We've got some exciting news to talk about today. DiscStorm is getting a major update! This should come as no surprise if you've followed our blog ove the last few months, however, after plenty of testing we're happy to announce that the DiscStorm Mulitplayer Update will be launching July 2016 on Steam. This update is packed full of features and we can't wait to get it into your hands. Here's what's in the patch:
New Game Modes
We're adding three new multiplayer modes, each introduces a new way to beat your friends. There's the strategic Safeguard where holding onto your disc is essential, the score based Capture the Flag mode where you need to be in the right place at the right time and the frantic Poison where you need to chase after the cure to the zombie outbreak.
Custom Multiplayer Matches
Fancy playing DiscStorm for more matches, want to only play a particular mode or on your favourite three arenas? The customisation menu lets your tweak all aspects of a multiplayer from how many rounds you need to win to whether voting or powerups are enabled.
Improved AI
We've vastly improved the AI in multiplayer, they have unique behaviours for each mode and they also have their own personalities. We feel this makes the AI mimic humans a lot better so they're not the superhumans that they currently are but still put up a challenge and can respond to different situations a lot better!
And much much more!
This isn't a comprehensive list of features and there's a whole bunch more content bundled away including:
- Taunt animations to tease your friends
- Voting menu in mutliplayer matches
- Mouse support
- A new system for unlocking character costumes
- Plenty of bug fixes
- One other little secret that you'll have to discover for yourselves

🎮 Full Controller Support
- DiscStorm LINUX [1.11 G]
- DiscStorm - Soundtrack
Fast-paced and furious, DiscStorm is an arena combat game where split-second reactions are essential to dodge flying discs as they ricochet around at breakneck speed.
Meet up with your friends at home and challenge them to intense multiplayer deathmatches. If you want to really test your skills, then the single player adventure boasts diverse settings such as haunted mansions and pirate ships - all of which come with their own formidable enemies and epic boss fights.
Inspired by 90s console classics, DiscStorm evokes retro nostalgia with its upbeat chip-tune soundtrack and bold pixel-art visuals. Successfully progress through the vibrant environments and you'll not only earn achievements for your efforts, but also be rewarded with quirky new costumes for the cast of characters.
- Fast-paced arena combat - Gameplay that's easy to pick up, but truly difficult to master: dodge and deflect flying discs as they ricochet around the arena at lightning speed.
- Energetic local multiplayer - Invite friends over to battle. DiscStorm offers a variety of compelling game match types; fight it out in a classic first-to-ten deathmatch or strive to keep the crown in the hectic 'Regicide' mode.
- Epic boss fights - Each arena brings its own unique play-style and enemies. Whether it be the laser-shooting Stone Golem in the jungle temple or the lava-spewing Fire Elemental of the volcano lair, exciting new challenges await you at every turn.
- Striking retro art and music - the soundtrack fuses modern dance trends with retro chiptunes, whilst the artwork blends classic pixel art with high fidelity graphics.
