Hello! Today's 20XX patch... wait! No! Not that. Not today. Old habits die hard.
Today, we're excited to reveal what the team at Batterystaple has been working hard on since we finished our full-time work on 20XX. A thousand years go by in an instant, and here we are: the year 30XX.
30XX is a full-fledged sequel to 20XX in with a brand new art style, courtesy of the masterful Glauber Kotaki (animator of Rogue Legacy, Duelyst, Chasm, and more). Some big highlights along with the visual overhaul:
- 8 brand new level themes (no more sharing between bosses!), each with their own visual aesthetic, radical tunes, and fearsome Guardian to be overcome.. if you can!
- Distinct movesets for our heroes - Ace has had hundreds of years to study techniques beyond his comprehension in 20XX, and is ready to adapt to anything!
- Radical new metagame progression that puts the game's challenges squarely in your hands, however you see fit!
- So, so much more that we're excited to share in the coming weeks and months!
We won't be spamming 20XX's announcements too regularly, so here are a few great ways to keep tabs on the game while we're making it:
- Sign up for our mailing list! You'll get the latest news on development in a casual, "hey bud here's what I'm working on!" kind of style.
- Join the Discord server!
- Follow the team on Twitter!
- Of course, wishlist 30XX! With every wishlist, we grow stronger. It really helps!
- Keep being amazing and tell your friends - we're seeing a fantastic reaction to the game already!
If you bought 20XX yesterday or if you've been here since 2014, thank you so, so much for the support - it's insane to us that we get to even consider making another game, and the fact that we've assembled the amazing team we've got for 30XX still has me in disbelief.
Cheers
CK
