- Performance Update - 9 April 2026
Hi everyone,We are continuing the trend of improving the game based on your feedback. In this update, we have pushed a major fix for some of the performance issues new players were seeing. There was an issue with the way we were pre-compiling shaders on the loading screen that made it so ability VFX weren't pre-compiled, so they had to render the first time they ran, causing a significant lag spike.We've managed to pinpoint this issue and fix it, there should be no more lag spikes on the first use of an ability. If you still experience any please let us know! Best place to do that is our Discord.Next up we will be improving boss attack readability based on your feedback, stay tuned! Here are the full patch notes:Nullpoint Protocol v1.0.3Fixed stutters caused by rendering objects for the first timeCycles now begin with 50 credits by default.Fixed some achievements not being obtainable.Ev…
- Addressing your feedback V1.0.2 - 8 April 2026
Hi everyone,Thank you for all the feedback you've given us on the game, both positive and negative. We hear you. We are actively working on making the game better and live up to its potential. We have introduced some changes that will tackle some key areas of feedback: The issue: - The pacing of the game is too slow; there are too many events, rests, and shops compared to boss fights.What we've done: - We now guarantee a boss fight in the first cycle you go through. - We've also reduced the amount of shops, rests, and events in early cycles. This should get you into the action a lot quicker and not waste your time on shops and rests that don't meaningfully impact your game early on. The issue: - Boss attacks are unclear, hard to read and messyWhat we've done:We've tweaked the visibility of various elements of different boss fights. We know there is more work to be done here; we will get…
- Nullpoint Protocol v1.0.1 - 6 April 2026
Nullpoint Protocol v1.0.1This is a small update to address some post-launch issues. More assets are now pre-loaded during the initial loading screen. This should reduce stutters during gameplay when attacks occur for the first time.Player hit sound now has a cooldown.Updated status screen tutorial image.Reduced prices of items purchasable using VS Samples. If you are using the 595.97 Nvidia drivers on a new generation of graphics card (50XX series), you may get a strange graphical bug. If you downgrade to an older driver (anything in the 580s) it will solve this issue.The easiest way to downgrade your driver is to go to the Nvidia app > drivers > scroll down to previously installed and click the 3 dots to reinstall an older version.

- Announcing Nullpoint Protocol! - 7 August 2025
Hi! We are Everbloom Games, for the past 10 years we've been making hit DLC for Minecraft, including official Dungeons & Dragon's and Walt Disney World DLCs. Now we are making a move into indie game development with our first title: Nullpoint Protocol. Nullpoint Protocol is a 1-4 player co-op action roguelite where you face harbingers of the apocalypse in high-intensity boss fights that feel like an MMO raid. Craft your own class from randomized loot, master each boss fight, and save your species from extinction! Each boss unleashes complex attack patterns, which you must learn to read and dodge. Every run gives you another opportunity to hone your skills as you prepare to face the final boss. You're on a fixed timeline though, you'll need to make some bold choices throughout your run to make sure you are ready on time to face the final boss.To do so, you'll be rewarded with a selection…
