The Deep Darkness Update (1.9)

The deep darkness falls over the jungle! This October, the Deep Darkness Update (version 1.9) creeps out of the shadows and swallows the jungle whole. I have packed this spooktacular update with plenty of new and returning features just in time for the moonlight.

• New Sceneries: Darklands & Dark Forest
• Exclusive October Halloween Event: the returning Grim Reaper MonkeySkin & Profile Icon
• Custom Spooky Soundtrack: spooky versions of the Main, Versus and Boss themes
• Brand-new VFX Rendering Engine with improved performance on all devices
• Bug fixes & general stability improvements
• Steam Autumn Sale: 20% off Monkey Wave

Battle it out in the eerie new environments. Whether you are holding your ground in the Darklands or navigating the creeping shadows of the Dark Forest, the jungle has never looked this menacing.

Get into the spooky spirit! Throughout the entire month of October, you can unlock the exclusively returning Grim Reaper MonkeySkin and its matching Profile Icon. Participating in the event also grants you early access to the brand-new Dark Forest Scenery!

I have added an exclusive Spooky Soundtrack specifically for the Darklands and Dark Forest Sceneries. This sinister new soundtrack features three spooky variations of the Monkey Wave themes, perfectly tailored to keep your adrenaline pumping in the dark:

• Main Theme (Spooky)
• Versus Theme (Spooky)
• Boss Theme (Spooky)

If you want to bring the spooky vibes with you outside of the jungle, you can also listen to these chilling new tracks on your favorite music streaming services!

Under the hood, I have completely overhauled the visual effects. The new rendering engine allows splash effects to adapt dynamically to your scenery. Best of all, this optimization delivers significantly improved performance and smoother framerates across all devices!

As always, I have squashed some bugs and implemented general stability improvements to ensure your gameplay is smoother than ever.

To celebrate the arrival of Autumn and the release of this massive update, Monkey Wave is officially part of the Steam Autumn Sale! For a limited time, you can grab the game at a 20% discount. There has never been a better time to jump into the jungle or gift the game to a friend!
