Update 1.0.4: Piles and fixes

All news Players around this date Read on Steam

Added

- A Recommended settings button in the graphics tab. It matches vertical sync to your monitor and clears the manual frame cap.

Fixed

- Piles formed when you didn't ask for them. Putting an item back where you took it no longer makes one, and a pile won't swallow things buried under other stuff.
- The game ran as many frames as your monitor could take, and laptops ran hot for a game about sorting buttons. On fast displays it syncs to every other frame now.
- All Four Windows and Click didn't show up when you earned them.
- English wrote the temperature as "+30°". Each language sets its own form now.
- The day screen kept the font of whatever language it loaded first.

Changed

- Piles no longer catch things you throw past them. A pile used to slow down anything flying over it, and in practice it swallowed throws meant for a box. Throws go where you aim them now.

If Steam hasn't picked the update up yet, restart it, or switch it to offline mode and back.

This one is about fixing that, plus two other things that decide what lands on your desk. What changed - An order doesn't show up half sorted anymore. It could happen that more than half the things were already sitting in tidy piles by the right boxes, sometimes almost the whole desk came like that, and there was nothing left for…Game update26 Aug 2026Update 1.0.5: Controls, and settings for themSorry about the controls in 1.0.4. We changed the way things stick together, and building piles got harder instead of easier. Most of that is rolled back now, and the parts people disagree about have moved into the settings, so you can set them the way your hands like. From here on we'll be more careful with control changes, and when there's a call to make, it goes into the settings rather than…
