Hello Hamster Ballers!
We're excited to announce the release date for the game is set for August 10th, 2026. We've taken into account the feedback from the demo and made a few adjustments like:
Improving shadow positioning
Camera sensitivity options
An option for removing the bomb bar
Adjusting some of the course difficulty
And of course fixing bugs :')
Given that the full game is launching soon, we will be taking down the demo by the end of next week (July 17th, 2026). If you haven't tried the game for free already and would like to rage at your friends, check it out before then!
Either way, we're incredibly thankful for the almost 2,000 people who've tried the demo and helped us make the game better.
See you at launch o7!
Robin & Nick
