Greetings, festive friends!
The time of the year has come again! It is Christmas time.
Introducing the Season 2024 update today. The journey continues with many improvements and new levels!
Challenge Mode
Announced last year, the Challenge Mode is finally here! It launches with 3 exciting levels designed to push your skills to the limit, offering a tougher twist compared to the story levels. Don’t worry—more are on the way in future updates!
Training Mode
The original challenge levels make a return as Training Levels, perfect for newcomers to learn game mechanics and warm up. While the training menu is still the old version, updates will soon make it more polished and controller-ready for an even better experience.
Tweaked Jumping
Jumping has been slightly refined to address frustration, especially in the early stages of the game. While the core mechanics remain unchanged, these adjustments aim to make tricky sections more approachable without altering the overall gameplay feel. For experienced players, it will still feel the same!
A Round of Optimizations
Last year’s update introduced some bugs—we’ve worked hard to address these and refine the experience. If you still encounter issues, please share them in the Steam Forums. We’re here to help!
A huge thank you to everyone who reported bugs in the Steam Forums—we truly appreciate your help! And an honest apology for the delay in addressing some of these issues—it’s taken until this season, but we’re committed to making things right. If any issues persist, please let us know!
A Note about last years Jumping
Last year, some players mentioned that jumping felt different. Rest assured, no changes were made to the jump mechanics at that time. However, many switched from keyboard to controller thanks to the new support, and the controls can feel a bit different between the two setups. We recommend experimenting to find what feels best for you!
What's next?
Our elves are hard at work, fine-tuning and improving the game further. Fixes for any new issues and exciting additions like new challenge levels are on the horizon. Let’s see what the rest of the year brings! Share your feedback and suggestions in the Steam Forum!
As we wrap up this update, if you haven't already, consider supporting the game by leaving a review on the Steam shop page. Your input is invaluable in making the game even better.
