The mapmaker contest at Frosty Fight Club has come to a close, drawing in ːsteamhappyːthousandsːUnicː of votes! The top three levels were neck and neck in ranking, showcasing exceptional quality. As a result, we've chosen to include all three on the curated workshop list. Without further ado, here are the three deserving winners.
Hi, This has been the first update since 2020 if we're not counting a small bug fix from last year. There are mostly some changes to make the game more future proof. Here is the full change list.
Fixed last Steam Deck compatibility issue (on-screen keyboard).
Moved from XNA to FNA on Windows.
Improved level select menu performance in cases of large numbers of workshop levels.
Improved loading times.
Bug fix where the first time play tutorial popup was not controllable by gamepad.
The Steam Game Festival (Autumn Edition) has just started, and tinyBuild is interested in learning your opinions about our fresh RAWMEN demo!
RAWMEN is a crazy multiplayer arena shooter where you battle with or against your friends (or foes) using lots of food-based weapons, from meat balls to bowls of hot chowder.
For those who play RAWMEN demo during the festival (until October 14) and take some time to fill in feedback survey, we have a nice surprise: a limited SpeedRunners-themed item: an epic burning HotHead glove!
The summer heat is on, and we at tinyBuild wanted to do something to brighten up your day. Today, SpeedRunners is going on a weeklong sale at 67% off.
We’ve been doing lots of interesting things recently, and I wanted to take the opportunity to highlight some of the things we’re working on.
Specifically, on August 13 (that’s next week!) we are launching Kill It With Fire - a physics comedy game about exterminating spiders and burning down your house in the process. It’s a very lighthearted game the alphas of which have had 90%+ ratings on Steam.
The game is on Pre-Order that allows you to save 10%, or you can simply Wishlist it! We greatly appreciate it.
We had an incredible PRE-PAX night full of announcements and mystery! I am writing this before the actual event happens, so I have no idea if we'll make it into cringe compilations yet. Fingers crossed!
If you're at PAXWest this weekend in Seattle, be sure to checkout our large booth right next to the Indie Megabooth. We have a very special Secret Neighbor and Graveyard Keeper sections, alongside your favorite Totally Reliable Delivery Service and the games listed above.
In case you're wondering, you will indeed be able to play Graveyard Keeper in an actual coffin.
A while ago Casper has been experimenting with bounce pads. With the workshop competition going on now we figured this would be a great time to make it available in the level editor. Casper made a demo map to showcase some ways you can use bounce pads. We're excited to see what you can come up with!
Today, we're introducing a whole new mechanic in the world of SpeedRunners, and we couldn't be more excited about it. Up until now, there have always been two main mechanics in the game; items and boost. In this update, we're adding a third - boostacokes! This iconic drink, as promoted by Speedrunner himself in New Rush City's famous nightclub, is able to change the whole dynamic of a match.
Here's how it works:
pick up boostacokes to increase your maximum speed
each boostacoke increases your speed by a few percent
collect up to 10 boostacokes in total
you drop a few boostacokes if you get hit by an explosionz
And that's not all! To test this new feature, we added a new official map with corresponding theme called 'Laboratory'.
Let us know in the comments below, on Discord or via Twitter what you think about the new map and mechanic. If you like how boostacokes change the dynamic of a match, we might add them into existing maps as well!
