[p][/p][p]🐧 Hey, Penguins![/p][p]We’ve rolled out Update 1.1.3 with a focus on gameplay balance, competitive fairness, stability, and quality-of-life improvements, based directly on player feedback and observed edge cases.[/p][p][/p][h2]🏆 Leaderboards - Season 3[/h2]

Hey Penguins!

A small update is live now, fixing couple of visual bugs and "Grand Tour" achievement - it was broken for a couple of days since the latest update.

Happy Friday Bouncing!

[p][/p][h2]Season 2: Winter Time is officially live! ❄️🐧[/h2][p]We’ve rolled out a fresh update packed with fixes, improvements, a new leaderboard season, and even a hidden holiday achievement. Here’s what’s new:[/p][h3]✨ Leaderboards & Seasons Improvements[/h3]

• [p]Season 1 is now complete - thank you to everyone who took part![/p]
• [p]Season 2: Winter Time has begun! Jump in and compete for new top scores![/p]
• [p]Added a Season Switcher to leaderboards - now you can easily view your results in game from previous seasons.[/p]

[hr][/hr][h3]❄️ Gameplay & Quality-of-Life Fixes[/h3]

[hr][/hr][h3]🎁 New Optional DLC: Aiming Assist[/h3][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]We’ve also released the new Aiming Assist DLC - a purely optional visual aid for players who want extra precision.
It does NOT boost stats, affect balance, or change progression.
We added it only because many of you asked for more ways to support development of the next Bouncemasters games while keeping the main game completely free and fair.[/p][p]Thank you for your support — and happy Winter Time! ❤️🐧❄️[/p]
