Patch 0.5.2

[p]Hi everyone,[/p][p][/p][p]Just pushed patch 0.5.2, which just has a few fixes:[/p]
  • [p]Hopefully fixes the issue where the game gets stuck on the loading screen forever. Please let me know in the comments if this is fixed for you or if you're still running into the issue. [/p]
  • [p]NOTE: if the above wasn't work, many users have reported that they could get things to work by closing the other programs running on their computer, including background apps (ie. web browser, OBS, Discord, etc). [/p]
  • [p]Fixes an issue that made sliding on slopes sometimes triggered this slide-stand-slide-stand jittering back and forth. [/p]
[p][/p][p]More patches are coming in the next few days, I just wanted to try and handle the most critical ones first![/p][p][/p][p]Thanks,[/p][p]Blargis[/p]

Demo playthrough Stream!

[p]Doing a stream for Next Fest! Hop in and watch me try to get Godkiller medals in all the levels! [/p]

Demo Update coming June 9th!

Hey Everyone!

Bloodthief is participating in Steam Next Fest on June 9, and to celebrate I'll be adding a new level and a new sword to the demo.

The new level is going to be a secret level that will require some secret hunting to find and unlock so you might want to spend some time in the next few weeks brushing up on some of the secret spots in the game 🙂

Besides the new content, there will also be a new devlog releasing that day and we'll also be doing a Speedrunning competition in the Discord server with prizes!

That's all for now, happy Bloodthieving!

Legacy Of Kain with parkour? Sure, go on then

Not actually a stealth FPS hybrid of Blood and Thief - although I'd pay good money for that - Bloodthief is closer to something like Ghostrunner but also, I think, much better. The Steam demo's opening levels are roughly as tricky and demanding as the cyberpunk parkour series but, perhaps to due to less concern with being stylish, the movement here feels a lot more caffeinated. You only have to look at the visuals to clock that Bloodthief isn't that sort of game that's precious about letting you do silly things with momentum.


Also you're a vampire, with a sword, exsanguinating armoured knights in a vaguely Germanic medieval town. Well, Vae my Victus. I do get very excited when anything reminds me, even a little, of Blood Omen: Legacy Of Kain. Here's a nice little video of the game in action. Warning: this trailer for the game Bloodthief has blood in it.
