As it was written in Homer's Odyssey: etos ilthe periplomenon eniauton, or: "as the year rolled on, the anniversary came". And so here we are, just over 1 year into the release of PERISH! How did that happen so quickly? We've shared the ups and downs with you, dear player, as we all shared in dying and dying again to reach the vaulted halls of Elysium, only to be unceremoniously chucked into a fiery lake of punishment by the harsh strictures of King Minos himself. By this point, it's only fair that we take King Minos down a peg or two. As a small gesture of thanks to the thousands of you who h

PERISH has just had its fourth update! This time we've focused on improving the stability of PERISH during multiplayer and long play sessions. Additionally, the Tartaros difficulty has been updated to make it even more challenging for the bravest amongst you! Save Backups The saving system has been made more robust, and additionally it now saves 5 sequential backups that can be manually reinstated. This should mean even if you crash during a save you should have at least 1, if not more valid saves to go back to that aren’t far from your current progress. Saves can be found in %appdata%/Local/P
