Update 1.4 is live!

Undead Onslaught Update 1.4 Patch Notes

Hello, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

Update 1.4 is finally here and it is one of the most substantial updates the game has received so far. This update introduces brand-new content, expands progression, and revisits several core systems to improve clarity, balance, and long-term replayability.

Below are the full patch notes for Update 1.4.

[hr][/hr]

New Map Von Eldrath Castle

A second map has arrived.

Von Eldrath Castle, the ancient stronghold of the Von Eldrath Bloodline, is now playable. The castle is currently under siege by Dwarven forces and their Fae allies.

New playable map with a unique layout and encounter flow\n Distinct pacing and enemy compositions compared to the original map\n The addition of a second map allowed us to review overall balance and smooth out progression pacing across the game

Relieve the siege of the castle and perhaps its enigmatic ruler will take notice.

She mentioned to look for her coming at first shadow on the fifth night.\nAt dusk, look to the East.

[hr][/hr]

New Playable Villain Seraphyne Von Eldrath

A brand-new Villain joins the roster.

Seraphyne Von Eldrath enters the fray, hungry for the blood of the innocents.

Fully playable Villain with unique mechanics and talents\n Specializes in Bleed, Blood synergies, and riskreward gameplay\n Features a unique unlock condition tied directly to the new map

Keep a close eye while exploring Von Eldrath Castle her arrival is anything but ordinary.\n\n\nYou can read more about her here: [dynamiclink href=\"https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2985840/view/518596658624201132\"][/dynamiclink]

[hr][/hr]

New Basic Evolutions

Weve added a major expansion to basic weapon evolutions.

New basic evolutions that do not force hybrid damage-type playstyles\n Each damage type now has two new evolutions\n A total of twelve brand-new evolutions added\n Focused, single-damage-type builds are now fully viable\n Hybrid builds remain possible, but are no longer mandatory

This change greatly expands build identity and experimentation.

[hr][/hr]

Onslaught System 2.0

The Onslaught system has been fully reworked.

Onslaught is now configured before the run\n Difficulty is increased manually on a per-run basis\n No longer functions as a dynamic difficulty system\n Gives players full control over challenge and risk

This makes difficulty scaling more transparent, intentional, and player-driven.

[hr][/hr]

Relics Update

The Relic system has received a major update in 1.4.

Brand-new Relics UI\n Multiple new Relics added\n Balance updates to existing Relics\n Improved clarity and consistency in Relic descriptions\n Better alignment with newer damage types and build synergies

While Relics were already part of the game, this update significantly expands their impact on builds.\n\nYou can read more about the Relics update here: [dynamiclink href=\"https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2985840/view/689735528964162149\"][/dynamiclink]

[hr][/hr]

Necronomicon Overhaul

The Necronomicon has received a major visual and functional overhaul.

Completely refreshed visual design\n Improved layout and navigation\n Increased interactivity across pages and entries\n Many entries now feature short visual previews of mechanics and effects\n Clearer presentation of systems, synergies, and progression

The Necronomicon is now designed as a true in-game reference tool.

[hr][/hr]

Wave Overhaul

Enemy waves have been significantly reworked.

Updated enemy compositions\n Improved enemy behavior and engagement patterns\n Better escalation of difficulty throughout a run\n Clearer identity and roles for enemy types

[hr][/hr]

Talent & Build Improvements

Building on the changes introduced in 1.3.5, Update 1.4 continues refining talent structure and build clarity.

Further tuning of the new talent tree philosophy\n Earlier access to damage-type conversions\n Improved consistency across Villain talent trees\n Fewer dead or overly restrictive talent choices

[hr][/hr]

\n A Note From the Team

Before we wrap this up, we want to address something openly.

We know this update took much longer than originally anticipated and were sorry about that.

Real-life obligations and unexpected pressures put significant time constraints on our small indie team, and that inevitably affected our development pace.

Undead Onslaught is being built by a small group of people who genuinely care about the game, and while were doing our absolute best to keep it evolving, future updates may arrive at a slightly slower pace than before.

That said, we remain optimistic.

The next update is currently planned to be the launch update, though depending on how things shape up, there *may* be a 1.5 update before final release. Well have a clearer picture and more concrete information by the end of Q1 2026.

Until then, thank you for your patience, your support, and for sticking with us on this journey.

Happy holidays to everyone, and thank you again for waiting with us.

Sorry for having to make you wait a bit longer but awesome things come to those who wait.

