Beat the Devil Out of It Update


Game development sometimes feels like following along a Bob Ross painting video; it seems easy enough, but once you get stuck in you realise there’s A LOT going on all at once and you’re on the verge of making a big mess.

While we all love a ‘happy accident’, it’s important to pause and take a second to review the progress you’ve made. To go back, clean up, and refine all that you’ve managed to accomplish already.

And that’s exactly what we’ve done for this update.

We’ve made immense headway with the game we’ve envisioned, but with all the great feedback we’ve received recently we thought it necessary to go back and really give everything we’ve worked so hard on the attention it deserves.

So here are the main changes for this update:

  • ACTUAL GARSHDARN MUSIC - There’s now a scrap yard of metal playing in your ears as you fight things!
  • Eating Mangled Meat gives you back a bit of your own mangled meat!
  • A lower number of health hearts because apparently an even 4 freaked you guys out??
  • Player movement is a lot more responsive, and you can roll out of attacks!
  • Hitting enemies actually damages them now!
  • Default Controller Button Layout is better!
  • We’ve changed all the fonts to Comic Sans for your reading pleasure. You’re welcome! :D

Please find us on any platform, and tell us about any critters you find in-game. Metavoidal is ever-evolving, and something was bound to slip through our play-testing cracks.

You can find us on Instagram, Twitter, and Discord. We’re a really chilled, and kind community that are here to vibe like Bob Ross. So come join us on this happy little journey!
