What is this new version about?. Disco Destruction: The Unmuted Update.:


Dear players,

How is everybody doing? We hope you enjoy your festive days as much as we do.

There are two things we want to share with you.

First of all, there’s a small update ready for you. The customers now have a better voice (text-voice, that is).







Now, they are going to give you much more specific feedback on how well you’re doing. Go on, check it out yourselves!

Secondly, this will probably be the last update of this current Early Access phase. Up until now, we wanted to test our core ideas, get feedback and, of course, learn how to make a fun VR game.

And we think we got what we wanted.

So, from the beginning of the new year, we’re going to share more about the next version of Disco Destruction: A much bigger, much more polished game, that will also have a (fair) price to it.

It’s still going to stay in Early Access, though, at least in the beginning - and we’re going to need all of you to help us make the best game that we can.

So, until our next update, please enjoy Disco Destruction, break things and get ready to experience its world as we originally imagined it.

(ps. Our Steam Community is always open for your comments and your additional thoughts on what you would like to see in a bigger Disco Destruction experience.). Getting ready for Late Access: Come join our Discord!:


-- Discord invite here: https://discord.gg/VkG9Xz2 --

Dear players,

we're very happy to say, that it's only a matter of days until the release of Disco Destruction: Late Access.

This is going to signal the beginning of the last phase of Early Access, which will take the game to what we originally envisioned, through often feature updates. And these "features" are going to be fun!

But until this happens, we want to talk to you - and know you better.

For this reason, we started a Discord channel[discord.gg] where we invite you to join. This will be the place to keep in touch with each other, and get your feedback or solve any problems (if they arise).

Also, if you join the Discord[discord.gg], we'd like to send you a message to chat a little bit, and ask you some questions that will guide the final phase of our development.

Thanks again for the love that you have shown to our little game and we hope to create something that you will love even more.

. The December Update is here - with a new level!:


Dear players,

One month after the release of our “Late Access”, we’re back with our first update.

We talked with a lot of you (some had spent many hours on the old Early Access) and asked you for specific feedback for the new version.

And according to all of that, in this update, you will find many important improvements (with even more coming later) - but let’s list the biggest ones:

• A new level: You can now select a level for your Arcade session: Either inside the club, or in front of it.
  The level is part of the planned Story mode - but for now you can have fun making your customers happy (and making money) as usual.
  
• Much better feedback for the customers’ mood changes: Whenever a mood change happens, positive or negative, you’re going to have a strong visual and audio cue.
  We think it makes it much more fun, and of course, it gives you a better understanding of how the customers feel about your playing.
  
• You can now drink from the bottles!: This has been a looong-standing request - but now you can drink from the bottles around AND it will affect you. :)
  
• Song names: Another very requested feature. Whenever you touch/grab a vinyl, you will see the song title and artist name.
  
• A new Power-Up: A party firework to light up the mood - buy it from the Tech guy.
  
• Christmas Decorations: For the next few weeks, it will be snowing in the outside level - and the customers will have their Santa hats on.

We hope you have fun with the update - that’s what we'd like the most. Also, check out a video, showing-off these features:
https://youtu.be/HBND3W6gFzQ
And we’re already working on the next one, which will include the overall most requested feature: The ability to add your own music, along with a Free Play mode.

We’re very excited for this - and we’ll be waiting to see your playthroughs, when the time comes.

Again, if you want to talk to us, to give us feedback or suggest something, we invite you to our Discord chat room: discord.gg/VkG9Xz2

Until the next update, have fun and enjoy the holidays
The Subjective Team. Disco Destruction - The Scratching Update.:


Dear players,

Just one week after the first release of Disco Destruction, we have already gotten lots of interesting feedback. Today, we have our first update ready, that, among small bug fixes, adds a new and very fun element to the game: Vinyl Scratching!

So, update the game, put a disc on and start scratching! But don’t overdo it, or else the customers will get angry.

Please note that this is the first implementation of the scratching feature and we would also like your feedback on how it feels, or what would make it even better.

For a full list of the main changes in this update:

• We added the scratching functionality. Now, you’ll feel like you’re DJing even more.
  
• We added a restart button in the disco level (just press the Menu button to see it). This will make it easier to stop a night that goes bad…
  
• There’s a Quick-Play button in the Intro level. It will only show up after your first playthrough.
  
• The bottles now have liquid in them. Please, don’t drink it!
  
• Technical stuff, in some places, were fixed.

Please enjoy our game, and remember: the discussions on our Steam Community Page are always open for you to post your experience and feedback.

We'll be back soon, with more news - and of course many more updates to Disco Destruction!

Cheers,
The Subjective Team. February Update: What we've been working on!:
Dear players,

Hello again after a few months of “radio silence”. We hope your new year started on the right foot.

For us, we think it did - and we want to share a few things about what we’re working on at the moment.



The end of Early Access Updates.

When we started building Disco Destruction, we were already programmers and gamers, but we sure didn’t feel comfortable calling ourselves Game Designers. That’s why we started building our first game right in front of you, through our free Early Access and our constant, iterative updates.

During these 7 months, we tested our ideas, got to know our players and learned some things about what makes a VR game fun.

So, we decided that the basic idea of Disco Destruction works. And now, it’s time to release what we've always had in mind.

That’s why, since the beginning of the year, we’ve been working full-time on the new version. The goal is to take what made Disco Destruction fun, and make it look better, have more duration and expand a little on the story ideas.

The work is going great and we believe that around late March we’re going to begin Beta testing it.

Around April, is also our target for the “Late Access” release: Still Early Access, but self-explainably later than the previous one. That version is going to be our full game and maybe the Early Access tag will remain to explain our plans for some more additions that we’re thinking about.

That version, also, is going to have a price - but we’ll talk about this soon.

Where we are now?

At the moment, we have done a lot of work to streamline the main gameplay to support a “nights progression”, where each night is going to vary in difficulty.

We are constantly working on making everything look better. The art style is new (forget the blocky aesthetic), the level is a whole piece of a Miami neighborhood (not just the club’s main area) and you’re going to be able to move around freely.








We know, you always wanted these (we also did), but things take time to make. :)

We’ve also reworked the behavior of the Customers to make them react to many more of your choices. They’re going to feel much more alive!

We have also changed the Disc Selection system. In the Early Access builds, the discs came in a random order after a specific waiting time. Forget that!

Now you’ll be able to select whichever disc you want and play it. You’re the DJ and it should be your choice. But, you’ll have to work hard, to make some money and buy better discs to better suit your customers' tastes and leave your mark in Miami’s nightlife.





And who’s gonna sell you those discs? We’ll talk about that in the next update.

Until then, take a look at some screenshots from our work in progress and don’t forget to watch our new trailer, that includes a teaser for the next, big version in the end.

See you,

. Spend your "VR-money" in the Power-Up Update.:


Dear players,

with the weather becoming colder, there’s no better time to use your forehead warmer of choice (Oculus Rift or HTC Vive).

Another good reason is because we have a new update ready for you. And we consider this to be the best update since we released.
