New Lead Programmer & Patch Update Announcement

Hello Fellow Souls!
We've got a couple big announcements to make today regarding the future of Save Our Souls.

Our first announcement is the addition of Joseph "PhantomArchangel" Zellerkraut to the Relentless Games Studio team as our new Lead Programmer! Since coming on board, he has been hard at work improving the overall quality of Save Our Souls. You've probably already seen him on the Steam forums responding to reported issues and other feedback. Please give him a warm welcome!

Our next announcement is that Save Our Souls will be receiving a major update! This update is currently in development, with the goal of having it released by the end of year. This update will contain many features, fixes, and changes that are expected to dramatically improve the gameplay experience. Currently, these updates include:
- Optimizations and performance improvements
- New options for audio and controls, as well as improvements to the existing graphics options
- Refinement of combat mechanics (combat roll should be useful now!)
- Improved animations and cut-scene quality

Like many of you, we realize the potential Save Our Souls has, and we are eagerly working to see it realized. We appreciate your patience and support in the meantime. You can expect news updates and more announcements from us in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

New Update Available.

Hi everyone, an update is available for SOS, as well as a price drop. This update takes care of major technical issues such as long load times, high memory usage, freezing and crashing which some players have been experiencing, as well as improved overall performance. Players on high and low end hardware can expect a much better game play experience, significantly faster load times and improved frame rates. All these updates are mostly under the hood but since the technical issues were at the top of the list for the majority of the players I felt they had to be taken care of first of all before a major content update. None the less, players can expect more updates soon that will bring new content and features to the game and more technical improvements including some that have been requested in the community hub.

As usual please leave some feedback in the community hub, thanks.

Relentless Games.

New Update Coming Soon

Hi everyone, I apologies for the long silence, it's taken some time but rest assured a big update is on the way that aims to eliminate the major technical issues with the game such as the long load times and poor performance which have being the biggest problem for most players. As well as a few game play issues that players have talked about in feedback thread.

After the update players on both high end and low end hardware can expect a much better game play experience, thank you for your patients.

Relentless Games.

The first Update is now available, It includes performance optimization and bug fixes.

Hi guys, this update includes performance optimization for better fps mostly in the levels with combat sequences in the story mode, excluding the last chapter, and waste land levels, but expect these to be worked on in the next update, other tweaks include a lot of bugs that have been removed and fixes to some of the character animations, more updates coming soon and some new content later. Its been tested but please let me know if this update has a negative effect in any area of the game.

Thanks for all your patience.

List some major fixes you would like to see in the next Update.

Hi guys, thanks for purchasing the game, even with the negative reviews a lot of you are still willing to give the game a chance. Most of the negative reviews and reception has been due to the large number of bugs and glitches in the game. With your help I would like to fix some of what you guys think are the biggest problems with the game, of course I can't promise to fix absolutely every problem but I'm really willing to to push for the fixes so there can be a much improved experience in the next update.

Thanks again guys.
