Patch 0.2.0 - Across the Abyss: Voidborn


Hey space pirates, we are back with an update!

For us it feels almost like a new game in some ways. The most exciting new feature is the Hookshot: now you can pull and push enemies in order for them to explode! Kaboom! 


Patch 0.2.0 - Across the Abyss: Voidborn

Art Rework

  • Look at it from a new perspective, while we explore new directions.
  • All animations are a work in progress

Hookshot - New Skill

  • Alternative fire skill is now a Hookshot!
  • Hold the button to freeze time and aim.
  • After grabbing a hookable enemy (only probes), you can throw them back at the enemies, exploding the initial probe.
  • Each probe has its own Death Explosion. I wonder what the Blue Probe effect is.

Upgrades rework

  • Give Jester a break! Now the upgrades are purchased by interacting with the Vending Machines.
  • New Upgrade Available: Health.
  • Upgrades are more powerful!
  • Progressive Costs on Upgrades.
  • Resources are now displayed on the screen at all times.

Wave Progression Rework

  • We've reworked the wave progression:
    • There’s a constant wave of probes, which get more intense the longer the player is alive.
    • At specific times, waves of powerful enemies are spawned. Kill them fast or be overwhelmed!

Main Weapon - Sword Changes

  • Sword is now the only weapon available. Don’t worry, Axe will be back in the future.
  • Reworked timings and animations, improving the game pace.

FREEZE! We got a New Enemy!

Ice probe! Be careful of their ranged attacks and explosions, might not be as chill as it sounds.



We made a new tutorial for you to play:

  1. The objective is the game as before: survive and kill the enemies.
  2. The elders still require your attention.
  3. Fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee!
  4. Keep chopping down probes to keep defeat at bay!
  5. Now you have 3 dodges in a row, but only the first one spawns a trap.
  6. The new kid on the block! 'Drum rolls' The fishing ro…Ops! The Gravity Grapple!
