Hey Ninja!

Hope everyone has had a great time during the recent Steam Next Fest!

Recently, we made an announcement about the Demo of our upcoming game: Hellsweeper VR! While the Demo was intended to last only until the end of Steamnext Fest, we've received requests on our discord to extend it.

The Hellsweeper VR Demo will be extended until 2 July. If you want to continue defeating adversaries in Hell or you want to spend more time with your beloved Hellhound, you will have one more week!

If you're a fan of Sairento who recently got to try the Hellsweeper demo, we'd LOVE to know...
What Sairento gameplay mechanics were you most excited to see in Hellsweeper VR?

If you're new here, there's also some goodies for you.

Sairento VR is on 50% OFF during Steam's Summer Sale (29 June - 14 July). If you want to keep backflipping, somesaulting and shooting some enemies, this would be a great time to get Sairento VR and scratch that itch before Hellsweeper VR drops!

Hey Ninjas!

It has been a while, and we are very happy to announce that our upcoming game, Hellsweeper VR, now has a new demo available!

We have also announced a release date - 21st September 2023 - across Steam, Quest 2[www.oculus.com] and PSVR2[www.playstation.com].

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1341490/Hellsweeper_VR/

Many of the playtesters during our first Hellsweeper VR demo back in 2021 were also from our Sairento VR community. We are extremely thankful for your feedback, and we have taken them to heart. We hope that you'll continue to offer your suggestions and comments regarding our new and improved demo. Please refer to our feedback form here[forms.gle].

And, if you're as excited as we are about Hellsweeper VR, please spread the word to your friends!

Hellsweeper VR is our spiritual successor to Sairento VR. The team has learned from our time developing Sairento VR, and has taken the core gameplay to the next level.

Hellsweeper VR contains similar movement mechanics and high-paced action. From somersaulting to wall riding, we have kept the heart of being a cyborg ninja and brought it over to the spirit of being a Hellsweeper.

From using different weapons and firearms, we have included brand-new mechanics that were not present in Sairento VR. Magic and combining elements have been added, allowing players who wanted to be a mage a chance to live a more magical fantasy. Furthermore, magic can interact with your weapons and firearms, opening up even more options for battle.

In addition, you will not be fighting alone. Your fellow Hellhound can fight alongside you, companionship is now part of your arsenal. Make sure to give him lots of pats!


We hope you'll enjoy the new content and updates. Our current demo will only be available during Steam Next Fest (19 - 26 June, 10 AM PST) and this will most likely be our last demo before our full release on 21 Sep 2023.

Steps
1. Head on over to the Hellsweeper VR store page.
2. Install the Hellsweeper VR demo.
3. Get Sweeping!

As always, we want to hear from our community. Please Wishlist Hellsweeper VR on Steam and follow us on our Twitter, Discord[discord.gg] or leave a comment on our Steam Forums!

If you're new here, there's also some goodies for you.

Sairento VR is on 30% OFF during Steam's Lunar New Year Sale (Jan 27 - Feb 3) while our new game's free playtest demo will be available for access until Jan 31. Enjoy!

Hey Ninjas!

Almost a year ago, deeply encouraged by your support for Sairento and armed with learnings from working on it, we embarked on the development of our second VR game, Hellsweeper VR.

We wanted to create another kickass title that is worthy of being called a spiritual successor to Sairento - but with better graphics, improved combat and more innovative gameplay.

Today, we are thrilled to announce that we are almost ready to release the Hellsweeper's alpha demo, and we are inviting you to playtest it as soon as it is available within the next few days/weeks!

3 Easy Steps
1. Head on over to the link below
2. Wishlist Hellsweeper
3. Request Access to playtest it
You will receive a notification once Hellsweeper is ready for playtesting.

Hell... Sweep... wait, what?

Hellsweeper VR came about from our desire to improve what made our first game, Sairento VR, uniquely daring as a VR game. We are keeping Sairento’s no-holds-barred locomotion while improving its arcade-style action with semi realistic physics, allowing you to pull off even crazier moves like juggling enemies in the air.

