The 3rd Anniversary Major Update For Retro Abyss Is Coming On Friday, October 3th !

Here’s what to expect in this update:

  • A completely overhauled New Game Plus system

  • New attack patterns for all bosses (including the final boss) in NORMAL and HARD difficulty

  • "Candy of Cooldown" – reduce cooldown times by up to 95%

  • "Ultimate Skill Upgrade" – take your ultimate skill to the next level

  • "Treasure Upgrade" – now reworked to apply to all classes

  • Faster progression through 3 new quest types

  • Perfect balance tuning to highlight each class’s strengths and synergies

  • Boss Time attack system and restoration of easter eggs

  • Complete removal of first-person narration and dialogue windows during gameplay

  • A deeper and more coherent metafiction storyline

  • Enhanced game support: saturation adjustment, reset options, gamepad aiming fixes, and more

If time permits, I also plan to post some behind-the-scenes / developer notes and cut story content that wasn’t included in the main game !

In Addition, 3 New Games Are Currently In Development !

  • Wingless Hero - An experimental 2D action platformer with procedurally generated levels, focusing on chaining jumps and attacks.

  • Astro Invaders - A 3d shoot em up game built around minimal controls and a boss fight focused structure.

Both titles are already 100% complete and planned for release within the year.
Each game emphasizes creative mechanics and simple fun, with stories revealed after clearing the game.

Also in development is - New Super Bird & Adventure a project that brings together all the experience gained from developing Retro Abyss and past titles.

Please look forward to the major update on October 3rd, as well as the upcoming new games !
