From tweaking existing mechanics to building entirely new experiences, modders breathe fresh life into our beloved games. Today, we spotlight modder TattersTheBat (AKA Tatters) whose journey from coding novice to featured creator is sure to inspire those interested in game modification. Let's dive into the world of Crypt of the NecroDancer's Biodiversity Plus and meet the talent behind it! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6005263/7d84f0f59efc017d4ccdff12d3d1aee20c7db67b.jpg Can you tell us how you got started with modding? What kind of projects have you worked on previously? Synchrony, back when it was a standalone fan project, was actually my first experience modding games; I didn’t even know lua when I started, or really any other code-related stuff. I started by following the helpful tutorials that were provided in Synchrony’s discord server, and from there I kept letting my ideas flow and asked for help as needed until I could, eventually, comfortably code and understand things for modding the game on my own. The only other coding experience I had was some light block coding I had done for a while through school, and the beginnings of C in college. It was a totally blank slate for me when it comes to modding, though! Specifically, what drew you to modding Crypt of the NecroDancer? Ever since I picked up Crypt of the NecroDancer, I fell in love with the game. There’s something very satisfying about fighting and moving to the beat, and as I got better with it, I was completely hooked - even before I got the Amplified DLC. I also really enjoy the game’s world - a setting that blends fantasy and reality in a really smooth way. It opened up a lot of potential for new content, and when I eventually caught wind of the Synchrony fan project, I just knew I had to learn the modding API and put my own creative spin on my favorite game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6005263/e8493d184e764667acbcc97d431594a04768be3a.jpg Can you walk us through the inspiration behind Biodiversity Plus? What was the idea that sparked it? I feel like for one reason or another, I’m always drawn to games that have a wide cast of different enemies. Even if it’s the same things you’re fighting throughout hundreds of runs in a dungeon crawler like NecroDancer, it just adds so much to a game when those monsters have that little bit of extra variety and personality. I already really like NecroDancer’s enemy cast, from the skeletons, to the wild animals, to the fantasy creatures all over the place, and I wanted to expand upon it! At first it was just some extra tiers of existing enemies, but then I started getting ideas for entirely new ones, and from then on it blossomed into a large group of new monsters blended in with those of the base game’s roster. Did you face any specific challenges while creating your mod? I’m honestly a bit surprised that I went for a mod like this as one of my earliest projects. It was only shortly after Synchrony came out as DLC ...Crypt of the NecroDancer v4.0.0Mar 13, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsCrypt of the NecroDancer v4.0.0 is now available!

Hey NecroDancers! There have been a few requests for an option to reduce/disable co-op enemies, so we've added a "co-op enemy spawn rate" slider to the Custom Rules menu that allows lobby hosts to increase or decrease the number of co-op enemies. It also turned out that Skittish Blademasters were a bit trickier to hit in online multiplayer than intended, since network latency can cause some lunges to be delayed by enough time that the player "catching" the Blademaster has a much shorter time window to react during the cooldown, often getting hit instead. We added an extra beat of vulnerability after the counterattack to fix that, so go get 'em! Additionally, we've fixed a bunch of smaller UI/engine issues that have been reported to us since v3.5.0's launch. Enjoy, and good luck out there!

Hey there NecroDancers! Grab a friend because we have a bunch of changes to how co-op works. Specifically, we've added new co-op enemies! No more shall you faceroll through the zones as a pod of death. You'll need to watch each other's backs going forward because these new enemies can't be killed alone. There's a bunch of other changes and fixes too, so take a look at the patch notes for all the details. Good luck out there! New enemies {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6005263/09445ef6b87c3ca440e01cdcbc71d2a70b168ab4.png Added 6 new enemies to co-op mode in the SYNCHRONY DLC! Jockey: Grabs players like a monkey, but only inhibits their attacks while still allowing them to move around. The Jockey does not take damage from the player it's grabbing, and another player must come to help! Phantom: Chooses a specific player to follow around like a Ghost, but can only be hit by other players! The Phantom's target can push it away briefly, but cannot inflict damage to it or kill it normally. Granite Golem: An extremely thick-skinned Golem, invincible against most normal attacks. Only takes damage when hit by two players simultaneously. Work together to defeat it! Wisp: A spirit that appears near groups of players travelling together. Dodges the first hit by teleporting behind the back of another nearby player! Skittish Blademaster: Parries incoming hits, but lunges away instead of counter-attacking. Protectorc (AMPLIFIED DLC only): A very well-protected Orc wielding three shields instead of one, blocking attacks from the front and sides. Chooses a specific player to follow, requiring any other player to strike at the Orc's unprotected backside.
