- Stream Animals - Paw-Linko and Mini Modes - 11 October 2024
Hey Friends! We've added new game modes for Stream Animals! We've also polished up the session handling to make a streamlined experience. Paw-Linko Animals fall through the Paw-Linko board to score points based on where they land. Mini Modes We've added shorter modes for even faster pace play. We will continue to add both kinds of modes. Brawl You and your viewers descend into anarchy as you start a giant brawl on the map. Players are knocked out one by one until only one survives! Losing Ground You and your viewers wait in anticipation for the floor to pull a vanishing act. Only one player will survive the sudden game of "Now You See It, Now You Don't"! Owlie's Knockout Owlie swoops down like a feathered assassin, bonking out players one by one with a surprise headbutt, until there's just one bewildered player left wondering if they got outplayed by an owl! Patch Notes: Setting for pla…
- Stream Animals - Parachute Mode Beta - 27 July 2024
Hey Friends! I've released a Beta version of the new parachute game mode for Stream Animals. Viewers join the match and parachute down to land on the targets. Whoever has the most points after three rounds, wins! You can add this new mode to your session rotation starting today. I've also added back in the original modes in a separate area.

- Stream Animals - AFK Mode Update - 17 July 2024
Hey Friends! I appreciate you all who are still playing the game. Over the years I've received a ton of feedback about how people play it. I originally developed it as something you would play as your main game during a stream but most people do it as more of an AFK/break time game. I've decided to embrace that. I've simplified and sped up the modes to hopefully make it more fun. This will seem like a drastic change but hopefully everyone will enjoy it. Now instead of choosing a single mode, you start a session and choose what modes to play. It will randomly cycle through the modes until you end the session. You can then see results for each match and a total for the entire session. I'm also planning on adding more quicker modes to the game that you can put in your session rotations. More details on that to come soon. Follow us on Twitter or join us on Discord to stay updated! - Smash B…
