Demo Update: The final pieces to complete the puzzle

May 23

Hello everyone,

We heard you! With the new demo update, we have added data lane end pieces to the game. These will help you complete your hex regions.

What's more, you can now expand the scoreboard to show all entries:

However, my personal favorite of all the improvements is the NEW SOUNDTRACK by composer Sascha Schiemann (Elemental War 2, Tri6: Infinite, CyberTD). It's a blast! Be sure to put on your headphones while playing. 🎧

Map of the Week

You've chosen your second Map of the Week, and the winner is Challenge of the Gates by user Locono1. And what a challenge it is! We didn't think something like this would be possible with the demo limits. Congratulations! 🎉

What's Next

With the next big update we will add the final sounds and introduce Hexapedia, an in-game wiki with short explanations for every aspect of the game. After that, the demo will be feature complete in our eyes, so we can fully concentrate on the full version (to be released on June 20th, mark your calendars 📅).

Hey everyone, To give you some insights into HexaScape, to talk about your feedback, and to challenge our developers playing their own game, we will stream the game regularly on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/bonnecw For now, the language in the stream is German. Next stream: Friday, May 10, 14:30 (CEST). Would be great to have you there!...

Demo Update: New Game Mechanic & Numerous Adjustments

May 13

Hi everyone,

We have uploaded an update to the HexaScape demo, but before we go into detail, we want to show you the first Map of the Week:

Map of the Week

You voted your first Map of the Week, and the winner is Chaos 3 by user silverstrife. Congratulations! 🎉

Of course you can play this map (and every single one of the now 16 user maps) in the demo of HexaScape.

Demo Update

HexaScape is a work in progress. Thanks to your feedback and some of our own ideas, the game is growing and hopefully becoming more interesting and accessible.

First and foremost, we've added a re-roll feature (inspired by Balatro, you may have heard of it 😉) that allows you to re-roll the dice for the current tile. According to our first tests, this feature increases the thrill enormously...

Here's a quick summary of other improvements:

We improved the performance a lot.
We improved some of the graphics, especially the towers.
We made the game more accessible, e.g. by turning on the display of the tower range by default and by weakening the bosses.
We fixed some bugs.
Map of the Week is now highlighted in the map overview.
[Map Editor] You can now name each biome in your maps as you wish.

New Early Access release date

And there's more to come for both the demo and the upcoming Early Access release! Speaking of the Early Access release, we will be delaying the release by one month and will be entering Early Access on June 20th. But don't worry, new maps for the demo are released almost every day!

Map of the Week Contest & German Stream!

Apr 29

Hi everyone,

Hope you all had a great week! Sun's coming out... Casting its rays on the virus-infested cyberspace. (What a transition! 😅)

Map of the Week

In HexaScape: Cyber Defense, you can create your own maps and upload them for everyone. As previously announced, we want to put your creations in the spotlight! Starting today, we will select the weekly best map winner together with you.

How to submit your map

You can submit any map in our "hexascape-submit-your-map[discordapp.com]" Discord channel. All we need is the title of the map and the username of the creator (you can either nominate your own or other creators' maps).

Any map created between Monday and Sunday is eligible. Maps created after Sunday will be part of next week's contest. For the very first voting, we will even allow maps that were created before the start of the contest.

Vote for the map of the week

That's simple. In the week after the submissions, all submitted maps will be presented in our Discord channel "hexascape-map-of-the-week[discordapp.com]". All users will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite. And the map with the most votes wins!

Stand in the spotlight for a week

Eternal (one-week) fame for the map of the week! 🏆

Twitch Streams (in German)

Last week, our Game Designer Sebastian streamed for the first time ever. Watch him struggle and eventually even play the game here:: Stream on Twitch (German)[www.twitch.tv]

That was fun! That's why we will be streaming again this Thursday, May 2nd, at 15:00 CEST. In this stream, we will take a deep dive into the map editor, build a map together, and test it afterwards. And of course Sebastian will keep you up to date on the latest game improvements.

We encourage you to follow our Twitch account[www.twitch.tv] so that you can be notified as soon as the stream starts!

HexaScape: Cyber Defense

You're not serious about this "demo"!?

People! Either you have a demo and have something to show, or if you don't have anything, then don't do a demo yet! Just don't fool people with this download! You can't be serious about me downloading the demo and then only being able to play the tutorial where I just follow instructions and that's it? The next level after the tutorial, where you could probably play and try it out yourself, you just can't go there and on! Guys, you're doing your game and your company a disservice with something like that....

Any chance of a linux build for the demo

Not sure how much testing has been done on that, but I am willing to try. (Though I am only on a laptop for the next week or two.)

Whoever made the first level should be fired

If you are going to spam messages like that, at least make them continuous. So annoying. not worth dealing with.
