[www.radicalfishgames.com]Hello, everyball!

On this day, 3 years ago, the 1.0.0 full version of CrossCode was officially released for PC, after years of development and Long-Early-Access. We will celebrate this special occasion with a gift to all our supporters and also use the chance to give you an update on our next game, Project Terra!
We will be celebrating the 3rd anniversary of CrossCode with the last proper (non-hotfix..) release, which would be version 1.4.2!

Luckily it contains almost no new content that we had to actively work on, because the main change would be the removal of the exclusivity of the "Platform-Exclusive Quests". That's right, now players on PC can also do the quests that were only available on Switch/XBox/Playstation before, and the same will be true for all the consoles, once the version will be released on them in the near future! Of course this also means that all the related pets can now be found by everyone!

And as an additional goodie, we also added another Custom Cup which allows re-fighting battles from those quests with adaptive levels, so even high-level DLC characters with ascended gear are in for a challenge!

Other changes include Combat Arts for an ally that mysteriously never got any (whoops...), a 5 years overdue fix of a legendary bug regarding music-looping and some more minor bug fixes, typo fixes and balance tweaks!
Regarding out next project, so far known as Project Terra, we are still working on a playable prototype while also refining our editors and creative vision.

In a recent post[www.radicalfishgames.com] we also presented the design of our main heroine, Juno!

The reception was very positive and we almost instantly received amazing artworks by fans!

For now, we're still focusing on getting all the core mechanics worked out. Here's a preview of how things look right now:

If you're curious about our next game, make sure to keep an eye on our blog[www.radicalfishgames.com] and Twitter, where we'll post most of our progress.
 


And with all that being said, it's time to finally say goodbye to CrossCode after almost 10 years of development.

Thank you so much for supporting us over all those years!

Now, it's time for us to focus on new things!

[www.radicalfishgames.com]Special thanks to YuiKannon, who has done many CrossCode-fanarts in the past, for drawing those amazing artwork of this post! You'll likely see more art from her in the future on our blog!

Hello everyball!

Starting today, you will find the cast of CrossCode in (yet) another indie game: the deckbuilding card game Quantum Protocol! For the occasion, we also release another hotfix for CrossCode, adding bunch of fixes, a tiny bit of content, as well as a small group of guest characters!


With today's update, Quantum Protocol will include a whole set of new cards featuring several CrossCode characters as well as the four elements for you to use!

Here is an overview of all newly added cards:

Those cards work in a unique way reflecting the mechanics of CrossCode. You can read more about it in this blog post

You can get Quantum Protocol on Steam here:
https://steamproxy.com/steamstore/app/1328530?utm_source=collab&utm_campaign=crosscode



We released another hotfix, mostly fixing bugs and spelling issues. There's also a few small content additions, including:

A new Supporters' Cup to be found among the custom cups, adding a few more quest related boss battles to the arena.

A new room above the Rhombus Square Item Shop assembling a whole bunch of traders for all kind of items.

A couple of guest characters from Quantum Protocol just vibing in a certain inn. Have fun finding them! Unfortunately, with no new dialogs this time.

And that's it!

Meanwhile, the CrossCode New Home DLC is currently being ported to consoles and we'll let you know once a release date is certain.

And otherwise, we're all hard at work on Project Terra, currently working on a lot of things, including a new animations system:

We'll likely create another post about Project Terra in the future, showing things a bit more in detail.

And that's all for today! Until next time!

Hello everyball!

CrossCode is finally complete! Or is it?

As some of you might remember, we introduced you to a certain someone, exactly 6 years ago[www.radicalfishgames.com].

Now guess who's back?
<!--more-->

Playing as Lea is great and all, but some of you might miss an option for a protagonist who simply is... manlier.

That's why we proudly present to you, once again:

Only this time Manlea is real

You can play CrossCode, being Manlea.

You can beat up enemies, being Manlea.

You can talk to other characters, being Manlea*.

*Keep in mind that Manlea is still Lea, but manlier. She's still referred to as Lea and with she/her pronouns (a.k.a. we didn't adapt any dialogs).

Manlea is now available as a Skin DLC on both Steam and GOG!

Get Manlea on Steam
Get Manlea on GOG[www.gog.com]

This is no April's Fools joke.
This is real.

Today just happens to be Manlea's 6 years anniversary[www.radicalfishgames.com].

With all that being said:

Have fun being Manlea in CrossCode!

Also: if you now, for some reason, feel like screaming at us, we'll be available in another gamedev stream this Saturday 20:00 CEST / 11am PDT on our Twitch Channel[twitch.tv]

Hello everyball!

So... we're not entirely done yet! Today we'll release another small update for the DLC Crosscode: A New Home, adding a bit of more optional content!

<!--more-->


This update includes a bit of optional content that we originally hoped to released a month ago, but didn't quite manage to finish in time.

Version 1.4.1 includes 3 quests as well as a couple of arena cups and new Trade Offers in Rhombus Square.

Note that the new content is part of the A New Home DLC and not included in the main game.

Here a few impressions of what's included:

Actual boss enemies can be properly seen in the game!

