The Crunch Element Overhaul Update Devlog is here!
After over a year of focused development, Crunch Element has been completely overhauled from core systems and visuals to gameplay and progression.
🔹 Contract & Stage System: Missions are now structured with story-driven contracts and multiple playable stages.
🔹 Enemy AI Rework: Smarter, more coordinated enemies that flank, search, and react with emergent tactics.
🔹 Progression & Loadouts: Earn XP, unlock gear and attachments, and customize your loadout from anywhere.
🔹 New Objectives & Interactables: Keycards, hacking, defense tasks, optional objectives, and modular puzzles.
🔹 Visual & Performance Upgrade: Every asset reworked, with full precomputed lighting for VR-optimized performance.
🔹 Expanded Hideout: A social cantina, new tutorial, and immersive hangar experience for mission flow.
🔹 New Gear & Items: Force fields, deployable shields, scanners, breaching rounds, and the Sentinel turret. 🔹 Improved Weapon Handling: Ammo types, chamber checks, charging handles, and realistic behavior across the board.
