Sphere Fight – Odysseus Update is Live
You can now play all game modes with a friend on one PC. With Steam Remote Play, you can also play online with one of your Steam friends.
In addition to the cooperative modes, you can compete against each other in the "Best of 5" Versus mode in all arenas. In this PvP mode, you arm yourself using pressure plates scattered throughout the arena. The focus is on fast-paced fun and a healthy mix of skill and luck.
You are able to conquer a new arena and then face a boss who doesn't quite follow the rules of his predecessors. He will probably put you in your place, but with a little practice you will emerge victorious from the fight.
You can now combine different power-ups as you like to create the perfect setup for your playstyle.
In addition to a new amplifier, there are three new passive abilities that will greatly assist you on your journey. To help you distinguish your sphere, especially in multiplayer, there are now several skins to customize your appearance.
By popular demand, there is now an expert mode. In this mode, you'll face your opponents unarmed, without a time limit. Skill and, above all, a good character build are crucial for success.
Besides the campaign, the other game modes now also have a target score. With a newly introduced scoring system, you can try to achieve the target score in each game mode. Instead of a "Fail," you'll receive feedback on how well or poorly you performed.
The existing leaderboards have been expanded with a new one that saves your combined scores.
Added local co-op: Campaign arenas after the tutorial can now be played together on the same computer using a keyboard and gamepad. Added 4 new "Synergy" powerups: Powerups can now be combined into powerful Synergy powerups. Added "Wrath of the Gods": A powerful new powerup that summons meteors to destroy enemies and damage bosses. Added "Expert" mode: A new endless game mode where powerups cannot be used. Added a new Arena and final boss: The final boss comes with unique mechanics. Added player skins: Some skins are unique and ignore color selection, while others can be customized. Added a Prestige Ranking: Keep your High Scores and Achievements while restarting your progression from the beginning. Added 3 new passive buffs. Added 3-star ratings: All game modes except Campaign now offer a 3-star rating system. Added level selection: Levels can now be selected directly from the in-game menu. Orthographic camera improvements: The camera automatically zooms out as far as necessary for each arena without overriding your saved zoom level. Armory improvements: The Armory now provides visual feedback for your current power-up level. Balance changes: Apocalypse Laser now damages players in Boss Fights and Versus Mode. Defense Cannon has also been rebalanced, with a longer cooldown and a maximum of 5 targets at once.
