Vikings!

Update 0.7.0 is here, and it's one of our biggest updates yet. This patch focuses on skills, bringing a complete overhaul to character progression, new weapons, daily runs, fresh cosmetics, and plenty of quality-of-life improvements across the game.

Let's dive in 👇

Watch on YouTube

Skill Tree Overhaul 🌳

Each of Odinfall's 8 playable characters has received brand-new unique skills as part of a complete skill tree overhaul.

We've also made stat adjustments across all characters to better support their new progression paths, giving each hero more distinct strengths and playstyles.

There's a lot to experiment with; can't wait to see what builds you come up with!

Level Cap Increased 📈

With the new progression system comes a higher level cap!

Maximum level increased from 15 to 30
Existing save files will keep their experience
This means some players may already find themselves above level 15 when loading an older save

More levels means more skills, more builds, and more ways to become ridiculously overpowered.

Daily Runs Are Here 🏆

Daily Runs have officially arrived!

Compete on a shared seed, test your skills against other players, and see how far you can push your build under the same conditions.

They should work much like they did on the Experimental branch, but with significantly fewer bugs.

New Unlockable Skins 🎨

We've added 2 brand-new skins, both waiting to be discovered somewhere in Act 2.

Happy hunting 👀

New Weapons 🏹

Proton Bow

A new energy-powered weapon that uses the same charge mechanic as the War Hammers.

Charge it up and unleash powerful shots when the moment is right.

Air Cannon

Fire a giant ball of compressed air that explodes on impact, sending enemies flying and causing plenty of chaos.

Polish & Improvements ✨

This update also includes a whole collection of smaller improvements:

Lifesteal mod reworked with new visuals and proper damage tracking

Teleporter mod now has clearer visuals to show its range and effects

New doors for shop and boss floors

New Act 2 boss intro animation

Homebase visual improvements and polish
Added visual help for the selling altar
The Forge no longer consumes your weapon when changing your starter weapon
Updated credits music in the main menu

Bug Fixes & Stability 🐞

We've fixed a number of issues, including:

Shop items no longer cost gold after they've been destroyed
Hilda's Seedlings now correctly take damage when hit
Fixed an issue where The Forge wasn't updating starter weapons properly

Crash Fixes

We're constantly working to improve Odinfall's stability and performance.

If you encounter any crashes or stability issues, please let us know on the Steam Forums or our Discord server. That's where we're most likely to see your reports and get them fixed quickly.

Roadmap

That's everything for 0.7.0!

This update lays the groundwork for even more build variety and character customization, and we're excited to see what combinations you discover with the new skill trees.

As always, thank you for supporting Odinfall in Early Access and helping us shape the game through your feedback.

See you in the apocalypse,

– The Odinfall Team

Patch Notes 0.7.0

Theme: Skills

GENERAL

New and unique skills for all 8 characters with our overhaul to the skilltree. This also comes with some stat adjustments to all characters.
Max level is now 30 instead of 15 (Your Exp ammount will stay the same and might therefore you might be a higher level than 15 when starting on an old save).
Daily runs are now available. Should work the same as on experimental but with less bugs.
2 new skins both unlocked in act 2.

Smaller changes

Lifesteal mod reworked. Now actually stores damage and shows it with new visuals.
Added visuals to the teleporter mod to more clearly show the range and what it does.
New doors when going to a shop or boss floor.
New Act 2 boss intro animation
Visual changes to homebase. Mostly polishing.
Visual help for selling altar
The Forge no longer consumes your weapon.
Changed music when opening credits in main menu

WEAPONS

Proton Bow

A new fun type of weapon. Uses the same charge mechanic that warhammers have.

Air Cannon

Shoots a big ball of air that explodes.

BUGFIXES

Fixed an issue where shop items still cost gold even if they got killed.
Fixed an issue where Hilda seedlings wouldn't take damage even if they got hit.
Fixed an issue where the forge did not change your starter weapon.

Crashes

We are constantly working on improving the game to make it more smooth and accessible to more people. If you get a crash of any kind then please tell us on either steam forums or Discord. That's where we check most often.

