Games Discussion / Re: Wolfpack
Last post by Asid - Today at 12:17:30 AMDevelopment Update April 2026
Wed, 29 April 2026
Hello everyone! This month we have updated the beta version of the game, and we have added the Kriegsmarine grid to the map.
Updating the beta version
As many of you know, the main version of Wolfpack has not been updated in a very long time. We created many upgrades, such as the playable engine room, and Enigma machine, and released them on the beta branch. This version of the game had many critical issues, among them a network bug that made the game very unstable. To fix this, we decided to start from scratch and create a new network protocol. Since Wolfpack is a multiplayer game, the netcode touches pretty much the entire game, so this led to us pretty much reworking the game from scratch. During this time, the beta version remained broken, and the main branch never received any updates. This has led to people believing that the game is not being worked on, and has created a lot of frustration in the community. We are deeply sorry for this.
Since the development of the new version of the game has taken far too long, we have decided to fix all of the bugs in the current beta version. Bug fixes for the beta will be rolled out continuously, and once all of the bugs are ironed out, we will move it to the main branch.
Our most dedicated players have been playing on the current beta, and have used various workarounds to compensate for the bugs present. To avoid disrupting their gameplay, we have created a separate branch called legacy beta, where the old beta version will be preserved for redundancy.
This does not mean we have abandoned the new open world version of the game. We are still working on it every week and making great progress.
The kriegsmarine grid map
During the second world war, the German navy developed a new system for referencing a location on a map. The entire globe was divided into large square sectors, each with its unique two-letter designation (e.g. AE, AF, BA, BB, etc.) with each square, called a quadrant, 486 nautical miles to a side. Each quadrant was further sub-divided into a 3 x 3 matrix, so that there were nine squares. Each of the nine squares were again divided into nine smaller squares.
This grid is not evenly distributed over the world, but is drawn to mostly cover the sea. This means that many of the grid squares are polygonal and uneven in size. This was a nightmare to implement, but now it works and is in the game.

Last post by Asid - Today at 12:11:19 AMCustom Map Makers — Your Tools Are Ready
Wed, 29 April 2026
The Custom Map & Missions Guides are now available, and we're gathering a set of creator-made maps to help us test the upcoming Beta. This phase is all about validating the workflow and ensuring the tools support you the way they should.
Guideline:
Custom Maps Guide — Dagger Directive
Maps don't need to be large or highly detailed. What matters most is helping us confirm the creation pipeline is smooth and reliable.
If you're able to begin work on a map for the Beta, or if you have any questions about the process, please comment below. Your feedback is essential.

Tue, 28 April 2026
We'd like to share an important update regarding our upcoming DLC.
After careful consideration, we've decided to slightly delay its release. The new launch date is May 14th and the DLC will be available at a price of $14,99.
This additional time will allow us to further refine and polish the experience, incorporating valuable feedback gathered during the beta phase and ensuring it meets the level of quality you expect and deserve.
Our goal is to deliver the best possible gameplay experience from day one and this short delay is a necessary step toward that.
We understand that delays can be disappointing and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We truly appreciate your understanding, patience and continued support.

Last post by Asid - Yesterday at 12:27:19 AMDev Blog #3 — New Units, Weather, and Visual Enhancements
Tue, 28 April 2026
Today we're sharing our third Dev Blog for Veterans: Napoleonic Wars! This time, we are excited to showcase an update focusing on battlefield atmosphere, tactical preparation, and visual polish that brings the battles to life.
A major focus for us has been refining the visual and tactical side of the game. We have updated our environment textures and animations, making the maps look richer and more realistic during your battles. Alongside this, we've implemented more accurate and precise battalion formation animations. Your soldiers will now maneuver and form up into clean, disciplined lines and squares.
To further deepen the immersion, we are introducing volumetric smoke and fog. As musket volleys are exchanged and artillery batteries pound the enemy lines, the battlefield will dynamically fill with lingering smoke, adding a dramatic visual effect to every firefight. We are also introducing a new weather condition — Rain.
Finally, preparation and logistics are taking a step forward. We are happy to introduce the Deployment Phase, allowing commanders to carefully position their infantry, cavalry, and artillery before the first shot is fired. To support your armies, we've also added new units to the roster: Generals to oversee the battle, and Ammo Supply wagons to keep your lines firing. All of this ties directly into our balanced and re-worked Morale system, ensuring that tactical decisions — from positioning to supply lines — impact your troops.
We hope you enjoy this look at the latest additions to Veterans: Napoleonic Wars. Don't forget to wishlist us on Steam!

Last post by Asid - April 27, 2026, 12:25:30 AM[BETA] The Fall of the Highschool Kingdom, backwards compatibility fixes, etc
Sun, 26 April 2026
Today marks a major milestone for us - we are releasing the final story episode of Urban Strife!
In this chapter, you will explore the failed kingdom of the Urban Highschool, ruled by its ambitious principal, Mr. King Brown. What began as a remarkable success story - transforming the campus into a thriving, self-sustaining oasis - has taken a darker turn. Rumors suggest King now seeks more than survival... he seeks power. Step into the majestic halls of Urban High, uncover the truth behind King's plans to challenge the Republic, and walk the football field where champions were once made - now repurposed into something far more unsettling.
What Comes Next
Following a short beta test, this update will be pushed to the Public branch in the coming days. After that, we move toward the final act of the game - the moment everything has been building toward: the arrival of the Atlanta horde and the siege that will decide the fate of your Shelter.
We will also continue to release smaller, intermediate updates focused on improvements to systems such as repairs, perks, and overall gameplay balance.
Localization Progress
Once this final story episode is fully proofread and edited by our star editor, Scott Hamm, we will deliver the complete English.po file to the localization team. This will allow translation work to begin ahead of 1.0. While some additional text will still come with the endgame, most of the heavy lifting will already be done, so you can enjoy the full release in your own language. We will start with a selection of widely spoken languages.
UI Improvements
Other Fixes and Improvements
We are getting close. The Shelter won't build itself... and the horde is already on the move.
Stay sharp. Stay awesome.
