Howdy, Sponge Buds!


Another round of bug fixes, performance improvements, and level polish is rolling out.

Performance & Bug Fixes

  • Improved performance by reducing the number of floating crates loaded at once

  • Updated switch colors so they're more intuitive, with green indicating On and red indicating Off

  • Fixed the Use Radial occasionally remaining on screen after storing an item

  • Fixed a bug where the Throw indicator could become stuck on screen

  • Fixed a bug where players could continue taking damage after being revived from a bear trap

Level Improvements & Polish

  • Testing the Waters

    • Replaced single bomb with a bomb spawner and added an additional bomb inside the cave

  • Dam Buster

    • Replaced single bomb with a bomb spawner, added another bomb inside the cave, and placed additional defibrillators throughout the level

  • Wood Chipper, Razor's Edge, The Ascent, and The Climb:

    • Added additional defibrillators to make recovering from mistakes a little less punishing

  • The Barrage:

    • Removed two obstacles that could lead to instant death, improved a difficult jump with better ramping, adjusted a gate that could cause awkward raft collisions, smoothed river flow, and added additional defibrillators

  • This Is It:

    • Prevented an out-of-bounds spot inside the waterfall, made the plank puzzle easier to navigate, added player pullers to speed up recovery after falling, added campfires to better support solo players, refined the second puzzle to be more intuitive and forgiving, added more defibrillators, and fixed a switch that could sometimes be difficult to activate

As always, thanks for playing Sponge Break and helping us improve the game! Every bug report, suggestion helps us make the river a little smoother without taking away the chaos that makes it fun.

See you on the rapids!
