New Game Release Date & Demo
Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a terrific summer and are now feeling refreshed and ready for gaming season! My summer, on the other hand, was quite different. No free time for me—I’ve been working my *** off to finish this new game! But that's okay :) There's still a lot of work ahead (final testing and polishing can be brutal), so I'll keep this brief. If you follow me on social media, you probably already know that Wonder Ball will officially release on November 7th. And, one month before that, you'll be able to get your hands on the demo!
With Steam's new feature allowing demos to have their own store pages, you can even wishlist the demo now. So, go ahead and do that—you won’t want to miss out!
Now, what can you expect from the demo? It will feature the entire first world of the game! Depending on your playstyle, it should take about 2 to 3 hours to complete. Please note that arcade modes and achievements won't be available in the demo, for anyone wondering. However, there’s plenty of replayability, and it’ll give you a solid feel for the core gameplay loop, helping you decide if the game is right for you when it launches.
That’s about it! I'll leave you with some new screenshots. :)
Wonder Ball - New Game Announcement!
Hey everyone!
It's been a while since the release of Office Run, and what a journey it has been! The past two years have been absolutely crazy for me. I've been pouring my heart into developing my second video game while simultaneously working on several new books and juggling a full-time job. (Definitely not recommended to anyone!) It's been a rollercoaster ride, with its fair share of challenges and health issues along the way. But let me tell you, every moment of hard work and perseverance has been worth it.
Reflecting on this journey, I'm incredibly proud of the progress I've made as a developer since my first game. I was pleasantly shocked by the positive feedback and the incredible milestone of over 50,000 copies claimed. What's even more amazing is that some players are still coming back to the game even after years. It was just a humble "test project" to see what's what. And it almost feels like a lifetime ago when I was still learning the basics of Unreal Engine and didn't know the first thing about any of it. And now, I am finally nearing the release of my second game...
Drumroll please

Hello, fellow Office Runners!
I have big news for you today! New content is coming to the game soon! DLC Halloween Run will contain completely new environment with spooky atmosphere and new themed obstacles. Gameplay’s core will come from the base game’s Arcade mode with three difficulties and will introduce new cycle system with monsters hunting the player and partial backwards running.

Added interactive tutorial – playable from Play Menu – How to Play
Now possible to hide HUD during gameplay
Several minor bugs fixed and improvements
Update 1.15 - New Arcade Mode
Hello, fellow Office Runners!
Firstly, I would like to share a few words with you. Although I have some prior experience with game development, it was very minor and so long ago that I truly feel like Office Run is my first game ever. It’s been over two months since launch and I didn’t expect anything even close to this (see image below). I would like to thank you all for playing the game and the feedback provided including some bizarre funny reviews (both good and bad).
I thought I’m pretty much done with this game after the last update. Actually, I’m working on my second game already. It’s much bigger project and it will take some time until I am ready to share something with you, so I decided to go back to Office Run one more time and added some new features based on your feedback. And I must say, I am still not sure if this is the final word. I have some ideas for the additional content, so better stay tuned! 😊
New Arcade Mode
Before update 1.15 you could play only Campaign mode. Now you can switch to Arcade with three difficulties to choose from (Casual, Normal, Hard). This mode is suitable for players who simply want to hunt highscore and don’t want to be bothered with the need of improving character’s skills and upgrading abilities. Casual difficulty has also a lot less obstacles, so now even less experienced players can enjoy the game.
You can find the full list of changes from update 1.15 below:
Added new Arcade mode with three difficulties (Casual, Normal, Hard)
Added new Highscores tables for each mode/difficulty
Magnetic Shoes upgrade updated (now possible to also change lanes mid-air)
Improved jumping
Character’s level number indicator added to HUD
Implemented anti-cheat system
Completely reworked the back-end of Highscores tables to fix the issues with too many players submitting the score at the same time (this was actually done some time ago, but there was only very small hotfix needed for the game)
Now mostly obstacles are spawning while on low energy (before only obstacles were spawning)
Information in How To Play menu section updated
Many small and cosmetic changes to improve overall gaming experience
Update 1.14
Hello, fellow Office Runners!
Another small update today. You can find the full list of changes below:
Fixed bug when player got stuck on Game Over screen after ALT+TAB
Rank status added into Play Menu
Get Promoted button is now highlighted when enabled
Skills button is now highlighted when player’s current rank needs to be improved in order to get promoted
Upgrades button is now highlighted when any upgrade points are available
Slightly improved controls
