Hello, Villains of Undead Onslaught!

Between the new features and a lot of spilled blood (literally), we’re beyond excited to share what’s on the horizon for your villainous escapades. 🦹‍♂️

Let’s dive into the key highlights of Update 1.3!🎉

🎨Major Visual Overhaul: A Darker, Bloodier World Awaits

The lands you’ve ravaged are getting a stunning new look! We’re introducing a brand-new map with a fresh environment, enhanced visual effects, and yes—actual blood effects.

Now, as you vanquish your enemies, their blood will paint the battlefield in the name of the dark gods you serve—or simply your own twisted ambitions. Blood effects will fade over time, but as your Onslaught Level rises, the blood lingers longer, letting you paint the map in crimson glory.

Prepare for a world that’s not just more immersive but also a whole lot messier. >:)

😈Postponing the New Game Mode

We’ve thought long and hard about the new game mode we teased previously. Ultimately, we weren’t happy with how it turned out, and we’ve decided not to include it in this update.

Why?

It’s tough being an indie game dev without publisher support, but there’s one big upside: we aren’t forced to ship anything we don’t believe in. Releasing something we don’t find fun would be a disservice to you and our vision for the game. So, while it’s disappointing, we believe this is the right decision.

The good news?

Some features developed for the new mode are making their way into the standard map!

🗺️New Map Features

Minimap Improvements Navigation just got easier with a much-improved minimap, now clearer and more detailed.

Map Overlay Want a better look at your surroundings? A map overlay has been added for more strategic play.

P.S. This is still W.I.P, final version won't be as empty O.o

Obelisks*: Your New Best Friends

Two new types of Obelisks are being introduced to empower your runs:

Permanent Buff Obelisks

Small buffs that can stack endlessly to bolster your strength. Temporary Buff Obelisks

Offer short but powerful boosts, with effects and durations improved via Taro Card upgrades. Make the most of these new mechanics to unleash your inner villain!

*The actual name of the feature might change close to the release o.O

What’s Next?

That’s all for now, but we’re not done yet. Next up, we’ll reveal our brand-new playable villain coming in Update 1.3—the enigmatic Dark Ascendant! Stay tuned for a first look at his fiery power and ultimate destruction. Okay, okay, here's a sneak peak :3

As always, we’re incredibly grateful for your support. Your feedback, reviews, and villainous passion drive us to make Undead Onslaught the best it can be.

Until next time, keep the chaos alive and paint the world red (or darker shades of evil)!

With gratitude, The Wish App Games Team
