  • Back to Development - 19 May 2025

    Hello! 👻 It's been a while since the last update. I've been gone without a message, and I sincerely apologize for that. I had to pause development temporarily due to my studies. But even then, I was getting feedback and thinking about what could be improved. Now that I have some free time, I'm back to work with a new vision and a list of ideas. I'm planning a major update to fix old bugs, add new features, and make the user experience more enjoyable. I can't give an exact timeline, but I'll work constantly and share my progress. So, here's a list of what I'm planning to do: This app ("The Icon Battles") and its game version ("The Icon Battles: Game") will be merged into one app. This will simplify support, reduce confusion, and allow you to get the maximum out of both modes. The game will work with live wallpapers like "Wallpaper Engine". A working prototype already changed the app's l…

  • The Icon Battles v1.3.1 - dual monitor bug fix - 1 July 2023

  • Wishlist The Icon Battles: Game - 20 April 2023

    Hello! Due to numerous requests, I am publishing the game version of The Icon Battles! If you enjoyed using this app, I'm sure you'll love the game version even more. Please add "The Icon Battles: Game" to your wishlist so you can be notified when the game is released. This will help me understand how much interest my game will get and will gain a motivation to continue working on it. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2381460/The_Icon_Battles_Game/ Thank you for your support!

  • Introducing Archers! - 3 February 2023

    Greetings! 🦝 I am excited to introduce a new fighter type to The Icon Battles - Archers! They are a part of the “Medieval” scenario. Archers are equipped with a longbow allowing them to attack from a distance. They have high accuracy but worse combat abilities compared to melee fighters. This makes them perfect for hit-and-run tactics, picking off enemies from a safe distance. However, they are so strong that their amount is limited to 2 per monitor to not disbalance the battles. I hope that this update will bring fresh and exciting emotions from The Icon Battles, and I can't wait for you to try them out 🏹 Full Changelog Added Archers with a few new unique mechanics:Fleeing stateAiming and Shooting statesArrow scatterAdded bow and arrow modelsAdded per-monitor spawn limit for specific types of FightersSet per-monitor spawn limit to 2 for ArchersUpdated "Medieval" Scenario description…

  • The Icon Battles v1.2.1 - Bug fixes - 1 January 2023

    The Icon Battles just got a new update with several bug fixes. One of the resolved issues is the bug that caused some icon images to be smaller than they should be. Now they should be the same size as on the desktop. The rest of the fixes are related to AI bugs, such as long chasing at a short distance, damaging an enemy when it is already too far away, etc. Full Changelog Fixed a bug when the icon images were smaller than they actually are Fixed a bug when the Fighter was chasing an enemy for too long at a small distance Fixed a bug when the Fighter could damage an enemy if it is too far away Changed axemen and swordsmen movement speed Changed axemen walking animation

  • The Icon Battles v1.2.0 - Scenarios update - 25 December 2022

    Hello! The Icon Battles have received a major update that adds new root mechanics for the variety of fights! This mechanic is called "Scenarios". They add new attacks and weapons for your icons. They can be combined, allowing you to choose how your icons should fight. In this update, two new scenarios appear: Melee - old behavior of icons Medieval - swordsmen and axemen (in the future it is planned to add more types of icons) https://i.ibb.co/vsGW3cS/blender-vs-viber.png https://i.ibb.co/9VjxT3z/text-document-beats-folder.png Scenarios can be activated in the settings menu and they will also be applied in the screensaver mode: https://i.ibb.co/85NdzYh/scenarios-menu-en.png After turning on or off the scenarios, you can restart the battle with a new button below the scenario selection. In addition to creating the scenario mechanics, this update also fixes some errors related to creating…

  • The Icon Battles v1.1.0 - multi-screen support! - 20 November 2022

    A new The Icon Battles update brings some important features. The most important thing is multi-screen support! Icons can move between monitors and engage in battles with icons from other screens. https://i.ibb.co/GVkXvQZ/414059-Dual-monitor-setup.png Also, now not only files and folders can join the battle, but also system icons, such as “Recycle Bin”, “This PC” and others. Most of the icon attack sounds have been replaced because the previous ones were too repetitive and annoying. The helper service Desktop Data Saving Service was removed due to uselessness. It was added in version 1.0.1 and was supposed to save desktop data locally for stable screensaver work. Now, if you updated from a version earlier than 1.1.0, then this program will be stopped and removed automatically. The next updates will focus on content, such as new attacks and visual effects. Full Changelog Additions / Chan…

  • The Icon Battles v1.0.2 - Simplified Chinese localization support! - 21 October 2022

    Full Changelog Additions / Changes Added Simplified Chinese localization. Bug Fixes Implemented data saving as XML on app startup. It resolves a bug with the icon images loading. Fixed Chinese characters render in icon names (▯ instead of proper characters).

  • The Icon Battles v1.0.1 - bug fixes and .url file support - 10 October 2022

    Hello everyone! The first update for The Icon Battles fixes most of the currently known issues and improves the screensaver experience by adding new settings. The application now supports files with the .URL extension. Now your shortcuts to Steam games and sites will be taking part in the battles! This update introduces a new service - Desktop Data Saving Service. It locally saves data from the desktop to make the screensaver work properly. Previously, the main application did this with the /b startup argument, but this way consumed a lot of system resources. Full Changelog Additions / Changes Added a new service that saves desktop data in a .xml file (Desktop Data Saving Service). It is a separate app that runs on Windows startup and **locally** saves desktop data every few minutes. The user can stop it in the tray. Added support for the .URL file extension. It was tested on Steam game…

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $5.99
  • Highest observed: $5.99

The Icon Battles's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $5.99, the highest is $5.99, and the first visible tracked price is $5.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

The Icon Battles's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $5.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $5.99. The latest run records $5.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $5.99
  • Current list price: $5.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records The Icon Battles at $5.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
