- Patch 1.2.0 - New Unlocks - 31 August 2026
Hey Lunar Knights,A new patch has come to Bloodmoon Survivors, and with it I've added a new character and more weapons to the main game. They can be unlocked by beating each level on the difficulty 4.Note: Players that have already completed Difficulty 4 on every stage will need to re-beat it to unlock the new content. New CharacterThe new character introduces Kaelis, the oldest and youngest knight of the Lunar order. He has just recently been initiated into their ranks, and yet, with his mastery of the temporal arts, he is also paradoxically the true founder of the knights and Eremin's mentor. He controls time itself to combat the horrors of the moon.New WeaponsThis patch introduces 4 new weapons into the lunar arsenal 2 melee, 2 projectile. I'm excited to have players give them a whirl.Scythe - A farmer's tool turned weapon in the hands of a Lunar knight. This weapon sweeps through en…
- Patch 1.1.5 - Evolution Codex - 15 August 2026
Evolution CodexNew to this patch is the Evolution Codex. While in run, if you press Pause > Evolution Codex you can see a list of all of the evolutions you have discovered and the combinations that make them. If you discover a new evolution, it will be revealed on the codex permanently. Currently the codex will only be available in the pause menu, but in future patches I will make it more readily available in locations where the information would be beneficial to players. Stay tuned!Bug FixesAdded the ability to navigate menus with the Right-Thumbstick with a controller. Note: this change requires you go to Options > Gameplay > Key bindings > Reset. This is unfortunately but if you would like this feature, this is required. You can then reconfigure the key bindings any way you wish Scroll bar: Fixed a bug where selecting a powerup or upgrade and then scrolling sometimes got the scrollba…
- Hotfix - Music Restored - 14 August 2026
Small issue with the last build was inhibiting music from playing on levels. Unfortunate regression, but music should now be restored.

- Patch 1.1.3 - 10 August 2026
A new Patch has come to Bloodmoon Survivors to do a little bit of balancing for powerups and some other small bugs!PowerupsSplit shot: Reworked this powerup a little bit as it seems to be a mandatory pick for players at the moment.I reworked the first level of split shot so that the second projectile fires backwards instead of forward. This fixes the problem where players needed to aim off-center to land a hit until they gained a third projectileI reduced the maximum number of projectiles it adds from 4 > 3Please let me know what you think of this change. I intend to monitor it closely to observe its impact on gameplayHellfire: Changed the color of the attack telegraph from orange which players confused with enemy attacks to a warmer gold color to signify it is the player's attack.Flying Daggers:Buffed Flying Daggers to spawn 2 right away instead of 1Fixed a bug where the Size increase…
- Patch 1.1.2 + Public Experimental Beta Branch - 8 August 2026
Patch NotesA new patch has come to Bloodmoon Survivors. The focus of this fix is to improve the gameplay experience for players before starting to tinker with the balance and new features I want to add into the game. This change features a change to controls so I will be monitoring it closely, please let me know if you find any bugs in the discussion forums. I want to make sure I can jump on them as quickly as possible6 New Achievements! - I added achievements for reaching max stacks with powerups that give players permanent extra damage. It's a fun little mini-game to play mid-run that I wanted to encourage players to try!Added new Cursor Size Slider under Options > Gameplay - I noticed players sometimes struggling to find the reticle when playing with aiming enabled. This should let them set the cursor size to whatever works best for themAdd toggle to disable pointer influence under O…
- Patch 1.1.1 - Controller Update - 6 August 2026
Auto-Aim/Auto-Attack OverrideAuto-Aim + Auto-Attack players now have the option to override the Auto-attack by holding down the attack button. This makes the cursor appear and they can take manual control over their aiming to get out of tricky situations. I noticed that players using auto-aim/auto-attack would occasionally get swarmed by enemies while needing to take down high priority targets in the backline. When this happens they would want to keep firing at the farther target while putting some distance between them. Auto-Aim prioritizes targeting the closest enemies so now players can override this behavior while fighting.Controller Powerup Select Focus-FlickerFixed a bug with focus-flicker when controller-users leveled up. There was an issue with controller-users where I noticed players would keep holding their thumbstick in the direction they were moving when the level up screen…

- Hotfix 1.0.1 - 4 August 2026
Small hotfix to the Rust Sands (level 2) difficulty 1. Defeating the boss on the first difficulty now unlocks level 3. You do not need to replay the level at higher difficulties to unlock the next level. P.S - If you have beaten level 2 difficulty 1 you will need to repeat it to unlock level 3. However, the final boss is now different ;)
