Hey whatsup bonkers i decided to add a bunch of hats to megabonk this update, as well as some other changes and features for version 1.0.64 :)New Stuff21 Hats and AchievementsNew Megachad skinLost Saves / ProgressSometimes players lose save files due to Steam Cloud or Megbonk bugging out, or some other reason. There isn't much to do in these cases, but I've now added a new button found under "Other" Settings inside Megabonk. This button will use your Steam Achievements to recover as much lost progress as it can. It's not perfect, and any in-game achievement that is not on Steam cannot be recovered, but it's better than nothing, and should help you get most of your stuff back.UIYou can see what items you have banished in the pause menu and when opening a chest / shrineStats now show while holding tab and showing mapAdded a little window in the Unlocks tab in the main menu showing what st…

- Ah yes, here's Megabonk's Halloween update, just in time for Christmas - 15 December 2025
Who's that I hear coming down my chimney? Why, it's… Megabonk's "Spooky" update? No, that doesn't sound quite right to me either, and yet it is in fact the truth of this world. As you've probably already gathered by the name of the update, this is one that was meant to be out for Halloween, but developer Vedinad needed a touch more time for it. Read more

- Megabonk v1.0.17 Patch - 19 October 2025
Megabonk v1.0.17 Patch Notes TLDR There is now a full map with fog of war, so you can see where you've explored You can change the opacity of your projectiles and particles. No more sunglasses needed for late-game. System Support for running the game in DX12. DX11 is recommended, but if you are experiencing crashes, running in DX12 *might* help. There should be a Steam popup that shows when you boot the game, allowing you to choose. If it's not showing yet, try restarting Steam. Also keep in mind, if you run your game in DX12, certain graphical features will be broken, like Ambient Occlusion and Color Grading. Game Particles and effects opacity slider added in Visuals settings. Auto opacity is enabled by default, and should be enough for most players. Do keep in mind that a lot of transparent projectiles is a bit harder for your PC to render, but that doesn't really matter until you hav…

- Expedition 33 developer is obsessed with Megabonk: "It's my life, help me!" - 10 October 2025
As triple-A fatigue sets in for some, we're seeing small, often slightly strange indie games take off like almost never before. Schedule 1, R.E.P.O, Peak, and, most recently, Megabonk have all carved their name into videogame history, while some blockbuster titans have floundered. Of course, I'd be remiss to leave Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 off that list - it's my personal GOTY so far, after all. But what are Sandfall's picks? One dev's answer surprised me.

- Megabonk continues to fly, trumping Hades 2 as Steam's biggest new roguelike - 8 October 2025
Adding to what was already a rather long list of 'indies appearing out of nowhere to dominate the Steam charts and flog a million copies in 2025,' Megabonk continues to absolutely crash it. Evolving the core experience of Vampire Survivors into something more dynamic and 3D, its addictive loop, huge hordes of enemies, and zany lineup of characters have made it the latest unexpected hit. Despite a fair amount of competition, and the recent 1.0 launch of GOTY contender Hades 2, Megabonk is currently Steam's biggest roguelike and one of its most-played games, period.

- v1.0.12 (Leaderboard fix and Balacing) - 8 October 2025
Version 1.0.12 Patch Notes Yo sorry about the leaderboards being broken the last few days, i took some time off over the weekend, and of course some mfers decided to break the leaderboard for everyone. But technically it's my fault for not securing the leaderboards enough, i just never expected this many people to play fucking Megabonk lol. Anyway should be fixed now! TLDRLeaderboards are fixed (i hope Shroud enjoyed his 2 day vacation)Final swarms now has some new stuff to prevent 5 hour long runs(Hopefully) fixed a bug where Alt-F4 or crashes corrupted save files Changelog Final SwarmThe current meta required you to wear sunglasses and watch a slideshow / lightshow at 1.5fps for 5 hours to get a WR. This was never intended, and I don't think anyone actually enjoyed that, so I've stirred up some shit. The final swarm is harder to survive, and your executes and black holes won't really…
