We know you have been waiting for quite some time. Relics of the Past released on Christmas of 2019, just over 5 years ago. Not to mince words, but it's been an eventful half-decade. While that's been going on, we've been quietly (or loudly, if you've been following our Social Media or in the Discord) working away on the game.
Nonetheless, it's finally time.
Star of Providence will be dropping on the Nintendo Switch on February 20th, 2025. At the same time, Steam will get everything new in the form of the Minor Content Update, Into Oblivion.
Here's what you can expect to find once it's out:
2 new upgrades.
1 new playable character.
5 new normal enemies.
More new bosses than enemies for some reason.
13 new unique weapons.
20 new cartridges.
43 new keywords (including those exclusive to Skully and Unique weapons).
A nearly complete rework of the loop mechanic, including capping it to a maximum loop of 13.
A nearly complete rework of the Skully playable "ship".
Face the Gauntlet, a new sub-branch which appears on late-game floors and offers valuable rewards in exchange for defeating esoteric challenges.
"Boss" "Rushes".
Hundreds of new room layouts, featuring a variety of new hazards and gimmicks.
Massive balance changes, visual improvements, and performance optimizations across the whole game.
The unknown diminishes, ever so slightly.
And more...?
Hm, that's a lot actually. If even a fraction of this is true...
