Hey everyone!

As promised, here is the first content update: an end-game endless mode.
To access it, you'll have to beat the final boss. The items and and weapons you've beaten the boss with will carry on into the new mode.

If you have any feedback, let me know in the steam discussions or the discord.
Next update will feature new weapons, events and items!

Hey everyone! First off, so happy with the release (no game-breaking bugs, phew), congrats to the 2 people that already managed to beat the final boss (Megatherium and 莫笑笙歌)!

I'm currently making an end-game mode that will make things even more interesting once you beat the final encouter: An endless mode in which you fight as long as you can with the loot you've accumulated previously.

This will spice things up as you'll be able to "hunt" for the best loot in the base game and then battle to the death in an incredibly intense mode.
Along with that, will also be adding new weapons and events.
The update will drop right on time for the week-end!

Have a great day <3

Hey everyone! Ether Loop is now available for purchase and download, and will be running a discount launch for a week. Have fun and enjoy!

If you encounter any issues or have feedback, you can post it in the steam discussions or in this Discord[discord.gg]. I will do my best to fix any issues quickly and listen to feedback!

Hey Everyone! Release date is approaching very quickly, next Tuesday at 10 am PST. I think this is the perfect time to give you guys some info on how things will unfold post-release.

I've very recently added leaderboards rankings for the time taken to beat each boss, if you're interested in speedrunning or just competing with your friends you'll like this feature a lot! Could lead to adding a game mode geared towards that if the community enjoys it.

I created a discord today, make sure to join if you have questions, want to provide feedback after release or participate in future events:

As to what's planned right after release, which can change depending on community feedback:

- New weapons, items and random encounters
- The addition of a "cursed" modifier to weapons and items
- Release on Mac
- A new game mode?
- And more!

Have a great weekend =)
