2023-09-04 21:33:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Since we're planning on alot more Polls in the near future, I wanted to come out and ask, what kind of polls we should have?

Subliminal's Official Gameplay Trailer!
2023-08-31 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone! It's the dev here (Sven). I wanted to give a more detailed and down-to-earth explanation of how things are progressing and how they will in the near future (especially considering this week has not lived up to the consistency we promised last week). Overall, the development and the progression of Subliminal has been going smoothly and I'm very proud of how much we've been able to get done just in the past week.
But, to be realistic, I'm still mainly the only Dev working, de...
2023-08-25 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostIt's your (probably) most favourite Swedish-named developer hopefully with some consistent updates.
We have three main key highlights for you today and a lot of interesting updates for things to come.
â‹… Nostalgia submission polls have now closed and results are now in!
â‹… Level 18 Environment rework (Leaks coming soon)
â‹… Procedural Animation update for entity in Level 18! (More info in "The Details")
First and foremost: Updates have not been coming out frequently and I (The Dev) am here to set the schedule straight. We've had a huge amount of expansion lately along with a few large development projects for Subliminal and Updates have unfortunately gotten pushed aside:/ I apologize to everyone who has been waiting, it's been a wild ride to where we are now and figuring our way into an organized team has been difficult to say the least. But, now with a better built and organized team in pla...
2023-08-11 03:06:14 +0000 UTC View PostThe results for the Nostalgic Item Submission will be posted tomorrow!
Along with Update #17!
Stay tuned...

2023-07-25 06:55:36 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a while since our last update! Let's catch up with what's been going on under the hood...
• Level 309! Atmosphere Improved and Optimized (Details in "The Details" at the bottom of the post)
• More DLSS Settings! (Much more control over Performance vs Quality)
• Level 566 (The Factory) foliage optimization.

I (the dev) and the Subliminal team are Finally pleased to reveal Alpha 3 to everyone!🎉🎉🎉
Download and Test instructions are at the bottom of this post.
â‹… Levels 566 & 37 have been taken out temporarily for optimization because of performance limitations. (Will return in the Alpha 3.1 patch)
â‹… Resolution is now controlled by a Slider. Full Slider = Full Screen Resolution. Empty...
2023-06-25 01:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostUnfortunately after a bit of debate, We've decided to push the Alpha back 4 days to deal with some optimization bugs. This is tentative pushback to avoid any game breaking bugs for lower end cards. I thank everyone for your patience with Alpha 3's release. We are at the tail end and I (as the main Dev) assure everyone Alpha 3 will come out in all its glory on June 24th!
Set Release: June 24th 6:00pm PST, 9:00pm EST, 2:00am UTC (June 25th)
• Lots of bug fixes!...
2023-06-20 06:17:35 +0000 UTC View PostUnfortunatly We've been working through a few gameplay bugs in Level 80 and will need to push back the alpha a few days to complete final bug testing and fixing. I as the Dev apologize for the delay. As we're getting into later releases containing a fair parcentage of content of what will be in the Full Release, the time demand of interconnected bugs has slipped its way past us this week. We do not intend or project any future delays on Alpha 3, and we personally cannot wait to release the fi...
2023-06-13 08:23:58 +0000 UTC View PostWe've debated on this for a while. But it's time to make a decision on whether a stamina bar for running endurance would be a good fit!
Most voted choice will decide whether a stamina bar will be in Subliminal!
2023-06-11 03:43:17 +0000 UTC View PostLots to report on this week!
Optimization has taken a big step up across all levels with a much better AI image scaling algorithm along, DLSS integration, and better dynamic lighting optimization. Altogether, for most cards we're looking at around a 20-30 fps increase!
To go along with the optimizations we have a fair amount of additional options in settings to control DLSS, traditional Raytraced reflections, Lumen traced reflections, Lumen GI, and AI image scaling.
Addition...
2023-06-06 08:38:35 +0000 UTC View PostVote for ALL levels you would like to see released.
The most voted for Level will be added to Alpha 3!
2023-06-03 19:17:07 +0000 UTC View PostDue to some storage and PC issues getting resolved within the past few days the weekly update has been delayed the past few days.
:/
But not to fret, we've cleared everything up and the update will be coming out tomorrow along with the much awaited Level Poll for Alpha 3!
2023-06-01 04:56:56 +0000 UTC View PostAfter last week's rough corruption issues we're finally back to Alpha 3 preparation!
Official estimate at the moment for Alpha 3 is about a week and a half! The poll for the second level to be in Alpha 3 is also coming tomorrow! As the Dev, this alpha is my favorite and the one I'm most intrigued to hear everyones feedback on:)
• Corruption Recovery🎉
• Level 80 Subway Car Additions
• Improved Video Compression Shader
Unfortunately within the past few days we've have some issues with source control (team syncing software) that has caused some corruption within a few levels:/
Thankfully most of the corruption has been dealt with and recovered within the past day! But sadly a chunk of both Level ! and Level 8 is permanently gone. Hopefully everything will be able to be rebuilt within a few days and we'll be able to get back to preparing for the alpha!
Being an early game on the UE5 platform thing...
2023-05-19 22:40:58 +0000 UTC View Post
Accurate Video Compression has been a big focus lately, and lately, I (the dev) and the team have been very happy with it!
The question is...
Would you like for it to be a default option?
