NecroBouncer | Soundtrack
Greetings, club members!

It's been barely a few weeks ago since NecroBouncer was released. Today, we have great news to share with you!


The NecroBouncer soundtrack by Alex Yoder is now available on multiple streaming platforms for your listening pleasure outside of the club.

He would also like to share a few words on his work:

It was so much fun composing for NecroBouncer! It’s not every day you have an excuse to combine chiptune, EDM, and metal in a single project. I hope players have as much fun listening to it as I had writing it.



Here are the links to various platforms you can enjoy the NecroBouncer original soundtrack:

We hope you enjoy listening to the soundtrack outside the game as much as you liked it in the game and encourage more people to join the club:

NecroBouncer | Guidebook
Greetings, visitors and welcome to our establishment once again!

NecroBouncer was just released a week ago and today we'd like to share with you helpful information on how to stay alive in the club during your shift.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1786830/NecroBouncer/

We'll cover three floors of our bar, leaving the contents of the fourth one a bit of a secret for you to experience yourself. Each of the floors has its own set of enemies, which can be categorized as ranger, charger, heavy, and caster (from the 2nd floor onwards).

This will keep you on your toes and adapt to each attack your enemies use. While ranger, for example, might seem like an easier type of target to dispatch, you can be hit (and may I tell you it is not a pleasant feeling) by a caster or a heavy, so you also need to prioritize your targets accordingly.

Now to each of the Floors currently available.

1st Floor


First floor will consist of Pitchforks, Shovel Peasant and Blacksmith.

Pitchforks guys

[expand type="details"]They are rather straightforward - they throw pitchforks at you.
Albeit with a caveat - they won’t attack again until they pick them up. You can use it to get rid of them without extra danger to yourself.[/expand]



Shovel peasants

[expand type="details"]They will run towards the player and attack with a short jump that damages if NecroBouncer is caught in its path.[/expand]


Blacksmith

[expand type="details"]Compared to other Floor 1 enemies will have higher HP than others and will use an AOE attack whenever he gets close to the player, though the attack has a delay so you can try and avoid it.[/expand]

It is also important to note that Heavy enemies will also have blue HP bars, which represent a “shield”, making them unable to get staggered. When hit below 33% HP, they will lose that shield.

2nd Floor


Second floor will consist of Holy Archer, Crusader, Paladin and Cleric.

Holy Archer

[expand type="details"]He'll have a ranged attack and use it every couple of seconds without having to go recharge it like Pitchforks guys had to.[/expand]


Crusader

[expand type="details"]Behaves much like the Shovel Peasant, will run towards you and attack in a short straight line, but he will repeat that attack once before going on cooldown.[/expand]



Paladin

[expand type="details"]He will be the heavy type in this floor, but instead of having a close-range AOE attack, he will shoot slow-moving projectiles in a circle around him, so it is still possible to avoid the attack by carefully maneuvering around said projectiles.[/expand]


Cleric

[expand type="details"] Has two different abilities that are going to be used randomly. The first one will be “Orbital bombardment”, which will spawn a couple of orbital strikes around the player and the second will be “Revive”, which will revive one enemy at random.[/expand]

3rd Floor


Third floor will consist of Frost Archer, Frost Warrior, Frost Paladin and Frost Mage.

Another thing to note is that this floor introduces the slow mechanic and ice crystals, that upon death explode and slow the player if he is hit. The more the “slow bar” is filled, the slower the player moves. If the slow bar is filled up, the player is stunned for 2 seconds. So, better try and avoid getting hit by them.


Frost Archer

[expand type="details"] He's just like the Holy Archer, except it has a triple shot and it spawn an ice crystal on death. [/expand]


Frost Warrior

[expand type="details"]Same as Shovel Peasant, but if he is near an ice crystal, he will destroy it, granting him a heavy shield, increased HP, movement speed and attack speed.[/expand]


Frost Paladin

[expand type="details"] Is the scary one here. He will roll a big snowball toward the player. If the snowball hits an ice crystal, it destroys it and grows a bit bigger.[/expand]


Frost Mage

[expand type="details"] Mage will spawn ice crystals in a circle around the player, crystals deal damage when they come out of the ground.[/expand]

Now you know what you can expect from various inhabitants and regulars of our bar.

NecroBouncer | Patch 1.0.4
Greetings, club members!

We hope you enjoy your stay in the club, while we bring more & more changes to the game to make it better. As always, all of your feedback throughout the past few days was highly appreciated.


Changes

  • Removed a bunch of unnecessary logs and errors and added some markers throughout the game which will make it easier to debug.
  • The wind-up animation of the Pistol Whipper (trap door enemy 4th floor) has been extended a bit.
  • Explosion damage (from things like Jalapeno, Ghost Pepper, etc.) has been reduced from 40 to 25.
  • Damage from chain lightning has been reduced from 30 to 25.


Fixes

  • Fixed the issue that sometimes made it possible to loop the final floor after defeating the final boss.
  • Fixed the issue that made the saved run break if you saved it right after beating a boss.

We'll continue working on improving your experience!

NecroBouncer | Patch 1.0.3
Greetings, club members!

A small follow-up update, with a few fixes based on issues reported by the community.

Changes

  • The game will now save the progress after every beaten room, so that the game will be saved in case of an unfortunate crash.
  • All levelling relics are now double checked and unlocked at the start of every run if necessary, which should prevent the game from ever getting stuck in the level up screen.
  • The Protection Statue now kills enemies at the end through code instead of collider and also not everyone at once, which should decrease the risk of that room causing a crash.
  • The game will now check a few additional things when trying to load a saved run, so in case of a crash, it should delete the saved run (in the case something isn’t ok) but it should still save the progress of the game.

We'll continue working on improving your experience and we value your feedback!

NecroBouncer | Patch 1.0.2
Greetings, club members!

NecroBouncer has only released yesterday, but we got enough valuable feedback from our VIP members to make some much-needed adjustments to the game.



Patch notes:



Changes

  • The amount of orbital strikes in the cleric phase of the second boss has been reduced slightly.
  • Changed the 3rd fire pattern of the final boss to be a bit easier and also not as hard as the 4th pattern.
  • Added a “Fullscreen” toggle to the settings menu.


Relic Changes

  • Christmas Sweater
    The chance for chain lightning to proc has been changed from 35/50% to 25/40%.
  • Piggy Bank
    The amount of gold gained after each room has been improved from 5/10 to 8/15.
  • Red Paint
    Changed rarity from rare to epic.
  • Secret Stash Map
    The chance for props to drop gold has been changed from 50/80% to 25/50%.


Fixes

  • Fixed the Scarecrow shadow while rolling to be drawn behind him as intended.
  • Fixed the issue that made Scarecrow’s red outline not appear in the vulnerable state.
  • Fixed the issue that made text overlap in the level selection in some languages.
  • Fixed the fonts so they include all of the necessary characters for Brazilian/Portuguese and Spanish.
  • Fixed the positioning of texts in the “performance stars” menu so they don’t overlap with each other or go out of bounds on some languages.
  • Fixed the issue that made it possible for you to get stuck in the wall if you started rolling in the relic hunt in between two sections


We'll continue working on improving your experience and we value your feedback!
