We're bringing SUPER56 to the VIDEO GAMES LAB ROME, which runs between Jan 25-28, 2024. Play SUPER56 in Rome by swinging by the Games London Booth, and meet us along with four other cool Indie devs showcasing their awesome games.

GRAB YOUR FAVOURITE COUCH AND SOME FRIENDS




Hold onto your hats – multiplayer mode is in the works! We heard your pleas and added local multiplayer to SUPER56. Currently in Beta testing, we're ironing out the kinks for a seamless experience. You can even sneak a peek at the 'BETA' branch on SUPER56 (no password needed). Stay tuned on Steam and our socials for the big reveal! We're currently working on a trailer that will blow your socks off!

GENERAL BUG FIXES




We've been on a bug-squashing spree! Added some extra flair to the stages – more guidance, simplifying the more abstract levels, and sprinkling in some extra weirdness. Because who doesn't love a bit of organised chaos?


Keep your eyes peeled for more updates ✨


Thanks again,


Amy & Andy

-Improved Dolphin Stage (REACH THE FINISH LINE) logic, speed and difficulty, it's a better stage now!
-Improved some graphics on the BOUNCE 15 (skipping stones) stage
-PRESENT EVIDENCE now greys out used evidence
-in KEEP BABY ALIVE changed temperature and food/drink info from text based to icon based for quicker and easier readability
-Made the fish in CATCH 3 RIVERMEN faster and made the particle effect when they bite more recognisable
-GO THRU CHECKPOINTS, now the checkpoints actually look like checkpoints
-added bunnies to SMASH THE CAR, don't hit them or you'll lose your multiplier!

Happy gaming!

Get Your Jingle On in the Steam Winter Sale

Hello humans

Hope you're full of holiday cheer, now that the Steam Winter Sale is here!



We're spreading the joy chaos with a 10% discount in the Steam Winter Sale. We know that the holidays are typically all about family, friends, and food, but the holidays are also about gaming.

Now a fast paced mini game collection may not be your typical choice for a holiday game, but we guarantee it'll be a great addition to your party game collection, and will leave Grandma asking just what was in the gravy.

We recently added some free content too, so here's a reminder of what was added:

[h2]Mic Control (Experimental)[/h2]
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
Ever dreamt of yelling at your game and having it actually listen? Now's your chance! Mic Control lets you boss around SUPER 56 using your microphone – it's like having your own gaming genie. Grab a head-set style mic, maybe a Santa hat too, and let the mayhem commence.

[h2]Trial Mode - Clean the Whole House:[/h2]

Feeling the festive cleaning spirit? Try out the first Trial Mode – Clean the Whole House! Grab the cat-vacuum, channel your inner Mrs. Claus, and compete for cleaning glory. Each trial comes with its own leaderboard, turning tidying up into a festive competition. You might even discover the joy of cleaning... or not.

[h2]New Achievements, Secrets, and Surprises:[/h2]
Unwrap two shiny new achievements tied to the Clean the House Trial. One's a secret – because who doesn't love a bit of mystery during the holidays? Check out the Achievements table to see what challenges await and flex your gaming muscles.

[h2]Leaderboard Shenanigans:[/h2]

Laugh your way through the leaderboards as everyone's witty remarks make an appearance. We admit we spend too much time reading these gems, but it's the holidays – time for some good-natured chuckles!

[h2]Miscellaneous Awesomeness:[/h2]
We've sprinkled in some UI magic and fixed up Simplified Chinese credits. Oh, and about our dear Reiwa man – he's taking a festive break and sent his doppelgänger to keep you company. Is it him? Is it not? The mystery thickens like eggnog.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your controller, keyboard, drum kit, dog food, doorbell, or mouth, boot up SUPER 56, and make this holiday season the weirdest one yet. May your victories be sweet, your fails be hilarious, and your neighbours forgiving.

Happy holidays and get playing SUPER 56!
