New Build available now!
I want to start off by saying thanks to all of you for not only your patience, but having worked with us up to this point. Peri has been an incredible journey, and we're proud to unveil a new build for patrons here. This is the build we are currently debugging for the demo release on the ninth. ...
Peripeteia Rat Tech Demo/Stress Test for Patrons
Please enjoy the Ratical Peri build. Let us know how many rats and/or roaches you were able to spawn on the map without your computer dying, play around with the settings. Basically, we'll definitely have less than 5000 critters per level BUT you can let us know what the upper limit is before it...
Apologies for the break + First look at the Kiln Gun!
First off I'd like to thank you all for staying with us the last while, as I know we've been brief with Patron updates the last while. I was undergoing a move to a new apartment as my last one was being torn down, which took... an unfathomable and frankly ridiculous amount of effort. We will...
A sky, but for where?
This is a progress screen of something I'm finding very fun to make. I tried to capture the 90s render look for it.
First Weapon Poll of 2023: Rukavishnikov VS OICW
Today, we have two schway prototypes. The first is the ubiquitous OICW, famous for its integrated computer systems and grenade launcher. This heavy, aesthetic, hell-gun never made its way out of the Objective Infantry Combat Weapon trials... but Peri's world is a very different place.Our second?...
Screenshot Saturday: Ironic Beliefs + A Ramble from Me
"Across the wired and in the city, strange beliefs and stranger people reside. Old gods, old rituals, revived, but only "ironically"... unless it works."---------------------------------------------------------------------------------This area has been really fun to design so far. Wh...
Lilith and Ishtar
Two club girls, who can see into your soul from CRT eyes.

Lore Post 3
P.S.R Report: Objekt 463 Szarańcza.We've been encountering corpses of these things on the front a lot these days. Built on the chassis of a T72, with some sort of hydraulic leg system installed. A lot of them are just laying in ditches or scuttled under the sand, it's hard to tell if they w...
Screenshot Saturday: Halls of Light
I wondered often if the tunnels were built by hand, or crafted by still-living machines left from before the fall...
Weapon Poll for December! :]
So, what's it going to be ya schway operators? I've been thinking about these two for a while, the kind of grungy 90s guns that belong in any post-soviet arsenal.Your choices are:MINEBEA PM-9: Really cool looking Japanese submachine gun from that kind of counter-terrorism era. Has a wood for...
Lore Post 2:
Indrid Cold, it was a name he picked up somewhere. He thought it might have been from some late night TV special, but it wasn't all that special.The aforementioned man had glazed his eyes over many times staring at the tube, all the fantastic images upon it. It was his life, his meaning to exist...
Lore post 1:
I've awaited a time in which arms may be laid down, for over thirty years have I waited.I rest within a tower of concrete in steel, my body suspended by wires. But I do not fear.I saw the rise of the Polish republics from the ashes of the old world order, a response to the collapse of everything...
How we build maps!
Since we've gotten some questions about this before:We use hammer++! Which can be got here: https://ficool2.github.io/HammerPlusPlus-Website/Then we use vmf2smd which can be acquired here to convert to an SMD file (it has the highest accuracy/least bugs of any vmf converter): http://www.onlynoob...
Updates to the wasteland, and somewhere beyond.
Some recent work by Shack, taking bits and pieces from realities here and beyond. Things within, without, and wasted.
A look into how we develop!
I had a realization today, how we develop maps is pretty distinct!One thing that kept coming up in patron builds was people noting that whilst there was a lot of maps, usually with distinct details, they could feel empty or incomplete. This is true, and it's part of our approach!Being two develo...
Possession Ability Showcase!
Something Shod has been working hard at, a possession ability! Lets you take over anyone you can get your hands on provided they are not immune, and allows you to pilot them for tactical interventions and immersive uses.Pretty fun to use, what do ya think you guys'll use it for?
How far we've come!
Thanks to everyone who commented on the last post! We're working on our next screenshot saturday right now, so I thought we could do something fun before I post that here:First thing's first, would you guys like to see me post about lore and dev stuff here? I can write out some snippets and ...

Question for Patrons!
Hey! I was curious if you'd all like to start seeing more posts/content here instead of just on the Discord. We want to show you all what your pledges have gone to, and how they've helped out development. I'm considering posting updates here to ensure you guys all get to see the fruits o...

Peripeteia OST download, December 2020: ihatecomputers
"You're up at four in the morning, your entire unity project has FUCKED itself. The code is just not compiling for some reason now and you have no fucking clue why, it's been hours, it's hot, your head hurts. You want to saw your own fists off by smashing them into your keyboard.You ...
Peripeteia OST download, November 2020: Nightclub
"I wanted to capture the sensation of frantically rushing around a high energy place you'd rather not be in, with music you'd rather not listen to. I just had a very strong conscious feeling that Marie doesn't like synthwavey stuff, and it's kind of at odds with the rest of the O...
Peripeteia OST download, November 2020: Flower
"I'm actually not sure what inspired flower, the guitar track was supposed to replicate that one song from lain (though it sounds more like a sped up In The Court of The Crimson King). The drums i just threw on because it felt appropriate..."An original track composed by the talented Bog...
Launching the Peripeteia Patreon!
Ok, there you have it. To be perfectly honest, we weren't planning to start this thing until our first public demo, but circumstances have changed. To keep a long story short (as some may have noticed), Snaketicus has recently lost his job that supported his work on the game. With some savings, ...
Peripeteia OST download, October 2020: Wasteland
This was originally composed for the game's third demo, where the newly created residential area included a hookah bar. The area was ugly as sin because I didn't know how to into PBR yet, but the song came out pretty good, fitting a smoke-filled, messy room where those without hope in life c...
Peripeteia OST download, October 2020: Ninjemnik
This is the first song ever composed for Peripeteia. Not especially memorable, but came out pretty good. This was made in about an hour during the original Ludum Dare, back when it was called Ninjemnik.Originally this played over the intro flyover of the compound area with a cool PS1 style voiceover...

In the world of Peripeteia, the Polish Solidarity Republic has introduced a doctrine prioritizing the use of non-lethan methods in law enforcement and encourages their deployment in military use as well. This is due to the years of soviet regime leading to many unlawful deaths and the former communi...
