Today, we are releasing Vampire Crawlers, a new spin-off set in the Vampire Survivors universe.
It takes the familiar chaos of Vampire Survivors and turns it into a casual, turn-based, card-driven BLOBBER with roguelite elements.
We’ve talked before about wanting to take some of the accidental core pillars of Vampire Survivors and apply them to other genres: accessibility, immediacy, affordability, replayability, lightheartedness, and the usual amount of flashy nonsense. Vampire Crawlers is the first attempt at that.
Crawl through dungeons, build busted decks, master the TurboTurn™, and try to keep the run going long enough to pretend it was all planned. You can watch the launch trailer below.
(In other news, God appears briefly and remains unhelpful.)
Vampire Crawlers
The full game includes everything from the demo, plus more content, more fixes, and more improvements across the board. The game is built around:
TurboTurn™ combat: Turn-based combat without the wait. Queue your moves instantly and let the game resolve them at full speed.
The Combo: cards are played in ascending mana order, and each step multiplies the next card’s effect
Wild cards that let you extend the stack and push combos further
Deckbuilding through progression: level up to gain new cards, find power-ups, chase evolutions, and customize your runs
Character cards and summoned survivors that add more effects and help create larger cascades
Dungeon exploration with treasures, floor progression, and interactive points of interest
A pace you choose yourself: take your time and be tactical, or play turns as fast as you humanly can
The full version also launches with the fixes and improvements made after the demo feedback period, and we are planning to keep the demo available as well.
So all of us at poncle and Nosebleed Interactive would like to say thank you to everyone who played the demo, reported bugs, shared feedback, and generally tried to break things. That was genuinely useful.
