We hope you've been having a great time playing Tinykin so far!
We have great news for those who have finished the game and are eager for more (unless you’re afraid of hornets, that is). Jokes aside, you know how competitive hornets can get, and they'd like to challenge you to race in the Swiftornet!
Look for the friendly hornets Mach and Dash with your augmented reality glasses, talk to them and get ready to join the tiny racing buzz!
Time Attack Challenges
Time Attack Challenges can be unlocked when completing the main quest in each room: Transidor, Sanctar, Foliana, Balnea, Ambrose and Celerion. There are two challenges per room, one shorter than the other, and several medals to earn for each of them!
You will need to get at least a Bronze Medal on Dash’s short track to unlock Mach’s longer one. The race consists of reaching each arrow bubble as fast as possible until you cross the finish-line bubble. In the end, you will teleport back to the corresponding hornet, who'll keep you updated on your progress and rewards!
You will also find a new hornet in Chrysal Workshop called Legarfaldwho's waiting to tell you how cool you look in your new outfits. Oh, right, we almost “forgot” to tell you about those! 😉
New Outfits for Milo
For those who have already finished the game, you will find a special gift outfit in Chrysal already waiting for you! In addition, winning two gold medals in each of the six rooms will unlock more exclusive outfits for Milo!
There are a couple of secret outfits as well that you will have to discover by completing the challenges and reaching 100% game completion!
You will be able to collect each outfit reward in Chrysal and switch to them in the special Costume tab in the Game Menu.
Remember, you gotta go fast, adventurers!

🚨Exploration mission initiated!🚨
Calling all adventurers, check out your DAY 1 Agenda here as Milo to embark on a smoother journey!
- Gather tinykins to scale new heights, explore new paths and open up possibilities! Spot some adorable color-coded critters scattering across the floor? Gather these friendly pals called tinykins and fire up their special abilities to aid you in your operations.
Here’s a handy guide for you to know them better!👇
💗Pink tinykin - The muscle of the squad, ask them to move blocking objects or carry items to complete missions;
💚Green tinykin - The ladder of the squad, ask them to stack up and send you to higher grounds;
💙Blue tinykin - The electrician of the squad, ask them to revive the household devices and brew wonderful results;
❤️Red tinykin - The bomb of the squad, not happy with what you see in front of you? Ask these hot tempered guys to get rid of them and jazz up the party with some explosive effects!
💛Yellow tinykin - The bridge of the squad, ask them to connect seemingly massive gaps and build a path for fellow pink tinykins to fulfill their missions.
- Utilize and upgrade Milo’s versatile capabilities to reach new platforms and travel across great distances! Milo might have been shrunk down in size, but his versatile capabilities clearly have not downgraded.
Surf - reach your destination faster with a soapboard. Slide on the edges of the furniture or traverse across the entire room on a zipline, speed up your adventure with some smooth rides. Glide - Got stuck in a lone island or up on the top of the bookshelf? Float your way down or across gracefully to areas far away. Jump - Milo can reach certain heights even without the help of tinykins.
- Gather pollen for amazing rewards!
A challenging journey requests you to travel far and luckily you can collect some dazzling treasure on the way. Gather pollen from the top of a massive lamp, deep in a hidden gap or up above the top kitchen shelf. Sikaru, one of the local residents, will happily offer you a new bubble for your glider once you've collected all the pollen count he requested.
- Interact with locals to unravel the secrets of the house
After rediscovering Earth, mankind’s long-lost homeworld, Milo finds himself stuck in a massive house that hasn’t aged since the nineties. Curiouser and curiouser, the local insect population are remarkably sapient and chatty. Inspect the incidents and collect your clues through conversations with the locals and fulfilling their side quests. Help them unravel the secrets of the house, bring music back to the living room and scrub up the dark corners of the bathroom as you search for a way to return Milo to his ship - and ideally at the right size!
Are you ready for the adventure now? Join our communities to participate in interactive events with great rewards, share your feedback on the game with devs and talk to other explorers for clues and tips!
This August 30th, adventurers on all platforms (including Xbox & PC Game Pass) can step into the miniaturized shoes of Milo. After rediscovering Earth, mankind’s long-lost homeworld, his exploration mission goes awry as he finds himself shrunk down to the size of a bug, and the house he’s stuck in hasn’t aged since the nineties. Curiouser and curiouser, the local insect population are remarkably sapient and chatty. Take a peek at the mysteries to be solved in the trailer below.
Watch the trailer now:
Every room is its own biome, populated by strange creatures and civilizations. Help them unravel the secrets of the house, bring music back to the living room and scrub up the dark corners of the bathroom as you search for a way to return Milo to his ship - and ideally at the right size!
It’s a big job, but Milo won’t be alone. Most locals are eager to lend a hand, but none moreso than the mysterious Tinykin. These strange critters hatch fully formed and excited to help. Gather a huge swarm of color-coded pals and utilize their special powers. Scale new heights as they form ladders, explore new paths opened by moving gigantic objects, and shake things up with some explosive aid, for when problems just need to be blown to bits.
Milo is a pretty handy too, equipped with a versatile bubble-glider that lets him float across great distances, adding to his already prodigious jumps. Upgrade it further to traverse huge chasms. He’s also picked up some tricks from the locals, like riding a bar of soap like a surfboard, sliding and grinding across any flat surface or edge. Spot a spider-web? Ride that rail, direct to new adventures!

Tinykin is an innovative 3D puzzle platformer where you play as an intergalactic astronaut named Milo. Milo arrives on Earth only to find out that he becomes a tiny figure in a huge house where not a day has passed since 1991! Explore the massive, miniature environments of the house as Milo, with each room populated by its own strange cultures and presenting fresh problems to pick through.
Luckily, he has got some great companions and reliable mates. Team up with the mysterious tinykin and use their unique powers to complete missions, solve puzzles, retrieve valuable items and return home!
You can probably tell by the game’s name that those tiny creatures are very important in your adventure and you are absolutely right! Build up a swarm of these strange new friends, and have them move massive objects, build ladders, blast open sealed passages and more for you.
Let’s greet them properly, shall we? While alone they rarely pose a threat, in great numbers Tinykin’s power is exemplary.
🔻The purple tinykin🔻
They are extremely powerful despite their small stature. Solicit their help when you need to do some heavy lifting.
🔻The green tinykin🔻
They are extremely resourceful when reaching daring new heights. Gather a bigger team of the green tinykin and you can breathe the air up top!
🔻The blue tinykin🔻
Watch out and stand away from the blue tinykin, unless you want to take the risk of getting an electric shock! When working with them properly, you can restore some crucial appliances that grant you the entrance to valuable resources.
🔻The red tinykin🔻
And don’t forget to befriend this nice little guy in red. He may look like an adorable bomb and have an immensely fiery temper, but he means no harm.
That’s all for today, if you’d like to meet more local residents in Tinykin, familiarize yourself with the missions and get a deeper peak at the story, don’t forget to check out our previous Devlog here!
