Hello everyone, Gal Axis the project lead / developer of the game here!
As some of you know, I have just finished moving to Norway and will be staying there for 10 months as part of my bachelor studies. While this will not affect the state and goals of the project, the amount of updates and the development speed might drop somewhat. EndCycle VS has always been a passion project of mine, that I had the joy of being able to pursue professionally since we released it on Steam in Early Access.
Since release, the game has come incredibly far. With today's version of EndCycle VS having been almost entirely redesigned, the project has morphed, changed and grown so so much. I want to take a moment and thank you all for your support so far. Your kind steam reviews, discord messages and tweets have meant the world to me and the team. Seeing how much you all love our work has been shocking in the best kind of way to say the least. <3
Now let's get into the meat of things: If I had to say, the secret dev-version of the project is just about 95% complete! If you are not up-to-speed with all the new additions, I recommend you look through our twitter and check our most-recent posts for a recap of things that will be added with the next update! Here is a short roadmap of the things we will still be adding...
Next update: "Ultra"
- Unique Ultra Attacks for each of the characters
- New reworked roguelike-mode
- 2 new playable characters
- Full Steam Workshop integration
- Achievements on both Steam and Android
- 4 new attacks and 1 new style
- Tons of balancing changes and sprite reworks
And here are our planned features in the last few updates before we release the game in full capacity:
- Character-specific Taunts (Online + Offline)
- 3 new campaigns
- ~8 new attacks
- Capture the Flag gamemode
- ~3 additional characters
- Improved Netcode and online multiplayer systems
I hope you are looking forward to all of these new features! Now, one last thing I want to mention...
We started looking for a game publisher! In order to bring EndCycle VS to as many people as we can, we want to market the game in a much more professional scope than we have so far. We will ensure that the publisher we will partner up with will not affect our planned features, the monetization or availability of the game on Steam. The publisher will provide us with the necessary skills / reach to bring the game to players all around the world and will also help us with localizing it into different languages! Look forward to more info about that in the future.
I want to be as transparent as possible with you all, and in-case you have any questions about the project, I would be glad to answer them in our discord, on twitter or anywhere else!
Thank you again for your continued support, and thank you for playing our game.
