| Love is in the air... ...or is it just shrapnel from the Gnome's cannon? Either way, we've just added a new map, titled "Love", in which the goblin discovers the Blue Knight's true feelings about him. Or something. Happy Valentine's day, folks! | 1628385 | |
| Patch notes 1.4.1 This patch adds a new map from our map creator Jonas - it's a fiendish and deadly spike-filled maze. To help you, you must decide whether to trust the advice of the Red Man, the Green Man, or the Blue Man! | — | |
| Santas and Grottos With v1.4 we add another new map ("Santas and Grottos") filled with puzzles and traps. And it looks like every player is wearing that dumbass freebie Santa costume offered by the server admins this year! | — | |
| The Guild Election Barack Pleasestay4moreyears has stepped down as guild leader and now Donald Stump and Shillary Cheater are in competition with each other to become the new guild leader. Can one lowly goblin sway the future of the server? And what does the treacherous Facepalmer have to do with it all? (Patch: v1.3.1) | — | |
| Halloween on the server... It's Halloween on the Goblin's shard, and the heroes are dressing up in silly costumes, as is the fashion in MMOs these days.. Patch 1.3.0 adds a new map ('Haunted House'), full of fiendish traps and spooky noises. And the usual amount of dumbass adventurers out to kill the goblin for a few XP. It also adds a brand-new piece of spooky music. Enjoy! ... if you dare! | — | |
| G&G v1.2 and free Music DLC released! This patch adds some new game content, and a free music DLC download. - We have added a new object, the "helium vial". When smashed this creates a purple "cloud of helium" that makes anything inside it fly up in the air for a few seconds. Seems realistic, right? - We have added two new official maps which you'll see from the Play window: (1) Gopunzel - can you save the lovely maiden from the to… | — | |
| Steam Workshop Added We have added Steam Workshop support to the game (patch 1.1.2). This will make it easy to share your cool Goblins & Grottos maps with your Steam friends, and browse/download other people's maps. We have also made a 'cheat sheet' of commands for use with the map-maker, and a video tutorial covering its basic useage: Map Editor Instructions | — | |
| Patch notes 1.1.0 There's a couple of bug fixes in here related to Achievements. A major version number update was needed due to server compatibility. Also just to let you know we're working hard on integrating Steam Workshop and this should be ready in a week or so. | — | |
| Patch notes 1.0.5 This patch makes these updates: - replaced the tutorial with a much more entertaining one - improved the zoom in/out feature when using the map editor (it's done using mousewheel or +/- on keyboard) - chains swing a bit more based on speed you hit them at when grabbing them - a number of physics efficiency tweaks to help framerates - fixed a bug with positioning of the troll sprite when it attacks | — | |
| Patch notes 1.0.4 This patch rolls in a few playability tweaks with keyboard and especially game controller use: - 2 or more controllers can now be plugged in at once, and whichever one is active will be listened to - to jump from a wall or chain: now just press left/right+jump; there's no need to also press Up (which was awkward previously, especially on game controllers) - if you jump to a wall/chain and grab… | — | |
| Patch Notes 0.15.0 The main reason for this patch is related to a change on our map-server, to make it more efficient when there are lots of maps with lots of comments and scores attached to them. This patch also adds a number of new achievements, bringing the current total to 23. It also adds variations on the core goblin 'voice' sounds (grunts, jumps etc.) in the forest and village environments. | — | |
| Patch Notes 0.14.1 This patch adds: - 16 Steam Achievements. There will be more to come later. - a 'tactical map' system that lets you see you progress as you move through the maps in the Official Campaign (or in any other multi-map story). Tweaks: - The game now pauses when the 'Exit Game' or 'Settings' windows are onscreen. - Dispensers now supply unlimited amounts of items. When the limit is reached, the oldes… | — | |
| Patch Notes 0.14.0 Map Editor We have been doing quite a bit of work making the Map Editor easier and quicker to use: - New Fill Tools for platforms, tree trunks, sawblade paths, background woodbeams, railings, village house walls, snow - New Random Object Tools for various decoration items: background and foreground moss, and various types of background woodbeams - Stopped multiple layers of water tiles from bei… | — | |
| Patch Notes 0.13.0 There's some nice new features in this patch. In addition, we're moving towards the final release of the game, which will include some previously unseen features such as a minecart and rails system, and a user-definable boss-battle system (similar to the cutscene system). Anyhow, more on that later... for now, we have patch 0.13.0: New Audio: - voice for the healer/priest character - voices and… | — | |
| Patch Notes 0.12.0 New Characters - The healer spends his time resurrecting heroes - Three skeleton characters (who are, of course, friendly with the goblin) New Music - "Goblin Detective (Reprise)" New Map Objects - a variety of new decorations for the 4th environment (mountain/castle) Miscellaneous - bugfixes and tweaks to code, graphics, and audio - tweaks to map 06 - tidied up the Settings window | — | |
| Patch notes 0.11.1 Another bunch of cool updates here, mostly related to region 4 (mountain/evil castle) Traps/interactive objects: - added a fireball-firing statue, with user-definable shoot rate and shoot speed - added circular saw trap that moves between user-defined flags at a user-defined speed - added disappearing tiles - added portals which teleport characters and objects from one to another (based on user… | — | |

Three New Official Maps, all in the Village region: - "Backstabber" - "Do you even lift" - "Boss of Feathers" New characters: - Three villagers, who scream and run away when they see the goblin or any other creature. Very comical! :-) New Game Items: - The scrolling backgrounds and basic tilesets for the 4th region: this includes the Mountain, and… | — | |
| Patch notes 0.9 There's lots more good stuff in this patch! Cheap Sheep! - We have made a special 2-map story "Cheap Sheep", uploaded into the online maps repository, to celebrate the latest Steam sale. Can you defeat the evil Lord Gaben, who is intent on making all games 'sheep'? Will you meet the G&G developers Jonas, Sam, Bjorn and Ian? Will they have deep philosophical insights to impart? World Objects: -… | — | |
| Patch notes 0.8 There's lots of new content in this patch! 'The Village' (region 3): - new tileset (with the usual autofill tools for tiles and backgrounds) - new objects (house walls, shops, signs, fences, etc.) - new physics-controlled objects (tables, potions, etc.) Maps: - map 09 has been extended substantially Music: - added a new music track ("The Hall of the Mountain Troll") which is used in the game me… | — | |