With gratitude,

The Wish App Games Team\n

What's Coming in 1.4.0 (Part 1)

Update 1.3.5 Introducing Seraphyne Von Eldrath

A new Villain has joined the dark ranks of Undead Onslaught the vampiric noble, Seraphyne Von Eldrath! With her crimson blades, swarms of bats, and blood-cursed sorcery, she is as elegant as she is deadly. Lets take a closer look at her powers and talents.

[hr][/hr]

Seraphyne Von Eldrath

][img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/2f554340564431b9ad6d8ec5d8d0fd211ba1be25.png\"][/img]

Basic Ability Sanguine Rapier

[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/3a5685efe6d15ddd49466d1536e3d96e375eeb84.png\"][/img]

Seraphyne performs two elegant slashes to both sides, followed by a piercing thrust forward that applies the Bleed effect. Perfect for cutting through groups while leaving enemies weakened over time.

[hr][/hr]

Passive Ability Blood Pact

[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/0ca88156106c4872e1baf31f9e133ff77c4cc188.png\"][/img]

Blood Pact applies the Soulbind Curse to nearby enemies. While cursed, damage taken by one is shared among all, letting Seraphyne spread pain across entire groups.

[hr][/hr]

Active Ability Undying Chorus

[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/33ddffc9b4fa9bff053636a11a884a04dcab0e5d.png\"][/img]

Summon a swarm of bats to harry and shred nearby foes. Enemies already suffering from Bleed have their wounds worsened as the bats extend the effects duration.

[hr][/hr]

Core Skills

[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/5860559438eebe229835fc627b9cb8f920fad5ab.png\"][/img]

Ultimate Blood Sabbath: A deadly swarm of bats damages enemies while restoring Seraphynes health.
[/*]
Dash Midnight Hunt: Transform into a bat and dash through enemies, applying Bleed.
[/*]
Class Mechanic Full Moon Madness: When above 30% HP, Seraphyne trades her own life force for bonus damage. Damage dealt through Bleed fills a meter that, when maxed, grants Regeneration scaling with nearby Blood Pools.
[/*]

[hr][/hr]

Stats

[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/bbff45f5f3a4ae6a5d2da78693035fffdde87457.png\"][/img]

Seraphyne is agile, with strong critical damage potential but little natural regeneration. Her doubled invincibility after dashing makes her highly rewarding to play aggressively.

[hr][/hr]

Talent Tree

[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45022834/71aa4584fa00c4b4e099ca15384e37fff1075350.png\"][/img]

Her talent tree expands upon her vampiric style enhancing her blades, empowering her bats, and amplifying her Soulbinding curses. With each row, new synergies open to create unique builds.

Shout in the Dark Your bats now emit shrieks every few seconds, slowing and damaging enemies.\n

Crimson Exchange Sacrifice a Soulbound enemy to cheat death, healing yourself when near defeat.\n\n1.4 is currently in Beta! To gain access head over to our Discord and follow the directions.\n

[hr][/hr]

Become the Crimson Dancer

Seraphyne Von Eldrath brings elegance, risk, and raw vampiric power to the battlefield. Whether you play her as a crit-stacking duelist, a blood-drinking tank, or a swarm-summoning controller, she offers a wealth of options for Villains hungry for new playstyles.

Hotfix: Game Difficulty Round 2

Greetings, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

We have just deployed another small hotfix:

Wave Balance: Reduced the HP and quantity of all enemies by 10-30% on waves in 15-20 minute mark.
[/*]
Cordemal: Frost Bolt - base stats improved to have additional piercing and slightly more damage.
[/*]
Cordemal: Ice Orb - Significantly higher base damage and greater damage improvement on level up.
[/*]
Cordemal: Frost Nova - area improvements on level up.
[/*]
Pentagram: Significant improvement in damage and area across all levels.
[/*]

Additionally last week we stealht dropped another hotfix that:

Bosses: Won't jump aroun so frequently anymore by significantly increasing the interval between dashes (some bosses still have double dash moves, but the interval between these double dashes is much higher now).
[/*]
Bosses: HP and HP scaling reduction across the board.

P.S.
We are well aware of current imbalance between characters: Rend is much stronger and fun to play, whereas most other (especially starting) villains are much more challenging. Easier way would be to just nerf Rend, but we decided to do the opposite - leave Rend as is (maybe just a reeeeeally small nerf at most) but rather give all other villains major improvements to match his power. This is also an opportunity to give some of the VIllains with a bit more "plain" class mechanic something more interesting. This will happen in 1.4 so expect some hotfixes in the meantime to make the gap less frustrating.
[/*]

[ 2025-07-21 09:17:24 CET ] [Original Post]

Hotfix: Game Difficulty and Discord Link

Greetings, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

We have just deployed a small hotfix that should reduce the HP of all enemies by 10-30% depending on wave.
Ranged enemies (both with ranged based attacks and melee enemies with ranged special attacks) have had their damage and cooldown reduced by ~20-30%

Additionnaly we have also updated the Discord link so you can now join our community once again!

