Metavoidal, providing 100% satisfaction* to cursed drummers everywhere!

Picked up the game? Why not leave a review telling us what you think of being damned to play drummers stuck in a death-filled loop in-search of salvation? ๐Ÿ“

If you haven't been completely corrupted by metal, of course

An image of a person sitting on snow, their back turned to us, wearing an orange high vis suit and fluffy ear muffs. They're holding a Steam Deck in their hands with the menu displaying Metavoidal on the screen. In the background is the research base in Antarctica with the South African Flag on the side.

๐Ÿ“ข Itโ€™s official!

Metavoidal is Steam Deck verified โœ…

The game not only plays like a dream on a controller, you can now take it with you wherever you'd want to battle The Bandโ„ข๏ธ

It's also the closest thing youโ€™re gonna get to a Switch port for the time being ๐Ÿ˜€

Maybe! At the moment we're aiming for releasing the soundtrack on Steam

I hear streaming platforms can be tedious to get onto, so maybe someone tackles it in the future!

As always, ping us on Discord/post something on Steam/send a carrier pigeon with any bugs or odd things you find in MV

Please. The devs are starting to get antsy with the lack of things coming in for them to fix. Soon they're going to start adding things just to break the game

Despite our attempts to turn the game off and on again, weโ€™ve had to resort to actually fixing bugs and tweaking quality of life things in the game ๐Ÿž

It's with deep sadness that we have to announce that METAVOIDAL on Xbox is delayed until next week

We're incredibly sorry to the players who're excited to jam on day 1, but there was no way around it ๐Ÿ˜”