This update is pretty much the final content addition to CrossCode! With following releases we only plan to fix remaining bugs and issues.

That means, after over 9 years of development, CrossCode has finally been completed!


We noticed that several players are now counting on a sequel to be developed, especially due to a certain cutscene in A New Home.

We sort of regret adding that cutscene, because the truth is:
Right now, there are no plans for a sequel to CrossCode.

We definitely had a great time working on this title and see the world and its characters grow.
But after 9 whole years, we are ready to work on something new.


We're currently in the prototyping phase for our next game.

That games doesn't have a proper name yet, but it does have a temporary project title:

Project Terra

Project Terra will be an Action-RPG, with a gameplay mix similar to CrossCode, featuring a new setting and story line!

Here are a few impressions you might have seen recently on twitter:

https://twitter.com/lachsen/status/1346589705052299270

https://twitter.com/RadicalRegiden/status/1352623637715705857

It doesn't look much like a game yet, but we'll get there! Right now, we're mostly working on tools.

We'll talk more about the new project within the next few months.

But for now, a short disclaimer:

That's right! The state of Germany is financially supporting the development of the Project Terra prototype! Yay! Tax money well spend.

So yeah, expect more, hopefully exciting news soon!

Until then!

ついに出ました！2年も経ちましたが、やっと最後のクロスコードのコンテンツアップデートを出すことができました！
クロスコード：ニューホームはSteam>/a>と[url]GOGで10%割引で購入することができます！
ゲーム本編をまだ購入されていない方のために、50%割引セールを開催しております！
すごくお安い値段でコンテンツ大量のゲームを手に入れることができます！

DLCの新しい音楽が好きで作曲家を応援したい方は是非、新しいの購入をお願いします！Bandcamp[interovgm.com]とSteamやなどのストア[distrokid.com]で購入できます！
このサウンドトラックにはDLCの新曲だけではなく、最初のサウンドトラックに入りきらなかった、クロスコードのゲームで最近流れた他の曲、早期体験版やアーリ―アクセス版で流れた曲なども入っています！
開発チームはスケジュールを守るのが苦手なので、リリース間際で大量にテキストを増やしてしまいました。ローカライズチームの皆様が全力を尽くしましたが、DLC配信までにはローカライズが100%終わっていないかもしれません！なので、未翻訳テキストを見かけた場合（多分、サイドクエストや他の、メインストーリーと関わらない部分）はご了承ください。本当に数日前に追加したばかりのコンテンツになりますので！ごめんなさい！
幸い、現在、翻訳作業を猛スピードで進めていますので、終わり次第ゲームを更新していきます。一週間以内にできると思います！
このDLCはメインストーリーの続きですので、プレイするにはまずクロスコード本編のストーリーをクリアする必要があります。そして、グッドエンディングを見る必要もあります！

アルバートに話しかけてください！ここから、メインストーリーが分かりやすい感じで進んでいきます。

次のミーティングで、アルバートの友達が必ず納得するような会話のセリフを選択してくださいね！

それから、朱染の荒地のレイド、最後のダンジョンと最後のボスを簡単にスキップして、グッドエンディングを見ることができます！

手順通りにできたら、グッドエンディングを見た後にクロスコード：ニューホームをプレイすることができるようになります！

[/list]
ニューホームのDLCはニューゲーム＋のセーブファイルでもプレイできます。セルゲイのハックなど、ニューゲーム＋だけの要素でセリフが若干変わるかもしれません。しかし、ニューゲーム＋で遊ぶと難易度がすごく下がってしまうということだけを忘れずに！
まずは普通のセーブファイルでプレイすることをおすすめします！
このDLCは私たちにとってすごく久しぶりの大きなリリースになるので、他の大きなリリースと同様に、バグが発見される可能性があるとご了承ください。私たちは何度もテスティングをし、長いベータ版テストを行いましたが、経験上言えることは、かならずバグが出てくるということです！
なので、私たちはいつでもパッチを配信できる準備をしております。できれば来週か再来週に出す予定です！
最悪な状態のバグが出ないと良いですけど...念のために準備をしたい方は、メインストーリーのクリア後のセーブファイルのバックアップをおすすめします！
以上です！DLCを楽しんでください！そしてストーリーの続き、新しいバトルとパズルを思う存分堪能してください！
では！

Hello everyball!

As you can see, we finally have news for you regarding the CrossCode post-game DLC!
Not only do we have a trailer for you, there's also a release date!

The post-game DLC CrossCode: A New Home
will release for Mac & PC on February 26, 2021!
The release for consoles will follow this summer!

You can already wishlist the DLC on Steam!

Here a list of things you can expect:

An extended Rhombus Square that even includes a beach now!

The new area "Azure Archipelago" - ready to be explored!

Finally completing the raid!

The new Ku'lero Temple - probably the biggest dungeon of the whole game.

Several new quests all around CrossWorlds - you might even end up on a highway!

An extension to the main plot - learn more about how things continue for Lea and the others.