This is the first difficulty adjustment, we are monitoring the curve and will potentially do 1 or 2 more rounds of adjustments until we are happy with the difficulty for players in the low to mid meta progression range.

Update 1.3.5 is live!

Greetings, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

The time has finally arrivedUpdate 1.3.5 is officially LIVE! Prepare yourselves to unleash chaos on a whole new level with this massive update, featuring incredible new and reworked talents for ALL Villains, exciting new Blood damage type, and a long awaited overhaul for waves of enemies!

You can read more about new talents here:
https://steamcommunity.com/games/2985840/announcements/detail/518585893687132763

...and about massive talent overhauls and new Blood damage type here:
https://steamcommunity.com/games/2985840/announcements/detail/518586511734604453

Now, today let's talk about the wave overhaul!

Smarter, Deadlier, Braver: The Evolution of Your Enemies

From Stat Blocks to Behavior-Driven Enemies

In the early waves of Undead Onslaught, your enemies were mostly defined by numbers higher health, faster speed, stronger attacks. They were brave, yes... but simple.

Not anymore.

As the game has evolved, so have the forces of good. They're no longer just waves of villagers with different outfits. Now, they come in two distinct classes:

Horde Enemies fast, numerous, and relentless.

Special Enemies elite units with unique behaviors, auras, and abilities that can completely change how you play.

This is more than difficulty scaling. This is a shift in how Undead Onslaught challenges you.

Horde Enemies: The Shield Wall Crumbles or Crushes

Enemies like Villagers, Hawks, Mercenaries, and the new Angels represent the bulk of the resistance. They're fast. They're everywhere. And when left unchecked, they drown you in righteous numbers.

But now, they're not alone.

Special Enemies: Behavior Over Stats

Our real focus in this update has been giving special enemies distinct personalities and battlefield roles:

Royal Infantry doesnt just tank it activates Shield Wall, reducing frontal damage and forcing you to reposition.

Rogues and Hunters pause to throw projectiles predictable if you notice their cast time, deadly if you dont.

Adventurers seek out Blacksmiths to get buffs, becoming far more dangerous if you let them succeed.

Archangels don't attack directly but their buff aura can turn an entire swarm into an unstoppable wall of light.

Each special enemy now asks you to make decisions: Do you take out the support? Burn down the ranged threat? Avoid the area-control golem? Or just try to survive?

This is no longer a numbers game.
Its a thinking one.---
P.S. Necronomicon entries for enemies have been updated with descriptions of their behaviors and abilities.
--- Thank you for joining us on this exciting journey. Now go forth, Villains, and dominate the world of Undead Onslaught!

Your continued support and feedback mean the world to usplease share your thoughts on these new additions as you play!

With deepest gratitude,
The Wish App Games Team

Details on Third Major Update 1.3 (part 1!)

Hello, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

Between the new features and a lot of spilled blood (literally), were beyond excited to share whats on the horizon for your villainous escapades.

Lets dive into the key highlights of Update 1.3!

Major Visual Overhaul: A Darker, Bloodier World Awaits

The lands youve ravaged are getting a stunning new look! Were introducing a brand-new map with a fresh environment, enhanced visual effects, and yesactual blood effects. Game Description Image

Now, as you vanquish your enemies, their blood will paint the battlefield in the name of the dark gods you serveor simply your own twisted ambitions. Blood effects will fade over time, but as your Onslaught Level rises, the blood lingers longer, letting you paint the map in crimson glory.

Prepare for a world thats not just more immersive but also a whole lot messier. >:)

Postponing the New Game Mode

Weve thought long and hard about the new game mode we teased previously. Ultimately, we werent happy with how it turned out, and weve decided not to include it in this update.

Why?

Its tough being an indie game dev without publisher support, but theres one big upside: we arent forced to ship anything we dont believe in. Releasing something we dont find fun would be a disservice to you and our vision for the game. So, while its disappointing, we believe this is the right decision.

The good news?

Some features developed for the new mode are making their way into the standard map!

New Map Features

Minimap Improvements
Navigation just got easier with a much-improved minimap, now clearer and more detailed.

