Vanadius Version Archive
← Go back to the main game page
This is an archive of several versions of Vanadius for historical purposes. While it does not contain every version I have (there are way too many), I opted to include a good mix of versions that show how the game improved over time.
While you can download release versions from this page, I highly recommend downloading those from the itch.io page instead if you can. It saves on website bandwidth and you get access to itch.io's nice features!
Note: All the versions here are Windows builds (that work fine in Wine on Linux at the time of writing - 2025/8/24). Younger me didn't have the foresight to make native Linux builds.
Release Versions
| Version | Link | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Version 1.0.0 | Vanadius_v1.0.0.zip (9.4MB) | |
| Version 1.1.0 | Vanadius_v1.1.0.zip (9.4MB) | This version is extremely broken and crashes if developer tools aren't enabled. |
| Version 1.2.0 | Vanadius_v1.2.0.zip (16.2MB) | |
| Version 1.2.0 (Source Code) | Vanadius_v1.2.0_Source.zip (15.8MB) | This is a GameMaker Studio 2 project folder, not an executable. It's hit or miss whether or not Gamemaker will actually load the files. |
Beta Versions
| Version | Link | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Prototype | Vanadius_Prototype.zip (2.0MB) | This was the first thing I ever made in GameMaker, and is a proof of concept of very basic game mechanics. |
| PublicBuild8 | VanadiusPublicBuild8.zip (2.0MB) | This is the oldest version I could find on my computer of Vanadius proper. Even though it's called Public Build, it was never made public, only shared with close friends. |
| Version a0.1.1 | Vanadius_a0.1.1.zip (2.1MB) | |
| Version a0.5.3 | Vanadius_a0.5.3.zip (2.4MB) | |
