    Cyberpunk City, New Round Mods & More!

    Heyo! This version gives Skillshot City a new look! The map is darker, clearly set at night time now, and all the vibrant city lights shine brighter. There are new cyberpunk looks to the buildings, more grit and cracks on the floor, bloody footprints when you walk through a dead

    Heyo, Main thing this version is adding new dedicated servers in Singapore, replacing the old low powered ones in Aus. There are more players here and it's actually pretty close to Europeans too. Enjoy! bencelot ---- Moved the AU servers to Singapore (there are more players in SE

    CYBERPUNK CITY

    Eyooo! As SSC slowly prepares for a full release, it needs a visual touchup. In future versions I'll be updating the main menu, but this version makes the map itself a lot more colourful, with plenty of neon lights everywhere. You might also notice there's some new menu music! Al

    Skill Balancing & Making Match Placement Matter

    Heyo, just a medium sized balance and gameplay patch. Some highlights for this version are: - You can see a timer next to your wanted level letting you know when you can next gain a star. - Account XP at the end of the match is now based on your placement (Trophies x 1000) instea

    SIMPLE REROLLS & SKILL REWORKS

    Heyooo This patch makes rerolling simpler. It is now free to reroll instead of costing $1000. It felt kinda bad to spend $1000 and then sometimes see 2 options that were even worse. Now it's free to reroll. To compensate, you get 1 reroll instead of 2. Random skills mode gets 2 r

    TROPHY BUFF

    Heyo! As there are now multiple Skill Slayer ranks (including the new Skill Slayer Elite rank at 12000 rating), I've increased the rewards you get for winning a game against a bunch of tough opponents. It's now possible to in theory get 15 trophies for winning a stacked solo game

    ADDED DUOS MODE!

    Heyo, a few days ago I ran an in-game poll asking what mode people would most like to see. Duos, Trios, or 4 person Squads. People mostly voted for Duos mode, so now it exists! Trios mode also remains, as does Solos of course. Otherwise, this version is quite small, just some bal

    MIRROR IMAGE REWORKED

    Hey all! New ranked season starts this month with a new algorithm. It's faster than last month, so you should be able to grind up to your true average sooner. The way it works now is that after each match, the game will slightly shift you towards Trophies*1000. So if you earn 8 t

    New Slot Machines, Improved Ranking Algorithm & Round Modifier Power Creep!

    SLOT MACHINES Gambling is fun! (or might get you killed) This version adds a new special item that appears at vendors called Slot Machines. These let you buy powerful but TEMPORARY buffs for cash. Only some vendors sell them, and they sell for random prices too, so shop around an

    3 Months of Polish From 1000s of New Players!

    3 MONTHS OF POLISH I need to post here more often! It's been 3 months since the last Steam page announcement, and in that time I've released over 50 updates to the game. The in-game changelog shows all of this, but not this Steam page itself. So it's time to make an announcement,

    BALANCE & POLISH

    Hey all! This version mostly includes a bunch of feedback from the Discord over the last 2 weeks. Have fun! bencelot ---- - Added soft duplicate protection to bias away from dropping DNA on existing legendary skills - The 6th daily challenge is easier to complete (requiring 75% a

    BALANCE CHANGES

    Hey all! This version introduces a new semi-tutorial mode. In the singleplayer tab you can now play vs bots, and the game will slow down time when you hold CTRL, making it much easier to read without getting shot at. Muting players now also acts as semi "report player" button. Pe

    Stronger Common Syringe Mutations!

    Hey all! This version buffs common syringe mutations, to reduce the relative power gap between commons and legendaries. Previously, common skills had mutations which were only 25% as strong as legendary skills. For example, Smoke Bomb would drop 1/2/3/4 med kits (1 = common, 2 =

    The Syringe Gambit

    Are you feeling.. risky? This version adds a fun new challenge that you can buy from vendors. It's called the "Syringe Gambit". It costs $20,000 and will give you +1 free syringe, but only if you get 3 kills in a row without dying. If you can pull it off, it's worth it. But if yo

    INSTANT RANKED REWARDS

    Heyo! You now get rewards in ranked mode AS YOU EARN THEN, instead of having to wait till the end of the month. This is kind of obvious now in hindsight. This is especially good for new players, as there is now a reliable way to grind ACID and Uranium immediately. No waiting for

    Skill Balancing & Smarter Servers!

    SMARTER SERVERS With more players comes more server flexibility! The marketing on youtube and tiktok is going well and the game has hit new peak player counts for the last 3 weekends in a row. As a result I've needed to create more servers, and this gives us more choices! The aut

    New Cosmetics System: Premium Modifiers!

    Hey all! This patch introduces a new cosmetic progression system for late game players - Premium Modifiers. Once you reach level 100, you can spend Enriched Shards in the shop to buy a new flask called the Premium Modifer Flask. Like all flasks, these give DNA, which means you ca