Map Overlay
Want a better look at your surroundings? A map overlay has been added for more strategic play.
Game Description Image

[i]
P.S. This is still W.I.P, final version won't be as empty O.o[/i]

Obelisks*: Your New Best Friends

Two new types of Obelisks are being introduced to empower your runs:

Permanent Buff Obelisks

Small buffs that can stack endlessly to bolster your strength.
Temporary Buff Obelisks

Offer short but powerful boosts, with effects and durations improved via Taro Card upgrades.
Make the most of these new mechanics to unleash your inner villain!

*The actual name of the feature might change close to the release o.O[/i]

Whats Next?

Thats all for now, but were not done yet. Next up, well reveal our brand-new playable villain coming in Update 1.3the enigmatic Dark Ascendant! Stay tuned for a first look at his fiery power and ultimate destruction. Okay, okay, here's a sneak peak :3

As always, were incredibly grateful for your support. Your feedback, reviews, and villainous passion drive us to make Undead Onslaught the best it can be.

Update 1.2.6 is live!

Greetings, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

We just deployed a small update that focuses on several things:

[olist]

Balance: Bird Mother (First Boss) HP reduced by 33%

Balance: Boss dash distance reduced by 33%

Balance: The first Nemesis (Hero) will spawn relatively close to Villain's start position.

Balance: All Nemeses (Heroes) spawn distance is reduced by 33%

Tooltips: Restored Onslaught System Tooltip when hovering over the UI panel. Sorry about that!

UI: Now all (almost?) abilities that have Status Effects will pop up a small info panel detailing the Status Effect. It's a bit clunky at the moment on Level Up screen, but we will redesign it in the upcoming update so that it won't be as ugly (yikes!).

[/olist]

Happy hunting!

Update 1.2.5 is live!

Greetings, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

We promised a short Beta for the update and we delivered! 1.2.5 is now LIVE!

This mini-update is packed with highly-anticipated improvements, new content, and fresh customization options to enhance your journey into darkness.

Art Style Update: A Fresh Look for All Our Villains

After previewing Rend Warbringers new look, were thrilled to reveal that all of our villains are getting a major visual update! Game Description Image

Here is our fan favourite Lord Cinderhell in action! Game Description Image

And here is his "cooler coleague" after the face-lift: Game Description Image

With enhanced details and a darker, more immersive style, each character now embodies the sinister energy that defines Undead Onslaught. Your feedback has been invaluable in this transformation, and we cant wait for you to see the revamped lineup!

New Feature: Shrine of Eternal Strife

At the start of each run, players can now interact with the Shrine of Eternal Strife to modify the difficulty of their journey. Game Description Image

This ancient and ominous shrine allows you to customize the intensity of your run by adjusting three key parameters:
Game Description Image

Onslaught Accumulation Increase the rate at which Onslaught Levels are gained, accelerating the intensity of the run.

Onslaught Level Set the starting and minimum Onslaught Level, ensuring a constant and challenging baseline of difficulty.

Madness Control the frequency of tougher, Blessed enemies. These elite foes drop increased rewards but present formidable challenges, demanding precise strategy and skill.

The Shrine of Eternal Strife taps into your collected Skulls resource to empower these adjustments. Skulls arent consumed by the shrine, but the more Skulls you invest, the stronger the shrines effects become. Each villain has their own capacity for how many Skulls they can harness, allowing for unique scaling of the shrines power based on their strength and experience.

Prepare for a run tailored to test the very limits of your villains power and adaptability!

New Passives: Customize Your Builds

In this update, weve added new passives to enhance your villain builds even further! With these fresh options, you can tweak your playstyle and strengthen your favorite abilities, making each run even more personalized and powerful. Game Description Image

Upgrade Scroll Improvements

Weve added more flexibility to Upgrade Scrolls! Now youll find even greater choices for enhancing your abilities and building unique, overpowered combos. We cant wait to see how you use these changes to unleash even more chaos! Game Description Image

Steam Features: Game Recording & Achievements

This update also brings some fantastic new Steam features:

Steam Game Recording: Capture your most intense battles and epic moments.
Steam Achievements: Unlock milestones as you progress and collect bragging rights along the way!

Tarro Card Cost Rebalance

The cost for upgrading Taro Cards are fully rebalanced and now scale up per purchased upgrade, while having their base costs reduced. This allows for vastly different results depending on the order you upgrade your Taro cards.

Save Slots!

You can now multiple save slots for the game! Manage your game progress and save slots in the main menu!

UI Improvements

Very UI improvements to make the information more user-friendly and easier to navigate through!

While we expect a super short Beta period, the team is already very hard at work on Update 1.3! The game is on Sale Now and is participating in Bullet Heaven Fest 2 !

Happy hunting!

With gratitude,
The Wish App Games Team
