Hello, it's been a long time since I'd planned to have the bonus levels all done (which was before the game was even released). Working on an online multiplayer game has required all my focus to keep it on track. But it's almost the 1-year anniversary of The Upturned Inn, and it'
Patch notes: Fixed issue where the player's camera would clip through the ceiling sometimes. Renamed Mr. Ballen to Mr. Ballin, because I learned there was already someone with that weird name. Made the lamps 'brighter' in the ending scene Fixed the conveyor belts in Floor 1407.
Hello! I am back with a small patch. I'm excited to come back to the game and add in the bonus levels, but I'm a bit distracted by my NEXT project (which has been very new and challenging for reasons I won't disclose.) Patch notes: You can now navigate menus with the mouse! Move

Hello! Here is the first update of many, but this one is mainly just an emergency patch. In future updates I will be improving the chocolate bar mechanic and adding in bonus levels. I am glad to see the reaction to the game! Thank you guys so much for playing and helping me find
The day is finally here! The Upturned is out now, along with the full soundtrack. I have finished everything (except for the semi-secret bonus levels, which I will roll out in subsequent updates). The story of The Upturned Inn is now complete. It's such a momentous occasion I fee
Hello! The Upturned Inn is still under construction, and I thought it would be good and fun to update you on its progress and brag a little. First of all, I will be participating in Steam Next Fest in February, and you'll be able to try a demo of The Upturned there! It's a fairly
Hello! I'm very pleased to announce my third stand-alone game. I'm especially excited to announce this one. My first game, It Steals, asked the question, "How do I make an enemy that uses stealth to approach the player unpredictably." And I answered it in five different ways. My
