![]() This progression mode is included primarily because the aforementioned people who developed this mode include those masochists in question.īut that’s not all! The team has a bunch of ideas for new features in the works including a Saved State mode where you can have the game remember your exact state (health level, different items, location, etc.) and let you practice running the same section over and over until you perfect your approach. If you don’t know that you’re one of them, you’re probably not. As of right now, there are exactly 4 people in the world able to play this mode. “Masochist” mode is similar to Advanced mode, except that it assumes you’ll be doing a low % speedrun. Because the system knows what you expect to be able to get at which areas, it can make sure to accommodate this route. There are ways to skip the entire grapple hook area, for example, if you know how. “Advanced” mode assumes that you’ll play through the game the way a speedrunner familiar with exploiting certain glitches may go through it. For what it’s worth, this is the mode I play. Beginner mode assumes that you will be playing through the game in much the same way that anyone would progress through it. The Randomizer itself is for people who have beaten the game, ideally multiple times, and have explored the map very thoroughly. “Beginner” progression mode is really a bit of a misnomer. From there, you’ll be able to select between the standard and beta versions from the dropdown list. ![]() and you’re good to go.įor Steam, just find Axiom Verge in your Steam library, right click it, and go to Betas. The beta version, which includes the new mode, will appear in your library as a separate game. Once we get all of the kinks worked out, we’ll release it for free on consoles.įor the Epic Games Store, simply check your library. Right now it’s only available on the Epic Games Store and Steam. Let’s start with how you can get it, since that’s the easy part. Please note that there are some minor spoilers ahead, so if you haven’t beaten the game yet, first of all, how dare you, and second of all, the Randomizer Mode isn’t really for you. It was a labor of love, and I’m hugely grateful to all of them. They spent years working on this and refused any compensation I offered. Along with Pozzum, the original mod developer, they came up with an unofficial version that required a legal copy of the game to use and have since worked with me to incorporate it into the game as an official mode of the game. So where did this mode come from? Our amazing speedrunning community! In particular, I’d like to give a huge shout out to NoReset Games, Chris Couture (aka VideoGameRoulette), Dimitrios Lianopoulos (GVirus), Mark Rawls (Willow), Lars Lehmann (Leemyy), and Crowd Controls Matthew Jakubowski (Jaku) for all of the work they put into this. After all, I’ve been so focused on Axiom Verge 2 that I haven’t really had a chance to do anything new with Axiom Verge 1. This is all about Axiom Verge 1’s first ever free content update: Randomizer Mode.īefore I go into detail about what it is and how it works, I need to mention how it came to be. ![]() I’m putting on the finishing touches for that and will be talking about it more soon, but this post is not about that. A few months after Axiom Verge launched almost 6 years ago, I turned all of my focus to Axiom Verge 2.
