BirkWe are bringing Birk in line with the other bosses, and he will now spawn a miniboss during his transition to the final phase as well. VRAM reductionWe have gone over a lot of the textures used in VFX and reducing their resolution where it makes sense. This should not impact the visual quality at all, but will reduce the overall VRAM used. TweaksA couple of the Cauldron Beast's animation have been smoothed outRemoved a placeholder VFX remaining in the Grandmaster's beam attackRemoved collision from rock particles in breakable plant VFX Replaced a few textures in some shaders to improve their visual qualityOptimized some VFX shadersBug FixesFixed a rare crash that could happen in the medallion drop component during level unloadingFixed a possible infinite loop with the Nova Badge where two or more enemies would constantly trigger each other's Starburst if they were next to each other…

- Patch 1.0.5 - Bugs, Tweaks and Backups! - 14 November 2025
Save BackupsSince we've had to manually restore a couple of save files that got corrupted when the game quit unexpectedly, we have implemented a failsafe to prevent this from happening again. This shouldn't affect most of you, but now the game will store backups of your saves after every run. If the game detects a broken save file, it will automatically restore your saves to the closest working files.TweaksYou can no longer lose hearts with Aster in their final eventStrangers will no longer greet you at your graduationReduced the VRam usage by reducing the resolution of a lot of textures that were too high res. EnvironmentFixed the background in the Academy Grounds - Now no longer squishedRemoved some parkour routes that gave you the ability to see outside of the intended Academy Grounds areaExtended the water around the Academy grounds to avoid being able to see the edge of it at certa…

Bug FixesFixed crashes relating to some status VFX, most often seen with Ice Fixed a rare crash that could happen in the knockback code Fixed bugs with 3 achievements that had become unobtainable. These should be awarded the next time you play, if you have met the requirements. Halved the volume of the air sniper as it was unintentionally playing at twice its volume.

- WE’RE COOKED - 16 September 2025
Hey everyone, We have decided to delay the launch of Brew.As you can guess, it is due to Hades II launching on the same day as Brew. Not only is Hades II an amazing game (that the team will be playing), the original Hades was one of our main inspirations for Brew and we do not want to ruin Supergiant's launch, jk jk.We want to give Brew the best chance possible for players to find Brew and for our hard work to shine. The extra time will also give us more time to perfect and polish the experience for all of you. Honestly, can’t believe we chose the same month as indie juggernauts Silksong and Hades II. It's a great time to be a gamer.In the meantime, here's a sneak peak of things to come:Watch on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/snowleafstudios.bsky.social/post/3lyxp365qgs2sWatch on X/Twitter: https://x.com/SnowLeafStudios/status/1967982616159944812
