TumbleSeed is a deceptively deep roguelike about balancing a seed up a dangerous and ever-changing mountain.

Avoid holes and defeat corrupted creatures in this dual-stick action adventure. Along your perilous trek you'll be forced to strategize, grow powerful with upgrades, and master the art of rolling to avoid the mountain's many dangers.

TumbleSeed features 5 procedurally generated worlds and over 30 unique seed powers. Top your personal best or compete with the world in the daily challenge. The mountain holds many surprises, secrets, and adventures waiting to be explored — see you on the slopes!

We've been hard at work making some new content that we think both new and old players will really enjoy, and now it's finally here! We're calling it the 4 Peaks Update. Here are the patch notes for version 2.0:

New Modes
Forest, Jungle, Desert, Snow mountains: Individually themed mountains that are the same every time you play. You can also complete quests that will unlock new auras for you to use! (more info below)
Weekly Challenge: Every Sunday a new mountain will be playable and you can replay it as many times as you want. Share strategies and tips with friends to optimize your score so all of you can race to the top of the Weekly leaderboard together!

General Changes
Added new achievements for beating new mountains!
Auras in the basecamp: Up to 12 auras can be unlocked that will be accessible in the fort in the basecamp. Unlock them by completing quests in the NEW Forest, Jungle, Desert, and Snow modes.
Daily and Weekly Challenge will have 4 of the 12 basecamp auras randomly spawn (regardless of unlock progress)
Removed teleporters from the game. You can still practice individual biomes in the new biome-specific mountains
You can remove an aura at the shrine near the top of a temple
Removed quests from Adventure Mode.
Tutorial now enters the Forest mode upon completion instead of Adventure mode.
Added rumble to XInput enabled controllers on Windows

Balance Changes

Added 8 new auras:
Power Copter: Increases bounce height and slows descent speed
Timestretch: Increases duration of time-based abilities

Vampire aura now gives you some crystals back when killing 2 and 3 HP enemies

Seed Powers:
Bounceberry: launch height decreased back to previous value

Enemies:
Banana Snakes and Purple flyers now have a slight variance in speed when chasing you