Dev Update

Hello, Vikings!

We wanted to give you all an update directly from the development team, and we want to be open and honest with you all about what's been going on behind the scenes alongside our plans for the future of ODINFALL.

Over the last couple of months there's been some structural changes in the studio, specifically in terms of how many of us are able to work on ODINFALL full-time and some of the team deciding to move on to other opportunities. We understand the frustrations coming from those who have been trying to reach out to us, and have received little response. We want to assure you all that we have been reading your feedback, and we are spending a lot of our time to ensure the game's quality improves, however we understand that you may feel you've been left in the dark.

After many internal discussions, we've realized that we think our best option going forward (at least as of now) is to communicate with you all via a shared studio account and our goal is to be more transparent with our community and to answer any questions or feedback you have. We may not be able to answer everything as consistently as we may like, since making the best game possible for you all is our number 1 priority, but we'll try our best to dedicate time every so often where we will focus on your feedback and answering your questions. This might look something like a weekly or biweekly update.

Thank you for sticking with us. It can not be understated how much your support helps us during this process, and know that it's not taken for granted in our team.

On brighter news, here are some of the things we've been working on lately:

Daily run

We’re excited to introduce our new daily challenges! For every challenge the game will randomize a character, starter weapon, run modifier, act and seed. All of these will be the same for everyone playing on that day. Every enemy you kill will reward you with a set amount of points depending on their strength. Each day you will compete against other players for the top spot on the leader board and earn in-game crowns. However, beware of spoilers since acts and characters you haven’t unlocked yet can appear.

You can try out Daily Runs RIGHT NOW on the experimental branch. (You can easily swap over to the experimental branch by going into the game settings in Odinfall).

It’s tons of fun so we wanted to release it as soon as possible so you can dive in and try it out right away. Please keep in mind while using the experimental branch, that things might change drastically as we continue to develop the game for its 1.0 launch. If you have any feedback for this mode please make sure to send it over and we’ll take it into consideration before implementing it into the main stable branch.

A quick note is that your save file is different on the experimental branch. This means that you may have to unlock everything from the beginning again. But don't worry, if you swap back to the default version all your progress will be there safely waiting for you! The crowns you earn will also stay in the experimental branch, so that everyone will be on an even playing field once it is fully released.

New weapons

For the past few months, the team has been cooking up a whole lot of different weapon ideas. One of our favorites from the latest patch, 0.6.6, is the Trident. This is a weapon that you use by throwing the whole thing instead of just stabbing like a normal melee weapon. It took a lot of time and refinement to get right but we really like the end results and hopefully you will like it as well. Not every patch will have a weapon of this caliber and while we can't share any specifics right now, you better believe we've got a bunch of weapons to look forward to.

Visual updates

While not in the game yet, we’re currently working on polishing the intro for the game by both making the images bigger and adding animations to them. We’re also adding new NPCs for the shopkeeper areas. You might have already noticed some new friendly faces at the forging station, and you can look forward to seeing more in the future.

Thank you again for your support (and for reading this very long post).
Expect our next post to be in a week or so, we'll talk about any feedback you send, answer your questions and share some more info on what we’re working on.

From the dev team at Ember Paw

Vikings!

Update 0.6.6 is live, and it’s all about unique projectiles, risky new builds, and weapons that don’t always behave the way you expect them to.

Let’s jump in 👇

New & Updated Weapons

Nuclear Pistol

The classic pistol… but significantly less safe.

Nuclear Sword

Prefer getting up close? The Nuclear Sword brings the same radioactive energy into melee combat!

Trident

A powerful thrown weapon with a twist.

Throw the Trident and it actually leaves your inventory, meaning you’ll need to go pick it back up before using it again. High damage, high commitment (and occasionally awkward if you miss)

New & Updated Mods

Introducing the new Golden Bullet weapon mod that massively increases your damage, BUT there’s a catch:

Your weapons now consume gold instead of ammo
However enemies will drop more gold to offset this

Risky economy builds, greedy playstyles, and very expensive victories await.

