• GoonCorp lied to us... - 14 February 2025

  I worked for GoonCorp. He's a fraud. He claimed he was going to release Soyjak Requiem on the 14th, when he actually had full intention of releasing the update on the 21st. He also claims to be a "man of honour" despite the fact that he's a dastardly goon who terrorizes innocent babies and kittens and BIPOC... this guy needs to go jail. GoonCorp is a sadist truecel monster. As a whistleblower, I have access to leaks from the update. GoonCorp has been working with the legendary YouTuber and deepstate member BadlandsChugs on importing him INTO the world of Gem Defender. If Chugs's plans go unchecked, Shartaia may be doomed...

• Incoming Update + OST Release - 23 November 2023

  I am excited to announce that an update will come in around two months that will add new worlds/bosses. Unfortunately, the game still lacks the momentum necessary for Steam to allow us to release community items so hopefully this update should rake in enough 'traction' for Steam to make it happen. But if not, at the very least you'll still be getting 8 new worlds & bosses in batches of 2-3 new worlds every few weeks starting mid-January. The official soundtrack for the game is now live on Steam for those interested. In the meantime, I'll be dropping a couple of patches and bug fixes. For those interested in unlocking the secret boss, you'll be able to hold left mouse to stop your weapons from firing. Most importantly though, ITT I want you guys to give me your suggestions for worlds/enemies/balance changes. Currently, I've only got about a third of the new content drafted out so I've go…

• 11/6 Hotfix - 6 November 2023

  - Fix for 'True Chud' & 'Uberchud' achievements Soundtrack coming soon. More is in the works.

• October 27 Patch - 27 October 2023

  - The menu screen background should now work on all platforms - "Totally Nutty Dude", "ACK!", and "Eiriel" achievements now work - Updated Post-Processing for a few levels - All bosses have had their health & bullet patterns tweaked - Waves will no longer be extended indefinitely by a lone enemy - Projectiles now aim during boss fights like in normal waves HINT: You can reach the hidden world by refusing to kill one of Soystein's victims. Just play with him for like two minutes instead and he will show you the way.

• GEM DEFENDER: SOYJAK SURVIVORS IS OUT - 23 October 2023

  A hotfix will be released Wednesday (Oct. 25) that fixes a couple of bugs related to boss health/projectiles, HUD scaling, and extended wave times. Community items such as trading cards, icons, and hopefully backgrounds will be added once steam allows us.
