Hello Triangles!
Today we're excited to announce that Void Sols is Steam Deck verified! We've also just rolled out our first major patch, 1.5.2.1. We've added quite a few new features, gameplay changes, community bug fixes, and some more weapon balance changes.



Full patch notes, see below:
New FeaturesApex Horn Statue does something now…
Frying Pan has a new secret synergy…
Equipping items play unique sounds!
All equipment that is picked up should now display a new item icon on the equipment button until hovered over by the player
Gameplay ChangesParrying Shield now parries whenever you release the button. Previously you could only tap to parry, meaning holding it did nothing. You can still tap to parry as before, but now you can also hold to ready the parry and release, allowing a bit more depth to parrying gameplay and not punishing the player for holding the button for a bit too long
Cold Debuff: This was previously dealing entirely too much damage to enemies. We have enough damage-dealing status effects, so we decided to rework this status effect into something that has a different kind of utility. Triggering cold on yourself has been unchanged, you still take a chunk of non-fatal damage, and have your stamina regeneration reduced. If an enemy is affected by cold however, they take stance damage, reduced move speed, and their stance will no longer regenerate until the status depletes.
The Codebearer puzzle should be a little easier now…

Balance Changes

Primary WeaponsGreat Hammer Heavy Attack Stance Multiplier
Original: 2
Updated: 1.5
Halberd Heavy Attack Stance Multiplier
Original: 2
Updated: 1.75
Halberd Light Attack no longer pushes you back, instead advances you forward
Other Halberd attacks have increased forward momentum, generally increasing reach of this weapon
Halberd Light Attack hitbox improvements
Frying Pan Base Damage
Original: 10
Updated: 8
Frying Pan Heavy Attack Damage Multiplier
Original: 1
Updated: 1.25
Frying Pan Base Stance Damage
Original: 15
Updated: 9
Pickaxe Base Stance
Original: 30
Updated: 20
Pickaxe Light Attack Stance Multiplier
Original: 0.5
Updated: 1
Note: While the base stance on the pickaxe has been lowered, the basic light attack has been doing 15 stance due to this multiplier. This was confusing because the game would communicate the pickaxe as having 30 stance damage when it was actually doing 15 per light attack. This change makes the UI actually align with the amount of stance the pickaxe does while giving it a minor buff
Katana now additionally scales on SPD, starting at E
Katana damage shown in stats better matches actual damage output
Katana attacks have increased mobility to lean into the power fantasy
Katana Global Damage Multiplier
Original: 1
Updated: 1.25
Dual Handaxe Global Damage Multiplier
Original: 0.75
Updated: 1
Dual Handaxe Combo Attack Damage & Stance Modifier
Original: 1
Updated: 1.25
Dual Handaxe Damage Scaling
Original: SPD: D, DEX: E

Gauntlets Light Attack Stamina Consumption

Scythe Heavy Attack Damage Multiplier
Original: 2
Updated: 2.5
Sword Base Damage
Original: 4
Updated: 7
Sword Global Damage Multiplier
Original: 1
Updated: 0.75
Note: We felt like the sword DPS gets out of hand by the end game, with its strong scaling on both dexterity and strength. This change does not affect the early game experience of using the sword, while slightly reducing the long term DPS of the weapon
Secondary WeaponsCrossbow Stamina Consumed Per Second
Original: 30
Updated: 20
ArtifactsBismuth Claw has a secret debuff that was meant to be a little easter egg, but was way out of balance. This has been reduced to not punish players for not noticing this debuff.
