but any support and donations would be greatly appreciated! Click the link below to be brought to the page!
Kickstarter
The Gauntlet is a new game mode in the works that will put the player to the test. This game mode is separate from the storyline of Holt and will not impact the story. In the gauntlet, you are charged with protecting an artifact that the alien entities want to steal to create a weapon of mass destruction. You will try to survive as long as you can by upgrading your abilities to ensure you can survive the hordes. New enemy types will spawn in this mode and some will be only unique in the Gauntlet. If somehow the Kickstarter doesn't reach the goal the hope is this new mode will come out in the Summer of 2022 on Steam as part of the Early Access program.
That's all the news/updates for now! We will be constantly updating the Steam as well as my Twitter with any new updates!

The state of Holt
So at this moment, Holt and its development has been slow and almost at a stand still. Over the past couple of months, I have been slowed down with other life issues as well as an urge to work on smaller projects as well. As of this moment, Holt will be delayed for some time and I am not sure when I will be able to pick it back up. I hope for when I finish with my college education I can continue once again. In the meantime, I will be working more on the story and building the universe more. I am sorry for the sad news and I hope Holt will come back better than ever.
