Thank you for playing BALL x PIT!

[p]Hello, treasure seekers!

What an amazing week it’s been! Never in our wildest dreams did we imagine the incredible support we've seen from all of you.

Since BALL x PIT revealed at Summer Game Fest, over 165,000 players have jumped into the demo! But it gets even better: the demo is now sitting at an amazing 96% positive rating, with more than 700 reviews on Steam, and we have already gathered over 116,000 wishlists! From the pit of our hearts, THANK YOU to everyone who played, shared their thoughts, and showed so much love for our little game.


The good news is, as we shared on X, we won’t be removing the demo after Steam Next Fest! So you can keep playing as much as you want until launch. AND we can also confirm that all your achievements and demo progress WILL carry over to the full release! (Sadly, it doesn’t work with Steam Deck…yet).

Also, we want you to know that much of your feedback and many of your suggestions will be reflected in the final game — in fact, some of them are! But, since the demo only includes the first level of the game, you cannot see them. But here is a little taste:
[/p]
  • [p] Passive fusions
    [/p]
  • [p] More ball and passive slots
    [/p]
  • [p] Higher starting levels of balls
    [/p]
  • [p] Number of minimum fusion upgrades
    [/p]
  • [p] And much more!!!
    [/p]
[p]Now, if you’d like to stay connected with us, share your feedback, and be the first to hear news about BALL x PIT, we encourage you to join our Discord server. You can also follow us on X, Bluesky and Reddit.

Thank you again for all the support, and see you in the pit, seekers! [/p]
