Sieve through Steam Summer Sale is never easy. There are too many options. For indie developers, it means poor discoverability, meaning that millions of dollar projects are obscuring years of labor of love. This is just one area that Indie.io can help. In addition to massive discounts at this year’s Red-Hot Steam Summer Sale, we highlight a small selection of collections that are currently enjoying major content updates.
Whether you’re looking for something new or vowed to pick up an early access release with some patches, this wave of content drops should offer something to sing about this summer. From adding an armored vehicle decorated in a tense zombie survival game to stacking new material for a married couple working on a dream swashbuckling simulator, there’s a sticky load.
Siren your old sea hut and board the boat and return to the bottle. Accumulates a newly discovered pirate paradise in crew buildings. All the way from coffee farms and breweries to working tiki bars, work orders mean that bands and gals of lesser marleys can try their hand at making supplies for the rest of the team. Capitalism, Ho!
Pieces together this quiet place for the crew of Swashbucklers and Deckhands unlocks the means to take on repeatable trading and delivery missions, stacking cash by offering the desired trade wooden frame of the day. See what is in demand, climb the workbench, chart the trading port courses, and refill a little coin to those dusty financial resources.
With the right gear on your deck, you’ll quickly build a bank. Why clean up buried treasures when you have the money to make from good old hard grafts? You can also view loot in the new Treasury building and earn Treasury bills over time. I’ve heard Captain Knicks liked them.
Do you wonder why he lived a pirate life just to ferry Schrödinger’s contraband? With new sheik and destruction missions added, there is plenty of work for old sea dogs like yourself. Even heaven is not as safe as you might think.
Like dragons soaring with the smell of golden mountains, the Crakens can come out of the waters around your home, tempting you to trade with many of your treasures.
If you try, you may find unstable booty on the belly of the beast. Speaking of fights, if a six-month commander and his band of cargo thieves get your goods, you need to put your sailor skills on the line to defeat him with dangerous delivery.
Do you prefer to tackle the undead on the nasty pirates? Return to the Apocalypse with another major update from Humanitz and Armored Frontier updates.
In addition to properly supporting Brazil with Sao Paulo’s Bisect Hosting Private server, the game’s small team responded to player feedback and introduced heavily armored vehicles. Push through the horde as you drive a bold drive to a new location or hatch your desperate attempts to escape fate. In addition to how to boost range and mask vehicle sounds, you can kit the car with three layers of armor. It is a potential lifesaver from the tires that have deteriorated due to use. At least the tire iron doubles as a killer’s melee weapon.
But despite the name of the summer update, it’s not just the vehicle going up to the plate. Three new firearms have also been rediscovered.
So, whether you’re checking out new locations like transport dockyards and mining sites or rediscovering just-updated airports, you’ll need to rethink your regular loadout when you set out to find a secret bunker that’s been hearing Bandit Lockers and Campfire Rumblings. Please note: you may need to assume certain new skills to enjoy the reward.
Have you already counted down the days until Halloween? If you are pulling summer hibernation and stealing your bank on arrival in autumn, get out of bed and escape pumpkin spices. Well before the schedule there is a massive Hauntsville update ready to ring in the creepy season.
Please use Steam Summer Sale Discount in Hauntsville. You can ride Halloween with the new railway expansion update.
Put your truck down, activate the locomotive, and run through the cursed west. This ambitious new update brings the Industrial Revolution to the corner of your frightening state. As long as you have coal to power you through the road ahead, you can use your freight train to take on a fear like never before, or carry rare and powerful items from the corner of the dusty plain to the other corner.
