Sometimes games have the weirdest bugs. Sometimes these stay in a game far longer than they have every right to, maybe because they are simple and don't cause trouble, or maybe they are way more complex than they appear to be.The one bug in RUTHLESS:1 that was…
In DevLog #6, roughly a month ago, I announced that I would try out a slighty changed visual style for RUTHLESS:1, and bar some very frustrating moments trying to set up a new shader, I am quite happy with the results. For me, it was obvious that the style nee…
In case you have played a few hours of RUTHLESS:1, you may have noticed that some Mechs in your squad can be upgraded once they reach a certain Tier and Level. For example, the three start Mechs (Basher, Tazer and Spectre) all are eligible for upgrades once th…

At some point in the past, I had to admit something to myself. During the development of RUTHLESS:1, I cut corners, and not just once. I released features that were not really usable, did not polish the levels as much as I could have, and worst of all, I used …
Sometimes, changes in a game are not made to fix bugs or to add new features. Sometimes, a change is simply made to show the player information that was already there, but not shown or, like in this case, in an inconvenient spot.You might know that in RUTHLESS…
Some time ago, I encountered a bug during development, that caused RUTHLESS:1 to relentlessly duplicate the mechs in my storage, well above a number a 1000. Obviously, this comes with the unwanted side-effect of bloating the respective savefile. It did not tak…
If you ever dipped a toe into game development, you know that testing is a core activity in the process. How else would you know if things work? During my latest bug-hunt, I was replaying a major portion of RUTHLESS:1 from the get-go, without developer tools I…
Dear players, RUTHLESS:1 is finally in Early Access. I want to thank everyone, who has test-played any previous version of the game and everyone, who kept up with the development. You really kept me motivated. Once again, I want to apologize for missing the in…
