Brotato News

Brotato has been chosen by the Tiny Teams 2023 event as a "Tiny Teams Champion"

To celebrate this occasion we are running a 20% discount!

The Tiny Teams event runs for a week - from August 3rd until August 10th and showcases games made by very small developer teams.

Thanks to the hard work of Seaven Studio, Brotato is coming to Nintendo Switch on August 3rd! Preorders are available right now.

They've also made a bunch of performance enhancements that we'll be able to carry on to the PC version. So you can expect a patch soon-ish that should help the game run better on lower-end machines.

In the meantime, the team has grown (just a tiny bit) and Blobfish Games is now a real studio. I've been spending some time trying to figure out the next steps but rest assured that 1.0 is not the end for Brotato, and that more projects are on the horizon!

After 10 months of Early Access, Brotato is now out in version 1.0!

Thank you everyone for playing the game and for your feedback!

I hope you all enjoy Brotato in its complete (?) form!
