-------------------------------about the game--------------------------------------
Void Foundation: Into The Void is a roguelite RPG game.

This game is very heavily inspired by SCP, Made in Abyss, Darkest Dungeon, 40K universe.
In this game, you will play as a void adventurer and join the Void Foundation. You will fight monsters in the void, extract void energy from them, collect monster materials to make equipment, and learn them... But be careful, a small misjudgment may lead to your death. But don't worry... because...

“Death — does not relieve you from your duty.​

—Military Training Officer, Department of Supervision

"Human beings think that the world behind the door is hell, but they never thought that human greed is the real hell."​

On the eve of World War II, an unknown explorer discovered a void gate. It leads to an unknown new world. There are endless terrifying monsters and various magical relics,new energy sources,endless treasures inside. Convinced this explorer to choose not to seal this door to the void. But this behavior led all mankind to a completely different historical path.

"We Secure/Explore/Research the Void!! Our technology and magic will bring salvation to mankind!!"​

Become a void adventurer, enter the terrifying void, find relics, defeat monsters, study them. And try not to die.

"Mutations, drug addiction, permanent injuries."​

The void itself is dangerous enough, now you have to deal with these problems.

"The research department may produce various research reports and records when studying these monsters."​

Even a seemingly weak void monster may have an interesting story behind it.

Hello, all D-class personnel.
Void Foundation: Into The Void are getting into early access on 2024/6/7.


-------------------------------------------Introduction------------------------------------------
The story tells that on the eve of the second world, an explorer discovered the Void Gate leading to the void. The new energy "void energy" brought back from this other world and the "relics" that can trigger magical miracles have greatly changed the direction of history, changing the human world from a development path focused on science to one that combines science and magic. A new historical route.

The player will be a "void adventurer" recruited by the Void Foundation 500 years after the Void Gate was discovered. He will be taken to the headquarters of the Void Foundation and begin to explore the void and recover void energy and magical relics job, but the void is a very dangerous place, and all kinds of void monsters and death traps are waiting for players.

Depending on the player's choice, the player can become a void adventurer as a volunteer or a slave, which will greatly affect the attitude of different NPCs towards players in many events, as well as the difficulty of the game. For example, if you are a slave, some void adventurers will treat you as a bandit and attack you in the void.

Different from ordinary JRPGs, Void Foundation is a relatively hardcore game. In addition to paying attention to their own sanity during battle, players must avoid mental breakdown during battle. There are also a series of series such as permanent physical damage/drug addiction/death door/trauma to slow down the performance of player characters in combat.


In order to deal with these situations, players need to make preparations before departure, use limited funds to purchase materials needed to explore the void, analgesics to restore sanity/medical materials to temporarily stabilize physical injuries/materials used in combat/monsters Materials to make equipment, etc.
In order to obtain funds for exploration, players need to sell things found in the void to the Void Foundation, such as monster materials/magic relics. However, the number of magic relics is quite rare. If you sell them, you may lose the corresponding magic permanently.
The main way to make money is to sell void energy. Void energy is simply the player's MP. Whether using skills/magic or attacking, void energy is needed. Moreover, void energy cannot be recovered naturally. Players can only absorb it from void monsters. Void energy is then converted into void energy batteries and sold to the Void Foundation.

For players who like setting (or SCP), you may want to check the information of various monsters studied by the Foundation in the Foundation database. Each monster has its research report and corresponding "special scene".

As you may know, I reworked the combat system a long time ago.
The current early boss battles are no longer suitable for the new system.
So I will rework these bosses.



-Boss : The Wise reworked.
It's HP is 30% lower.
But have more body part "heads".
Each head has its own magic and abilities.
This change only applies to the second and final stages of The Wise.
This rework should better fit it's "head eating monster" setting.

1 Warrior Memory fragment.
1 Unknown memory fragment
1 Blunt Resistant Relic Fragment
1 Soul Guardian Relic Fragment
Some of them are added to the old events. Some of them are added to the new events.

-Boss : Cleaner reworked.
Now this boss fight come with 2 small weaker cleaner.
Players can get extra rewards if they kill these small cleaners.
If not, they will flee when the boss is defeated.

-Some new reward had add to the Forest map.
1 Commander Memory Fragment
1 Unknown memory fragment
1 Stun Resistant Relic Fragment
1 Bleeding Resistant Relic Fragment
Some of them are added to the old events. Some of them are added to the new events.

1 Magic Evasion Relic Fragment
All of them are added to new events.

-Improve the new player experience. Some instructions now have pictures.

Also, chapter 4 start open test in playtest version.(Only progress to the final BOSS)(Localization not completed, most of the text are Chinese(around 70% chinese))

Hey there! I tried out the game for the feedback festival using the demo on the Steam page. You can watch it here if you are brave. There will be some overlap with my points made below, though. I only played the game for about 30 minutes to do first impressions.

Just to warn you, I tend to be one of the harsher critics on here.

Hello! Thank you for your comments.
I also sent you a playtest steam key privately, I hope you are interested in trying out the following content.
