The Deep Lore of Vampire Survivors

While we wait for an in-game bestiary, I just wanted to make everyone aware that this is not bacteria nor a desktop fan, but it is, allegedly, a "Lion Head":

Curse PowerUp

The new Curse PowerUp is for experienced players and will most likely be tweaked quite a bit compared to the others as new patches keep coming. If you buy it by accident, please remember that you can refund your PowerUps at anytime, for free.

What's next

Next week we'll be moving up to patch 0.3.0, containing a new game mechanic and a new Stage, complete with new layout and enemies.

Localisation

There's work in progress for languages that require a lot of space and for using better fonts, but an estimate for such improvements would be after the next patch.
Thank you to everyone who wants to contirbute to fan translations, still have a lot of emails to go through so sorry if I still haven't managed to reply to everyone!

Linux version

Still in the process of making tentative native builds, especially with the Steam Deck being just around the corner, but for now Proton is still the best way to play the game, even on Deck.
