Spaceflux started as a multiplayer arena shooter, but for the last 2 years, I focused on adding PvE, and now it's all finally coming together. I hope you enjoy this new Horde Mode as much as the multiplayer. See you in the next update~

Horde Mode Update

The long-awaited Spaceflux update is finally here! There's so much new stuff to cover that I made a Spaceflux Direct!

HORDE MODE

Introducing the new single player Horde Mode!


Stand your ground against wave after wave of head boys.
With 5 enemy types.


In all impossible spaces!
Compete for the global high score!
Each map-and-impossible-space combination has its own leaderboard, so there are lots of opportunities to get your name up there!

THE BACKROOMS

The Backrooms is a brand new map in Spaceflux! Get lost in an infinite labyrinth of abandoned office space.
You can even try it in Horde Mode.

NOW ON STEAM DECK


ONLINE PLAY

With this update, I really focused on improving the online experience. Online games run smoother now thanks to better netcode. And Quick Play makes it easier to get into a match.

Autoserver allows you to keep your server running 24/7.
This puts you in spectator mode and allows other players to fight each other while you host. Once it starts, you dont have to do anything and will automatically keep the matches coming.




Join our Discord to find homies to play with. It’s the easiest way to get a game going.

QUALITY OF LIFE

Fixed hundreds of bugs.
Added key bindings!


Made balance changes to the guns. They're now as balanced as they've ever been.

Thank you so much for sticking with me throughout Early Access, and I sincerely hope you enjoy this update!
