ARKSYNC - 3.2.1.12026-10-12Welcome to all the new players that picked up the game during the Autumn Sale! Gave me a lot of hope that we can push units, and Arksync has a real chance to get on the map. I've had several people the last month reach out telling me how much they loved they game, and how they found a deeper meaning throughout the game, and that's been wonderful to hear! I wish it was easier to market the heart this game has, because I think it makes the game unique, but it's hard when it's a 12 pixel tall teddy bear haha. We're at 59 reviews now, and working still pushing towards the big 100 reviews needed to prove to the Steam algo that Arksync deserves to
ARKSYNC - 3.2.1.02026-09-25Oh yeah, we're really back in the saddle now. Had a little break in my normal job and finished up some much needed new enemies!Thanks to everyone that's left reviews! We're at 57, and working to the big 100 needed to take Arksync off life support; proving to the Steam algo that it's worth being shown to more players... and bonus, if that happens I'll get to finish my next game a lot faster. 57/100 🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ New Enemy: Scout There's been a lot of feedback for more enemy types, and here we go!

ARKSYNC - 3.2.0.02026-09-19Alright, finally back in the saddle! Back in June we moved our little family to a smaller town. It was a total crash landing, and all while trying to focus on freelance to pay the bills. It's been nuts, BUT! I've finally finished this crazy update! I've been running through the game with this new update, and it's feeling so good. A lot of changes since release; Recall to extract levels early, Supply Crates in levels, lower mod costs, upgrading for a second utility, upgrades that increase your odds of surviving, and now the Recovery Crate. All this intentionally aimed at curbing gear fear. Arksync remains a challenging game, but more important

As for me, after 2 intense months preparing the full release of Arksync, I'm heading back to my regular job today... and daydreaming about the day I can work on Dykom Software full-time.

ARKSYNC - Update 1.5.4.12024-09-02It's been a crazy couple months here as we're adjusting to life with our first kiddo, and I'm back to working freelance, so this update took a bit longer to roll out, but is it's here!