Of course, this DLC also comes with new, exciting music tracks to make the final chapter of CrossCode a very memorable one. However, our usual composer Deniz Akbulut[interovgm.com] unfortunately wasn't available anymore at this time to make the last CrossCode tracks. He recently has moved to Japan to learn Japanese and enter a university to study music. He had to put his full focus on preparing for the tough entrance exams; his last exam was today actually!

He recommended a good friend of his, who is also incredibly talented, to take over the burden of finishing CrossCode's soundtrack. So, we are proud to announce that the new DLC will feature new music written by はがね/STEEL_PLUS[steelplus.xyz] (Twitter)!

We know it took us a while, but as always we wanted to tune all those little knobs close to perfection. What came out of it is something we're very proud of. Thanks for all the support and allowing us to cramp everything in the DLC that we wanted. We did also try to incorporate feedback regarding the difficulty of puzzles (especially those that required precise timings). Once the DLC hits, please let us know what you think of them and the new puzzle element!

And with all that being said... see you again next week, for the release!

Hello everyball!

It has been a long time and we're finally back with a new update! We have news about the console versions as well as some words about the Post Game DLC release date.


CrossCode on consoles had a somewhat rocky release with a number of performance issues (especially on Switch). Luckily, most of the major issues have been fixed rather quickly! Unfortunately the certification of the patches for the different consoles took longer. At the time of writing, one patch is still in certification for the PlayStation 4. But we’re getting there. Work on following updates continues of course.

The next bigger update however will take a little longer. We have finally started on migrating to the latest build which means that we are also working on New Game Plus for the consoles. Due to the nature of how CrossCode runs on consoles (HTML5 inside a C++ application) this will take some time, as it requires additional testing of previously not included features. We are still quite optimistic to unleash the patch in 2020. But if you ask us for a specific date: No, we can't tell you when exactly NG+ is ready for consoles. But it will happen!

As you may already know, in celebration of the CrossCode release for consoles, we teamed up with ININ Games to give you a special limited SteelBook release and a really nice Collector's Edition! These two special non-retail versions of CrossCode are available for pre-order exclusively at the SLG Partner Store.

The Nintendo Switch Collector’s Edition is currently sold out, but there are still some couple of hundred copies of the SteelBook Edition left. The even more limited in numbers PS4 Editions are still available, both in the form of a Collector’s Edition - Limited to 1500 copies worldwide - and a PS4 SteelBook Edition.

All editions feature a sequential numbering, an individual number for each and every copy of the game, which shows off it’s exclusive nature in a really cool way! These editions will also feature a different (and reversible!) cover art than the regular retail version of the game.

Besides the console editions, we also have some good news for our PC fans. We are very happy that CrossCode will be given a physical PC release! As this version won’t be widely available at retail, the way to go if you’d like to own a PC copy of CrossCode will be to get it through the SLG Partner Store! The CrossCode PC Editions will be available as a SteelBook Edition, as well as a Collector’s Edition.


Work on the DLC continues! Here are few new impressions:

More progress on the new area! Things are still work in progress here!

A new location in the sky?

Look who is now in the game!

Now a little word about the release windows

In our last update we already mentioned that the release of the DLC will happen "hopefully this year".
Since the console release was more distracting for us than expected and also because we keep underestimating the amount of work ahead, we'd like to move the release window a little bit further.

The new plan is to release the post-game DLC in early 2021.

We know this is a bummer for many - initially we aimed to release the DLC in time for the second anniversary of the PC release.

However, ultimately we want to make sure that the quality of the DLC will match the rest of the game and for that we'll need a bit more time to bring the whole story to a (hopefully) satisfying conclusion.

Just remember: more time usually means a better result. That's why we had to postpone CrossCode 6 times before this already.

We are sorry for the delay but also hope you understand.
It will be worth the wait!

Until next time!

Hi everyball!

This Saturday we're going to stream the development of CrossCode here on Steam. For the first time. Die-Hard fans already know that we usually do this on Twitch. But now where the Gamescom is digitally live and we're part of the Indie Arena Booth, we've decided to give it a try on Steam as well.

Join us and watch how we make progress on the upcoming DLC!

Hello everyball!

It finally happened: As of yesterday, CrossCode has been finally released for consoles worldwide! And with today's release of version 1.3.0 we quickly follow up with a promise we made: an exclusive quest for the PC version!

The new quest is accessible in the end game (after you acquired the Meteor Shade) and can be found in Ba'kii Kum.

Version 1.3.0 additionally adds new combat attacks for certain (later) party members that were lacking in that regard.

There are also tons of smaller changes under the hood for the upcoming DLC.

Speaking of which...


Most of our time these days is spend working on content for the upcoming Post-Game DLC - and we're making good progress!

Here's a small gif of an upcoming new area:
Things are still WIP!

Our Private Beta Testers are also hard at work testing the new dungeon! Here's a little preview:
[www.radicalfishgames.com]There's also a new type of weapon called Ascended Gear. It will automatically scale with your level! yay!
[www.radicalfishgames.com]All that being said - we're still not done yet.
A release for PC will hopefully still happen later this year.
As for console version: the release of the DLC will take a bit longer, since all new content needs to be properly ported first.

And that's all!

Until next time!
