Demonbyte – Version 1.0 Launch Update
Final Major Patch Notes
🚨 Critical Fixes
• Game-Breaking Bug Resolved (Level 12)
A major issue introduced in the previous patch prevented the Level 12 key from unlocking the progression door, blocking players from finishing the level. This has now been fully fixed. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and the delay in delivering this correction.
• Key Pickup Sound Restored
Collecting keys now correctly plays the standard pickup SFX, ensuring clear audio feedback when keys are obtained.
🔥 New Weapons
• Grenade Launcher (New Unplanned Weapon)
We decided Demonbyte needed one more explosive toy. The grenade launcher is now the most powerful weapon in the game, but comes with tradeoffs:
Self-damage potential
Fixed maximum grenade capacity We’ll let you figure out the safe distance... good luck.
• “Bee Be Gone” Spray Flamethrower (Secret Weapon)
You asked for ridiculous weapons—we delivered. This secret flamethrower features:
Infinite ammo
Unique gameplay mechanics
A hidden location (early or late in the game depending on how well you explore) We won’t make it easy to find, but a hint may appear near the end of your journey.
⚔️ Weapon Balancing
• Shovel Buffed
It’s hard being the Shovel King when your damage is trash. DPS increased from 44 → 126.
👾 New Enemies
Bees & Bee Hives (Demonic wasp-locust hybrids straight from hell)
Golden Skull Enemy
Low HP
Extremely high DPS
Projectile-only attack (do NOT let it hit you)
• New Final Boss Fight
SATAN – The Byte Owner Featuring unique mechanics and a chaotic final showdown.
