Minor update to Steam Deck functionality. When there are no additional connected devices for local multiplayer and you are at the player select screen, the game will now display an Xbox One A Button icon instead of a keyboard Enter icon for the default "sign in" message.
This is a small update with some more audio adjustments. · The master volume slider has been split into separate music and sound volume sliders. · The baseline volume of sound effects has been reduced to better match the old balance between music and sound (things shifted due to the music fidelity improvements in 1.8.8).
We've updated INVERSUS to the latest version of our game engine! This is the same tech that will be powering our upcoming game, Never's End . This update gets INVERSUS back into a state where it is easier to maintain and will help us test the new engine features before Never's End releases, but there are also some small updates to INVERSUS as a result. · INVERSUS no longer advertises keyboard a…
Hello everyone, we hope you've been having fun playing INVERSUS! Today we're here to finally announce the new game we've been working on for seven years, Never's End . Never's End is a turn-based tactical RPG set in a dark fantasy world that mixes Eastern and Western elements, with captivating, pixel-art like 3D graphics, a compelling story, and addictive gameplay. It will be available both on…
Version 1.7.8 is a very minor update. For players with the full game, this adds some improvements to audio quality on Windows 7. This update is also available for the demo version which hasn't been patched in a long while. It now has all the latest fixes, etc that have been added to the full game.
You might have noticed that the game just updated, but what did it do? Today’s update tackles a couple problems! Reduced False Positives During the Winter Sale, there was an unfortunate incident where the new Windows Defender database incorrectly flagged INVERSUS as a potential threat. Microsoft has since fixed the problem, but I wanted to reduce the chance of it happening again! The new versio…
There's a new build of the game! So what does it do? · Cloud saves are now properly working in the demo app (this was also preventing any save data from being stored by the demo). · Both the full game and demo support running with either DirectX 11 or DirectX 9. If you have an older video card and want to use DirectX 9, just right click INVERSUS in your steam library and select the appropriate…
INVERSUS now has a free demo on Steam! The demo supports local play against the computer and friends, while the full game is required to play online matches and view the leaderboards. · In Versus mode, you can unlock the first two maps and play with up to four players! Computer players can fight at the 2-star difficulty tier - perfect for learning the ropes. · In Arcade mode, you can fight for…
It's almost INVERSUS's birthday so I think we should celebrate with a new patch! · Thanks to Lyvo , INVERSUS just got a brand new song ! This is the first musical addition to the game since launch and I'm told he will also be making it available on Spotify, etc in the near future! · The graphics engine has been upgraded from DirectX 9 to DirectX 11 ! · This should help solve driver compatibilit…
Who likes bug fixes? I do! Today's update fixes a very rare networking crash that you've probably never encountered unless you put your wifi router in your microwave while downloading a full copy of the internet.
Today there is a small update to the game. There was an issue causing the game to fail to launch directly into exclusive full screen mode (in contrast to borderless fullscreen which most players use). It should now be back to working order!
There's a new update with a few (small) improvements! · Added support for V2 DualShock4 controllers. · Reduced rate at which skill (number that RP is based on) uncertainty grows due to inactivity. This means that you will lose less RP due to a loss when returning to the game after taking a hiatus. · Removed the bonus RP adjustment on the loser's end when there is a large upset. This means that…

All coordination happens on the INVERSUS Disco…
A small patch released to day that fixes a couple small bugs. · It was possible for the audio to get muffled after entering the options menu. This has been fixed. · The arcade map "Tiles" was rendering slightly off center. It is now very much centered.
Another small patch hits today and it's all about balancing arcade map unlocks! The required star counts for unlocking earlier maps have been reduced, but the later maps are still just as hard to get. This will add some more map variety for new players that are learning the ropes, but still keeps those final few maps as realms of the elite!
First off, a small patch just went live that tunes the vibration settings to get the different supported gamepads in better alignment with one another. Second, the October INVERSUS Community Tournament starts this Saturday! · Sign up on Challonge before Friday: · Coordinate your matches on Discord:
With everyone joining online for the free weekend this morning a recently introduced bug was found (oops!) that allowed players in public matchmaking to get into your private lobbies. That should be fixed now. There is a also a fix for a minor bug where going through a series of complicated steps involving the leaderboards menu and "play local game while waiting online" could cause the wrong le…

Last time we talked, I was working away on the 1.5 update. Then I started adding more content. Then I decided to add some more new features. I certainly wasn't done adding more unlocks. And then I went and gave the whole thing a big visual upgrade. Looking back at the current game and what I had been building, I realized that it had become this giant beast of an update and just bumping the vers…
Hold on - there's a new update and it's not the big 1.5 update? What gives?! Well, the upcoming 1.5 update has gotten even bigger (more on that in the near future) and I want to get some of the new additions tested out behind the scenes. That’s where this new build comes in! INVERSUS is now tracking skill in public versus battles and awarding (or deducting) Rank Points in the process. The goal…

In arcade mode, there has always been a bonus for landing consecutive shots. It is an important system if you are fighting for the high score, but player analysis was required to learn about it. This update adds the combo bonus to HUD! You can find it to the left of the arcade multiplier and I hope it helps you chase those scores! Additional updates: · The arcade multiplier display is larger an…
