Steam Store Page: Vampire Survivor "Betting Lobby" DLC

This DLC adds 4 new clown characters, including everyone's favorite certified clown - Jimbo, whose ability is to increase the upgrade reward of the Survival Tarot Card to 4 times; the tragic clown in an oversized costume - Canio, whose ability is to trigger additional survivors.Tarot cards; Xico, the clown wearing a hat and bell, whose ability is to halve the boss's health and turn off their dangerous mechanisms; and finally, there is the short but passive clown-Pachio, whose ability is to have an inexhaustible pool of props.

The Betting Lobby will also add four new weapons and their evolutions: the Infernal Joker, which summons a flaming counter to incinerate your stupid enemies; the Big Mac Banana, which unleashes a volley of banana projectiles, each with a 1-in-6 chance of exploding for delicious critical damage; the Fibonacci Sparkling Water, which fires a spiral of bubbling destruction that showcases the beauty of mathematics and triggers your other weapons; and the Celestial Booster, which keeps planets and rockets orbiting you and deals extra damage based on your current wealth.In addition, there is a new game interface with new allies and a linkage song.

Not only that, this update also brings the long-awaited online cooperative mode.

Here are the gameplay mechanics of the online mode:

Batch Upgrade - Depending on the number of players, the upgrade interface will be displayed only after all players have completed the upgrade.For example, in a 4-player game, the upgrade interface will only be displayed every 4 levels.

DLC content - When playing online, it is only available if all players own the DLC.Since we are reconstructing the online mode for a stand-alone game originally written by an independent developer using JS, we need to avoid a lot of technical issues, including how to handle DLC expansion content.

Free exploration - In online mode, players are no longer limited to same-screen activities and can move freely in the map (Note: If any player enters the boss room, all members will be forcibly pulled in)

Spectator Mode - After death in a multiplayer game, you can switch to the perspective of the surviving player with the mouse to watch the battle.If resurrected while watching a battle, the spectator will be resurrected at the current location of the person being watched.

Achievements inheritance - After each game, you can choose to synchronize the achievements obtained in that game to your personal archive.

Acceleration function - disabled in online mode.

Pause menu - In order to maintain the smoothness of the game, the pause operation only makes you temporarily invincible and will not affect other players.
