The campaign in the current star system will end early once that level is completed.- Fixed an issue where Deadly Rift progress was lost after restarting the game.
Hey guys sorry I haven't made new items for a little while there, they were kind of driving me crazy. I have the ability to make the coolest AI artwork now, but the animations are really hard to make perfectly looped and sometimes you do 20 animations in a row and the pixels haven't budged at all, and it costs money per animation attempt, it's maddening to say the least. So I went to develop a ton of other software using AI, I found that I could write an entire program or game in the time it would normally take me to make 1 AI video animation and be happy with it, and I made so many programs that one day I had the idea to ask AI to make me a custom animation software suite for JAMs so we could get animations coming out which are nice transparent glittery little GIFs not the AI videos type. After a bit of iteration, the program can now spit out some half decent creations. These are going to look great. And so, having only 20 different FX's in my pipeline and having a variance of 10 of them stacking creates some interesting effects, each time I hit refresh it seems like a waste not to save every render. I am going to try expand this to 1000s of different effects if I can, right now I have 20 basic categories of them and I am just spamming AI to draw up different rendering effects over and over. I've set it up in such a way that my computers can work as clusters, where some can use LLM's to generate new animation parameter / themed concepts and output the item code for Steam directly, and the other systems could be rendering the designs themselves, so I should literally just have to wake up in the morning and choose the best items and just tweak the names and upload them. We are going to have lots more items very, very soon.I have already coded the game in such a way where if we have a ton of items, everyone gets a huge boost on the click counter rate, so I can't exactly just put a ton of new items out all at once, but I also saw people were yearning for some kind of r...
We're now 1 week into the launch of Idle Hacking, and it has been a much stronger launch than I had anticipated. This game has been a solo passion project with many false starts for years before finally reaching the state the game is in today.At our peak, we've had over 450 unique users online between Steam and the website, and as of this moment there are 975 accounts that have been online recently enough to maintain their offline activity. We've had more than one update per day since launch, but it's now settling into a brief update once per day cadence as UI/UX is taking priority to continue to make the game look better, and more intuitive for the players.It hasn't been all positives. We encountered our second downtime issue today, this time it was resolved within a few minutes, putting our launch week downtime at about an hour and 12 minutes total, mostly stemming from the March 22nd deadlock that occurred in the middle of the night. The cause of both downtime incidents has been corrected, and today's downtime confirmed that the new automated incident detection is working to keep downtime to a minimum.In these incidents, the automated Steam login system would fail to recognize a response, and fallback to requesting a username/password, which is optional and not something most Steam users have for this game. In the future, I've updated the login form to handle Steam timeouts more gracefully, and instead of falling back to a username/password, it provide a simple Retry Login button which will utilize Steam's built in authentication.Sorry for the inconvenience these two incidents have caused. This has been a solo development project and the growth in the first week of launch has been above and beyond what I ever expected to see from this small passion project.Going forward, the plan is to maintain a once-daily update cadence to continue to improve things for Steam, web, and mobile users. Planned restarts for updates are currently a mostly painless process, where the...
Hello everyone,Recently, a player reported that the hidden achievement “Crimson Star” could not be unlocked even when the conditions were met. After investigation, I found that the issue stemmed from a code refactor during the “Abyss of the Fallen” update—it was my oversight that caused the unlocking logic for this achievement to be omitted.For those who had been trying to unlock it, this has certainly been a frustrating experience. I sincerely apologize for the time and effort this has cost you. So, let me say this clearly:I’m sorry.This issue has now been fixed in the latest patch. The achievement can now be unlocked as intended once the conditions are met. I’ve also reviewed the logic for other achievements to ensure everything is working properly.As a small gesture to make up for the inconvenience, I’ll be launching a limited-time event soon that increases the spawn rate for “Crimson Star.” More details will be shared in the next major update announcement—stay tuned.About Crimson Star: Crimson Star is a rare mid-to-late game encounter, and the first variant of the Dragon Gate Trial introduced to the game. Its appearance rate can be increased by collecting the 【Divine Selection】 affix on appraisal items, or by gathering more collectibles to boost your luck. Encountering a Crimson Star is said to bring good fortune.This emergency patch also includes the following fixes:Fixed an issue where the hidden achievement “Crimson Star” could not be unlockedFixed an issue where coins launched by shockwaves during the use of Asura’s Force would fall into the Dragon Gate Trial passageFixed an issue where multiple descending Dragon Orbs would occasionally overlap and exhibit abnormal slow-fall behaviorOptimized the code structure for all treasures to facilitate the addition of more varied treasures in the future, while also improving performanceAdjusted the positions of colored text borders and effect indicators to prevent overlapping displayThe “Heavenly Tome Fragments” syste...
🏁 10,000 Drivers!Hey everyone,Before anything else, DriveWave just hit 10,000 players. Ten thousand people running a little car on their desktop while doing other stuff. That's genuinely wild to me. When I first put this game together I was just making something to keep me company while working on my other projects. The fact that this many people enjoy it too means a lot. Seriously, thank you.Now, onto the update. This one's been cooking for a bit. For the last couple of days you've probably seen a lot of updates being pushed out and wondered what they are. Here are the notes.ReFuel SystemYou can now purchase Auto Refuel without needing the Supporter DLC. It'll set you back 5M Cr. which is a bit steep, but if you're tired of pressing the refuel button every few minutes, it pays for itself pretty quickly.macOS Support DriveWave now has proper native macOS input support. Typing detection, controller input, and accessibility permissions are all handled natively instead of through workarounds. If you're on a Mac, you can now open up DriveWave and continue where you left off!Save System OverhaulMoved the entire save system to a new backend. Your existing save data will be migrated automatically on first launch, you don't need to do anything. This makes saves more reliable and sets things up properly for future features. Please report any broken saves without breaking me in the process. I've lost my main save while testing.Cross Platform Cloud SupportEvery kilometre you drive is now being tracked properly. Per car, lifetime, all of it. This has been a long time coming and it opens the door for some interesting things down the line. For now, enjoy watching numbers go up. We all love watching numbers go up.Driving FeelSpent a good amount of time going through every single drivable car and adjusting physics configs. All 300+ drivable cars received tuning passes. Some felt like shopping trolleys before. They still might, but at least they're better shopping trolleys now. All ...

After reading the discourse for the past 2 months, I have decided that the speed run achievement should be added back to the game. It seems more of you liked it than not.For those that did not, there are ways to cheese the achievement without using in game achievements (as they are not allowed for this achievement.To this end, I would like to add more achievements that add to the replayability of Execute... please let me know what achievements you would like to see.PS For players who have earned the achievement in the past, if you still have the save that you earned the achievement on, you simply need to reload that save and watch the final cutscene again to re-earn the achievement.
