The Wait of the World Update



[h3]MACHINES, WE KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING.

...YET... SO HAS HE.

You think you're ready? That's cute.

[h3]Why not relax and also take in new Secret Level 5-S while you're here?[/h3]



Our decidedly most chill secret level to date.



Because something tells us you're going to need it.

[h3]This update also contains Radiant Enemies:[/h3]

They can be tested in Sandbox Mode currently and will eventually be used in the Cyber Grind and upcoming Encore levels with alternate enemy placements...

[h3]As well as the S.R.S Cannon (Green Rocket Launcher Variation)[/h3]

Sam would be proud.

[h3]And... The Developer Museum.[/h3]



Created entirely by (paid) ULTRAKILL community developer Vvizard, this massive structure houses many halls, many balls, a working movie theater, an aquarium... and maybe even some secrets.



It was designed and built as a testament to ALL of the talented people who have contributed work to ULTRAKILL over the years, and we hope you enjoy exploring it much more than a simple credits screen.



But enough about that....

[h3]REMEMBER:[/h3]

STAY VIGILANT

And most importantly

We will soon be diving head first into:
