- Brand new demo version! - 2 September 2026
Hey! I've been working so much on Blood Rush lately that I did not find the time to work on and update the game's demo, which is a shame since I added so much to the base game. (most of the new content won't be available in the demo, this is not the point) The game is getting better every month with new stuff added, both from my planning and from your suggestions (Marked with ✨ in the changelogs), important quality of life improvements, and changes left and right.From the last update, the elemental effects now affect the materials of your target :This allows you to keep an eye on the infused ennemies in a crowd with ease.The starting area of the game has been completely reworked visually because this was so ugly before. And it really made me feel bad that the left picture was the first thing you would see when playing for the very first time.The Vires vegetation has been completely redo…

- A not so small update after all - 17 August 2026
Hey Blood Rushers! Seams like I made a mistake, I planned to mostly work on UpGun and another project this last weeks but...I did but not as much as I maybe should have. I spent quite some time on Blood Rush too and what was supposed to be a really really tiny update turned into a really important one. This update doesn't bring any new gameplay mechanic or any new content however it improves so much other parts of the game.(also so many bug fixes)WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANTInfused foes will now have a new material layer applied to them. This will help a lot to distinguish infused foes from the crowd.This, I think, is a step in the right direction :)Changes marked with ✨ are community suggestions!Changes:Updated some camera shakes.✨The mine launcher mine's light is now colored with the current infusion.Added the Otium missing illustration in the codex!Mobs in the labyrinth are now spawning s…

Hello Blood Rushers ! This update will be on the smaller side since I'm planning on working a bit on UpGun this month, if you are not familiar with UpGun, this is my last game before Blood Rush, you can check it out here : The Blood Rush update will mainly focus on gameplay and visual improvements. Aim assist:I reworked the aim assist for a far better system. This allowed me to apply it with ease to the Blood Rush's weapons but the spells as well and more ! This now means that the explosion spell is may more forgiving, sometimes the explosion appeared behind the enemy you were aiming at because the ray cast missed the enemy hitbox. NO MORE !This is an exagerated example.The new system draws a cone of vision for a better accuracy.
