Hi friends,

Update 4 has gone live! This update includes:

• Run-to-run progression: The First Unlockable starter classes including unlockable starter upgrades
  
• New upgrade chips
  
• New room variations in Mines
  
• 90 Hz support for Oculus Quest 2
  
• Adding full body suit haptics support
  
• Polishing early game experience
  
• Features new hand models for specific classes
  
• Features improved hand poses
  

This is our first large content update that introduces run-to-run progression. This feature has been requested multiple times by many fans, and we heard you all loud and clear!

Unlockable starter classes

Players, upon reaching certain stat thresholds or completing challenges, will now unlock starter classes that you can choose whenever you start a new run. Selecting a class will spawn you into the world with a class-specific loadout. For example if you choose the Sniper class you will spawn in with a rifle and marksman related upgrade chips. When you play as a class, you will also unlock upgrades for that class as you progress through the game! These unlocks are permanent, so you will always have them for future runs.

This is the first major step in the direction of progression in Sweet Surrender, and we are confident that the addition of these classes will enhance replayability and allow players to indulge in their preferred play styles.

New Level Content

Since launch, the Mines district has grown by 30% in new playable content. This number is even larger when taking into consideration our improved level generation and sub-room variations.

Now that our tools are robust, it’s fun just cranking out new rooms. Expect more.

New Upgrades

In this update we’ve included 2 new healing chip families, including healing stim amplification and healing upon gear pickup. This is in addition to the recently added Trickshot and Thorn chips. Have you tried combining a High capacity and Blaster chip? It’ll clear a room like nothing else, just don’t blow yourself up!

Needless to say, we will keep adding new upgrades. No new weapons in this update, but stay tuned...you won’t be disappointed.
