This Online Multiplayer Playtest is available until the 5th of August.
Playtest Key Points:
— To engage you more, we reworked the weapon and map selection compared to the previous playtest;
— A dev console will be available to help us gather feedback. Just don’t be afraid of it.
And the most important:
If you are facing an issue, please share the log files with us, as it will be easier for our team to analyze and fix a bug. Here is a short instruction on how to report a bug:
Option 1:
1. Press "Win+R"; 2. Paste it "AppData\LocalLow\Neverjam Studio\SpiderHeckApp" in the window that comes up. Press Enter; 3. Send us your Player file to the # bug-reports channel on our Discord server.
Option 2:
1. Please press the button "Open Log File" on the dev console; 2. Save the file as .txt or copy it and paste it into https://pastebin.com/; 3. Send the file to the # bug-reports channel on our Discord server.

Ever wondered who creates all those badass tunes you dance to in SpiderHeck? Anyways guys, those electronic tracks are the exact tracks that, when listening to them, you can’t help but naively believe that you are actually good enough to beat Level 9 in Tiers of Heck.
The credit for the SpiderHeck OST goes to a talented musician by the name of Professor Kliq. He prepared a special video about his take on creating сontagiously good futuristic music. It will be shown at the Save & Sound festival.
Watch it live right here: http://saveandsound.io. July 16th (hint: today), 11AM PDT / 20:00 CEST.

Thanks to everyone who took part in the online multiplayer playtest! Your contribution to SpiderHeck is invaluable. We are carefully studying your feedback and continuing to develop the heck out of the game!
Even though the playtest is now over, we are adding a free updated demo version of the game to the Steam page!
What’s new in the demo:
🕷️ New Tiers Of Heck game mode is now available.
This is a new solo only challenge mode in which you have to suffer, ahem... to pass a certain number of waves of enemies under certain conditions. The further you go, the harder the game will become. Oh, and by the way: you only have one life. Just thought we'd mention that.
Another small but important addition: the demo version has a different list of maps, perks and weapons from the playtest version.
👉 You can install the demo by clicking ‘Download’ on the game’s Steam page.
Well, are you ready to test your SpiderHeck skills and become the heckiest of spiders? Install the demo and don't forget to share your impressions with us!
It's been awhile since we’ve had a Heck of the Week, thank you for recording your mind-blowing hecks and sharing them with us! We’ve been keeping track though, so read on and check out the winners of the previous weeks. Let’s see what you’ve all been upto!
An incredible stroke of luck follows Memo222; definitely worthy of some hekkin’ applause!
When it seems that everything is lost... Wait! Was it just luck or actually an elaborate plan all along!? Thanks for the video, fastbanana!
Let’s be supportive of lukelcc, as the bouncy rocket played a dirty trick. *Sympathetic hugs*
Get rid of enemies with just one shot and survive. That’s a really mind-blowing heck. Bravo, Ozmos!
Despite Grease’s skills, the enemy was quicker this time. But it was a valiant hekkin’ effort!
That’s all for today!
We’d like to thank each and every one of our community members who continue to share their Heck of the Week clips with us. Keep it up, and we hope to see your mind-blowing hecks in the next selection!
Who’s awesome? You’re awesome! That’s why we’ve extended the playtest until June 13th!
This means that you have more time to enjoy our Online Multiplayer Playtest with your friends. And, most importantly, share your thoughts and feedback.
Now go! Shoot the web and throw your particle blades at the enemies (or in the lava) and don’t forget to record your gameplay! Also, join our Discord server to stay up to date with all the news regarding the playtest and let us know if you have any questions.

The online multiplayer playtest has been going on for a week now, and we’ve received a lot of feedback, suggestions, and even some criticism (which is good)!
HOWEVER! We need more feedback and more testers!
We’re excited to announce that after the first round of feedback, the online multiplayer playtest is now available to everyone! We took a lot of comments we received into account, and we’re also updating the playtest with some new sweet features!
Customization system
Who (or what) do you want to be today – a samurai? How about fruit? Depending on your mood, choose different hats and colors for your spiders!
Spiders colors are available by default, but hats are unlocked by getting achievements (to make it more interesting, we suggest you try to find them yourself 😉)
To customize your spider, jump to the island on the left side of the main lobby.
New weapons
Double Particle Blade
This weapon features two blades on each side. Throw, spin, deflect attacks and crush your friends (or foes) with twice the power!
Hecksaw
A weapon that shoots a disc that deals damage. The disc does not disappear immediately, it is active for a while and moves by bouncing off surfaces. Try it on the new Ant Domain map! 😉
New maps
Swings
You will have to fight on platforms that resemble swings on this map. Pushing your friends into lava is now easier than ever.
Ant Domain
A closed map in the form of a labyrinth. With its many branching tunnels, there’s plenty of room for strategy, but limited space will make it harder for you to dodge your enemy’s attacks. Plan your battle accordingly!
As a reminder, this online multiplayer playtest is available until June 9th, 23:59 GMT, so you still have plenty of time to share your feedback with us!
