Hope your year will be great :) We've been working hard on improving gameplay and adding new features/content to the game. The difficulty levels should be way more consistent when it comes to the Infection behavior such as hunting, making the game more accessible to new players.

We made it proximity/spatial too for more immersion. Currently push-to-talk only, but we will implement the option to switch between constantly on and push-to-talk in coming updates. We only have tested this through Steam between two people, so let us know how it works for you. The audio compressor used on the microphone input is a bit iffy still and loud noises will distort (albeit at a low volume due to compression). Bandwidth usage has been optimized quite a bit, but perhaps could still use some improvements :) Merry Christmas~Version 0.08 - AfterlifeDec 25, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsDeath is not the end, but you may wish it was when finding your body consumed and repurposed by the infection. Yet... Your consciousness remains. Try your best to influence the infection, either making it stronger or weakening it and perhaps even destroying it from the inside out. But this realm is governed by the infection itself and the struggle is far from easy... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42221943/f461681133385fa4158f85867e7b9622cfce4893.jpg n the Afterlife you will still have to fight the Infection, whilst avoiding the Seekers.

These bugs were extremely hard to find, since they only happened in very specific situations and with all the RNG in the game's systems it was hard to find out which. Yet they happened frequently enough to be of (major) annoyance. However major progress has been made this week and the game should be a lot more stable now. Let us know if you encounter issues with starting missions though, as bug reports are invaluable in finding and fixing bugs. We are but two people after all :) Suggestions and bug reports can be posted on the Steam Discussions or our Discord server (check links on store page). Bugfixes: Fixed rare host game freezing bug on a specific RNG seed with a specific combination of level generator patterns, Fixed rare host game crash bug on Large ship sizes, if one of the Ship Systems was assigned to the first room but didn’t get created due to a flaw in the rooms counter with specific RNG seeds during initial level generation, Fixed random freeze/crash caused by the room counter to resetting properly when starting a new mission, Fixed and tweaked various small issues in the mission and level managers, Fixed Flamethrower not turning off when switching inventory whilst it is on.

Bugfixes: Fixed the Reactor Core still showing Geiger after having shut down, Fixed some clients not ending the mission on mission end if the team died, caused by their game thinking not all players are in the lobby, Fixed some clients in rare occasions not ending the mission if another client presses the “end mission” button, due to temporary desync or slow connection, Fixed mission not ending when all players are in Afterlife but the Infection is also dead, Fixed some pathfinding issues with certain level elements, Fixed light clipping in T level section, Fixed cleanups counting up with a random value, Polish: Decreased overall hunt lengths and limited hunt lengths to 1:30 to prevent excessive long hunts, Removed ghostly figure from the Source monster, Decreased Source monster kill radius to be more fair, Lowered Source monster speed on Hard difficulty missions, Afterlife players can no longer repair Systems or destroy Nodes if the time runs out, Afterlife “scanning” effect is a little faster now, so it’s easier to see the environment, Put a limit on the amount of Seekers that can spawn, Greatly reduced Seeker chase distance to make things more fair, Seekers are faster now, Seekers will now be randomly selected to go to the location of where a Lymph Node got attacked, or where a Ship System got repaired, Adjusted some of the monster sounds, Updated some of the interior textures for the Lobby, Updated some of the interior textures for the mission ships, Some minor updates to the shaders, allowing for animated ‘blinkenlights' and allowing for emissive parts of the environment to go red when the power goes out, Minor optimizations in the level generator, Minor optimizations in the infection update code. The Afterlife Tasks: In the Afterlife you will still have to fight the Infection, whilst avoiding the Seekers. Make your way over to key infected areas of the ship, such as Ship Systems, and undo the damage caused by the Infection. Find the red Lymph Nodes and destroy them to have another chance at killing the Infection. Beware that the Seekers may respond to you hurting their master. You’re on a time limit however, so no time to relax! Find and destroy those Nodes and fix the ship, it’s the only way to escape time and the finality of death. Special Tasks: The basic framework for Special Tasks is in place and the first category of Special Tasks is implemented: - Repairing Ship Systems. This is done in the Afterlife currently, but Tools for repairing whilst still alive will become available once the Store becomes functional. In future updates two more categories will be implemented: Retrieve objects and bring them to the Lobby before the Infection gets to them, Rescue crew members before they get infected and turned into monsters. New Random Events: Added p...Developers Beta Testing LIVEDec 3, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsWe play the game, answer your questions and try to find those pesky bugs/test new features. There's some new features and things in Afterlife, some texture updates and the game engine has been updated to the latest stable version (Godot 4.2). The two developers of the game will be playing, as well as some friends permitting timezones and schedules :) See you in space~Patch 0.07cOct 30, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsBugfixes: Fixed clients getting stuck on a black screen if the host leaves the session, Fixed Seekers not chasing/attacking client-side player ghosts, Fixed wall monster having a constant ghostly appearance, instead of fading into view sporadically, Infection Eyeball now doesn’t trigger a second death if a player is already dying, Polish: Added mouse sensitivity to options menu, Added mouse X and Y invert to options menu, Added keyboard control settings to options menu, Gave more space to the Team Stats, so long names fit, Added player death counter to Stats, Added player cleanups counter to Stats, Player deaths and cleanups are now saved to file & cloud sync, Adjusted Seeker sight distance, Added Afterlife countdown timer, Mission now ends when all players are dead and when the Afterlife counter has reached zero Weakening the Infection now adds time, Getting hurt by Seekers now decreases time, Getting too close to the Infection Source now decreases time, Infection Eyeball now doesn’t look around during cooldown.

