Update 1.4 Now Available - Includes Brand New Easy Mode and Spanish Support!
Hey there again Fellow Brawler Fans!
We just released a new update which introduces full Spanish localization to the game thanks to the amazing effort of Ricardo José Giménez Garcia! We greatly appreciate all the awesome work that he’s done translating the game, and we really hope that all of you guys will enjoy it as much as we do!
In addition to this, the update also introduces a Brand New Easy Mode that many of you have been requesting. This new mode helps to make the game’s difficulty more manageable by introducing numerous changes to its balancing, including adding more health for Vasily, decreasing the Sergeant enemy’s block ratio, and enabling hit reactions using simple attacks on certain of the really challenging late game enemies, amongst other changes. This mode can be activated-and-deactivated at any point in the game, so it can be very useful in overcoming particularly challenging levels that might have acted as a roadblock to your progression in the past. To enable easy mode, just enter the game menu and select it in the difficulty tab.
Here’s a brief overview of all the changes that this update introduces:

This is definitely not the last update that we have planned for the game though, as we’re currently working on polishing a big new feature that almost everyone has been asking for since day one. We’re really excited to hear what you guys will think of it, and we’re hoping to be able to share more information about it soon. So please keep an eye out on this space for future updates and news.
Lastly, we’re always considering new ways of adding more language support to the game and really appreciate all the amazing help that members of the Steam community have been kind enough to provide us with. So, if anyone would like to try their hand at localizing the game into other languages, we would be thrilled to work with you and add it to the game.
Thanks a million again for all of your continued support and we hope that you have fun crushing some newly more squishable skulls!

Update 1.3 Now Available - Includes Full Russian V.O. Support!
Hey there again fellow vengeful monks,
We’re really excited to announce that we’ve just released a culturally important update for the game. Being a studio based in Moscow, we’ve also wanted to capture the Russian flair with Redeemer. Therefore we’re thrilled to let you guys know that this latest update adds Full Russian VO to the game!

So we’re really excited to be able to give him a Russian voice and share it with all of you. We really hope that you guys enjoy the extra level of flair that this adds to the game as much as we do!
That’s not all though, as this update also introduces some additional requested improvements to the game. Here is the full overview of everything included:
