🎲 RANDOMISER UPDATE! 🎲
We’re excited to introduce the Randomiser Update, a brand-new mode designed to breathe fresh chaos into your Void Sols experience! Whether you're a seasoned adventurer or just curious to mix things up, this mode offers endless replayability with unexpected twists around every corner.
Unlocking the Randomiser Update
To access this mode:
- Complete the game at least once.
- Start a new save, go to the Challenges menu, and select Randomiser.
From there, you can customize your experience with a range of settings to create a new adventure tailored to you!
Randomiser Settings
We have many settings to customize your Randomiser experience:
- 🌱Custom Seed: If someone finds a particularly crazy seed, share it so others can give it a shot!
- 👾Random Enemies: Every enemy has a chance to be randomly transformed into any other enemy from the game
- 🗡️Random Item Placement: Flasks, Weapons, and all other equipment are randomly swapped throughout the game
- 🗝️Random Key Items Placement: Keys are randomly placed! We worked hard to ensure this doesn’t cause soft-locks, so be sure to check in unlikely places. There may be opportunities for sequence breaking you haven’t found!
- 📜Randomize Stats on Level Up: Every time you level up, your stats are randomly assigned out of the points available. Do you risk leveling up and messing with your stats?
- ⚔️Randomize Starting Weapon: Who knows what weapon you will start with, it could be any weapon from the entire game!
- 🏹Randomize Loadout on Level Up: All your loadout choices are made for you when you rest to level up. Learn to adapt to whatever RNG gives you! Combine this with random stats on level up for an extremely challenging and chaotic time.
Alongside the Randomiser update we’ve also implemented some bug fixes and other balance changes in this update.
Patch Notes 1.5.3.6
New Features
- RANDOMISER CHALLENGE
- Play the game with a variety of settings randomizing your experience and creating new and surprising encounters!
- You can access this after beating the game at least once by creating a new save, going to “Challenges” and selecting “Randomizer”
- Permadeath Option when creating a new save
- This will permanently delete your save when you die! Use with caution
- Recent Items can be viewed in the pause menu to help you remember the last 10 items you picked up
- Added Steam Rich Presence!
Gameplay Changes
- You can no longer dash through breakable walls, you must attack them to pass. Letting players dash through these walls was causing some issues with pathfinding, enemy AI, and encounter design
- Made one section of the Apex Castle Town a little easier
- Made one section of the Factory a little easier
- Final phase of Amalgamate enemy spawn changed
Minor Bug Fixes
- Sols gained from killing Warden are no longer lost if you quit without resting
- You can no longer find flasks in Ranger Challenge (as intended)
- Fixed sorting on trapper spears, preventing them from rendering underneath the environment in some places
- Ruby Phial description improved
- Multiple localization fixes in many places
- Alpha Wolf should no longer be able to dash out of bounds
- You should no longer see the “new” indicator if you find a potion ingredient prior to unlocking Potion Mixing
- You should no longer be able to stay locked onto enemies that have died
- Confessors can now have their movement speed modified (allowing them to be Trapped or slowed by Caltrops)
- Fixed an animation bug with Frying Pan
- Confirmation modal UI improvements
BALANCE CHANGES
Primary Weapons
- Scythe Heavy Attack hitbox and visual are more reliable now
- Scythe Heavy Attack Stance Damage Multiplier
- Halberd Combo Attack has a bit more mobility, making it easier to land hits
Relics
- Relic of Redirection no longer reduces Jolt damage from Lightning Talisman triggering Jolt on yourself. It still significantly reduces Jolt damage from enemies. We felt equipping the Relic of Redirection and Lightning Talisman offered a bit too much free damage with very little downside.
Enemies
- Reduced maximum number of attacks the Alpha Wolf can chain together
- Slightly reduced speed of one of the Cultist Harvester’s more difficult attacks
- Slightly reduced tracking of one of the Pulverizer’s attacks
- Apex Grunt Attack Damage Per Hit
- Apex Grunt Poison Stacks Per Hit
Bosses
- Infernal Warden
- Chooses to use fire attacks at a more predictable cadence
- Zenith
- Phase 1 should no longer be able to dodge outside the arena
- Phase 1 should attack at a more regular, predictable cadence
- Phase 1 should dodge player attacks a bit more infrequently
Demo
- Demo will be shortened up to the Warden
- Demo progress and achievement progress can be carried across to the main game
- Will include all languages that are present in the main game
The Randomiser Update is now available! Just update your game, dive into the unpredictable, and see how you fare in the shadows of the unknown.
Your next adventure might be the wildest one yet. 🌌✨
