Hey everyone!

Sorry for the abnormal release date, but I've had a busy week recovering from the hurricane! Apparently being hit by a hurricane means I have to get even more schoolwork than normal. 😔
However, I am happy to say that my schedule should be returning back to normal, and with fingers crossed, the next update should be November 7th!

Version 3.0.3a has just been released!

I've tried making up for the delay by making a pretty big update! This update focuses on the early-game/new-player experience, completely overhauling the tutorial and updating a few effects!
For an overview of the changes, you can watch the video below!

New Content:

• Updated tutorial:
  • First-time players are automatically put into the tutorial
  • New tutorial map
  • New tutorial mechanics
  • Added Old Overseer Drone enemy
  • Added Old Overseer Uniform item

Bug/Quality of Life Fixes:

• Improved all light glow VFX
• Updated bullet particles
• Fixed a bug where, after unlocking a new mission and then leaving, the mission would become locked again upon re-opening the game
• Fixed a visual bug that showed the stealth exp bonus after completing a loud playthrough
• Updated Mission 2 dialogue
• The turrets on Mission 1 now spawn flush against the wall
• Slightly decreased grab ray range while in the station
  • 8 > 6
• Updated several items:
  • Primary Case: Updated description
  • Secondary Case: Renamed to Sidearm Case and updated description
  • Gun Barrel: Updated description
  • Gun Frame: Updated description
  • Stock: Updated description
  • Chip: Updated description
  • Keycard: Updated description

I don't think I'll be adding a skibidi toilet update anytime soon, haha 😅

Hey everyone! Sorry for the late announcement, but I regret to inform you all that version 3.0.3a will be delayed to next week. As I'm sure you've heard, Hurricane Milton has ravaged Florida, and while me and my family are thankfully okay, preparing for its arrival has put some delays on the game.

Stay tuned for the update next week and stay safe everyone!

Hey everyone!

It's been three weeks, which means it's update day!

Update Postponed

Hey everyone! Today is update day, but unfortunately, I encountered an issue that irrecoverably wiped the changes I had made for this update. I am working hard to redo the changes, but I unfortunately will not be able to release this update on time.

Apologies for the inconvenience!

Project Overseer: Recall Update has just been released!

It's August, and that means that the next big version for Project Overseer is here! The Recall Update adds a ton of new features to the game, most notable of which is an automatic save system and AI companions that are activated by your voice!

With that being said, there are also a lot of bug fixes and improvements, so to view the entire list of changes, you can read the official devlog here!

The companions' voices are far from finalized, and are just placeholders made by me. If the game gets enough support, I'll look for talented voice actors to really bring them to life!

Thank you all for your support and stay tuned for the next update!
