Original postThank you!
Since the game released more than two months ago over 15 000 players have played the game! We are very happy that so many of you decided to give our game a try. Judging from the feedback we got, we definitely did something right. For those of you who like numbers here are a couple of interesting statistics:
- Over 15 000 players since launch
- Over 7 000 000 steps taken in total
- On average every player completed at least 20 levels in the main campaign
- Players completed more than 1400 random insane levels and more than 50 000 random easy levels
- Several hundred players managed to complete the whole main campaign!
- 12 players managed to complete the main campaign without ANY hints. Wow! ːsteamhappyː
Celebrate with us
To celebrate, there is a discount running on our first DLC! If you liked the main campaign we are sure you will instantly fall in love with the new one. There is quite a lot of new stuff!

A new adventure awaits! This expansion pack improves on everything that makes the base game fun and brings in many new ideas and features to keep you entertained for hours.
New campaign
The campaign consists of six handcrafted chapters and you will find 16 levels in each of them. Every chapters starts with simple levels and gradually moves to much more difficult challenges.
Demonstrate your mastery over the world of Cubiscape by completing the whole campaign!
New puzzle elements
The first four chapters of the campaign each focus on one of the new puzzle elements - be it the "rewinder", falling ground or the new "vertical" enemy ("wolf" in our nature theme!). You will be gradually introduced to how the element works and then given increasingly harder puzzles to solve. Be prepared!
But don't worry, if you find yourself stuck there is always the possibility to get a hint ːsteamhappyː
The four new elements are:
- Falling ground - falls down after someone walks over it, making it impossible to walk over it again
- Vertical enemy - same as regular enemy ("red cube/fox") but prefers vertical movement over horizontal
- Rewinder - moves any character back to its starting point and removes any buffs (shields, speed...)
- Blue Wall - you can move this wall up or down whenever you like!
Which one do you find the most interesting? Let us know!
Unlimited creativity
Want to play around with the new puzzle elements yourself? Then open the editor and create your own levels or play those created by the community.
We are eager to see what are you able to come up with!
Achievements and skins
With the new campaign come new achievements. Progress in the campaign to earn them!
Don't forget to check out two brand new skins - "The Brain" and "The Thinker" . These come without any rank requirements so make sure to try them out ːsteamhappyː
Other
The release of this expansion pack brings also some changes and improvements to the base game:
- new batch of randomly generated levels with better balanced difficulty
- slightly improved visuals for various ingame elements
- improved and simplified UI navigation
- other small bugfixes

Original postNature theme!
As a small surprise we have created a "nature" theme that will turn all levels into neat little forests filled with traps, foxes and bears! All the different animals are animated to bring a little bit more life into the game. An update with this will is now available for everyone and you can switch to the new theme in settings.
We have also tweaked the apperance of a few elements in the original theme - the biggest change being the addition of gray sides to the fast red cube (see bellow) which should hopefully make it much easier to recognize (especially for our visually impaired players!).
For those of you who are eager to try the theme out, here is a little visual guide to make the transition easier:
And don't worry, the mechanics of the game are still the same! You will of course be able to use the classic "cubes" theme if you want - it's entirely up to you! Let us know in the comments what you think about the new theme. Thank you!

Original postIntroduction
As promised in our updates roadmap we are releasing our first major content update for Cubiscape 2. See bellow for what you will find in this release. We are also looking for more feedback so we know what to focus on in future updates. We read every comment and review - your opinion is very valuable to us!
New Features
Steam Achievements
This was the most requested feature by far so we are pleased to announce that now you can earn over 20 achievements by playing the main campaign and solving random puzzles!
Leaderboards
To bring a bit of competitiveness to random levels we are introducing the Leaderboard feature that will track the most capable players across all platforms. You will find the leaderboards directly in the "Random" menu. There is a separate table for each of the four difficulties. Those players that solve the most levels in the last 7 days will appear in the leaderboards - so go out there and earn those bragging rights!
Note: this feature is still in Beta and we will be closely monitoring it for any potential problems. The leaderboards update roughly every hour, so it might take some time before you see your latest score.
New (sort of) campaign chapters
As promised the campaign got two more chapters added to it. Unfortunately we rolled out this feature a week earlier than intended and the quality of the content was not up to par. We apologize for that. This is now resolved - and don't worry, if you already completed some (or all!) of the levels, you will not lose your progress.
Other improvements
- Better tutorial
- General UI improvements
- Several other under the hood fixes
That's it for today. We are already working on more improvements to the game and will be ready to share more details in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

Original postUpdates Roadmap
The game is released but that does not mean we are done with it. Quite the opposite in fact! There are several updates planned for the game that will bring new content or even completely new features or puzzle elements.
November campaign update
Later this month we will release two new chapters for the main campaign. Each of them will contain over 15 new levels and focus on a subset of elements to really test your wits!
December special update
Later this year and hopefully before Christmas there will be a much larger update. This will not only bring new chapters to the campaign, but also two (or even more!) new puzzle elements! A small sneak peek of what's in store for you is below.
Next year
What will new year bring for Cubiscape 2? Nobody knows for certain, but the team already has a few ideas. There are rumours about a new game mode... stay tuned!
