DevBlog #5 - 2025 Recap

1 Jan

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from all of us at TeaMug Studios! A lot has happened in the development of Earths Edge:

Steam page & socials went live
Refined core gameplay
Improved audiovisual fidelity
Implemented Steam stats & achievements
Refactored our build pipeline

Steam page & socials went live

As of writing this blog, we've reached a total of 3099 wishlists on steam, which feels quite impressive given that we've only been sharing development progress for Earths Edge for just about 4 months.

Thank you for all your support, discussions and feedback! We really appreciate it!

Graph of the daily wishlists actions since steam page launch

Refined core gameplay

EM-BRs feel more weighty and Scorchers feel lighter. Interactions, movement and general combat responsiveness have been improved to make gameplay more intuitive and fun. UI Feedback has also massively improved compared to a couple of months ago, and work has just begun on implementing proper progression (Camos, weapon attachments, EM-BR Modules, etc.).

During internal playtesting we've really enjoyed what we have built so far, even without the progression system in place! Things will only improve from here on, and we're happy to share some playtesting builds with you sooner rather than later!
Gameplay has been improved across the board

As with every blog post, we want to share some new information: Scorchers have been given a new passive ability to help distinguish between classes a bit more, in addition to the class specific weapon bonuses:

Assault:

Health regneration starts sooner
(new) Tactical Sprinting lets the Assault reach POIs even quicker

Heavy:

Thicker armor reduces all damage taken by 15%
(new) Reduced recoil for all primary weapons

Scout:

Improved cycling and reload speed for sniper rifles
(new) Improved targeting systems let the scout see target outlines through walls

Engineer:

The Engineer can carry one more grenade of each type
(new) While embarked on its EM-BR or attached to the hull of a friendly unit, it passively repairs the hull of the EM-BR Unit

Note: The abilities for each class are subject to change, and/or may be scrapped entirely based on future playtesting. We are trying to make the class selection more meaningful, so some abilites will be changed

Improved audiovisual fidelity

Placeholder animations and sound effects were replaced, drastically improving overall quality (duh).

Implemented Steam stats & achievements

To better track player engagement, meta weapons and primary cause of deaths steam stats were implemented to help balancing the game through real anonymous data.

To showcase a couple of fun stats and numbers (because data is always fun) during playtesting:

Total Kills: 20282
- Of which were e.g.:
  - "critical" kills (e.g. headshot): 6010
  - SMG kills: 873
  - Incendiary grenade kills: 585
  - EM-BR Revolver kills: 425
Player deaths: 350
Total EM-BR Drops: 200
Shots Fired: 66290
Shots Hit: 42706
Respawns with LMG: 105
Stim ability used: 104
Distance traveled with Stim: 19.1km

Steam achievements also help track general progression and retention, as well as give the players something more to work towards (e.g. getting all achievements).

Here is a small excerpt of already added achievements, with more to come!

For the nerds:

Currently, the stats are "manually" grabbed via the steam web api on script execution, which serves the data in a json format which is then parsed via script and inserted into a spreadsheet. In the future, we want to automate this process via prometheus monitoring and visualize the data via grafana dashboards. I like data :)

Refactored our build pipeline

We’ve reduced build time from roughly 2 hours to 40 minutes per build job by adopting a stateless disk snapshot strategy for our build environment.

The disk snapshot contains all necessary components (git, Visual Studio, engine, etc.) and cached build files so the machine cant start compiling a build right away once created.

We are currently building on Azure and want to run the compile job on other hardware so we can still use our local machine since the packaging is quite resource intensive.

Thank you again for your continued support!

DevBlog #4 - Ear Candy

1 Dec, 2025

Getting it to sound just right

One of the most important factors for an entertaining experience is great sound. Without punchy gunshots, deep explosions, and a convincing atmosphere, much of the game's "oomph" is lost.

Sound Sample

This blog focuses specifically on the sound design for the orbital re-entry of objective equipment, which players are required to drop in from the Ark.

The Workflow

Believe it or not, but I am mainly using the OpenSource software Audacity[github.com] to mix and master the sound effects of earths edge.

The process starts with identifying and timing the animations critical events like the orbital re-entry, touchdown, flame bursts, and so on. With that structure in place, I source or record audio elements and layer them to produce the sound profile you've just heard!

This Objective Equipment Drop SFX, for example, consists of sounds like:

Car suspension
Jet engines
"generic" hydraulics
Propane torch flames
Ratchet clicking
etc.

All of these sounds get tweaked in different ways, and some end up sounding nothing like they did originally.

Bonus Sound Snippet

Please feel free to leave feedback via the steam comments, the contact form[http//localhost] or via Discord[discord.gg]!

We'd love to hear from you!

DevBlog #3 - Cannon Fodder

31 Oct, 2025

Here, have a bullet in the face!

Every horde has them: Cannon Fodder Enemies.

In Games like Left4Dead, they are the simple zombies, in Deep Rock Galactic its the Glyphid Grunt and in Space Marine 2 its the Terminid Hormagaunt.

In Earths Edges first faction, the Lunomites, its the simple Lunom Grunt.

The scanners just lit up like a Christmas tree!

You'll be facing off against these grunts as you explore the Edge of this world. Easy to spot:

Low health
Almost never encountered alone
Highly aggressive and fire sensitive

But why?

As some of you might now, we wanted to make a Mech FPS / Horde Shooter hybrid. That obviously means creating some swarm enemies that will keep you on your toes during the missions!

Lunom Grunts are exceptionally harmless on their own, but have their strength in numbers. If you get surrounded, you might be in a bit of trouble.

If you are keen on using shotguns, LMGs or incendiary grenades, you'll have an easy time against those.

Log Entry: Madness

[c]They were too human to be called monsters. Too aware, too broken, too shattered. They were more like echoes of something humans once used to be.[/c]

[c]It feels like a simple touch of the ore could infect them with something alive. Their skin cracked, and light seeped from within. Within mere days, crystalline structures began to grow from their flesh and bones, bursting outward as if the Lunom itself was trying to break free.[/c]

[c]They called them Lunomites. Mutated creatures that somehow retained a human resemblance. Lunom controlled them, pulsating within their new host, learning and remembering as they controlled their new body. People claim to have witnessed that the ore held memories and thoughts of an unknowable past and creatures.[/c]

[c]I try not to think about it too much...[/c]
