Gameplay Added a custom Seal Grounder with tail spline IK, allowing the player to conform naturally to uneven terrain with ultra-smooth, fluid movement the way seals should. This is the first iteration, with additional refinements and polish still in progress. Frosting Falls Fixed an issue with the respawn zone that could place the player incorrectly or fail to trigger properly.
Added a new Compatibility Settings menu accessible from the shader precompile screen during startup, with full keyboard and gamepad support. This was added for players whose systems struggled with the 3D title screen, making it difficult to reach or select the normal graphics settings. You can now apply Safe, Performance, Balanced, Quality, or Ultra presets before entering the game, providing q…

Fixed an issue where multiplayer races could fail to start after leaving and rejoining a lobby. · Fixed music tracks occasionally repeating unexpectedly. · Added transition screen wipes for smoother level changes.
Flipper Fog Canal has gotten one of the biggest overhauls in the game. It always felt like one of the weaker maps to me. The layout was pretty flat and never really lived up to what I had in my head, so I decided to go back and rebuild it instead of just moving on. The map now has a lot more elevation, winding ramps, multiple routes with hidden pathways and tunnels that loop back into the main…

Patch 1.1.3 is now live. Added Tutorial v1.0 — the first pass at onboarding new players into the advanced field of seal movement. The tutorial currently covers: • Hopping • Gallumphing • Water routing • Rolling / momentum preservation • Jumping • Basic terrain strategy This is still an early implementation, so some timing, terrain flow, and lesson pacing still need refinement over future update…
1 year ago I launched Flipper Frenzy into Early Access. Since then, the game has evolved far beyond the original launch version. Over the past year I’ve continued building the game alongside a full-time job, late nights, early mornings, and the general chaos of raising a growing family — slowly expanding the maps, systems, multiplayer, customization, rendering, UI, and overall identity of the g…

I’ve been heads down on a major upgrade—migrating the entire project from Unreal Engine 5.4 → Unreal Engine 5.7. This wasn’t a simple upgrade… it meant rewriting a lot of core systems to align with the new API, reworking multiplayer flow, and untangling more edge cases than I’d like to admit. There are still a few unknowns I’m actively working through: · Some graphical inconsistencies (lighting…
FlipStackRun is officially playable. Bounce off bumpers, launch off ramps, and tumble through a bright stack of toy-block chaos. It’s loud, colorful, and a little unhinged in the best way. Still early, still rough, but the fun is absolutely there. More twists, polish, and seal mayhem coming soon. FlipStackRun がついにプレイ可能になりました。 カラフルなブロックの世界で、バンパーに弾かれ、ランプで跳び、勢いのまま突っ込め。 まだ荒削りだけど、楽しい混沌はすでに完成。 これからもっ…
SealBlock Speedway is the newest track currently under construction—a chaotic tabletop circuit built from colorful modular blocks, winding water channels, and stacked vertical routes.

This early build focuse…

Sealando Bay is still a work in progress, but this update brings improved Unreal shading across the environment for richer lighting, water, and materials. Palm trees are now hand-animated to sway with the wind , adding more life and motion to the resort. More polish and iteration to come as development continues. シーランド・ベイ – WIPアップデート シーランド・ベイは現在も開発途中（WIP）ですが、今回のアップデートではUnrealのシェーディングを改善し、ライティング…

This update took me a long time, but it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while. I finally built a fully custom 3D text system for the game — not just a font swap, but a whole new way of treating text as physical objects with lighting, depth, offsets, squish, stretch, and motion. It is a little graphically heavy, but that was intentional. I want the text in this world to feel alive and handcr…
