Cash Cow DX News

[p]Hi everyone,[/p][p]I’ve identified the cause of the recent crashes affecting Donut Dodo (on startup) and Cash Cow DX (when loading leaderboards). Unfortunately, the SilentWolf leaderboard backend, which both games rely on for their cross-platform leaderboards, has been shut down without warning as of November 1st.[/p][p]Because the games are attempting to connect to SilentWolf on launch, this sudden shutdown is causing the crashes some of you are seeing.
[/p][p]I’m already working on uncoupling SilentWolf from both games as the top priority. Here’s what to expect:[/p]

• [p]Steam leaderboards will remain unaffected and can still be accessed normally through Steam.[/p]
• [p]The cross-platform leaderboards will need to be temporarily disabled until a replacement is ready.[/p]
• [p]Long-term, both games will be updated to use a new in-house leaderboard system, though this will take a bit of time to implement properly.[/p]

[p]This situation came completely without warning, and I sincerely apologize for the disruption. Fixes are being worked on right now and will be released as soon as possible.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding.
I’ll continue to post updates as progress is made.[/p]

In case diving out of rogue planes and avoiding rubber chickens is your kind of thing...

Happy gaming!

Hi guys,

It's time for some quick news!

Some users have reported technical issues with certain Nvidia 40XX graphics cards, such as the game freezing or crashing. As a result, I am updating the game engine in the hope it will help resolve the issues. I'll need to make sure this does not introduce new problems before releasing the build.

More new on that soon.



Other than that, the much requested soundtrack for Cash Cow DX will land on February 3rd!
Feel free to wishlist it here to be notified when its released:

On a sidenote, Looney Landers which is launching on February 5th, will also have the soundtrack available from day one! Those who remember the unique Sound Blaster and AdLib FM sound cards will get warm fuzzy feelies here...

Hi everyone,

It’s been a while, so here’s the latest on what’s going on!
Let’s start with the fun stuff.

[h2]Pricing:[/h2]
To continue delivering high-quality gaming experiences, I will be adjusting the price of all arcade titles to better reflect the value and effort behind them.

Starting early 2025, all titles will be priced at $7.99 USD (or your local currency equivalent). This adjustment will apply across all stores and platforms.

On the bright side, this change allows for higher seasonal discounts and even better bundle deals, so keep an eye out for those!



[h2]Soundtracks:[/h2]
Unrelated to the price update (though potentially beneficial too) is the news that I’ll soon be releasing game soundtracks as downloadable content (DLC). This is something many of you have been requesting for a while, and I’m happy to finally make it happen.

Starting in early 2025, soundtracks will be available on the store pages for all my games, except Donut Dodo. This also means that future ports of Donut Dodo, most notably for legacy consoles, will feature a completely new soundtrack!

[h2]Donut Dodo Updates:[/h2]
While Donut Dodo is content complete and will remain so, I had planned to bring over some quality-of-life improvements from Cash Cow DX, like a practice mode and additional options.

Unfortunately, updating the game to the latest engine version failed miserably, and after several months of effort, the project is currently on hold. I haven’t given up, though, and I’ll revisit this in the near future and look for alternative solutions (including rewriting the game without an engine).

[h2]2025 and Beyond:[/h2]
There’s so much exciting stuff on the horizon and 2025 is shaping up to be a fantastic year for arcade gaming! While most of my projects remain under wraps for now, I can share that my upcoming party arcade game, Looney Landers, is progressing nicely.

Mark your calendars: the game is on track for release on February 5th, 2025.
If you haven’t already, feel free to wishlist it here!


Thanks for your continued support, and as always, take care!

Hey everyone,

I’m thrilled about the positive feedback that Cash Cow DX has been getting, and your support means the world to me.

That said, reaching 50 reviews or more is really important for a game to be featured in search results on Steam, thus helping more players find it.

At the time of writing, Cash Cow DX is halfway there.



If you have enjoyed your time with the game, I would greatly appreciate you leaving a little review for the algorithm.

Thank you so much!