Combat is a core feature of Hellsweeper VR. At the most basic level, you can summon and wield various tools of destruction. Cleave through an undead horde with a claymore. Snipe down flying foes from a distance with an antique rifle. Turn a foe into a pincushion by summoning a salvo of piercing ice shards. Group enemies together with a gravitational vortex.

Advanced players however, can also adeptly combine magic and weapons to greater effect. Enchant an ordinary battle-axe into a frost-imbued one, allowing you to chill an enemy on hit. Transmute an arrow with fire, turning it into an explosive projectile. Merge flame and ice to channel a beam of pure arcane energy, cutting through swathes of minions with ease.

Upgrade and customize your skills, and experiment with unique variations of abilities to discover what being a Hellsweeper really means to you.

On top of gameplay, we’re also improving the graphics, animations and the overall visual experience -- many of which, we didn't know how to do right yet when we first worked on Sairento.

We crafted Hellsweeper VR as a spiritual successor to Sairento VR, our studio's very first game which will always hold a very special place in our hearts.

Back in 2016, we were a handful of developers who had no prior experience working on VR games, much less, enough dev space at work to fling our arms around in VR without giving the person seated right next to us an accidental uppercut. But what we lacked in space, funds and pantry snacks, we tried to make up for with our bold vision on what we believed virtual reality gaming should feel like: absolute freedom.

Your overwhelming support in the last five years made taking that leap of faith all the more worth it.

Let's build Hellsweeper VR together!

As with our tradition of developing games for and together with gamers, we want to get the community involved in our dev journey for Hellsweeper VR.

We look forward to reading all your suggestions and feedback once the Alpha Demo comes out!

Hey Ninjas,

How have you been?

For us, the past few months had been rather difficult. For a closely knitted team who is used to working in the same office, it was not easy for us to transit to working remotely from home. We saw our productivity drop as even communications became a chore.

Despite the challenges, we somehow managed to stick to our schedule to release a free content update containing 2 new maps and a new weapon just in time for the Steam Summer Sale.

As most of you will know, we have continuously updated the game with a generous amount of free content even after the game was completed. We did this for the simple reason of wanting to reward you for buying our first game and making it into a commercial success. Because of you Sairento has become one of the best-selling action VR games on Steam and other platforms and we are ever so grateful.

This will be our last update for Sairento VR, bringing our total number of maps and weapons to 25 and 24 respectively. We hope that with this final update, we have delivered a game that has brought you exceptional value, tons of fun and replayability.

And you may be wondering what's next after Sairento?

Well, we are building our next VR game. And we are really excited but nervous about it. We have huge expectations to meet and we cannot afford to be flippant or complacent. The VR scene has changed much since we launched Sairento 2 years back. Other awesome VR games launched. We know we need to offer a much better experience with our second game than Sairento or get left behind.

We are going to pull no punches and you can expect to experience a combat experience that is bigger, badder and crazier than Sairento. We sincerely hope that you will continue supporting us for our second game and if you like to see sneak snippets of our WIP as we release them, do join us on our Discord channel at https://discordapp.com/invite/tce6YMW.

-------------------

Map | The Marine Outpost

This map features a massive oil rig structure set in the middle of the ocean. It includes various levels of elevation, bridges and towers which encourages maximal use of locomotion to move around and get the drop on your foes.

Map | The Slum

This map features a rundown residential area, with an elevated high speed rail running through the location. There are 3 major road divisions that define this map. Stalk the rooftops to look for prey, or use the rooftops as a quick escape route to escape from enemy action.

Weapon | The Figment

The Figment is perfect for sharpshooters, rewarding accuracy with pure power. For each critical hit you land, there is a chance to materialize 2 more holographic guns on each hand, for up to a maximum total of 6 guns appearing at any one time. With the right legendary relics, you will be able to sustain the holographic guns for longer periods, raining bullet hell upon your enemies and ripping them to shreds.

