Soon I will eventually clear the adventure modes and have nothing left to unlock yet again, no reason to keep playing, staring into a color-filled void as I watch a number go up. Then you find 'adventure mode', which is essentially a standalone 'gamemode' with minor twists where you grind to unlock all the same characters and powerups again on different maps. No map that hasn't been crawled across in every manner possible. And you do it again, and again, and again, and again, and before you know it there are no more things to upgrade, nor to grind for. You realize the grim reaper can be killed. You realize there are secrets to be found. Eventually it all ends when an invincible grim reaper collides into you at Mach 10. The numbers go up and the colors on the screen increase. Luca & poncle (including the marketing team)Īt first it's like 'Aw man, this is just Diablo but more boring!

Thank you all once again and see you in the next run! That's all for now, got a pretty busy 2024 ahead of us! What will these experiments yield? Is there a meaning to the icons? Are there "only" six in progress? Why is this called PENTAgram in game, if the star has 6 points? Will there be a vampire? We'll find out the answers to these and many other important questions someday. as you can see from this totally not vague overview, we're following a highly scientific method and it's totally not an esoteric process at all: it keeps us free to, well, experiment, stay flexible, take risks and have fun we don't know when, or even if, we'll be happy with the final results and be ready to share them we're starting with just an idea, we don't know where that will lead us and that's okay Something I've been trying to put in place almost since the beginning of VS' crazy ride is finally happening: poncle is teaming up with other indie devs to work on some VS-adjacent experiments. THE VAMPIRE SURVIVORS EXPERIMENTUh-oh, what now?
