Next Fest is Here!

Hello Pilots,

Next Fest is here! And we're delighted to unveil the new demo for StarVaders where you will take your roguelike deckbuilding strategies and grid-based tactical thinking to a whole new level!

If this is your first time jumping into StarVaders, then please consider joining your fellow Pilots in our Discord Server!

Since our first demo was released, we have been grateful for the attention from big creators like NorthernLion and Aliensrock among many others, and we've added even more content for Next Fest.

Our Next Fest Demo includes:

  • Stinger Mech - Limited-time access to the first pilot of the Stinger Mech
  • New Difficulty - Take on CHALLENGER mode, a harder mode with encounter modifiers, powered up bosses, and more
  • All New Soundtrack - A total revamp of the StarVaders soundtrack by the incredibly talented Plasterbrain
  • Speedrunning Competition - Daily Seeded Speedruns with prizes up for grabs!
  • Next Fest Raffle - Complete Challenges throughout Next Fest and win 1 of 100 StarVaders keys - More details in our Raffle Steam Event and in the demo itself!
