In this post, we will be discussing the 0.16 update, “Ghosts of the South Gate”, as well as showcasing some of the upcoming work that the team has put into the game. This has been an opportunity for the team to work on something that isn’t within the usual confines of Area-12, allowing them to explore more creative and flexible approaches to various gameplay concepts and designs. This should be a unique experience that plays quite differently to the main campaign missions JXLDC, and shows some of the more diverse gameplay scenarios that we have planned for the rest of the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/d54dfa415023a571320b4c63510f5adb0b897b32.png SCP-610 As we last discussed in our Fall 2024 Studio Update one of our major focuses for SCP: 5K moving forward is on making sure that the SCPs not only present unique challenges for players, but also really drive up the horror factor. Known as “The Flesh That Hates”, SCP-610 is considered one of the creepier anomalies of the SCP universe, as it’s a highly contagious disease that causes grotesque mutations to the body of those that are infected. It is designated as a “Keter” class anomaly by the SCP Foundation, as it is extremely difficult to contain. Despite its Keter classification, SCP-610 was originally contained and isolated at Site-600 in Russia due to its frigid and cold environment, which appeared to play a key factor in the containment process. In SCP: 5K, our goal was to pick up the story of SCP-610 after its isolation IK3Y8 and containment in Site-600: Area-12 seems to be involved in the development of the “Vector Program”, a global initiative that no one yet understands the full repercussions of. This program resulted in SCP-610 being transported from Site-600 to NSIS-4 for testing and the player’s mission is to find out why. https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExN3F3NjhxNzU1bGpnY3dxM3hzZW10c3AxdTNnYzF4ZjlseHI5cGp1ZyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/EkqlKaQpUtIqZKjrai/giphy.gif While developing SCP-610, our primary objective was to create a more “monstrous monster”, something that is distinctly different from guards/soldiers and our other enemy types that primarily utilize basic/simple melee attacks. In order to achieve this we constructed a flexible attack system that allowed us to add roughly half a dozen attacks across four different variants of SCP-610. We won’t reveal all of the attacks or variants here, but players should expect to anticipate and dodge a variety of attack patterns depending on the variant that they encounter. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/719fcc06b946ae10407ff443d079b5d5e1e656a9.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/a9c715622b437ba8a02634a3cdfc7ccfc60debdd.png During this process we have also made sure to utilize some of the existing tech that we created for the 0.15 update (namely W486B the soldier awareness system and the fake zombie death mechanics) and modify/repurpose portions of it specifically...Update 0.16 Release Date RevealFeb 19, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHi everyone, The release date for Update 0.16 is now here!

While this is not our first devblog, it’s the first I have personally written since officially joining the Affray team as SCP: 5K’s Community Manager—if you are unfamiliar with my recent addition to the team, you can read more about it and my background here. In this update we will be taking a higher level look at Affray Interactive as a studio, the rather substantial amount of changes and restructuring that have taken place behind the scenes over the past year, and our present and future plans for SCP: 5K leading up to a 1.0 release. We will also be sharing a few teasers for the 0.15 update, however more thorough showcases will be coming soon. For now, we want to keep the community in the loop in regards to what we have been up to as a studio to provide context to those future plans, and F5R6F why/how we feel this is ultimately a major positive for SCP: 5K and its future. 2023 and Q1-2 2024 The vast majority of 2023 was dedicated towards the reformation and restructuring of the studio, and there was a major push towards streamlining our production pipelines. The team was focused on tightening up and growing out the existing departments. There were many new additions to the studio and we’ve created a more robust team capable of growing the small, fun experience that we had before into a comprehensive full game. Moving on to 2024, the first half of the year was rather substantial for content, asset and artwork production. Many existing elements of the game were further iterated upon and improved. The result of these efforts and work was the 0.14 update that you all are able to play today (which you can read more about what specifically was included in this update here)—this update was actually our largest content update by far, and the total available asset library of levels, environment art, weapons, monsters, and so on was greatly expanded with this push. In this sense, we largely look at this stage of development as the time where we are “acquiring the ingredients” that we need to make the game the way we know it can be made. Q3-4 2024 and 2025 Now that the team has finally been built up and is picking up momentum with the production pipeline, we EW3N6 have been spending the second half of 2024 looking at as much of the project from a top-down perspective as possible, doing numerous deep dives on the game’s reviews and overall community feedback, and figuring out the best plan to move the game along to a full release state given all of the assets and tools now at our disposal. 0.14 included a lot of new content and improved many aspects of the game, however we heard all of the community feedback/reception and reviews loud and clear, and we understand that there was something off in regards to what players had originally come to the game to experience. The ingredients were solid, but the 0.14 update was simply missing that “it” factor that we feel a lot of the community gravitated to...Server MaintenanceSep 20, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHello everyone, Starting on Friday (9/20) all official game servers will be down through the weekend as we conduct maintenance/upgrades on our server hardware. We anticipate that they will be back up and running on Monday (Tuesday latest). This should not impact any community ran servers, just our official ones.Status Update: Update 0.15Aug 21, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHi everyone, We wanted to give everybody an announcement on the status of the 0.15 update: After much deliberation and discussion within the team, we have decided to take the extra time and push the 0.15 update release back to this fall—we will be announcing a more specific date as we get closer to it. Because of how much work is taking place beneath the hood for this update, we wanted to make sure that when we release this update it is high quality and tackles a lot of the issues that were present with the 0.14 update. We have spent a lot of time over the past few months collecting feedback (thank you to everyone that has been posting in the feedback forums in the Discord), reading reviews, observing the various discussions taking place about the game in our Discord and on the Steam forums, and so on, and it is our top priority right now that 0.15 takes a positive step in the right direction based on where we and the community feel the game currently is and where it is lacking. Bug fixes and polish is a major priority for this patch, and QA has been working extremely hard gathering bug reports and working alongside the team to fix the issues that they have come across (thank you to everyone that has been posting in bug reports forums in the Discord, please keep posting if you run into anything!). These issues not only eroded the overall quality and enjoyment of the current game, but also outright broke things for some players which prevented them from even being able to experience all the content that we currently have in, so being able to tackle these issues for the next update was very important to us and we want to make sure the team has the time they need in order to accomplish as much of this as possible within the allotted time. Beyond bug fixes/polish, the 0.15 update contains a major overhaul to Chapter 1 that will begin to set the tone for how we plan on overhauling/facelifting Chapters 2-3 (and all future chapters), and it will contain a slew of new mechanics, features, and steps towards changing the general direction and pacing of the game (namely less reliance on puzzling and more focus on immersion and depth). Some of the other features coming with this update will be the new investigation mechanic, which will have direct ties to the lore and finding other critical meaningful/useful information that players will need to survive in Area 12, as well as a more expanded checkpoint system that builds upon what was introduced in 0.14 (these checkpoints will now be tied into the lore, and saves will persist across multiple game sessions so players will be able to more easily pick up where they left off as they progress through the campaign). Thank you everyone for your patience and your support. We really want this update to be significant and more clearly show the direction and identity that we envision for 5K! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/0f270e30a0dbbc52702a169e0c8f846fd7073c86.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/b5fedd052c14ef8f11ea9c8a96d5...Update 0.14.1 Patch notesJun 25, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsThis week, we'll be releasing a new patch for SCP: 5K; version 0.14.1.

