🐧 Hey, Penguins!
We’ve rolled out Update 1.1.3 with a focus on gameplay balance, competitive fairness, stability, and quality-of-life improvements, based directly on player feedback and observed edge cases.
🏆 Leaderboards - Season 3
Season 3 is now live - the fairest season since Bouncemasters release! All new records are now tracked in the third leaderboard season.
You can switch between seasons to view your previous results.
Real skill competition begins now - no more bugs with infinite flight!
🔄 Flight Reset Hotkey
Added a flight reset hotkey (R).
While flying, you’ll now see a small hint in the top-right corner indicating that you can reset the current flight.
This allows faster retries and smoother gameplay flow, especially for challenge attempts.
⚖️ Progression & Balance Changes
Overall upgrades effectiveness has been reduced by ~30%.
This change makes fully upgraded gameplay more controllable and comfortable at high speeds, and significantly reduces extreme edge cases.
Bat hit power remains unchanged, so your strikes still feel strong and satisfying.
At max upgrades (level 100), the game is now more readable, playable, and stable.
These changes were made both to improve the gameplay feel and to eliminate situations where extreme stats could lead to unintended behavior & bugs exploit.
