Road to v1.0: Day 12

We have a small update today with a new skin for Poppea Pecorina! Simple and clean!

In v1.0 the early game of the Dairy Plant will be more forgiving, as the difficulty got ramped up mostly to follow up on the community's requests back then, but ultimately it ended up being too much for most players. With all the options to add optional difficulty in v1.0, there is no need to have an overly stern Dairy Plant anymore.

Also here's the Side B theme for the Dairy Plant:

Vampire Survivors 1.0 has weaponised fireworks

Never aim fireworks at others, unless the others are hordes of monsters and you're deep in a Vampire Survivors run. Those fireworks that go off whenever you open a coffin will be weaponised in Vampire Survivors 1.0 when the bite-sized survival game emerges from Early Access this week.

Read the rest of the story...

Road to v1.0: Day 11

You know those pretty fireworks that pop when you open a coffin? Well, as per industry standard, we have entered a contract with the military and have now weaponised said fireworks, please enjoy!
(we have not entered a contract with the military)

New weapon Greatest Jubilee: has a chance to create light sources (brazier, candelabras etc.) when firing. Scales with all usual stats, but works best with Luck.

To unlock it all you have to do is go for one of the new achievements of v1.0, "See the final fireworks."

0.11.400 - Save Data changes

Rolling out a change to the save data location/system to avoid surprises on launch day for v1.0

- Disabled Steam AUTO-Cloud. Steam Cloud is now implemented in-game.
This is to avoid synchronization issues that were showing the wrong save file the first time the latest version was booted up. The Save Data path has now been finalised and it's in the default Steam userdata folder.
When booting up the game in the new version for the first time, you'll see a line of text letting you know that the save data is being migrated.
The old backup systems are still in place in case anything goes wrong.

- Little QOL: 5 items treasure chests become skippable if you've played the game too much ❤

Road to v1.0: Day 10

"What if we do Side B, but for sound effects?"
And so the accurately named Blast Processing option was implemented.

There's no need to unlock it, from the get go you'll be able to toggle the option to get access to a few different sounds and jingles when playing the game! I won't spoil all of them, here's a few examples:
