Flaming skulls rains down, bathed in green hellfire. Putrid lava rises to consume a web-covered city. And somewhere, a pair of creepy twins are tick or treating.
Were excited to launch our Halloween update in time for your weekend parties!! The mean, green, halloween theme update introduces 10 new Halloween characters, gives Blockpocalypse a wicked look, and of course theres a giant pumpkin that crashes into the earth.
Blockpocalypse will be exclusively halloween themed for the next week!!
This update, while being for Halloween, is also serving as a technical test for our update pipeline. Weve used the opportunity to build some tools to help us get the themes together quickly, add characters and emotes, and lay the groundwork for future apocalypse updates.
Were also testing the SteamOS + Linus builds, so if you have a Steam machine or Linux, wed love to hear your feedback. It will be a little buggy as we track down the major differences in the platform and try to fix them, but for the most part its stable and working fine.
Blockpocalypse is a multiplayer party platformer about surviving with friends in the apocalypse…or at least outliving them. Fighting their way across the apocalyptic 2D landscape, up to 4 players must forge a path in the debris, using whatever they have at hand, including blocks, clocks and even a unicorn or two!
Escape the relentless dangers by working together, or simply be the last one left standing in this pixelated madness, whilst playing as one of a huge cast of hilarious characters. With a range of fun, furious and fast-paced party modes, including Block Ball and Elimination, and local and online multiplayer, the opportunities for chaos are endless.
Chaotic Gameplay – Can you escape, to stand victorious in the apocalypse, or will the ground burn up beneath your feet?
Multiplayer – Play with friends near and far with local and online multiplayer.
Party Modes – Battle it out to claim the Cake of Chaos, or work together to defeat your opponents in Block Ball.
Characters – Ever wondered whether a witch, a bear and a Spartan can put aside their differences to form the ultimate team? Time to find out!
Retro-inspired – This pixel platformer has a true spirit to games gone-by, whilst bringing itself up to date with quirky gameplay.
