Mr Toilet has officially launched into Early Access today.
That means thousands of players around the world are now:
unclogging toilets

And honestly?
We think you should join them.
To celebrate the launch, Mr Toilet is now available in a special bundle together with Aquarist, so you can grab both games at a lower price.

Junkyard Builder now in Full Release
🚀 Junkyard Builder is out of Early Access (yes, it finally happened) You know how some projects start small and then… get slightly out of hand? Yeah, that’s this one. What began as “let’s make a small scrapyard game” somehow turned into: a full-blown recycling operation machines
🚀 Junkyard Builder is out of Early Access (yes, it finally happened)
You know how some projects start small and then… get slightly out of hand?
Yeah, that’s this one.
What began as “let’s make a small scrapyard game” somehow turned into:
a full-blown recycling operation
machines everywhere
and players min-maxing trash like it’s a competitive sport
And now it’s officially out of Early Access.
Which means this is the actual full version. The one with more content, more systems, and fewer “we’ll fix it later” moments.
💸 Also, about the price (we come bearing good news)
The game is currently:
🔥 on Daily Deal
💸 discounted for launch
AND — if you like getting things even cheaper (who doesn’t):
👉 There’s a bundle with this game available, so you can grab it for an even lower price if you own or pick up our other games
https://store.steampowered.com/bundlelist/3339330
basically… we made a game about trash
and now we’re helping you save money
this feels thematically correct
🎬 If you want to see what you’re getting into:
Check out the full release trailer here:

Watch on YouTube

Thanks for checking it out — and sorry in advance if you lose 3 hours optimizing scrap processing.
