Zeepkist News

- Changed times on some construction adventure levels

- Construction adventure levels now show up in free play as well

Zeepkist has just released its first content update: the Under Construction Update! 🥳🚧

This update is all about being under construction, much like Zeepkist itself! New items include construction themed-blocks, road barriers, and much more!




- 89 new static blocks
- 14 new dynamic blocks
- 33 new materials
- 6 new adventure mode levels
- 3 new hats
- 3 new zeepkists


- Physics timestep changed from 60fps to 90fps*
- Added signs to the overworld at the point where levels become extremely challenging
- Changed color of unlocked adventure levels from Blue to Orange
- Tweaked damage values
- Increased walking speed in adventure mode
- Setting for menu controls inversion is now "off" by default
- Various bug fixes




The internal physics timestep has been increased from 60 per second, to 90 per second. This means that in general, the physics simulation will be a lot more stable. It also means that there is less time per physics timestep to complete all calculations, and this might mean that for lower-end PCs, Zeepkist might be too performance intensive to run. It's all a bit experimental at this point, and more changes may come in the future.

For this reason I've updated the recommended specs to the developer's computer specs, which are known to run smooth. Lesser specs might very well run fine, but I can give no guarantees at this point!


My current plan is to start working on Steamworks SDK integration and Steam Workshop support. This will be a rather technical feature update without much new content, but it will mean (if all goes well!) that user made levels will be able to be shared via Steam!

Progress on this can be followed via the usual channels!

Happy zeepkisting!!

- Removed screen space reflections, they were really ugly on big shiny surfaces. Should also help with performance.

- Changed the plastic materials to look more plastic

- Added level name to end race screen

- Fixed paint tool breaking when hovering over certain block elements

- Added pipette mode to paint tool, allows you to select materials from blocks

- Added material thumbnail to paint tool, shows you the currently selected material

- Added extra arrows for clarity on levels 7, 14, and 16.

- Remove one boulder spawner from level 14, should be slightly easier now.

- Added a label in main menu when the camera is turned around and controls are inverted, should help people navigate the menu better.
