Bum Simulator
Bum Simulator is NOW AVAILABLE!
The Community Challenge went great - we got way past the target wishlist count. That's why, even without meeting the follower count goal, we decided on a 10% launch discount. Hopefully, that makes everyone happy!
Have Fun!
Release Date and Discount Challenge
August 26th
That's right - you will be able to explore the streets of Bumsville this month!
And how much will it cost? Only $17.99 / €14.99.
However, you have a chance to lower this price! We have prepared a little challenge for you:
By spreading the word about the game, you can unlock the launch discount!
If our Steam community group reaches 33 000 followers and our wishlist count hits 200 000, we will launch the game with a 5% discount.
If our Steam community group reaches 35 000 followers and our wishlist count hits 220 000, we will launch the game with a 10% discount.
You can really help us out by adding Bum Simulator to your wishlist. It will improve our visibility on Steam, which is especially important on the launch day!
Thank You all for your patience and support during the development process. See you on the release day!
Beta is Closed
Thank You all for submitting your opinions - your feedback was both helpful and inspiring. It seems we have just a handful of bugs to take care of - they shouldn't take us more than a month to fix.
The release is near :)

Update - New Enemies
The development is still going strong. We just finished implementing new enemies, who make the combat more challenging during the mid and end game.
Armored Bug - This armored bum can withstand a lot of beating, but his cardboard armor burns away when confronted with the fiery explosion of your Fus-Doh-Beer alchemical mixture.
Bug Lord - This nasty bum can boost the combat potential of his allies and bring them back into battle after you knock them out - you must get rid of him as fast as possible.
Grunts and Throwers - Instead of the basic "evil bum" enemy we initially had, we now have two separate variants - one focused on ranged attacks and one on close combat.
We have also made balance changes (especially in our hero needs), which resulted in fewer frustrations and more fun for the player. Splendid stuff!
Next step: implementing leveling up and skill point systems. Stay tuned!
Beta Results
While most of the beta testers were happy with the game, we got some valuable feedback that we intend to implement. To do that, we need to move our release date to Q1 2021. We know that this might seem to be bad news to some of you, but we assure you it is necessary to create an experience that both you and we will be happy with.
TECHNICAL BETA - ACCEPTING NOW!

Big News!
Bum Simulator will enter Early Access soon!
We still have a lot of things that we would like to add to the project, but it is pretty obvious that you're tired of waiting.
That's why we finished a big standalone segment of the game and sent it out to our QA team for final testing. We still have to fix whatever they report, but as soon as we know how many bugs we are dealing with, we will announce the release date!
What will you get in the early access?
- 90% of the functionality in place,
- Complete Bumsville map to explore,
- A big chunk of the main storyline,
- Alcohol Alchemy with multiple craftable potions to aid you on your quest,
- Multiple Pigeon Skills to wreak havoc on poor civilians and your rival bum gang,
- Build Mode and Customization options to express yourself with,
- Lots of trash to rummage through in the search for food and drink.
What will we add later?
- More main storyline missions,
- Sidequests,
- More Pigeon Skills,
- More Alchemy Potions,
- More enemy types,
- Balance adjusted to your feedback,
- Better optimization,
- ...and more!
We are very excited to finally share our game with you, and we can't wait to hear your opinions about it!
Creating such a big and complex project was a huge challenge for our small team, but we are more than happy with the result, and we are sure that you will enjoy it as well!
Stay tuned for the release date! And in the meantime… Enjoy this clip of home base customization :)
