- SWARMFALL โ Major Update - 5 July 2026
Thank you so much for playing SWARMFALL! ๐ Our biggest update since launch: a new map, two new heroes, a new camera and smoother multiplayer. Grab your squad and dive into the Abyss! ๐ New map: The Sunken Sanctuary An ancient sanctuary half-claimed by water, with ruins, ponds and stone bridges. - ๐น 4 new enemies to discover in a brand-new swarm. - ๐ A new mini-boss, the Guardian Dragon โ flame breath, meteors, geysers and an underground dive... it comes back 3 times, stronger each time. - ๐ A new final boss, The Horror of the Depths โ a 3-phase colossus that keeps getting angrier: meteors, shockwaves, a rain of swords to dodge... the fight escalates all the way to the end. ๐ฆธ Two new heroes (roster: 6) - ๐ก๏ธ Kasumi โ Assassin: quick daggers, vanishes into mist, and a whirling blade dance that steals life from enemies. - โจ Liora โ Support: our first support hero! Area healing and aโฆ
- SWARMFALL โ Update - 28 June 2026
Thank you so much for playing SWARMFALL! ๐ This update is all about game feel: smoother multiplayer, better-balanced enemies and far more satisfying deaths. Grab your squad and dive in together! โก Performance & netcode A big optimization pass, most noticeable for the host and during heavy waves: - ๐ Leaner networking โ enemies now cost 12.5% less bandwidth to sync, and swarms are capped + culled off-screen. The result: less lag and desync in co-op. - ๐ฌ Optimized damage numbers โ damage popups are smoothed and sent over a lightweight stream: a big upload win for the host, and no more hitches when everything's getting hit at once. - ๐งฎ Streamlined damage math โ a single pass over players on the host instead of two, so the CPU breathes during spikes. - โ Fewer stutters โ lighter enemy loops and reduced memory pressure for a steadier frame rate. โ๏ธ Enemy balancing A full stat overhaul foโฆ
- SwarmFall โ a new chapter - 27 May 2026
Hi everyone, I'd rather be straight with you. SwarmFall was built entirely on my own, from scratch, using only free assets or art I made myself. It's my first game, and shipping it on Steam will always be something I'm proud of. Today I'm making a clear-eyed call. The market is saturated, and the game is held back by technical limits โ chiefly its P2P multiplayer โ that I can't realistically fix alone and with no budget. Rather than burn out on it, I'm choosing to focus on a new project, on stronger foundations. But SwarmFall lives on: โข The game is taking part in the Ballistics Festival on June 8. โข The Founder's Pack and all its cosmetics are now free, for everyone. Nothing left to buy โ everything is unlocked for all players. โข If the community grows, updates remain possible. For now, my energy goes into the next game.
- ๐ง Fixes - 26 May 2026
๐ง Fixes - Corpses: dead characters no longer float in the air โ the body now drops properly to the ground. - Pause/Options menu: the mouse cursor now shows up correctly in-game โ you can adjust sound and settings again. - Starting a new match: you can create or join a lobby again after a game (previously: stuck, no map selectable). - Lobby counter: the number of available games now updates live (every 5s) in the search menu.
- Into the Shadows - 26 May 2026
This update puts immersion front and center: a brand-new hero, reworked effects, a richer soundscape, and clearer combat than ever. --- โ๏ธ NEW HERO โ KASUMI, THE NINJA ASSASSIN A blade from the shadows joins the roster. Kasumi thrives on stealth, a lightning-fast dash, and rapid strikes to fall upon her targets before vanishing without a trace. ๐ฎ GAME DESIGN & IMMERSION - Several gameplay adjustments for a more immersive experience and punchier combat feel. - New dynamic third-person camera that pulls you right into the action. โจ VISUAL EFFECTS - Reworked several VFX to deepen immersion. - Mini-boss attack indicators (Ghoul, Tank) now sit flush with the ground and render on top of other effects โ you'll always see where to strikeโฆ and where to dodge. - End-boss cinematics re-framed for the new camera. ๐ SOUND DESIGN - Added new sound effects for a livelier, more immersive atmosphere.โฆ

- ๐ฎ Update โ Balance & Multiplayer - 24 May 2026
โ๏ธ Enemy balance - Full balance pass on all enemies for fairer, more consistent difficulty. - ๐ง Zombie (Graveyard): no longer one-shots you! Its damage was greatly reduced โ still a heavy, tanky threat, but far fairer. - Difficulty now ramps up more gradually, building to a real tension spike in the late game. - Wave density tuned: a bit more action in solo, and a much smoother ramp in multiplayer (no more overload at 2+ players). ๐บ Ghoul mini-boss - Its spinning attack now hits much harder. - ๐ง Fix: it no longer walks through players โ its hits finally connect properly. ๐ฉธ Lifesteal - Reworked: now heals a fixed amount of HP per kill (instead of a % of damage). Much more effective against swarms. ๐ฅ Multiplayer & performance - Major netcode optimization: the game handles massive enemy swarms far better in co-op, with less host-side lag.
- SWARMFALL โ Update (May 24, 2026) - 23 May 2026

Coming in the June 5 DLC - ๐ A brand-new Necrogubz pet skin. - โญ Bigger Shuriken skin. See you on the battlefield โ and bring your friends! โ๏ธ
