Hey everyone,Last week we revealed what we've been working on for some time now: NIGHTFALL WAVES - a third-person tower defense and exploration game set in a mysterious archipelago. It also features cool gameplay/music sync & sarcastic narration which Ballhalla is infamous for! Check out the Steam page:You can play an early demo of the game right now! Your feedback at this stage is incredibly valuable and we'd love to hear it in the Steam forums or on our Discord!Cheers,Kai

Hello rhythmic ball gamers, I just pushed an update that hopefully fixes a random freeze issue that like 5 of you had since the last patch. It was seemingly caused by using a "newer" compiler (Visual Studio 2017) for that patch, even though that's the recommended one for the engine version used. I've since reverted back to the old compiler and that seems to have fixed it. Sorry for the inconvenience to those that encountered this issue and that it took so long to be fixed! Please let me know in case the issue should persist. Special thanks to Guddy, who provided logs & helped testing the fix!

Hey fellow music game lovers, Just a quick heads-up - our game CITY OF BEATS released earlier this week on Steam! It takes a lot of the design (like music elements & humor) from Ballhalla and mixes it with shooter & roguelite gameplay. Check it out here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1470390/City_of_Beats/ Cheers & have fun, Kai

Heya, can you believe it's already been 5 years since Ballhalla has launched on Steam? (I can't) While we're all busy working on our next game, I still put the time aside to work on a small update that fixes two issues: uploading a trial from the editor recently stopped working, but now you can again create & share your cool creations! the soundtrack download was broken after Steam changed to their new soundtrack system, this should be fixed as well But that's not all - here comes the hype part: Ballhalla Speedroller Challenge I've built two new workshop trials in the community editor - the to

Hey all! It's time to show you what we've been working on for quite a while now: City of Beats, a music-driven action game where every action is synced to the beat and your weapons shoot the melody. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11533517/d4d5c075f2c222f256e9fed0f7fa8f5d156f0fe1.gif After Ballhalla, we wanted to build on that rhythmic gameplay foundation, but go into a more action-oriented direction. Basically everything that glows red still wants to destroy you to the beat, but now you can shoot back and play cool melodies while doing so! Of course, sarcasm and puns are again all over this game.

It’s a very lighthearted game the alphas of which have had 90%+ ratings on Steam. The game is on Pre-Order th

Heya, I've just uploaded another small update. The editor now again properly sets the game exe path on first start. This didn't work recently, as the Rerolled update changed the game exe parent folder, so the editor couldn't find it. Happy rolling!

Hey guys, For those of you that have bought the Soundtrack DLC, I've just uploaded the 4 new tracks of the bonus levels that were added in the big update last week (for free, obviously). They make up about 14 minutes of sweet new music - as usual, composed by Nicholas Singer! The soundtrack now contains 78 minutes of music to remind you of your exploded balls. For those of you that haven't bought the Soundtrack DLC yet, it would really help Nick & me out a lot if you did. :) We're trying to get our next project going right now, so we can use every bit of help there. Thanks, and happy listening

Heya, Yesterday I pushed a small update that fixes two issues introduced with the Rerolled update: 1. The game no longer triggers your VR software on start. Not sure if that was an attempt of the game telling me "I want to have a VR mode and make everybody puke", but it's gone now. 2. In rush mode of trial 1-5, restarting during the final section will no longer break the warball spawners. That was a facepalm-worthy failed attempt from me to improve performance. Happy rolling!

I've teased this update for a long time, but now it's finally time to reroll the balls. Two years after the initial release, aligned with the game's release on PS4, Xbox One and Switch, here comes Ballhalla's biggest free content update to Steam! It contains new levels, styles, achievements, settings and tons of improvements and fixes. For existing players, the only downside is that your existing savegames won't work with the new game build. There are too many changes, both content-wise as well as in the engine, to keep them compatible. When starting the game, you can choose between the new an
