Balance Update Public Test
HELLCARD
24.10.24 13:52 Community Announcements

We got a lot of feedback after the Tinkerer rework and have been hard at work to tweak the balance. Now we are at a point where we need you, the community, to test new changes and tell us what you think.


This beta also includes a whole new monster family, the gargoyles, along with unique mechanics. They are present in Endless mode and can spawn after the 13th floor, including new gargoyle minibosses.

And, of course, there are the traditional bug fixes included ːarchduckː.

The more people try the new build the better it will be once it goes public, now is your chance to impact the balance ːarchduckː

If you want to test it, please go to the game's properties in the Steam library and on the Beta tabs switch to release-candidate.

Important Disclaimer!


There is no crossplay between the public branch and the beta release-candidate branch - you will be able to play co-op only with others in the beta. So it's best to drag your friends along ːarchduckː

There will be a survey after you close the game, please consider filling it out with your feedback and thoughts. It would help us a lot ːpaperheartː.

You can also discuss the beta changes in a dedicated Hellcard beta test channel on our Discord server:
