Hello shredders,

We hope you are all enjoying Glacier 🧊 and Shredding it to pieces.

We are super happy to announce that this new update brings AMD FSR3.1 to Shredders across all platforms.

This allows the game to run at roughly 25% higher frame rates with the same quality settings, especially on resolutions above 1080p, up to 4k. You can activate FSR 3.1 in the game options.

This update also contains a few bug fixes reported by the community in the last weeks.

Enjoy and have fun on the slopes,

The Shredders team

Hi!

First, we would like to thank you for being part of this amazing community! We are excited to announce that Update 1.2 is now available!


To summarize, this is the 12th update since the game's release. Over the course of these updates, we’ve improved and fixed more than 150 issues! The game is now better optimized, more balanced, has fixed bugs, and features new additions. We invite you to start your adventure in the world of Moon Mystery alongside Toby!



You can now play using a gamepad! While this is partial controller support, as the game was originally designed for mouse and keyboard and is best played with them, the entire game is still fully playable from start to finish with a controller. Remember, you can enable or disable aim assist for controllers in the settings at any time!



Based on your feedback and extensive playtesting, we’ve made many small tweaks to the game, including adjustments to:

1. Ammunition
   
2. Damage (for both players and enemies)
   
3. Health (for both players and enemies)
   
4. Stamina

These minor improvements across the board have enhanced the overall experience, making the game feel more balanced and enjoyable!


We did another fix for attachments. Some achievements, which were particularly tricky to address as they affected only a very small number of players, have been temporarily hidden to ensure that everyone can fully enjoy unlocking achievements. Thank you for your understanding and continued support!



We’ve also made numerous improvements to the game’s translations. Lines that were previously untranslated are now fully translated, and we’ve refined existing translations to make them sound more natural and polished.

• Fixed a crash on the submarine level (additional patch applied).
  
  
• Resolved an issue where objects couldn't be picked up with the scanner equipped.
  
  
• Fixed a strange behavior when pausing the game during anomalies while driving the sedan.
  
  
• Corrected human banners appearing in the background of the robot city.
  
  
• Addressed a visual bug in the underwater base when controlling a missile.
  
  
• Fixed life bar not decreasing initially when shooting the machine gun turret.
  
  
• Removed an unfairly placed drone on the ice planet near the sliding big ice rock.
  
  
• Fixed an invisible wall on the ice planet.
  
  
• Enlarged the final door in the last ice planet puzzle to fit properly.
  
  
• Fixed incorrect icons for gamepad graphics in settings; RS and LS were swapped.
  
  
• Resolved a bad single frame appearing in the final cutscene.
  
  
• Fixed the "Save after destroying pillar" bug where the laser puzzle save prevented the arena door from
  opening.
  
  
• Fixed a floating cosmonaut costume when jumping into a wormhole.
  
  
• Fixed a bug where the reset vehicle button displayed incorrectly as "B" instead of "R" on the keyboard.
  
  
• Updated tutorials for switching vehicle cameras using a gamepad.
  
  
• Improved default sensitivity settings for gamepad controls.
  
  
• Adjusted sensitivity on the gamepad to ensure better responsiveness.
  
  
• Updated all in-game prompts to display the appropriate gamepad button icons (e.g., "Press X to interact" instead of "Press F").
  
  
• Improved visual feedback for quick saves; the yellow line no longer appears on the sedan vehicle.
  
  
• Reduced difficulty on the alien landscape by removing one sniper robot from the train section.
  
  
• Fixed the weapon printer animation on the UFO base.
  
  
• Optimized the rendering of the Black Star 2 base to avoid visible loading when destroying distant
  pillars.
  
  
• Removed placeholder cube from the alien landscape.

Thank you so much!

Our entire indie team is closely monitoring the layoff statistics. In 2023, there were over 10,000 layoffs, and in 2024, reports indicate that more than 17,000 layoffs have occurred.
These figures are alarming, and we are concerned about what 2025 may bring.

But we wishing all a Happy New Year, even during these challenging game industry layoff!


Our entire team is currently focused on completing the vertical slice of the project and refining mechanics such as the Karaoke and Dialogue Systems.
We are also working on creating fully explorable locations where players can search for secrets and complete quests from a first-person perspective.
Also, we are working on the first trailer for Karoshi Club and hope to share it with you soon!

Greetings Mubs, you're reading the latest news about Minigame Madness V0.9.1! This bi-weekly update we've added a new Freefall Floor, Condo Walls, Grid Mode & more! 🤩

⚠️ Check the changelog at the bottom of this post for the full list of changes!

The wiki has been completely overhauled with a new main page, navigation boxes on all pages, connection data on many pages, item links on outfit & ensemble pages, and more!

Dive in here or by pressing the '?' in the in-game menu!

Our Steam page trailer has been updated to include 🎯Bounty Battle, ⚡Robot Ruckus, ☢️Parkour Panic, 🧠Twisted Trivia and ⚽Football Fever gameplay! + a little 🏠Condo teaser at the end! 🤩

The hub has frozen over again, and tomorrow the 15th, the Christmas event will start until the end of December! ❄️🥶


Want a rare Christmas hat (Knit Hat)? Starting tomorrow they will frequently drop from Fashion Bags!
Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄

The highly work-in-progress Freefall Frenzy got its first new "floor" called 'Beam'! 📏

The new procedural floor-system will allow us to gradually add more content over time, similar to the dance-system in Disco Disorder, or the question-system in Twisted Trivia! ✨

Because 'Beam' is a very easy floor, we've increased the amount of floors spawned 2x as compensation, leading to more action. 💥

Finally, after much request, we've added WALLS! Or I should rather say Wooden Panels, since they can also be used as floor & ceiling. 🔨🧐

Speaking of ceilings, your newly created ceilings also need some light! So we've also added Ceiling Lamps. 💡

Get Wooden Panels today by buying the 'Walls' ensemble, or get lucky opening a furniture crate! 🍀📦

You may wonder why it took us so long to add simple walls, but that's because we always knew that alongside walls we'd need to add a new manipulator mode to allow you to snap them together! ⚙️

And so we did! Use Grid mode (by default CTRL) while holding a furniture to allign it to the grid, both location & rotation. ALSO, there's no furniture collision while in Grid mode, allowing you to put objects inside of each other for the first time! 😯🪄

We can't wait to see what you guys will build, and to get some inspiration, make sure to check the next section! 🤩

Watch an entire city be built inside a Condo, using the new Wooden Panels and Grid Mode! 🏗️
⚠️ Wooden Panels are very orange, but will become paintable after the painting mechanic is added.
⚠️ Grass Patches have turned into square tiles to match the Wooden Panels, allowing you to easily use them together.

Stay tuned to the ever-expanding Minigame Madness experience and join developer play sessions by following us on Steam and joining the Discord community!

Have an epic day, or an average one! No pressure. 👋🏼

• Added new Freefall Frenzy floor: 'Beam'
  
• Added Condo manipulator 'Grid'-mode allowing you to perfectly place walls next to eachother and clip objects into eachother
  
• Added "Wooden Panel" furniture
  
• Added "Ceiling Lamp" furniture
  
• Added "Walls" ensemble
  
• Added "Rancher" outfit
  
• Added discord CTA to an empty friend list
  
• Added manipulator grid input setting and tutorial entry
  
• Changed Freefall Frenzy floors to spawn twice as many floors
  
• Changed Desk Lamp & Pole Lamp furniture to be brighter
  
• Changed Grass Patch furniture to be square instead of hexagonal
  
• Fixed outro of levelup/rankup/streakup animation being visible while interface hidden
  
• Fixed Mannequin T-pose bug (hopefully this time)
  
• Fixed being able to see Freefall Frenzy floors despawn

As part of the German Indiedev Showcase, Gronkh and PhunkRoyal, two of the most popular Let's Play streamers from Germany, reacted to the Tackle for Loss trailer. It was incredibly moving for me as a small developer to see the reactions of these industry legends.

Hey folks !

My other game, Fortune Avenue, just got a major update! For those who haven't heard about it yet, imagine Monopoly reinvented with modern twists that keep the game fresh and exciting. You can take planes to zip across the board, escape melting ice floes, vote on game-changing rules every 12 rolls, and even organize the World Cup to multiply your hotel's rent tenfold!

As someone who loves management games (like you all!), I designed Fortune Avenue to be deeply strategic while keeping that fun party game spirit. Instead of a boring jail, you might find yourself on a luxury cruise. And if you're falling behind, watch out for the helicopter that chases down the poorest players!

The new update brings tons of improvements and new features that make the game even more enjoyable. Plus, it's very affordable at just $2.99 - less than a cup of coffee! If you enjoy City Game Studio's mix of strategy and management, I think you'll have a blast with Fortune Avenue too.
Come try it out and let me know what you think! I'm always around to chat and improve both games based on your feedback.

Take care,
Xavier aka Binogure

P.S. There's also a free demo available if you want to give it a test drive first!
