  Patch 1.0.15 - Balancing

  This patch focuses on balancing, which primarily involves one design shift: all weapons should now be equally powerful! You should be able to complete all maps and difficulties using the default weapon. Some weapons may still be better in certain situations, but in general, the differences should not be game-breaking. Before this patch, some weapons were clearly stronger than others.Additionally, there have been numerous changes to enemy spawning and enemy stats, especially on the Frostfall and Graveyard maps. These areas should now feel more challenging and fair, without overwhelming you with bullets. 💀Patchnotes 1.0.15BALANCINGreduced damage of all weapons to be approximately on par with the default weapon.

  Patch 1.0.14 - Bug Fixes & Steamdeck Support

  Here is the new patch that fixes some issues that were gathered from bug reports and player feedback from Discord and the Steam forums. ːsteamhappyːAlso, I'm happy to say that Steam has reviewed the Steam Deck compatibility and labeled it as Playable. The only point that prevents a Fully Playable label right now is some text that’s too small somewhere, but that'll be fixed as soon as I find that little ****. ːsteammockingːNext patch will focus on balancing issues and everything else that still needs fixing.Patchnotes 1.0.14fixed item select screen from chests still showing inventory button when item was skipped beforefixed xp bar not updating on higher levels after level restart fixed that unlocked perks were still available after game reset.

  SLYDERS releases on November 24! 🥳

  Slyders is Almost Here! ːsteamhappyːOn November 24, you’ll finally be able to leave the dusty desert of the Badlands map from the demo and jump into the entirely new maps of the release version. Each map features a completely unique biome, with its own enemies, bosses, and challenges. You’ll also have access to lots of new weapons, perks, skills, items, and runes to unlock.Thank You to Our 10,000 Demo Players!Over 10,000 players have tried the demo and shared feedback on Discord, Steam forums, and Reddit. Thank you! When I first launched the demo in January 2024, it was in a very early state, and I wanted to see if there even was interest in Slyders. The feedback was great and since then, I’ve continuously updated it, added features, fixed bugs, and treated the demo much like an early access version.Now, the demo has served its purpose, and it’s time to say goodbye. The demo will go offline on November 10, but, of course, if you already have it in your library, you’ll still be able to play it.I can’t wait to see you in the release version! ːsteamhappyː- Kato
