VOIN enters Early Access on December 10th.

Lightnings,

The time has come. With more than 100,000 of you waiting, today, I’m happy to share that VOIN is ready to enter the Steam Early Access on December 10th.

The game already features most of the core systems and mechanics I envisioned, but there’s still so much more I want to explore and expand—both in terms of content and the depth of the experience.

As a solo developer working on VOIN, I face the challenge of bringing my complete vision to life. Since VOIN is a hack-and-slash game with a blend of other genres like roguelike, RPG and extraction, there’s endless potential for new loot, weapons, and inventive ways to slay enemies. However, the more layers I add to the gameplay, the trickier it becomes to balance everything without input from a dedicated community of players. That’s why Early Access is the perfect fit—it allows me to introduce new content steadily while gathering invaluable feedback from you.

My goal is to release the full version within a year, though the exact timeline might change based on the feedback from you, the players.

I plan to expand the game with additional levels to explore, more bosses and enemies to face, and fresh, creative ways to defeat them. Since my vision is to continually add new methods for slaying your foes, I also aim to enrich the story and deepen the lore of the world.

Naturally, I’ll strive to ensure the final version is as polished and engaging as possible.

Thank you so much for joining me on this journey.

Until then,
May the cleansing continue.

~Nikita.

New ARPG Voin deftly blends Doom and Dark Souls, with a demo out now

Voin is what I'm coining a 'boomer slasher.' The tense, dodge-infused combat and RPG leanings of Dark Souls combine with the quick-fire action of Doom, and out comes something entirely new. It's a refreshing take on some of the industry's most popular genres, and one I recommend you try for yourself. With a brand-new demo available now as a part of Steam Next Fest, this is an action-packed game you don't want to miss.

New Demo Patch #1 is out

For the Steam Next Fest where VOIN is present the demo has been updated with several improvements and fixes:

  • The tutorial has been simplified and streamlined, making it more coherent and faster to complete.
  • Corrupted items have been revamped. They no longer apply Weakness. Instead, their properties remain hidden until you cleanse them. Deckard Cain is now a bell.
  • IMPORTANT! :loudspeaker: We've fixed numerous bugs, including issues with key bindings. To do this, we had to rewrite all key-input logic. Unfortunately, this means old save files will no longer be compatible, and you'll need to start fresh. I understand this can be frustrating, and I promise that save resets will only happen again if absolutely necessary.


If you encounter any bugs or have feedback, please share them in the community section, thank you!
