Just Desserts DLC is out now!
Journey to a forgotten jungle in our brand new Just Desserts DLC for Boomerang Fu. Face off against four fearsome new foes: Chocolate, Jello, Grapes, Salt & Pepper. And explore a mysterious temple complex filled with devious new traps.
INCLUDES 21 NEW MAPS
Sprint across ancient bridges before they crumble beneath your feet, slide over spinning platforms, and smear your unsuspecting enemies across the floor with a giant block of butter.
INCLUDES 4 NEW CHARACTERS
Chocolate: the sweet assailant who’s missing a few squares.
Jello: this cute contestant will wibble-wobble its way to victory.
Grapes: the courageous cluster that’s more than the sum of its parts.
Salt & Pepper: a dynamic duo who work best together.
Fixed: Chocolate would not get squished by moving blocks or explosions, often breaking the game
Fixed: seekers could kick hiders in Hide & Seek Mode
Fixed: after quitting Hide & Seek early, bots wouldn't move in first round of next Hide & Seek match
Fixed: missing bamboo colliders in Hide & Seek Mode on one level
Fixed: replays finished too early in Hide & Seek Mode

New Hide & Seek Mode
Boomerang Fu has just sold over 1 million copies! Thank you to all of you who have played our little couch game and shared the laughs with your friends and family.
To celebrate, we're releasing a new update to Boomerang Fu today that includes a brand new "Hide & Seek" game mode. We hope you’ll find it equal parts tense and ridiculous.
Update 1.3.1 Patch Notes
HIDE & SEEK MODE
Scramble to find the perfect hiding spot or hunt down your friends in this tense new game mode.
Each player gets a turn as the seeker and closes their eyes while everyone else hides. After 10 seconds, the hiders transform into nearby props and the seeker has to figure out which bamboo is real and which is a donut in disguise.
The time limit and number of seek attempts can be changed in the Modifiers menu for people who want an easier or harder hide and seek experience.
FALL PROTECTION
Are you tired of stumbling into the water by accident? Fall Protection is our brand new accessibility setting aimed at younger players and people who just want to throw boomerangs without worrying about walking off cliffs.
You can now find Fall Protection in the Modifiers menu. It has 3 settings:
Off: the classic Boomerang Fu experience
Gentle: subtly nudge players away from edges (default)
Extreme: completely stop players walking off edges
NEW MUSIC
Two new tracks have been added to the match playlist: "Just Desserts" by Paul Kopetko and "Hide and Seek" by Zorsy.
IMPROVEMENTS
When new characters are unlocked, they are highlighted in the Choose Characters screen
Bamboozled is never the first powerup collected in a match, so new players don't get confused by what the books do
Died out of bounds with your hat on? Now your hat stays behind so you can see what happened more easily.
BUG FIXES
FIXED: bots had trouble navigating on and off floating platforms
FIXED: frozen decoys sometimes left hats behind on the playfield
FIXED: jittery collision with moving obstacles
FIXED: occasional wonky controller assignment in the Pause menu
FIXED: invisible colliders in two levels
FIXED: using teleport boomerangs or portals could extinguish players on fire too soon
