| Helltaker's Anniversary Update! | 2021-05-11 | https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E1HRCXOXIAQRFQG?format=jpg&name=large Added a new bonus chapter to the chapter select. You can go play it right now! Some people said my game was too hard, so I made all the action sequences skippable. However, you still need to win in the old-fashioned way if you want them sweet achievements. Updated the artbook to feature concepts from the new chapter and Beel stream sprites. The update is featuring some sweet new music from Mittsies. If you haven't already, buy the Helltaker OST on Mittsies' bandcamp to support the musician! New tracks are already added in. Just go play the update and let me know how horrible it |
| Helltaker Anniversary Stream and Lucifer Nendoroid. | 2021-05-03 | https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E0ddWH6WQAE9Pm9?format=jpg&name=medium It's already been a year since Beelzebub shared the Helltaker's story for the first time. Join me on my youtube on Monday, 10th May at 16:00 CEST, for the anniversary stream. I'll most likely do nothing but draw the fly girl all evening. People been requesting me to draw tiny dancing sprites for Beelzebub, since she's the only girl missing those. I'll will update the artbook to feature them on the next day. And don't worry if you miss the stream, I'll post the link to the archived vid on the next day as well. *** https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E0db8izWEAQTCFH?format=jpg&name=4096 |
| Helltaker nominated for Best Soundtrack | 2020-12-22 | Helltaker OST is nominated for the Best Soundtrack of 2020 Steam Award. A big thank you to everyone who voted to nominate, you made this possible! It makes me very happy to see Mittsies' music appreciated on this level. Regardless of whoever wins the award in the end, this is a glorious success! What more I can say? You can buy the Helltaker's OST on bandcamp if you want to directly support the artist responsible for those sweet tracks. Stay tuned for our future shenanigans. I hope we will have something nice to show you next year. Take care and have a great 2021! |
