Hey Everyone, Excited to announce that two new achievements are now live!

Hey Everyone, Excited to announce that two new achievements are now live!

Hey Everyone, Excited to announce that two new achievements are now live! 1) Charged Hit: Trigger this by landing a fully charged attack against Medusa. 2) Beat Arcade Mode in a Minute or Less!: Exactly what it sounds like. If your existing best time is a minute or less, simply beat Arcade Mode (with any time) to trigger this achievement. And say goodbye to Perseus's sashaying South-facing run animation! I've replaced it with more of a black ops / commando shuffle instead. Let me know what you think--C&C appreciated! Thanks as always for your interest and support. Keep the feedback coming! - Dan from New Hell

Hi all, Pushed a fix that should resolve the "Perseus running in place" issue and improve gamepad support. When using a 360 type controller, make sure to set the D-pad to the d-pad controls on the input launch, and the joystick to the joystick spots. New Hell officially recommends using the d-pad. If you have a different controller and can't get the d-pad to set on the d-pad inputs, map each button (up, down, left, right) to the corresponding button slot for each direction. Please add us as a friend on steam or reach out via newhellstudios@gmail.com if you have any issues, we are happy to help! ~Drew from New Hell

Hi, Just added a new achievement for anyone who can beat our best time of 42,147 milliseconds! So far only 1 person in the world can claim this achievement! Good luck :) P.S. make sure you update Medusa first! ~Drew from New Hell

Hi, Pushed a new update, added an achievement for beating arcade mode! We saw a user left a really thoughtful review, but it sounded like he wanted some more competition on the leaderboards! I just spent the last half hour trying to set the new record for 10 HP, and with a lot of persistence and a little luck, just set the new best time, 00:42:14! Watch the run below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAQst_41VLs We are planning on adding a new achievement very soon, "Better than the Devs" for anyone who can beat my time. We hope to see more people competing on the leaderboards, and we are curious, what HP amounts would you like to see added to the Arcade Mode/leaderboard options? Was thinking 15 HP and 20HP might be good places to start but let me know your thoughts! ~Drew from New Hell

THANK YOU everyone who supported us during the Greenlight phase! New Hell Studios is proud to present Mausoleum of the Medusa. In the spirit of the season, we want you to turn out all the lights and immerse yourself in a truly frightening dungeon full of unspeakable things... This is our very first game, and we've been working hard for 2 years. Our objective was to make a free, simple, enjoyable game that would be competitively viable and aesthetically on point. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Love, Drew and Dan
