that's right! our 6th playable fighter, ithaca the hunter, has released! we're still working on a trailer for him, but i figured there's no reason our players can't enjoy him before advertising his release to a wider audience. ithaca has a unique shotgun mechanic that may be difficult to master. you have two shells, and many of your attacks will use this ammo. all of these attacks are quite pow…
# BALANCE PATCH 1.8.1 # ## PALETTES ## added extra colors to everyone to match the amount sarissae has. i do plan on making more and improving them again in the future. just wanted to even the playing field! ## EUREKA ## this son of a witch simply refuses to not be overpowered. HOWEVER, i still don't believe in drastic changes, and to be honest, eureka feels very close to the ideal version of t…
NEW CHARACTER OUT NOW! PATCH 1.8.0 SARISSAE, THE SPEAR our 5th playable character has been added to the roster! this is by far the most complicated character i've ever worked on, across both of my platfighters. she features two unique movesets and multiple ways to swap back and forth between them. balancing her is an ongoing challenge, but i'd rather get her in the community's hands and let you…
PATCH NOTES NOTE: if you have modded stages, this update may cause them to not work properly. remove stage mods if you are experiencing crashes. (they should still be usable, the way to do it might just be a little different) this patch addes online team battles, but mainly aims to fix crashes and bugs. sarissae will still be releasing this month, i just figured it was better to update the rest…
5th character, QOL changes, online teams, and a workshop update SARISSAE, THE SPEAR i will get right to the part people will probably care about the most. sarissae, our 5th playable character will be available this month. i will NOT give a release date this month, they will just be out one day, and a trailer along with them. no more release dates lol btw it is pronounced s-air-iss-aye. if you d…
hi everyone! pluto here, just wanted to give a brief update before the holidays on what we're working on behind the scenes, as well as provide a very small patch for CPU difficulty. enjoy! ## PATCH 1.6.3, EASIER CPU SETTINGS ## this is a quick patch to include a difficulty setting for CPU's. you can now select easy or hard after adding them to your match. the "easy" CPU setting should provide a…
this is a quick patch to include a difficulty setting for CPU's. you can now select easy or hard after adding them to your match. the "easy" CPU setting should provide a nicer training method for newer players. the "hard" CPU's are the same ones that were already implemented in the game. this was cooked up pretty quickly just to give new players a way to practice without needing to go online an…
a quick patch to fix a few crashes and one gameplay error with eureka. we are working on a larger balance patch that puts characters more in line with the intended vision after the previous knockdown changes. i will be reaching out to a few players to help with this balance patch as well. ## BUGS ## - fixed multiple eureka CPU crashes ## EUREKA ## - fixed an issue where eureka could not perform…
# PATCH 1.6.1 (restart steam if you don't see the update)# ## GAMEPLAY ## - reeling speed threshold reduced slightly. this small change has a big impact on combos, specifically in later percents. (if this change is a little too crazy, i will release another patch to tighten it up. it's an easy thing to change, but it effects a TON of gameplay, so it's hard to test for every edge case). because…
# PATCH 1.6.0 (restart steam if you don't see the update or your game is still on 1.5.0) # ## CPU AI ## - cpu ai has been improved significantly. the cpu's now try to utilize the combo system more, and try to play certain playstyles depending on the character. this implementation also allows us to easily create difficulty settings for the cpu's, from extremely easy to impossibly hard. this diff…
hello players! we're currently aware of a bug involving steam invites that crashes the game, and are working on a fix. for now, when you create a lobby, set it to "public" and join your friends using the lobby code. we're hoping to resolve this issue within a day or two. the upcoming patch will include a few more online improvements to connections and stability as well. our next patch will also…
