Hunger Development Update Details Stash Mechanics and Tech Test 3 Progress
Good Fun Corporation details the Stash system in Hunger alongside broad development progress. The update covers anti-cheat integration, weapon balancing, melee responsiveness, and preparations for Tech Test 3.
Good Fun Corporation releases a development update for Hunger, detailing the mechanics of the Chateau's Stash and outlining structural progress across backend infrastructure, combat feel, and performance optimization.
Stash and Storage Systems
Located within the Chateau and managed by Louis, the Stash serves as the primary hub for currency and equipment storage. Each character maintains a unique Stash starting with fifty item slots, ten weapon slots, and four expansion slots. Reputation upgrades unlock additional slots for bags, which trade inventory capacity on Expeditions for permanent storage flexibility. A shared Vault becomes accessible for higher-level characters across the account.
Combat and Movement Iteration
Combat systems undergo balancing, including weapon attribute adjustments and integrated anti-cheat solutions. Melee combat features improved hit registration, responsiveness, and a dismemberment system. Movement incorporates a stamina-based dodge mechanic to manage defensive options during engagements.
Performance and Onboarding
Developers complete a performance optimization pass across various hardware configurations, adding an option to disable Lumen in favor of Screen Space Global Illumination for improved framerates. A structured tutorial is also implemented to onboard new players.
Why this patch matters
The development team prioritizes foundational stability, anti-cheat integration, and inventory infrastructure ahead of upcoming public testing milestones.