Yup. I know. Read it again. Take a deep breath. We feel it too. This update is a big one. Here are just some of the things we’re adding in 0.14: New Faction 2 New Monsters New Map New Campaign Chapter 2 New Weapons Better Enemy AI Bark Lines Vaulting Various Bug Fixes Additional Visual and Audio Improvements Pushing our release again was not an easy choice, but releasing an unstable build of the game after all the work the team put into these exciting new elements would be unfair to the community. We want you to play the game with your mates and have fun without having to deal with technical issues. Our party system and networking alone have been putting up a real fight. To elaborate, let’s start with that peculiar number up above. 0.14.0.111 is the current build number of the game. The ‘111’ is how many builds we’ve pushed internally as we tested and corrected bugs with QA. To be clear… that’s one hundred and eleven builds with a few more to come before releasing the update. To put that in perspective, our previous update only got up to 49 on the build number and that was after 0.13 released. Hopefully this gives you an idea of how much harder we’ve been working to ensure a successful update release. While we finish testing, we have a few sacrificial offerings to appease your SCP: 5K bloodlust: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/ea2be4ca228fa47dad2f57276eaeeaaeaa269dae.gif Today: I offer a list of the main things 0.14 promises to deliver: SCP: 5K 0.14 Patch Notes Next week: we’ll release the 0.14 Trailer Following the trailer release: there will be a Q+A session on Discord with myself and our QA Lead, Aaron James! Watch for that announcement here: Community Discord Server I can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve been cooking. Not just with update 0.14, but for the entire project. We have incredible plans for this game and the stories we want to tell and we’re excited to be at a stage in our journey with so much growth and progress. This team is creating something special. But despite my excitement to share what we’ve been building, it’s more important to put quality first. After all, what’s a few more weeks in the grand scheme of things? “Late is just for a little while, suck is forever.’ Right?” -Gabe Newell, Valve Hold the light, watch the dark.

I’m here today to share some news about the progress on update 0.14. I’ll cut to the chase: we’re pushing our update release to April 29th. And now I’ll explain why. Our development team on SCP: 5K has been working incredibly hard, doing a tremendous job of creating and implementing new content and improvements to the game for this release. It has been a monumental lift to say the least! As stated in our previous Devlog: we’ve expanded our team and capabilities in a big way. The learning curve however means that we (as you might expect) hit some bumps along the way. Such is the life of a game developer. One of the departments we’ve expanded on is QA with the addition of our newest member: Aaron James. A proper QA team is something we’ve always wanted but in the past we were limited to sharing that workload among team members in addition to their existing responsibilities. We’re excited with how much of a help it’s been having people dedicated to hunting down bugs and other issues within the game. This is a very time consuming process but vital to ensuring a great experience with minimal issues. That said, through testing we’ve encountered a few unexpected things that required us to make a decision. Either ship it as is and hit our deadline, or shift the deadline and give our team more time. I would say it’s not an easy decision but I’ll be honest here…it really is. Our current goals: 1. Make an exciting and fun experience for players 2. Treat our humans well The entire team is so passionate about this project. It would be wrong to not allow this update a bit more time to cook. We’ve been reworking and polishing a lot of things. We’re all very proud of everyone for stepping up to the plate. I couldn’t be more grateful for the tenacity of this development team; they’re the real magic-makers and they deserve all the credit in the world because thanks to them, we’ll still be able to release 0.14 this month despite the challenges we faced. In the meantime, we’ll have more information between now and then, along with a new trailer. Thank you for your support and for playing our game! “Hold the light, watch the dark.” TREY BISHOP // SCP: 5K GAME DIRECTOR {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33393847/7d99c10efe841c141c86c48ccffa76f036778106.jpg SCP-173-B Speedrun GiveawayApr 8, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsPrizes 1st Place: $150 Dollars, the original SCP-173-B Plushie, and Area-12 crate 2nd Place: $100 Dollars 3rd Place: $25 Dollars 4th Place: $25 Dollars Contest Details To participate.
