The sun is burning hot, and so is the fury of the mighty beast invaded in his own home by puny humans. But even a being that perfect and powerful needs motivation to keep going. Of course, survival is one, and for the player that means acquiring the highest score possible, but what if there was something more? Something that gave you a sense of accomplishment… No, no, a sense of achievement!
We’re happy to report, that we’ve updated all the achievement graphics to give you even more reason to keep slaying the weaklings who think they can push you out of your lair.
Go on now, paint the walls with their blood, and listen to the sweet sounds of getting those achievements. Doesn’t get more satisfying than that.
Cathedral 3-D features some out-of-the-box gameplay that’s not immediately intuitive to everyone so we figured we can provide some tips to new monsters looking to get into massacring villagers and defending lairs. To that end, we have prepared a simple manual to explain the gameplay fundamentals and help you achieve your full potential and maximize the bloodshed. You can find the pdf HERE.
Happy hunting! Your Feardemic
Patch 2.1: Fixes, fixes, fixes
Hello, fearfolks!
Slaying puny humans won't end so quickly. They're still trying to destroy you, but we all know they're doomed as soon as they entered the Cathedral.
Without further ado, we're giving you the next patch with some fixes. Check out the patch notes below:
💥 Fixed player send out of arena after attack/collision with chest — https://steamcommunity.com/id/astaritus/recommended/1091590/ 💥 Fixed player/stairs collision issues — https://steamcommunity.com/id/astaritus/recommended/1091590/, https://steamcommunity.com/id/13101991/recommended/1091590/ 💥 Fixed issue with immediate input after launching “New Game”. 💥 Fixed specific collision issue: When you start the game, jump twice and hit “back” you are able to go through the window (unless it’s a secret by design, then forget about it) 💥 Fixed problem with enemies’ remains becoming invisible for certain camera angles; 💥 Button in pickup/activate screen prompt now correctly displays current key binding; 💥 Improved audio loading times, reducing startup time of the game.

Patch 2.0: The “Free to Play” Update!
Hello, Fearfolks and retro shooter enthusiasts!
As we have said, so has been done, the 2.0 update is here and Cathedral 3-D is going free to play! This patch took a lot of work and we’re very proud to present the changelog and get you up to date with all the new ways you can defend your Cathedral from these puny sacks of meat trying to chase you out of your domain.
CHANGELOG
[GAMEPLAY CHANGES]
We have redesigned the magic system, check out the new spells:
Teleport the chest to your hands!
Warp to the current location of the chest (super helpful when falling down!)
Invincibility, so you can really become unstoppable.
[ARENA CHANGES]
We redesigned the arena and added a large new area below. Go and explore!
Enemies now can teleport around the arena, beware!
We added new demonic altars that can protect the chest from enemy attacks. They also provide slow healing over time.
[IMPROVEMENTS]
Due to numerous gameplay changes, we introduced a new leaderboard. The old one is still available in read-only mode.
We have refreshed and improved the graphics of the arena.
[FIXES]
We implemented numerous small fixes and performance improvements.
Alright, that’s it, go on, tear some humans apart and get that high score! Did we mention that Cathedral 3-D is free to play now? Well, it is!
Don’t forget to leave your feedback and thoughts in the comments below because we really appreciate hearing from you guys.
See you next time, here or on Chapel 3-D! ;)
New teaser and a sign of things to come!
Cathedral 3-D has been out for a while but it’s not been dead in the slightest. A lot of work goes on behind the scenes, and you can see the project is alive by the big patches we’ve been able to put out with the help of the community feedback. That is one of the reasons why we thought it appropriate to release a new teaser for Cathedral (and update the Steam capsules). Another reason? Feardemic’s Fear Fest, where we’ll show you… something new. Intrigued? Wait till you watch this new teaser and get PUMPED for what’s to come at Fear Fest.
