Hello everyone! The second game from Game River Studio, "Out of Hands", has just launched!

"Out of Hands" has come a long way. The earliest version of the game was developed by our colleague Yang Zeyu alone during a Game Jam at the end of 2021. He created Out of Hands in his spare time. Because of the time constraint of the Game Jam, Yang Zeyu used his camera to take photos to create the game. To his surprise, the game won multiple awards, and we received a lot of positive feedback from players.

Encouraged by enthusiastic players, in 2022, we decided to expand this little demo into a complete game. Out of Hands was still mainly developed by Yang Zeyu, while other colleagues joined to provide assistance, including Chen Dingming, who later wrote most of the final game's code. This is an unconventional two-person team, with Yang Zeyu being the first member and Chen Dingming combined with others to be the second, which is somewhat fitting to the theme of "Out of Hands".

Time flies, and it's now three years later, 2025. After many delays, "Out of Hands" is finally here! The complete "Out of Hands" became a card adventure RPG. The protagonist of the game wakes up to find that his whole body is composed of many different hands. "Out of Hands" uses card game mechanics, stop-motion videos, IRL photos, and pencil-drawn maps to tell the bizarre adventure of a person who is trapped in their own mind.

The development process of "Out of Hand" was a wonderful journey full of surprises for us. And today, we hope that everyone else can experience a different but equally wonderful journey in the game!

Thank you all for your help along the way! We hope you enjoy our game!

Hound

• ATK 267 → 253（-5%）
  
• [Incendiary Bomb] Cost 200→300
  Developer's Note: After Arclight's nerf, the problem of [Incendiary Bombs] being too cheap became more obvious. This adjustment aims to bring Hound and Arclight to similar power levels.

Abyss

• ATK 3508→3859（+10%）
  
• HP 71191→78310（+10%）
  
• [Disintegration] will be enacted immediately at the beginning of the battle. The damage it causes to the enemy HP changes from 30% to 20%
  
• [Vertical Sweep] Cost 200→150
  
• [Photon Coating] Cost 150→100
  
• [Wreckage Recycling] Cost 150→100
  Developer's note: It seems that we were too cautious when launching Abyss, which resulted in its win rate being significantly lower than other units. We hope to improve its win rate through these buffs.

Initial Unit

• Sabertooth Arclight opening's player HP bonus -300→-100

Specialist

• Quick Supply Specialist's player HP bonus -300→-500
  
• Farseer Specialist's player HP bonus -200→-300

Now it is more convenient to challenge the same round repeatedly after taking over the replay.
