IDUN - Frontline Survival news & patch notes

This patch introduces a fully reworked turret targeting system that makes defenses feel more intelligent and responsive. Raids now give Energy Cycle rewards per length completed. You’ll also find key balance updates, more input flexibility (especially on Steam Deck), and fixes that polish the game across the board.

Added:

• New turret targeting system! Target options are gained through biased sampling and chosen based on weighted values: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/dbb6715dfd02c9567263a36c280821362b36a1cb.gif
  • Health – High-damage turrets aim for tankier enemies.
  • Rotation – Fast-rotating turrets scan around for the best target; slow ones stick to what’s in front.
  • Distance – Most turrets prefer nearby enemies, Minigun Turrets more so than artillery turrets.

As always, these changes are based on your feedback, so keep it coming! The Sky Gun is now locked for a shorter time, as the Deep Dive mission where it gets repaired has been moved earlier, also making it clearer that it is broken and how to fix it. This update also introduces the Meteor Rain mission modifier, bringing fiery destruction from the sky. Plus, mission modifiers can now appear during loop events. You can now filter unachieved achievements for easier tracking, and UI improvements make tooltips, scrolling, and raid loadouts clearer.

Last patch had some stability issues, I'm so sorry about that. Hopefully this patch will be more stable. Remember to enable "Send Analytics Data" if you want to help out, that way I will get the crash logs.

Long range heroes and turrets are now really good at hitting fast moving distant targets.

Added:

• In-Game Achievement Tracker. See all achievements and their progress, including those not on Steam (Steam has a 100-achievement limit for smaller games). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/b286797f8a2b762183ec4d20431fbea3a87af522.gif

As always, your feedback is what shapes the game, keep it coming!

Last patch shipped with a bug related to Steam Overlay, so I needed a fix out ASAP. But I took this opportunity to get in some other requested quick fixes in and the resource tracker I have been working on.

Added:

• Resources are now shown on the map when hovering over the resource bar, and rooms appear when hovering over the station button, making it easier to find what you need. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/5bcb93f0b87b15f2fc6c1ab10c0862a09a628542.gif

Changes:

• Preferred difficulty is now set to Easy by default.
• Improved the Turret Targe Prioritization. Added some gifs to show what is happening under the hood. The green line is the decided target. Blue is what the old system would have found. Red is blocked. Yellow is the search position and the cyan is the enemy that the position found. Hope you like this even though it is a bit nerdy. : )
  • Tank Main Gun, Cannon, Shotgun & Flamer Turrets now also compares dot products (angle difference) when finding a target.
  • Sniper & Ray Turrets are looking in many directions trying to find the enemy with the highest health. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/0e44110f6a464a551348ad5539a77ab2dd46fe78.gif

• Planet View music will no longer stop playing unexpectedly.
• Blade Turret unlock path now correctly updates when unlocking Walls or Flamer Turrets.
• Hardware cursor will not be crazy big on some Linux machines.
• Worms and Deposits will no longer try to block pathing, it caused units already inside the area to stop moving.

Know Issues:

• SHIFT Selection is stuck after closing Steam Overlay using the close button. I can't for the life of me fix this. So the official solution until Steam or Unity changes their API is to just press SHIFT again when back in the game.

Stay tuned for the next patch and keep that feedback flowing!

After the official launch of our game, we’ve received attention from players all over the world. Many players from certain regions have expressed a strong desire for localized versions in their native languages. To address this, we are actively working with new translation companies to make this happen. In the first phase, we will be adding Korean, Russian, and other localized languages.

If you’d like to see your language added, please let us know in the comments so we can carefully evaluate the demand—your feedback is invaluable!

Hello, Commanders! We're thrilled to announce the launch of brand new key visuals for both IDUN and IDUN: Prologue! We hope you'll love them as much as we do. We've adopted two completely different visual styles for the Prologue and the main game. The Prologue features a vibrant, anime-inspired design, while the main game version has a more traditional sci-fi style - hardcore yet stunningly cool! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/a39264c2799af7e3637495a8b97db763addf63af.jpg Main Game's Key Art {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/b4f94c4361e260347ea5ebeb5823296974fb56fb.jpg Prologue's Key Art This is also our way of saying how much we value the Prologue game. Prologue is not just a simple demo but a "final rehearsal" leading up to the full release. You can even think of it as a standalone indie game. The Prologue is set to release in the first week of January 2025. We'd really appreciate it if you'd add it to your Steam wishlist, which will help us climb the Steam Popular Upcoming chart and draw more attention to our work. Thank you for your support! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3116470/IDUN/ Even more exciting news is on the way - we're actively preparing the game's official release trailer. The exact release dates for both the Prologue and the full game will be revealed soon. Stay tuned!

We’re thrilled to finally share some exciting news with you! During Steam's Tower Defense Fest, we released a brand-new, updated demo. This version not only improves gameplay flow and details but also introduces multiple new localization languages (including Chinese, Japanese, and more). Even now, we are seeing new players downloading the demo and adding IDUN to their wishlist. We’re truly grateful for your ongoing support! Some of you may have already noticed the major revamp of our Prologue store page. We’re excited to announce that we’ll be launching our free Prologue ahead of the full game’s release! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/61035aa37900685d00b8a45d9959be66f5079748.jpg This Prologue is not just a repeat of the demo—it’s a completely free, standalone experience featuring a unique rogue-lite arena mode (whereas the main game will center around its story-driven campaign). In this Prologue, you’ll be thrown into the heart of the swarm. Survival is the only strategy that matters! The rogue-lite strategy gameplay featured in the Prologue will also be included in the full game at launch, alongside the full story campaign. So, we truly hope you’ll give the Prologue a try as it will offer a fresh and unique experience compared to the current demo. We’re incredibly excited to hear your thoughts once you dive in! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/c1b95b4ef380f6697c936c0668ebdd3fa3a72872.jpg Finally, we kindly ask that you add "IDUN: Prologue" to your wishlist. This simple action is incredibly important to us! The growth of our wishlist directly fuels our motivation and momentum to deliver the best experience possible. We sincerely thank you all for your continued support! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3116470/IDUN/

What

Circle Select allows you to quickly and efficiently select multiple turrets with a simple click-and-drag motion. This makes moving a lot of stuff way easier.

How

Activate: Click and hold the on a draggable,

Wait: Keep still until the circle select becomes active

Resize: Move away to create a circular selection area.

Release: Finalize your selection by releasing.

Drag: Click and drag one of the selected and watch the magic happen!

Why

Its been requested more than once, to be able to move many things at the same time. Imagine you want to fall back to defend the Deep Drill or cover another flank, But, it is not as easy as it sounds to implement a system to move several buildings at the same time. What happens if there is no valid position, or when finding a new valid position another building also wants to move there? I also have the design goal for the game to be playable with just one mouse button, to maintain accessibility. The solution was easy for me, I just made John do it! It was not easy for John though. : ) Big shout out to John who did the majority of the work!

Nordic Game

As a side note, I showed IDUN at Nordic Game here in Sweden. It was great fun as always to lure people in that normally don't play RTS games, and see them killing their way to a close success in the end. Lots of high fives. : ) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43358829/325f1874a2ca1f3bdce1b98e7d3507e7b506ba68.jpg We’re looking forward to your feedback as always and thank you for your support! /Gustav
