It has been about a year since our last announcement, but that does not mean changes are not coming. Our small team experienced a major loss in the family last year that greatly affected our day to day lives. But we are back, and that means so is our work on Fat Foods! We have been hard at work redesigning and adding new features to Fat Foods.
Future features will include:
8 stages, each containing 3 levels. There is now a story to the game that
will play out over 24 levels. Every stage will have a boss battle in the
third stage that is themed to each stage.
Unique character movement: The game will no longer center on
a character that rolls around the levels, but will instead focus more on
platforming. The current working version of the game allows the character
to walk, run, and jump; but at the press of a button, the player will tuck and
roll, allowing them to move faster. (alpha content - all images subject to change)
New character abilities: The main character of Fat Foods will hove be able
to double jump and butt-slam by default, but throughout the game, the
player will unlock other abilities as well.
The levels themselves will now contain NPCs that will interact with the
player as they move about the world.
Overhauled Multiplayer: That is right! We will be adding local and
online multiplayer to the game. We will still have the giant game-play mode
that is already in the game, but there will also be a co-op mode as well as
a competitive multiplayer mode.
Keep an eye out for future updates and releases.
We made it on the News!!
We have recently begun creating experiences for veterans with spinal cord injuries. The local news picked up on what we were doing and decided to cover it! We have a follow up tomorrow as well as next Monday, we are very excited!
New Levels and Achievements Added
The latest update for Fat Foods adds a new level to the Highway area with multiplayer still to come. We have also added achievements, for finishing each level and a hidden achievement as well.
Single monitor issues addressed!
This morning's update addressed an issue where selecting multiplayer crashes the game. As well as some minor cosmetic upgrades. Please let me know if there are any further issues.
All VR Platforms are now supported!
I have been working all day to get support working for all the major VR platforms, and I am happy to say that it looks like we are there! I just uploaded the newest build and everyone should start seeing it immediately. Please let me know if you experience any major issues. I will continue to update through the weekend.
Thank you to everyone who has purchased a copy so far!

Continuing issues with regional currency
Hours ago we updated our pricing only to find that Steam reset everything causing us to have to resubmit the pricing charts. We have also opened a ticket with Steam Support in hopes to keep that from happening again, or at least to find out why it happened.
Fixed an issue with currency.
As many at this point now know, we ran into an issue (my fault of course) where the game was only available in the US, that is incredibly embarrassing. Pricing has now been updated and should be approved very soon! So keep an eye out and we will also post an update as soon as it goes into effect. Thanks to everyone who pointed this out to us.

Thank you in advance to anyone interested in our game!