# PATCH 1.5.0: ONLINE REWORK COMPLETE # ## RESTART STEAM TO ENSURE THE UPDATE. IF YOU WERE PLAYING ON THE BETA BRANCH, PLEASE SWITCH BACK TO THE MAIN BRANCH TO GET EVERONY ON THE SAME VERSION! ## ## ONLINE UPDATES ## - players who were unable to connect to our servers should now be able to play online matches - players in the same house or on the same internet connection should now be able to p…
# SMALL UPDATE FOR BOTH VERSIONS # ## PLEASE NOTE THERE IS NO NOTIFICATION TO UPDATE THE GAME TO PLAY ONLINE IN THE BETA. RESTART STEAM TO ENSURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF THE ONLINE BETA INSTALLED ## if there are no more major crashes after today, we plan on merging the online beta into the official version of the game this week! our focus will be shifting to workshop soon. ## MAIN VERSIO…
our online rework using steam servers is finally available to test! we plan on fixing any issues this weekend and releasing the proper official update sometime next week. to access the beta: right click the game in your library > properties > betas > type "wifiwarriors" NOTE: SET YOUR INPUT DELAY BACK UP TO 2 IF YOU EXPERIENCE MAJOR LAG SPIKES. WE HAVE IT SET TO ZERO BY DEFAULT IN THE BETA, BUT…
# PATCH 1.2.1, RESTART STEAM IF YOU DON'T SEE THE UPDATE # this patch mainly fixes major bugs and crashes related to ninja. an actual balance patch will be released next week after gathering more info and player feedback. ## STAMINA MODE ISSUE ## - we are aware of an issue in stamina mode that desyncs the game and crashes when a player dies. it is mostly relating to projectiles giving 2 differe…
NINJA IS OUT! after a few quick delays, ninja has joined the roster as our 4th playable character. with his unique ability to cancel tilts and aerials straight into specials, his combo game really opens up and allows for maximum creativity! we hope you enjoy him, and can't wait to add even more! (there are a few visual and audio bugs with the character, and we've found some hurtboxes to be disj…
# BALANCE PATCH 1.1.1, RESTART STEAM IF YOU DON'T SEE THE UPDATE # ## GAMEPLAY ## ### mostly buffing defensive options a little bit to mitigate certain tech chases and zero to deaths ### - PARRY: vfx only comes out once you enter your invincibility, preventing it from looking like you should have successfully parried. (the vfx used to happen frame 1 due to a bug) - BURST: invincibility increase…
i really didn't want to have to do this, and originally thought silksong wouldn't effect AFQM numbers too heavily, but behind the scenes we're seeing quite a big difference. so in order to maximize ninja's potential player-pull, we're going to release him sometime after this weekend. i won't give a hard date, but releasing during silksong weekend is basically just gutting your potential growth…
NINJA RELEASES SEPTEMBER 5th + NETWORK PROGRESS REPORT NINJA i will get the bad news out of the way early which is that i just don't think i'm going to have ninja ready by tomorrow/august. too many outside factors in life interfered and when you're the only one working on a character, that kind of thing can really slow you down. i think i could still technically finish him by tomorrow, but i go…
# NEW PATCH TO FIX SOME BUGS, AND ADDED A RESULTS SCREEN AFTER GAMES. RESTART STEAM FOR THE UPDATE # ## more gameplay balance updates AFTER the tournament. i will be focusing on buffing characters next patch :)) ## ## GAMEPLAY ## - added a results screen that shows the winner of the match. this is important before the tournament, because before, if a game went to time, there was no way to verif…
# NEW PATCH, NEW STAGES, TONS OF BALANCE CHANGES # # RESTART STEAM FOR THE UPDATE IF IT DOESN'T AUTO UPDATE # ## i would like to start this patch by saying most of the character changes are indeed nerfs, but i genuinely don't believe in completely gutting characters or what makes them unique/cool/fun/good. these nerfs just start aligning the characters with my original vision of who they were.…
## NEW PATCH, RESTART STEAM FOR THE UPDATE ## # BUGS # - ALT TAB BUG HAS BEEN SQUASHED. NO MORE CONTROLLER ISSUES ONLINE I HOPE # GAMEPLAY # - setting your stick to neutral during dash now idles your character - this changes the way dash dancing, and character movement overal, feels significantly. might be weird at first but gives you more responsiveness. (yes baby dashing is available but this…
hello everyone, pluto here from studio bidou! i just wanted to update you all on what we're actively working on. updates will roll out frequently this week, some large, some just minor tweaks or hotfixes. here's all you need to know! a quick disclaimer first, we just want to thank everyone for the overwhelming support and response to this game. we've reached 60,000 players and we're still in th…
we are aware of some players being unable to connect to quickplay and lobbies. this issue seems to mainly be caused by VPN's/firewalls/antivirus software not trusting the game because it's peer2peer. while this isn't a permanent solution, disabling these may fix the issue if your problem still persists, please be patient. i've got devs working on the connection issues and improving the servers,…
A FEW QUICK MATCHES launches August 5th, with ninja not far behind as free update later this August!
