Updates

The latest news and progress from the studio.

  1. Blockstrr

    Internal testing is nearing completion

    Blockstrr has moved into the final stretch of internal testing. We're working through the last fixes and polish before it's ready for release.

  2. ATG

    Welcome

    ATG now has a home on the web. Everything we release will be shown here, and updates will be posted as things change.

  3. Blockstrr

    Three stars you can actually reach

    Every Adventure level now has a three-star goal that's hard but achievable. Each one was tuned against a play-testing bot, and we eased the few levels it couldn't clear at all.

  4. Blockstrr

    Personal Stats

    A new stats page in Settings tracks your longest Classic combo streak and your best Chockablock run. Crazy mode now keeps its own best score, and bigger blasts shake the screen harder.

  5. Blockstrr

    Magmoth arrives

    The final boss joins the roster in The Cinder. Win and loss screens have been redesigned, and Puzzle mode gained a Return to stack button for sending a piece you can't use back into the queue.

  6. Blockstrr

    Six realms and a world map

    Adventure now spans six realms, each with its own map, colour theme and boss, linked by a world map you swipe between. Beating a boss unlocks that realm's theme.
