DISCOUNT & MEET YOUR MAKER BUNDLE
To mark the holiday event, Forever Skies now has a 20% discount, but that’s not all…
We have also teamed up with our friends at Behaviour Interactive, the crew behind the insane and extremely creative Meet Your Maker to create the Build to Survive Bundle.
Meet Your Maker is a dungeon shooter / building game of brutal expression and conquest. Unleash your inner evil genius in co-op or single-player to build the ultimate fortress of devious deathtraps, or take on those built by others in a high-stakes heist to steal resources essential for your survival and expansion.
And remember, if you already own Forever Skies you can still use the bundle to get an additional 10% off on top of their current discount for Meet Your Maker

UPDATE FEATURES & CHANGELOG
NEW ELEMENTS:
- “An Old Request” a time limited quest with rewards for completion
- Festive Small Town Location
- Weather - Snow & Blizzard
- Location - Desolated Radio Tower
- Device - Large Freezer
- Airship Decors
- Half-Railings (left and right)
- Symmetrical Half-Railings
- New designs for standard railings
- Immunity System redefined - more info below
We received a lot of amazing feedback from players regarding the issues they had with the Immunity mechanic following the Viral Evolution update. Due to this, Immunity will now be tied to the games story and progression, rather than being something else players need to manage (this won't affect the games difficulty.) Instead, during the current story, the players total Immunity will drop to 75%
Foreshadowing and a cutscene showing the Scientists disease symptoms getting worse have been added into the current story to show this from the start of the game. If you have completed the "Find Coordinates For Underdust Location" quest, your Immunity will just drop instantly, greeting you with the above screenshot when you load your save. This means players don't need to start a New Game to get the Immunity changes, but they can do if they want to see the new story elements.
Keep talking to us! Let us know what you think about the changes to immunity. This will be further developed with upcoming updates.
