Hey Janitors!
That's right, BroomSweeper 2.0 is releasing August 20th, which is just 10 days away! We've been working super hard behind the scenes, and there's so much we're excited to share with you!
But before we get to the 2.0 features, let's take a quick dive through all the features playable NOW that you may have missed!
The Employee Handbook - Added in 1.1!
(A screenshot of the second page of the "HazMats" section of the Employee Handbook, showing descriptions and examples for Mold, Slug, and Tentacles)
This lovely book contains all of the items, M.O.P.s, HazMats, lore entries, characters (with a Win/Loss ratio), keys, and advancements you find throughout your runs! The Employee Handbook is great for reading up on your favorite characters, looking at your favorite art, and brushing up on the mechanics of that pesky slug!
Holiday and Seeded Runs - Added in 1.2!
(A screenshot showing the Holiday Runs section of the menu, with Black Friday selected. Each Holiday Run icon shows the highest floor completed under that runs restrictions. The details section explains the currently selected run's challenge, and another window shares a fun fact about the holiday.)
Update 1.2 brought challenge runs to BroomSweeper, in the form of Holiday Runs! Play through Earth Day, Custodian's Day, and all your favorite holidays with bonuses and drawbacks, tracking your highest completed floor for each. Seed your runs to play through offices with the exact same randomization. 1.2 even brought Steam Deck Verification, for more sweeping on the go!
Daily Shifts and Infinity Mode - Added in 1.3!
(A screenshot of the Daily Runs section of the menu, showing three modifiers assigned for the days run, and an area to show the day's best score, currently showing "Work Today's Daily Shift to see your Score")
With randomized modifiers, character, and floor, Daily Shifts brought a brand new twist to the office! Work with or work against the days challenges throughout your run, and compete against other players scores on the same day! And, if new modifiers every 24 hours still isn't enough BroomSweeper for you (is there even such thing as "enough BroomSweeper"?), take your runs Infinite, continuing to climb TentaTeq and seeing just how far that First Sweep build can really go!
Now those are some great updates and features to follow! So what's coming in BroomSweeper 2.0 that has us so excited?
Well honestly a lot, but here's the most notable few:
THE END IS COMING IN UPDATE 2.0
(A screenshot of text, covered in tape saying "SWEEPING - DO NOT CROSS". Some text is readable, such as "You've made it. The Final office", "ending", and "you...". Much of the other text is covered by the tape)
...Did you think we'd just reveal the final office? Wait for the update!

And of course, it wouldn't be a BroomSweeper post without a picture of Lake.
