- The "Definitive Edition" Update! - 22 November 2019
Hello! The "Definitive Edition" update is the final expansion to Caveblazers. This update extends and refines the original game with a plethora of new items & upgrades, as well as some quality of life changes, and a few final bug fixes. Here's a breakdown of the major changes: 38 New Items & Blessings! https://i.imgur.com/Q3KZ7ih.gif All of the new items & blessings have a large focus on synergy! For example (as above), combine the Bolt Lance with the Arrow Splitter, Rebound Emblem & Twofold Perk for ridiculous lightning-based ranged attacks. More Elemental Options https://i.imgur.com/XlJCQul.gif Get a hold of the Fire Affinity Blessing in an early level (increased fire damage from every fire kill) and combine it with a fire-based ranged or melee attack, and you could end up with massive fire damage by the end of the game. Also, different damage types have different coloured damage numb…
- Caveblazers Together is a mod lets you blaze through caves with friends - 25 March 2019
Everything is better with friends. Running. Dining. Playing roguelikes with snazzy combat and varied upgrades, even if they do have bizarrely hateful endings that are so horrendous I can’t avoid mentioning them in this first paragraph. What I mean to say is that Caveblazers now has an online multiplayer mod, and it’s probably great. The mod also lets you enable 360 degree aiming (rather than 8-directional), and adds a command that skips the early levels and plops you straight into a shop. Just don’t fuss too hard about winning.

- Caveblazers Together mod adds online co-op - 25 March 2019
You may remember Vadim from Nuclear Throne Together , which added an online mode to Vlambeer's twin-stick shooter, as well as similar mods for Spelunky , Wasteland Kings, and other games. Now he's done the same for Caveblazers, adding online co-op to the 2D roguelike platformer. And it's available on Steam . Vadim has written a blog post about the process of creating the Caveblazers Together mod if you're interested in a look behind the scenes. He writes about trickiness of creating it while the game was still being updated, but notes that if the game weren't still receiving patches it likely wouldn't have enough of a community to make it worthwhile creating this kind of mod for it. Vadim says that he'll keep the mod updated, and may add achievements in the future—since it's a separate executable, you can't unlock regular achievements…
