Hello, Fearfolks!

Were happy to report, that weve updated all the achievement graphics to give you even more reason to keep slaying the weaklings who think they can push you out of your lair.

Hello, Fearfolks! Cathedral 3-D features some out-of-the-box gameplay thats not immediately intuitive to everyone so we figured we can provide some tips to new monsters looking to get into massacring villagers and defending lairs. To that end, we have prepared a simple manual to explain the gameplay fundamentals and help you achieve your full potential and maximize the bloodshed. You can find the pdf HERE. Happy hunting! Your Feardemic

Hello, fearfolks!

Hello, fearfolks!

Hello, Fearfolks and retro shooter enthusiasts! As we have said, so has been done, the 2.0 update is here and Cathedral 3-D is going free to play! This patch took a lot of work and were very proud to present the changelog and get you up to date with all the new ways you can defend your Cathedral from these puny sacks of meat trying to chase you out of your domain.

CHANGELOG

[GAMEPLAY CHANGES]

• Teleport the chest to your hands!

[ARENA CHANGES]

• We redesigned the arena and added a large new area below. Go and explore!
• Enemies now can teleport around the arena, beware!

[FIXES]

• We implemented numerous small fixes and performance improvements.

Cathedral 3-D has been out for a while but its not been dead in the slightest. A lot of work goes on behind the scenes, and you can see the project is alive by the big patches weve been able to put out with the help of the community feedback. That is one of the reasons why we thought it appropriate to release a new teaser for Cathedral (and update the Steam capsules). Another reason? Feardemics Fear Fest, where well show you something new. Intrigued? Wait till you watch this new teaser and get PUMPED for whats to come at Fear Fest. [previewyoutube=kgo-nNTWhQg;full][/previewyoutube] Feardemics Fear Fest is happening in just a few days on March 15, 7 pm CET/ 10 am PST. Set a reminder or simply navigate to the fearfest.online website and consult the countdown to make sure you wont miss the show! The website also contains details about the Fest lineup, and all the other stuff happening at the event such as Deep Dives with the developers, including Mateusz Bielicki, creator of Cathedral 3-D, as well as links to Feardemics Twitch and Youtube where the festivities are going to happen. Be there or be square, dont let our host Hunter Peterson and his silky smooth voice down! Cheers!

About the game

Hey Monsters, this is Giorgio from Feardemic. The recent influx of new players pushed the developer to work harder on improving the game experience, hence why we are pleased to announce that a new update has just been released on Steam. And yes, that annoying lag issue has finally been solved! Keep the feedback coming - we are always listening. By the way we haven't forgot about support for Mac and Linux, and the promised additional content. Keep ready for patch 1.5 next month and be ready to expect new maps, game modes, and even more surprising stuff... Lastly, one interesting fact: so far not a single player managed to defeat The Hand the mysterious entity mentioned in the 'how to play' section. This also means nobody has found the way to beat the game yet (yes, you've read that right, there's an endgame condition), so we are considering some spicy contest idea to challenge everyone to do their best... Keep following this hub to find out more!

CHANGELOG

• Significant performance upgrades due to optimized physics engine and renderer.
• New prettier clouds.
• New glossy shader on stained glass and new blood splashes.
• Small UI upgrades (e.g. proper checkboxes in the settings menu).

• Fixed an infamous issue that caused stuttering on certain hardware configurations.
• Fixed an issue that occasionally made archers and wizards invisible.
• The chest will no longer move horizontally when the player jumps on top of it.
• Disabled a glitch that allowed the player to repeatedly drop chest, jump on top of it, then grab it and jump again. It was hilarious to watch, but it was time to fix it.
• Fixed an issue that occasionally made the game launching as a background process on some versions of Windows.
• Fixed a glitch that occasionally made fire effects over burning enemies appearing as straight vertical lines.
• Fixed an issue that occasionally made secondary light sources (e.g. pickups) disappearing during the gameplay.
• Fixed an issue with the blending of some visual effects.