We’ve also added pickup range interaction to the Teleporter mod, making those wild projectile setups a little smoother to use.

ANDD we buffed radioactive puddles spawned by players (they now deal 10 damage to enemies instead of just 1)

New Enemies: The Ravens

Two mysterious new birds have entered Act 3…

Raven

Found in an early Act 3 node, bringing strange new pressure to your runs.

White Raven

Appears later in Act 3 and proves even more troublesome.

Yes, they are weird. No, they will not be friendly.

Bug Fixes & More

Fixed an issue where the entrance to Jotunheim did not light up correctly during the storm.

Fixed a bug where the prefix glow was offset on weapons when picking up a mod.
Changed the location of the Cryo chamber that spawns in shops to be more central

Roadmap

That’s everything for 0.6.6!

Experiment with Golden Bullet builds, try not to lose your Trident forever, and let us know what ridiculous combinations you discover.

As always, thanks for playing Odinfall in Early Access, and we’ll see you in the apocalypse

Patch Notes: 0.6.6

Theme: Unique Projectiles

GENERAL

Changed Location of the Cryo chamber that spawns in shops to now be more in the middle

WEAPONS

Nuclear Pistol

Pistol with the nuclear mod attached

Nuclear Sword

Sword with the nuclear mod attached

Trident

A strong weapon you throw and it leaves your inventory, needing to pick it up again to use.

Piece of Cactus weapon now has a withering effect if left alone for long enough

MODS

Golden bullet

Will make your weapons hit way harder at the expense of using your gold instead of ammo. Also makes enemies drop more gold.

Added pickuprange to teleporter.

Buffed the Radioactive puddle spawned by players now deal 10 dmg instead of 1 to enemies

ENEMIES

Raven

A weird bird that can be found in an early act 3 node

White Raven

Another weird bird that shows up in a later act 3 node

BUGFIXES

Fixed a small bug where the entrance to Jotunheim did not light up when in the storm.

Fixed a bug where the prefix glow was offset on weapons when picking up a mod.

Odinfall Update 0.6.5 – Hammers, Giants & The Forge

Vikings! Update 0.6.5 is now live! This one’s all about going BIG . From towering new enemies to massive melee weapons, and a brand new way to customise your starting loadout . Let’s break it down 👇 New Feature: The Forge Say hello to The Forge , now found in the shop area and r

Vikings! Update 0.6.5 is now live!

This one’s all about going BIG. From towering new enemies to massive melee weapons, and a brand new way to customise your starting loadout.

Let’s break it down 👇

New Feature: The Forge

Say hello to The Forge, now found in the shop area and run by gunsmiths Bock and Baatri.

Here’s how it works:

Drop a Tier 1 weapon onto the anvil
The Forge destroys it
That weapon becomes your new starter weapon for all future runs

Want to go back to the trusty pistol? There’s an option back at home base to reset your starting loadout.

This gives you more long-term control over your runs and lets you tailor your starting playstyle exactly how you like it.

New Weapons: Bring the Bonk

War Hammer
A charged melee weapon that lets you wind up and slam the ground for devastating effect.

Heavy War Hammer
A bigger, meaner version of the War Hammer. Slower, heavier, and built for players who believe every problem can be solved with one very large bonk.

Also, to keep things balanced with The Forge:

Tier 1 explosive weapons have been moved to Tier 2, as they were a little too op to have as starting weapons.

New Enemies: Giants Have Entered the Chat

Frost Giant
Found lurking in a secret area in Act 1, this towering enemy hits hard and won’t go down without a fight.

Forest Giant
Spotted somewhere in Act 2, bringing big damage and big pressure to your runs.

Choose your positioning wisely… or get flattened.

Roadmap

That’s the rundown for 0.6.5!

Try out the Forge, swing some absurdly large hammers, and see how long you last against the Giants.

As always, thank you for playing Odinfall in Early Access, and let us know what you think!

See you in the apocalypse,
– The Odinfall Team
