Vertigo 2

Vertigo 2: Half-Like (ft Gianni Matragrano)
This video was produced in collaboration with Gianni Matragrano, Vertigo 2 cast member and staple of the retro shooter community. He'll tell you about Vertigo 2's inspirations and design sensibilities, and what makes it stand out from other games like it!

Updated Demo Now Available
In preparation for the full release of Vertigo 2 next year, I have finally updated the demo to reflect how the final game will look and feel. The changes include but are not limited to:


  • Weapon interaction has been overhauled and now uses physics
  • Arm and upper body IK has been added
  • Enemy AI has been greatly improved
  • Graphics and sounds have been polished
  • Environments are more detailed and interactive
  • Lighting has been improved
  • Performance has been improved
  • Detailed graphics settings and other options have been added


Note that no new areas or content have been added. In fact, the introduction area has been removed to get new players right into action, so the demo is shorter overall. This is simply an update to make the demo more accurate to the final game, not a brand new demo!

I hope you enjoy the new, much smoother gameplay!

Vertigo 2 Release Date Announcement!
After too many years of development, Vertigo 2 is finally nearing completion. I'm excited to announce the official release date, and show off this new trailer! Enjoy this look at some new locations, enemies, weapons, and characters.



The game will be launching March 30th, 2023.

Now, I've got to get back to putting the finishing touches on the game. See you in March!

Vertigo 2 Demo 8/24 patch notes

  • Fixed tooltip for pistol being incorrect for everyone regardless of bindings
