Narcosis

 
Pressure Rising, Price Drop: Narcosis now only $15 (U.S.)Apr 19, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsNarcosis made its Steam debut a little over two years ago, and while the game continues to be purchased, played and streamed every day, we're eager to get it in the hands of even more players. With that in mind, we've permanently lowered the price from $19.99 (U.S.) to $14.99, with a corresponding chagne for all other regions, as well. We continue to be grateful for the thoughtful comments and positive responses from gamers around the world. If you haven't had a chance to check out what surprises lay beneath the surface, there's no better time than now... https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/9759705/29eeb8c998fc8596f4c14a96c3e45cc660e6a855.pngFirst look at Netflix's Narcos as a video gameNov 15, 2018 - EurogamerEarlier in the year, British publisher Curve Digital announced it was working on a video game version of hit Netflix show Narcos. If you haven't seen it, Narcos is a gritty Colombian cartel drama starring the guy who's head got popped on Game of Thrones. It's good watching, if you have the stomach for it.

Thanks again for your patience and your support :)[UPDATE] Anniversary edition delayedMar 30, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsHi everyone. Many of you reached out to us to point out that you couldn't find the anniversary DLC content that we've announced. Following on that we found out that while our internal tests ran fine to update and access DLC, for a public release we needed an additional approval from Valve, which we're since waiting on. It shouldn't take long, but in the meantime the DLC will remain inaccessible. We'll keep you posted on that matter and tell you when the DLC is available as soon as it is up. Apologies from all of us, hopefully that will get sorted out quickly.One Year Later: Major Content UpdateMar 28, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsNarcosis debuted one year ago today, so as a 'thank you' to all of you who've taken this journey with us — and those still to come — we've updated the Steam edition of the game with some very exciting extras...

Since Narcosis launched (nearly a year ago!) we've received quite a bit of praise, and not a few criticisms. In particular, there's one key level midway through the game that's a little less... explicit in its instructions, as to where to go, and how to get there. Those of you who've played it may remember the eighth level - fittingly called "FOLLOW PROCEDURE" - in which the Survivor finds himself (even more) lost and directionless, after an... unexpected encounter. Having read your feedback, and watched dozens of streams, we got the gang back together to try and make this particular section just a little bit easier. Narcosis is - at its dark heart - a survivor's story, and we hate to think that some of you might opt not to reach the (bitter? sweet?) conclusion, on account of some poor game balancing. If all that is too cryptic, a transcript of the change log is pasted below. Nothing too spoiler-y, but it's redacted, just in case... Whether its your first time playing, or if you're going through again to try and uncover some of the many, many secrets we've stashed deep beneath the sea, we hope you'll enjoy the journey, and share your thoughts with us. Finally, the one-year anniversary of the game's release is approaching. With that in mind, we've got a few more exciting announcements incoming... So watch this space! Change Log: + Changed start point + Changed blinking light depending of that new position (it disappears in the desert... That's normal) + Changed some fishes' paths + Added new trigger for spider in the desert + Added some path to go to the other side + Added anemones glowing in order to lure player to the other side + Changed a bit the slide of the volcanoes to better trap player + Made easier to climb the new way from the volcano to the exit(Difficulty) Update!Feb 23, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsGreetings, dear divers...