-------------------

Please Drop Us A Review

Please tell us how you like our final update and drop us a review if you haven't already done so. Once again, we thank you so much for your kind support for Sairento and do join us on Discord Channel to get sneak previews of our next games! (https://discordapp.com/invite/tce6YMW)

Hey Ninjas,

How have you guys been?

The COVID 19 has been affecting most countries around the world and we are on remote working mode. We hope that you are keeping safe and taking vitamins to stay strong and healthy.

We've decided to release another free content pack to chase away the doldrums of being stuck at home. Check them out below.

And for those of you who may not know, we have begun work on our 2nd VR game. What we can say at this point is that it is going to be another combat sim, but even more visceral and brutal. We are going to pull no punches and you can expect to experience a combat experience that is bigger, badder and crazier than Sairento! We will be showcasing snippets of our WIP soon and if you like to see them, do join us on our Discord channel at https://discordapp.com/invite/tce6YMW.

Lastly, we have just launched our new PC deckbuilding roguelike RPG called Gordian Quest. It's received pretty good reviews so far and on a 10% discount for the launch week. Do check it out if that's your kind of game :)

https://store.steampowered.com/app/981430/Gordian_Quest/?snr=1_100400_2100__2103

-------------------

Map | The Suburb

This map features a downtown street location, an intersection of a main bridge and tunnel overlooked by various buildings. Link bridges between the buildings and floating vehicles provide a lateral playground, while an assortment of cars and trucks serve as cover for you to move to and from if you choose to take the battle to the ground.


Weapon | The IRM-3000

A high explosive missile launcher. Customize it with relic properties such as homing capability, explosion radius, and fallout size - a lingering damage-over-time zone at the point of impact. While limited in ammo, explosive weapons pack a big punch against bigger targets like the Sumo, and can be used to create some breathing room when swarmed.

-------------------

Map | The Cave

This map features an underground cave filled with red hot lava and elements of verticality. Watch out for the spinning drill in the center of the map as you leap from platform to platform.

-------------------

Weapon | The Nobunaga Grenade Launcher

An explosive weapon by default, pressing the trigger fires a grenade that explodes on impact. By holding down the trigger, you can spin up the chamber, allowing you to fire a series of grenades in quick succession on release. With the right legendary relics, you can enable the fired grenades to split after firing, add a burning effect to hit targets, and even generate a mini shield that gives the weapon a defensive component.

Ninjas,

It's the annual Steam Winter Sale again!

During the Autumn Sale last month we released a free https://steamcommunity.com/games/555880/partnerevents/view/1611655215614499735]content update featuring a new weapon and location.

This time round, in the spirit of Christmas giving, we are bringing to you two FREE maps to bring your inner ninja to the next level!

Check them out below.

-------------------

Map 1 | The Research Lab

The Research Lab is a key enemy infrastructure, with fairly open areas converging into a central research platform. Use the various ramps and rooms for cover, or take the more scenic route, weaving between gunfire and the many production tubes housing enemy prototypes.

-------------------

Map 2 | The Depot

The Depot is a tightly-packed, close-quarters map with an aesthetic matching the Warehouse map. Here, there is less lateral space to move around, but the introduction of a vertical platform in the middle allows for fights to happen on three different levels.

-------------------

Check Out and Wishlist Our Upcoming New Game

Also, we hope that you will check out our upcoming new game and wishlist it if a deckbuilding rogue-like/lite RPG sounds like your cup of tea.

Gordian Quest is best described as an old school RPG presented in a modern way. We are huge fans of old cult classics like Wizardry, Ultima, Dungeons and Dragons and Might and Magic.

There is something charming about the old-school way of forming your team of heroes to go on adventures, accepting quests from NPCs, leading your heroes to engage in battles, making them stronger, mastering skills, forging new weapons and discovering powerful relics.

In Gordian Quest, we have preserved all these elements – made better and fronted by more modern concepts such as deckbuilding, turn-based tactical combat, a skill-grid system, equipment crafting, procedural maps and uncovering deeper skills brought about by forging bonds among your heroes.