Patch 0.07bSep 21, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsThe Source on the Hunt: The ship itself deforms, grabs and bites at you as the first monster of Disinfection makes its return. The Infection Source itself may decide to try and make you a part of it once again, beware the claws, beware the gnashing teeth. The Seekers: In the Afterlife things are far from over. The Infection Source will send its mind-altering viruses after you. Keep evading them lest they weaken you until you won’t be able to fight at all. You may even turn into on of the Infection’s dreaded abominations… The mission will now automatically end when all players are dead and when all players in Afterlife are dead too. New Random Events: Vaguely humanoid creatures may grow out of the ships interior, formed from the former crew of the ship. These creatures will attempt to grab hold of anyone who ventures too close, draining you of your energy.

Patch 0.07aAug 4, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsWe are preparing to implement the second half of the gameplay loop in Disinfection: the Afterlife. Death is not yet the end for you, as you have been absorbed into the infection itself and your consciousness still persists. Soon you will be able to undo some of the damage the infection has done, but be careful... You may still lose your mind and become one of the infection's horrifying creations! The Afterlife: The Afterlife has been given unique ambient and Infection Source sounds, as well as some new visual effects when you get closer to the Infection Source. These are to let players know they are too close to the Infection Source or the "Seekers". Getting too close will slowly degrade your consciousness until you truly become one with the infection, perhaps even turning into one of its creations. The basics for this first Afterlife mechanic are implemented, for the gameplay implementation(s) for patch 0.07b. The Infection Source also has been made less easily visible and has been given new visual effects. Hiding: Players can now hide from the monsters by crouching in the back of most rooms. A visual vignette infection-like effect will be visible if you are hidden. The AI has been updated and the Hunter will now lose track of its target if said target is hiding, unless the Hunter has a line-of-sight to the target player or if the Hunter is very close by. This should make it easier to survive hunts, especially on higher difficulties. Bugfixes: Fixed the player rotating 360 degrees when interacting with an interface, Fixed player flashlight staying off for too long when an Event happens and an hunt starts at the same time, Possible fix for dropping currently held Tool/Weapon when leaving an interface, Possible fix for client-side invisible Tool/Weapon when interacting with an interface, Fixed the Hunter not being able to reach into the medium Life Support, Fixed the Hunter AI breaking when current target hides, Fixed crash when spawning Medium Life Support, Fixed missing collision in some decorations, Fixed Infection Source only infecting one node sometimes, thus keeping the Reprogrammer disabled, Fixed Infection Source not increasing evidences if it cannot roam, Fixed too many hunts due to hiding areas having wrong coll. layer, aggro-ing the infection, Fixed the infection still spreading after having killed the infection source. Polish: Made the Eye Event aggro a little faster, Made light flickers more aggressive and faster. Bugfixes & Polish 8 for Release 0.07Jul 21, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsThis will be the last 0.07 patch, we're going to be working towards 0.07a and eventually the 0.08 Afterlife release. The remaining few features of 0.07 will be implemented along the way. Bugfixes: Fixed the Tutorial and Airlock spinning fans speeding up constantly, Fixed the spinning fans sometimes not spinning and instead slowly shrinking into nothingness, Fixed rare crash when starting a mission, due to an error in a level generator pattern, Minor fixes in some of the level generator patterns, Fixed Reprogrammer not displaying "signal lost" screen when infection is dead, Fixed Reprogrammer not displaying "hacking in progress" screen client side, Fixed red lights not appearing in the entire ship if the Reactor core is broken/infected, Fixed not all doors losing power if the Reactor core is broken/infected, Fixed Eye events no longer seeing a player that had died a previous mission, Fixed Hunter killing a player target that had already died of oxygen deprivation, Fixed crash when ending the mission when a player died whilst holding a door during that mission, Fixed dead player still moving a door when having died whilst holding a door, Fixed Tutorial pause menu buttons being hard to press, Fixed the Tutorial not loading if Steam has no internet connection. Polish: The infection is now more obvious at the beginning of Amateur and Easy missions, Events (Eyeballs etc) will now disappear if the infection is killed, Added roaming hunts. The monster will spawn at the Infection Source location and roam to a random part of the ship. It may hunt a player if one is found nearby, Hunts and roaming is now much more frequent on Hard missions and less frequent on easier missions, Added a hunting delay at the start of the mission so hunts/roams cannot happen until this delay has passed. This delay is longer for easier missions, shorter for Hard missions, Ship systems now no longer give off false signals when fully broken/infected, ER signals from the ship environment will vanish if the Reactor core is broken/infected, Added more ship decorations, Tools now reset their last measured value so they don't display a wrong signal in the start of the next mission. Bugfixes & Polish 6 for Release 0.07Jul 18, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsBugfixes: Fixed VO for Tools/Weapons not playing in Tutorial, Fixed Hunter clipping through doors, Fixed issue with player face icons in the Team Stats screen, Fixed Chiller freeze effect decal appearing on screen when in Afterlife, Fixed Reprogrammer not going back to "no signal found" when having killed the infection, Fixed the infection tentacles that block the airlock during hunts sometimes floating halfway into the air, thus blocking the exit. Polish: Updated to Godot engine 4.1 stable, Made the final score penalty for failing a Medium or Hard mission higher, Bigger penalty for not destroying the infection on Medium and Hard missions, The Hunter moves slightly slower and can barely sprint on Amateur missions now, The Hunter takes much longer to force open a door on Amateur missions now, Cleaned up the helmet glass and updated the glass shader for better visuals, Added new decoration to the hallways and stairs, Updated the infection growths model on the level 'T' section.
