- Random VHS tapes that can be found on the map with spooky content in them, require a VHS Player to watch. (if clipping camera video footage is possible in the future, allow the VHS to be used to save the footage and rewatch them on TVs?)

- Diskettes and big Floppy's with secret information on them / scary stuff, secrets, etc. that can also be found around the map. Requires an old PC with a 3.5" and 5.25" diskette drive. (and a DOS looking OS)

- Also maybe combine them with signals or special signals, where the drives information has to be copied onto a diskette and then inserted into the old PC to filter out more information.

You after you post spoilers like a kid.

If you pick up the random red/green drives that appear in and around your base, those are the ones that explode.

The drives that you buy never explode, but if you mix them you are in for a bad time.

need a panic room

Woohoo!
Finally, I've been waiting for this!
Gonna binge play it all night!

However, none of the bugs that happened and are saved in your 0.7.0 will be fixed on 0.7.0b2 !

For that you do have to start a new save pretty much or reset everything.

Old saves seem to affect the latest version.

Try a clean save and see if things are still duplicate.

Somehow all that capslock makes me doubt that.

Hello, you are too young to play it and to be on the internet.

Well, ingame I don't think there is currently a use for them other than being able to print them out and pin them onto something.

I haven't tried sending a picture with a Drive Box yet though, no idea if it can attach. Or sending one with an Item Box to see if there is any reaction via E-Mail or event.

The other E-Mail is mainly flavour text and can be ignored when it comes to if you have finished the daily task or not.

All that matters is the "great job" E-Mail and the points.

Download and play the DEBUG version, it's fixed there along with other stuff.

Another small change (maybe?) that I personally would enjoy:

- Change Kurfurs name to Kerfuß.

ß is the German letter "sharp S", the pronounciation wouldn't really change except for the second "U" being pronounced slightly longer.

It would be closer to its original name but also keep you safe from any copyright issues, as it is different enough for that.

And it would have a double Funny:
English players would pronounce it as a B.
Swiss players would feel trolled, because Switzerland doesn't use (or refuses to use) the German "sharp S" letter "ß".

Read these 2 Threads with the Changelogs:
https://itch.io/t/3555063/debug-07-build

https://itch.io/t/3554709/voices-of-the-void-07-changelog-wip-spoilers

Keep in mind, 0.7.0 is not officially released yet.

Once the only download available is "[RECENT] 0.7.0" it will be an official release.

I think currently the only way is to remember it yourself and place them in a Box or a certain corner, to make it easier to remember.

The DEBUG version has a lot of fixes for most bugs, I would say it's worth to play it.

Delete all copies on the PC.

I don't think he wants it as a default change for everyone, but rather as a toggle for those that are colourblind.

Drastic colour changes for clarity in that special case would certainly be nice to have for them.
Accessibilty is a difficult thing to add (properly) unless you are experienced in that field.

Floating icons could be very immersion breaking though, I think playing with the colours to find good combinations for colourblind people (covering most or all colourblind conditions) would be a good way to implement this over a floating icon toggle.

Just a few more random ideas:

- Optional Graphics Filter: Dithering Effect like on the PS1.

- Optional Graphics Filter: 3D Anaglyph filter to use with 3D glasses!
(red-cyan ; red-blue ; red-green ; ColorCode 3-D ; magenta-cyan)

- CCTV Monitors which can be linked to only 1 specific camera each, you can wall mount them or build a desk/rack for them.

- Stackable Drive Racks (up to 3 on top of eachother)

(6 total, 2 left and 2 right from the PC, 1 on the far left and one on the far right end, if possible allow the player to decide the direction of the rails)
- ability to build/buy/add a sort of half dome for the top of the work desk. (maybe with mounting holes for CCTV Monitors, TV, Radio, maybe a mini-radar, etc.)

Allows you to gather different kinds of strange materials that you find (organic, fluids, crystals, ores, etc.) and research them under the Microscope. (will show regular stuff, then living bacterias and strange bacterias? microscopic blueprints of things?)
- Upgrade allows it to connect digitally to the PC so you save screenshots of what you are looking at.

- Along with that maybe a Bio-Station that allows you to try and grow cultures of organic materials you've gathered to research them further.

- Moon affecting the tide (ebb & flood) making certain things reachable/unreachable depending on the flood/ebb state.

I'd like the ability to "clip" camera footage, maybe 60 seconds max? (and have them play on the TV)
Similar to how the Digital Camera lets you save photos.

I love it so far! (ignoring the obvious bugs ofcourse)

The new base is amazing and terrible at the same time, just the perfect environment to get paranoid and spooked in.
I can't wait to see what else will come in the future, even though I probably haven't seen more than 20% of the content of 0.7.0a yet, I already feel impatient and excited for the next big update to come!

At the same time, after seeing a video of the old base, I kind of felt slightly homesick. Even though it wasn't as cool as the new one, it felt like home in comparison.

Please keep this amazing work up, VOTV is one of the very few indie games that actually got that special something that makes it an amazing game!

to pick

The game does not save when:
An Event is happening.
You are sitting on the ATV.

It walks on the road not  out the garage, make it a line at the bottom of the ramp.

Bugfix update is out! 0.7.0a!!

Nice!!!

Place 2 boxes on the path to block its way and hope the Brownie Path will spawn, only then you can make the event end.

You can deactivate "Food tolerance" under the experimental settings in the options menu, it's the small orange "E"-tab on the far right.

Open:

...AppData\Local\VotV\Assets\res.txt

And manually add your resolution into the text file.

Also deactivate "Automatic resolution".

Hold Kerfus with E while the plug is out, turn him upside down against the wall and hold him up and try to bounce the plug into the socket that way.

It's sad that this comment section is either filled with unreadable cyrillic or toxic trolls or both.

To dev: I hope you continue developing the game as you envisioned it and get enough support to put everything in it that you want.

Please also keep in mind, the comment section and Discord are like at most 5% or your total playerbase. Don't let a few toxic people influence you in a bad way.

Keep doing what you do, the remaining 95% of the playerbase absolutely loves your game.

Nice, I want to date thiccfus, I call dibs on him!

sv.target vehicle

Activate "The Funny Setting" in the options menu.

Kerfur parts stacked too high.

Red lines are material range limit.

I love the new base! But at the same time I hate it!!!

Amazing new update!

I know the exact date and time but in order to reveal it I have to solve a math question and I can't math, sorry 😥

Play more, get signals and send them with the drive box, go out and explore, look at the radar!

The Tower.

😥
