Vertical Drop Heroes HD

Reverse Crawl is Released!

Hey everyone! My new game "Reverse Crawl" has been released... it's a dungeon crawl where YOU are the dungeon! You can grab a copy from the game's page here: Reverse Crawl

Enjoy!!

Game Update: Reverse Crawl skin

To celebrate the upcoming release of Reverse Crawl, the dungeon crawl where YOU are the dungeon, I have added a new skin to Vertical Drop Heroes! Just change "Standard" in the main menu to "Reverse Crawl" to play the game as a Skeleton or a Goblin, and you have the chance to play as a bad guy for a change... ;)

Game Update: Vertical Drop Heroes v1.0.3d Now Available!

Hello everyone! I've uploaded an update for Vertical Drop Heroes, bringing it to version 1.0.3d. Here are the list of changes in this version:

- Added the Inheritance System: the descendant of your previous hero will always appear in the lineup, until you quit the game. If you rolled a hero that you like, this is a good way to retry the same build without having to rely on random rerolls!
- Enemy descriptions added for every enemy in the game, to give players a better idea of what each enemy does
- 6 new music tracks, so each level now has its own unique level music
- A new (optional) miniboss, the Demonic Rogue, will randomly appear on some levels. Does not activate until injured, and has one random hero ability. Drops a gem and 4 keys when defeated

New Update for Vertical Drop Heroes HD!

A new update for Vertical Drop Heroes HD is now available, which should eliminate the loop_missiles crashes, as well as other minor bug fixes.

Demo for Vertical Drop Heroes HD now Available!

If you'd like to try the game before you buy, the free demo for Vertical Drop Heroes HD is now available for download! Just hit the "Download Demo" button, and you'll be able to play through the first two levels of the game, for free!

Let your friends know!

Game Update: Vertical Drop Heroes v1.0.3c Now Available!

Hello everyone! I've uploaded an update for Vertical Drop Heroes, bringing it to version 1.0.3c. Here are the list of

changes in this version:

- MAJOR revamp to the multiplayer code: now supports Mac network multiplayer as well! I've migrated the netcode from TCP to a hybrid mix of UDP and TCP, so multiplayer games should be a lot smoother now. You can even play cross platform between PC and Macs!

- Fixed a few multiplayer bugs: water and tiles should update properly on the client now, and the camera should adjust correctly for the client at the end of each level.

- Bloodlust no longer reduces your health over time.

- Taking health potions in multiplayer no longer crashes the game if one of the players is dead.

Minor Update: Vertical Drop Heroes v 1.0.3b is now available!

Hey everyone,

I've just uploaded a minor update to Vertical Drop Heroes that should address some minor launch issues. It should download automatically via Steam and you will notice the version number has been updated. Here's a list of updates and changes:

- Fixed "block_health" crash in Network Play, it should be either eliminated or greatly reduced now.
- Added support for directional pad control on controllers, in addition to the current analogue stick
- For Split-screen/Network play, fixed the Death Box to show the correct message when only one player is dead.
- Nerfed Shadow Squids: they should now only fire the annoying homing missiles after they have been injured for any reason.
- Buffed Omnislash: you no longer take damage when Omnislash is active.
- Reduced the damage of spikes in New Game Plus and after completing the game.

EDIT: - Added dpad support for menus
- Fixed autoattack off disabling ally/skeleton attacks
- Maximum one red dragon for each player... no more red dragon screen spam.

Thanks for the feedback and support so far, keep them coming! I will continue working on any bug reports and include them in a future major update.
