Beta 41 available

Roadmap

Hello Voiders! Beta 41 is here!

The Daily Run mode is now available!

This is a very anticipated update, as anticipated as it is something totally new for us, so let's cross fingers that our servers don't melt. :happyNV:

If you are not familiar with daily runs on other roguelite games, here's how this works:

  • Every day a new unique game is generated and shared between all players around the world (all enemies, levels, loot, etc. are the same for all players).
  • You have one single attempt per day to take the run and get ranked worldwide.
  • Every day the leaderboard are archived and reset.
  • Nosifone and I (the developers) are taking the runs :) you will be able to notice our presence in the rankings via a custom color.

We are very excited to see how the rankings will unfold. :happyNV:

Another important changes for MacOS & Linux: we update the underlying technology that powers NeuroVoider, it should be more stable and slightly faster, but it's still experimental, so stay alert.

As always, have an awesome weekend!
Cheers!

UPDATE: Beta 41.1 has been released to fix a crash with players having non-ASCII character in their nickname and scores being 95% even if the last boss has been beaten.

New

  • Daily run mode and online rankings (please mind that this is absent from the itch.io build, for now)

Changes

  • MacOS and Linux versions now uses Mono 4.4 (instead of 4.0.2), this should make them slighty faster and reliable
  • The game doesn't pause anymore if the window doesn't have the focus
  • Tunnels transparency has been improved to better see enemies and blinking lights indicating a tunnel have been made more visible
