Project Update #21: Surveys are coming soon & Wishlist our game Pathfinder: Gallowspire Survivors on Steam!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Jul 14, 2023 at 11:16:04 AM

Dear Abomination Vaults Community,

First of all, we want to thank you for your support on our pre-order page.

We’ll start sending out our first surveys soon, it will help us organize your pledge rewards adequately, with questions such as your Discord username, preferred t-shirt size, and more. Keep an eye on your inbox!

Pathfinder: Gallowspire Survivors

We're proud to showcase our Pathfinder: Gallowspire Survivors game, which we've been working on for some time. The game is a roguelite bullet hell survivor game arriving on PC later this year. This game takes inspiration from the Roguelite genre to create a fresh new experience set in the Pathfinder universe. It is completely different from Abomination Vaults, and we hope these two games will introduce the ever-expanding Pathfinder universe to a wider range of players and provide an opportunity for new people to join the existing community.

In Pathfinder: Gallowspire Survivors, players battle through Gallowspire, the legendary Pathfinder setting, as one of three heroes — and alongside, an ally of their choosing — until they face the Whispering Tyrant who awaits within. To get there, they must slay hordes of enemies, collect and upgrade an arsenal of powerful spells and weapons, and overcome deadly bosses — while growing stronger with each attempt.

Project Update #18: Wardrobe System Unlocked & New Kyra Miniature & Game Design details!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Jun 26, 2023 at 12:11:14 PM

Dear backers,

Another Stretch Goal is unlocked thanks to you: Alternative Wardrobe and Outfit System!

Amelia Candlebright can fix up her grandmother's tailoring shop in town and offer bespoke tailoring and aesthetic options. Defeat enemies to collect rare dyes and fabrics which can be used to style up your hero. Because at the end of the day, we all know what adventuring is really about: Fashion!

Next up is: Runesmithing System & Kargas' Runeforge. Blacksmith Kargas Featherstone offers a quest to recover ancient runes, which he can use to customize your weapons and armor.

New Stretch Goal revealed: The Dragon Ravirex Boss

We’re happy to reveal the next Stretch Goal too!The terrifying dragon Ravirex winds his ways through the passages of the Abomination Vaults, feasting on its inhabitants and doing as he pleases. With this new optional boss, Ravirex will show his scaly face in the vaults. Defeating him isn't necessary for saving the day -- but reaching his vault of treasures could give the heroes new ways of destroying their enemies. And of course, dragon parts DO have many applications.

New Kyra miniature revealed!

Today we present to you the Kyra the Cleric miniature. With the power of Sarenrae at her disposal and an unflinching courage to face any evil in the name of life and light, Kyra ventures toward Gauntlight to protect her allies and dispatch the wretched creature who awaits within. All four iconics figurines have now been revealed!

Would you like to have these collectibles? Exclusive game miniatures can be obtained randomly via our Collector’s boxes and you can get extras to complete your collection with the Add-ons!

A bit more info about characters customization

Let’s talk about character customization a bit. As you know, in Pathfinder: Abomination Vaults, each character's progression can be tailored to create different playstyles and team compositions. You can customize your hero on who YOU want them to be.

Ezren, Kyra, Harsk and Amiri will  feature a fully unique selection of feats that lets you tailor how you want to play in very different ways. Based on the feats you choose, for example, Harsk the dwarven ranger could become a tough melee fighter, a deadly crossbow expert or even a beastmaster with powerful animal companions. You may also want to mix and match from any of these paths to create your own version of Harsk. Your feat investments could be changed in the town of Otari  -- we really do want you to be able to try out different play styles and moves without needing to start the game over.

You'll also be finding different weapons and items to wield while exploring the dungeon. These items are balanced against each other, so they're all interesting choices that tune your character differently. Leveling up will be in town and will happen after chapter completion.You might be able to further customize their characters equipment and appearance through some services available in town.

A bit more info on loot drops

Let’s go over Loot drops also. Our vision is to remain simple and thoughtful. Abomination Vaults is not focused on randomized loot drops, so the placement of loot is envisioned to be intentional. For example, finding a certain weapon in a boss's treasure trove, getting a powerful new item after completing a quest for someone in town, or finding a new weapon in a secret treasure room that you've discovered by examining the dungeon carefully. We might consider randomizing what loot appears at key spots throughout the game, but ultimately we want to go with what ends up feeling best via testing. Stay tuned! :)
