3.0 Patch Notes:
Companion Mode
- Our full vision of EarthNight with both Stanley & Sydney dragon running together at the same time has come to life!
- While playing as either Stanley or Sydney the other character will join you on your run as an AI controlled player running on dragons, fighting dragon heads and skydiving.
- Your companion can only help you, collecting power-ups, scraps, killing enemies, adding to your combos and helping you kill dragons.
- Companion Mode is now on by default but can be turned on or off in the settings or pause menu at any time to return to classic mode.
Two Player Local Co-Op
- A feature we’ve always dreamed of, playing with Stanley & Sydney simultaneously on the same dragon with 2 players is now a reality!
- A second player can jump into the action at any time by connecting a second controller to take control of the second character including mid run.
- Both players can simultaneously run on the dragon together and fight dragon heads together.
- A second player can only help you, collecting power-ups, scraps, killing enemies, adding to your combos and helping you kill dragons.
- Even with Companion Mode off, connecting a second controller will pop in the other player to join the action.
In Ship Altimeter
- Players can now start their runs from different layers of the atmosphere!
- After unlocking all the powerups in an atmosphere layer players will unlock the next layer in their ship.
- The altimeter can be accessed above the character selection in the ship to scroll through the different layers of the atmosphere.
Playable Tutorials
- 6 Playable tutorials for Stanley & Sydney teaching controls, sword power-ups, dragon bread power-ups & double jump boots.
- A piñata dragon tutorial head sequence.
- New Chipocrite songs for the tutorials and piñata head sequence.
- Players will see tutorials in game and they can also be accessed from the ship’s settings menu to replay.
A Holiday Themed Lobby
- The ship now features character poses and decorations that follow the calendar year.
- For the month of October the ship’s lobby will be Halloween themed.
- For the month of December the ship’s lobby will be Christmas themed.
- From New Years until the end of January the ship’s lobby will be New Years themed.
Credits in Main Menu

- The credits sequence features an orchestral version of “The Forever World” from the stratosphere by Yoshimi Kudo & Hitoshi Sakimoto.
Quality of Life Improvements
