Devilated News

Hey guys,

Neon Doctrine and Trunka are working hard behind the scenes to get Devilated ready to leave early access soon!

In the meantime, we're super excited to announce that Devilated is joining Steam in celebrating FPS fest 2024 (from now until April 22nd at 10am PT).

It's awesome to see Devliated included alongside other wicked FPS titles, and to celebrate; here's a discount for y'all to get your boomer shooter on. 💣





It's been really exciting to see the reception Devilated has had, and awesome to see the number of positive reviews too.

If you haven't bought the game yet, help us show Trunka some love and get it while it's on sale!

Thanks for all the support for Devilated so far,
~ Neon Doctrine 😈

Thanks to the Neon Doctrine team and the community for having my back and providing support when needed.


Done with heart,
Trunka

The game will be done when it's done.

I'm working on an update that is taking a long time. Could have stopped & released it as it is, but I want to launch a version with its potential a bit more fleshed out, so I'm working on making it better. It's about passion, and I don't want to ship and dip.

I did coordinate with my publisher for an estimated delivery time, but that's not fixed in stone. I'm grateful for the support of my publisher and for trusting me to do this and thanks to everyone who's supported the game so far!

For now, we can enjoy the game as is while I and the publisher make our way toward a better version.

I'll keep you updated once we have more to share!

Hey folks, Trunks here.

Just briefly communicate that for this development period, I'm taking a step back a bit to get something done instead of incremental updates for better productivity. There might/ might not be updates till release.

Thanks :)
