Area 86 is a physics-based escape room puzzle game. Control your robot in an interactive environment. Push, pick, throw, activate or destroy objects to escape.
Let's start with the most exciting news!
I decided to release [b]Area 86[/b] on [b]April 15th[/b] ːsteamhappyː
[i]( no matter what will happen )[/i]
The release version is still in heavy development, and no time should be wasted! ːcleanhourglassː
Have a release todo list which looks like:
[list]
[*]Last level development ( where you will need to defeat a corrupted AI system )
[*]Localization ( some strings missing )
[*]Achievements
[*]More polishing
[*]Robot customization? ( 50/50 chance that will make it on release, if not will come 100% in next updates )
[/list]
The first release version will contain the full first chapter!
In this chapter, you will have the possibility to complete more than 50 different tasks, puzzles, and challenges.
Including other robot saving and working together, if you decide to do so.

Of course, work will not stop after release, and more interesting features are waiting in the line of development. Like chapter 2 with more levels and cooperative gameplay!
Also thinking about how to improve [b]Area 86[/b] visibility and one of the options would be to release a proper demo version.
[i]( It would be awesome to release it before the release version - right? )[/i]
Let's talk about the new level that was added to the list.
As always, it contains breakable items, parkour, hidden secrets, and 10 tasks/puzzles to complete.
Also, there is a possibility to save another robot that is stuck in an ice cube. The new robot is bigger, heavier but slower. But don't think the robot is useless! It can become very handy by destroying objects or smashing shortcuts in walls.
