We got a big list of improvements (of which some were requested on the forums) and bug fixes for you! If you have any suggestions or issues do let us know on our steam forum.
Improvements:
General:
Reworked Jump (characters now jump towards input direction instead of facing direction) This makes parkouring in the game a lot easier
After getting up there is a small jump cooldown to avoid accidental (suicidal) jumps.
Lowered jump cooldown from 1.5 to 1.0 seconds.
Players that already have all items can no longer claim/open a cosmetic drop
The left mouse button can now be used to Push
Improved colliders in Character Select. Can no longer walk or be pushed out of sight.
Slightly improved camera perspective
Penguin Map:
Penguins have been balanced (patterns progressively get harder)
Penguins start spawning later
Penguins have been synced
Quarantine Mode:
Added a victory close-up camera to Quarantine
Made it more difficult to camp Quarantine exit. - Exit camera laser keeps shooting when in range instead of just once - Exit camera vision range increased
Tiger Map:
You can now walk onto the first platform instead of needing to jump
Tigers and lions avoid the first platform a bit more
Bug Fixes:
General:
Marque's missing short hair fixed
Cosmetic drops kept dropping fixed
The Gorilla button in level select has been fixed
A few menu items were gone (fixed)
Online Only:
Gorilla desync fixed
Bumper Bee in a different location on client and host fixed.
A cursor stuck in the center of your screen has been fixed
Rapidly switching between shuffle and manual level select caused a game-breaking error (fixed)
Cheers, Meteor Mug Team
Cosmetics and more. Now live!
Hey Fam,
The snow has melted away in Push Your Family. In the last update, we brought you a new mode (crown). This time we are bringing you a new map, a cosmetic system with a total of 36 items, and a way to change the shuffle mode to your liking among many other things.
All items earned in the past events have been assigned, if you have any issues feel free to contact us.
New:
New Zoo Map: Gorilla
Cosmetics - 27 hats - 9 costumes - Cosmetics vending machine - and a plane that drops cosmetics... sometimes.
Shuffle customization (change up the map pool and pick your favorite)
More feedback: Face popups on when knocked out
Show cursors from other players in Online Mode
Improvements and fixes:
Improved camera for a better perspective (Makes it easier to parkour jump)
New facial expressions for all characters
New character animations for character selection, character knockout, etc.
Improved crown spawns (in crown mode)
Synced Quarantine doors
Fixed kick not working on some characters
Renamed Triggers in start menu to LT + RT
Fixed bugs
Today also marks our small studio's 2-year anniversary, what would be a better way to celebrate than with a big update.
More maps and modes are on the way and they might come sooner than you expect, so keep your eye open in the coming months.
Cheers,
Meteor Mug Team
PS: Frog hat is the best hat
Winter Update
Hey Fam,
It's the last day of the year and what better way to end it than to push your friends and family into trains and snow. So you can forget about 2020 as soon as possible.
In this update, we are bringing you a new game mode (Crown), and for a limited time, snow-covered Push Your Family. In the next update, we will be introducing cosmetics to Push Your Family. Anyone that plays the game before the winter event ends will receive some winter loot/cosmetics (in the next update).
Crown Battle Variant: Crown is played on the same maps as Battle. In Crown, you need to (you guessed it) get the crown and keep it. If you get pushed or knockout you will lose it. The first player to reach 25 points wins. Good luck, and have fun!
TLDR:
New Mode Crown
Limited Snow/Winter Event
Limited Event Cosmetics (You will receive these next update)
We wish you all a happy new year.
Cheers, Meteor Mug Team

Hey Fam,
It's Halloween time, which means you can now explore the maps in a new light. There might even be a special surprise (at a later time) for people that participate in this event.
Paired with the event is a 25% discount until November 1st, so only a small amount of time to grab it.
Apart from the theme we also added some small improvements:
You can now invite friends through steam, without using the room code.
Improved syncing of hazards
Improved the big winner screen
No more stinky cloud when not in Quarantine
