SHALTER-03 changes
Here comes a major update for SHALTER-03, packed with new features, important bug fixes, and general gameplay improvements.
We've been working hard to improve the puzzles, add new mechanics like potions, and resolve those annoying multiplayer synchronization issues. We'd also like to give you a little hint about what's coming next: we're working on a guided intro/tutorial sequence with voice narration that will welcome you when you first enter the game. This will help new players adapt to the mechanics and the world much more easily.
Thank you so much for the amazing interest you showed during Next Fest <3
