Volt Patrol : My new game

Hello everyone :)

I wanted to share with you my game Volt Patrol that i am developing since a year.
It's a different genre and, like Pharmakon, i try to make it original.

Quickly: Volt Patrol is a stealth driving game.

So, if you are intrigued, you can visit the store page here to get more details and (maybe?) add it to your wishlist ;)

Update !

Hello everyone :)

I updated the game to balance the difficulty and remove a bug from switching language.
I hope it will improve your experience with the game.

I would like to see your review about the game on the steam page so don't be shy ;)

UPDATE: FIX

I updated Paralysis description because the text was off.

Also, I added advices to help players with tips for a better strategy.
I met several players having problems with the difficulty of the game.
I admit the game is hard to master if it's not your kind at all.

I hope these hints will help players to understand what they could change in their strategy to solve the puzzle-combats.

Thanks for being in our community ;)

Ability description improved

I see players confused about how Persistence ability works,
So I updated the description to something clearer.

Good game!

Pharmakon with better tags!

]Hello dear community!

Today, I need you to help players to find Pharmakon.
To do this, it could be great if you could add these following tags on Pharmakon Steam page (http://store.steampowered.com/app/654660/Pharmakon).

The goal of this is to appear in search results for players looking for content offered by Pharmakon. No more and no less.

How to add tags:


Thanks for helping me on this! Running a niche game requires an awesome community!

The Overpowered Noobs Interview

Laurrel Allison from the game press website OPN (Overpowered Noobs) recently interviewed me about Pharmakon and game development!
You can read it here:

Anyway, cool.

UPDATE: Game Balance

Today, I updated Pharmakon to provide a better gaming experience. I balanced some aspects of random generation in the game to avoid combat dead ends.

If you already got and played the game and you felt random generation was unfair. You can try again ;)

No popup menu will stay hidden forever!

In a recent review video recorded by Pion, a bug happened in which UI panel menu popup appearing usually while we hover a beast wasn't able to be visible.

The thing is that a condition in the game was saying that if a beast's attack was cut mid-shot by the attacking beast's death, the UI wasn't able to be displayed again.

So, today i fixed it ;)

Here is the video :

Pharmakon is available now!

Yeaaaaaaah!

3 years of work and finally i managed to release my game all by myself :)
I am so happy, that's a huge achievement for me and i hope you will enjoy to play Pharmakon!
