Today we're releasing a huge update for TowerFall that includes a brand new level editor and Steam Workshop support. The editor is a powerful tool that allows you to create and share your own personal Versus Towers! We're super excited to see what you create :) These updates are free, but require the Dark World Expansion to play.
Here's the full changes:
New Stuff:
Added the Workshop! Create, share, and play your own custom Towers for Versus mode. Requires the Dark World Expansion.
New stage element available for custom levels: Chalice platforms
New variant added: Infinite Brambles
Added new sound effects for:
Miracle Grabs: Catching an arrow and then immediately cancelling your dodge
Dodge Stall Grabs: Catching an arrow by holding the dodge button to extend your dodge time
Changes:
Players now bounce when they drop orbs by touching them, regardless of where they collided with the orb
Reduced the volume of proximity block sounds
The keyboard config menu now accepts the “OemPipe” key
Keyboard inputs now have numbered names on character select screen ("Keyboard 1", "Keyboard 2", etc)
[strike]This update is currently only available on Windows - but Mac and Linux support are coming very soon! I'll edit this post when they're available.[/strike] This update was originally only available for Windows, but now Mac and Linux support have been added!
Thanks for your support!

TowerFall Ascension is the definitive version of the hit archery combat game. Inspired by classics from the golden age of couch multiplayer, it's a 4-player local party game centering around hilarious, intense versus matches. The core mechanics are simple and accessible, but hard to master and combat is fierce. Loot treasure chests for game-changing power-ups, master the art of catching arrows out of the air, or descend on your foes and stomp them into submission. TowerFall is best played competitively with friends, cross-legged on the floor within punching distance of each other.
New in Ascension is the 1- or 2-player co-op Quest mode. Players work together, fighting off a variety of monsters and enemy archers across the land of TowerFall. It's a new adventure to explore when you don't have more friends handy to square off against.
New features in TowerFall Ascension include:
Brand new 1- or 2-player co-op Quest mode
50 additional Versus arenas, for a total of 120 unique maps
More game-changing power-ups, such as Drill Arrows that burrow through walls
4 new unlockable, playable archers, for a total of 8
A huge list of variants to customize your matches - a total of 75 ways to mix things up
Plenty of hidden secrets and surprises to discover with your friends
