HandOfBlood enjoys playing crazy and new games on his YouTube channel. Now he is testing and praising a Steam hit that has already sold 1 million copies in just 2 weeks.
What action game is it about? The 3D roguelite, Megabonk, is currently hyped and was created by solo developer Vedinad. It strongly resembles genre representatives like Vampire Survivors, but with an additional dimension.
In Megabonk, you choose one of 20 characters and must slash through hordes of enemies with a variety of weapons, items, and upgrades. On Steam, the indie game costs €9.75 and has 94% positive reviews from over 15,000 ratings.
The developer chose one of the worst times to release Megabonk, because he launched his project on September 18, 2025, right between two of the most anticipated games.
In the video, you can see the trailer for Megabonk:
What does HandOfBlood say about Megabonk? In a new video on his YouTube channel, HandOfBlood played Megabonk. He himself says the following about the game: “Do you know what makes the game better than all other Survivor-likes since Vampire Survivors? Visuals and music.”
Additionally, he added chapters to his video and notes along with round 5 that he is addicted, and that after just a few runs. His viewers also love the game and comment on YouTube that they underestimated how good Megabonk really is and that they have already invested 14 hours within two days.

What does the developer say about his success? On X, the official account of the game posted an image with the headline: “ONE MILLION MEGABONK COPIES SOLD IN 2 WEEKS. THANK YOU, PEOPLE!! I am treating myself to spaghetti with EXTRA sauce today.”
Already after the game broke 30,000 players on Steam, the developer announced that he would eat “damn a lot of spaghetti” that evening. Now, after selling 1 million copies, he has earned extra sauce.
Originally, Vedinad wanted to release his roguelite on September 4, 2025. After it became known that the most wanted game on Steam, Hollow Knight: Silksong, would be released on that day, he, like many other developers, arranged for a different release date: Silksong is the GTA 6 of indie games: More and more developers change release dates out of fear of the most requested game on Steam
