ENTER, CRUPELLARIUS! Closed beta version 0.5.1

Introducing the Crupellarius, a heavy armoured gladiator wielding his Gladius and Scutum.


Thank you for all your valuable feedback, I've had a blast so far in the beta!
I'm aware most of you are trying to beat the "normal mode" before attempting the Endless mode, but be sure to try it soon! I still need more entries for additional work on the online leaderboards.


Patch notes
  • Weapon challenges should no longer display the wrong weapon - streamlined the process as well.
  • Better indication of where you can equip unlocked helmets.
  • Title screen-controls are now shown on the title screen.
  • Enemies roll direction corrected.
  • The player's arms are now correctly displayed when disarmed with a Falx.
  • The Falx is now on top of player when rising from the title screen animation.
  • Enemies no longer attacks repeatedly if the player is dead near a wall.
  • The murmillo no longer gets hit instantly when he disarms the player.
  • The murmillo "block-when-hit" behavior is removed and transferred to the Crupellarius.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

See you in the arena!
