| Mar 23rd Patch - Adds 162 Unreleased, Unfinished & Tech Demo Projects | 2017-03-23 | The latest version of NAL Is Alive is here, enabling "Pandora's Box", a collection of NAL's unreleased games, tech demos and unfinished projects.

More tech demos will be added, along with a big handful of alpha, beta and pre-alpha versions of complete games. There will also be extra information for each of the things in Pandora's Box added soon to improve sorting through the list. |

| Jan 2nd 2017 Patch | 2017-01-02 | Hey all, hope you've had a good holiday and a happy new year! A new patch for NAL Is Alive is live now, which does the following: - Fixes an issue with the time that Innoquous 4's completion trophies unlock - Fixes the ordering of Innoquous 1's Speedrun leaderboard so that faster times are now better It also adds FKR11, the latest in NAL's yearly FKR series, along with NIA leaderboards. For now, FKR11 is exclusive to NAL Is Alive - and the version released later on stand-alone will not have the online leaderboards of the NIA version, so you're getting the best version first! http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans |

| Early Access release planned for as soon as possible | 2016-11-24 | As an update, we're looking to have NAL Is Alive out in an Early Access version as soon as possible - ideally by the end of 2016. This is largely due to the music used in many of the older games only being usable in non-commercial settings, and needing replacement. As we do this, we then also need to make them compatible with newer game development programs (they were built in versions of GameMaker as much as 13 years old). Once that is rectified, we can release NAL Is Alive in an early form, as we then begin the process of beautifying everything one game at a time and making the more basic/silly games a lot more enjoyable. Plenty of the game |
