The full release is getting closer and we want to run a last test before that.
If you have been invited to the beta prior you can access the new beta branch.
Check the announcement channel of our discord for instructions.

Hello Swing Squad!

Here is the patch note for Swing Dunk ver.0.4.8.5

Bot

• Improved the bot AI's shoot and pass logic.
  ※ Since there is a problem with the current AI internal logic and is being reconstructed in general, the AI movement may look unstable after the update.
  AI logic will be continuously improved, so please understand.

UI

• When using a stamp, the time the used stamp is displayed on the head has been adjusted longer than before.

Shop

• Christmas event items have been added.

*Your reviews are much appreciated as they will contribute to increasing the player pool!

Please update the game before playing.

Thank you

Today's update brings new content & improvements.

New Features & Improvements:

Bug Fixes:

- Lighthouse course club sensitivity disables on holes where power shots are required.

- Several other small miscellaneous bugs have been fixed.



Would have liked to bring you an update sooner but will try harder for the next!


Thanks for playing & enjoy!

The Celestial Void is the final world in the Mage Drops adventure, and for those with the grit to make it this far it's worth the wait!
This is a radical shift from the gameplay of all the worlds before it, as you make a clean break from both the golf and the platforming paradigms, and instead slipstream around a gravity-free cosmic wonderland, towing asteroids, dodging flaming meteors and portalling the dodos to safety from their seemingly hopeless fate.

Removing banks from Streaming Assets.

- Banks should be copied when the game is being built.
