Speedrunner and tech-savvy guy MaDD just posted an AutoSplitter + splits for LiveSplit on Speedrun.com which just made it more fun than ever to get into speedrunning Verlet Swing! Maybe now is the time for someone to finally snatch that Marathon WR from BertyBob?
OUR NEW GAME: FORGE AND FIGHT IS NOW OUT IN EARLY ACCESS!
We're soooooo excited ( and nervous!) for you all to get your hands on Forge and Fight which is NOW LIVE, and we have a 15% launch DISCOUNT going on RIGHT NOW!
But what is Forge and Fight? Forge and Fight is a wacky, and fun, weapon-crafting multiplayer action game. Each round, you are given random parts to work with to create as an effective, silly or random weapon as possible, to help you fight your way through each round against other players or bots.
Outside of that, for those who have been keeping an eye on the game, we have a whole bunch of new things for you to check out, both in and out of the game:
- A new cinematic trailer! [previewyoutube="6D4jE5ioJlY;full"]
- A whole bunch of weapons to mess about with!
- Sandbox Mode to create and test your wildest weapon dreams!
- Cosmetics
- An updated FAQ which can be read on Steam! or Discord!
AND MOOOOOOORE.
Honestly, we're super proud to release the game to you all and can't wait to get all the community feedback from you to help make this the best game we can possibly make, and thank you SO much for any and all support you give us, it means the world <3
Rage has been restored!
Another update just came out today, minor but important fixes!
Here's what we did:
The saws at Level 96 RAGE are no longer disjointed
Upgraded engine for greater stability
Thanks for playing, if you haven't been able to beat Level 96 yet, this might be your chance!
Sneaky meatballs and long term support stuff!
Minor update coming out today, specifics below!
Here are the changes we made:
Did some detective work and put a missing meatball back in its place
Integrated the Twitch leaderboards into steam to offer better long-term support. Sadly this meant existing times were cleared for that leaderboard. This change does not affect any other leaderboards.
Minor stability upgrades
Thanks for playing!
Physics and leaderboard fixes!
Due to some weird physics interactions in a few levels and leaderboard inconsistencies we've pushed another patch!
Here are the changes we made:
Made rogue physics objects consistent for each run
The client will now be a bit more persistent in uploading leaderboard scores
Cleared level 31 (High Ground) leaderboard as the top scores were unobtainable in the game's current version. Sorry about that!
Thanks for playing!
Hardcore Marathon update!
Due to popular request we have tweaked the Hardcore Marathon challenge to only include 30 levels instead of the previous 100. Hopefully this will remove some of the grind of completing all achievements of the game without removing any of the difficulty.
We also added some missing localization strings, huzzah!
Thanks for playing the game, and we're looking forward to celebrate the first Hardcore Marathon winner!
Quick hotfix today!
We've noticed some issues that we wanted to fix really fast so we've just pushed a hotfix.
Stuff we did:
- Added maximum framerate cap, default is 120 frames per second but you can adjust it in the settings-menu
- Added option to turn on Vertical Sync
- Added speedometer due to popular request
- Fixed white thumbnails for community levels
- Fixed shinyness of objects in community levels
- Keybindings are now properly saved when exiting the game
- Added epilepsy warning to the splash screen
- Removed our favourite athlete from the level editor
Thanks for playing and keep swinging on!

Here's what we fixed
Palm trees now look normal again.
Tutankhamun is no longer planning something shady...
Excessive spam of restarts doesn't cause huge memory issues any more.
Known issues
Extremely rapid and excessive spam of restarts can still cause minor memory issues and may even make the game crash.

Some palm trees have escaped the chains of space and time.
Tutankhamun seems to be planning something shady...
Other stuff, please keep submitting bugs and feedback!
Our focus right now is to smash bugs.
