Hey everyone, the Summer Sale is here again and Volcanoids is joining the annual wallet massacre with a 25% discount! I know that many of you already own the game and in that case, now's a great time to recruit friends for your crew so you can commandeer drillships, survive eruptions, bathe in lava and fight robots together.
Latest major update
For anybody checking our progress after a long time, the most recent major update was the Co-op Update released on May 20 (roughly a month ago). This update added the highly requested co-op multiplayer, new devices, new items, and some QOL improvements. If this update flew under your radar, check out the trailer below.

Cool, what's next?
When going through your feedback after the Co-op Update we agreed that the thing that needs the most attention right now is combat in general. So the next major update is going to revolve around that. Here are some sneak peeks of what's coming. Disclaimer: everything you'll see below is a work in progress
New enemy units
Friendly and not so friendly.
Default unit visual overhaul
New look, new guns.
Player will get some love too, don't worry
New weapons, new and improved first-person animations and more player-related goodies are in the pipeline as well. There aren't many sneak peeks of this right now but once we have something, we'll share it on our social media channels, so keep your eyes peeled there.
