• A message from the team - 26 September 2025

  Hi everyone.This is one of the hardest messages we’ve had to write. Over the past few months - and especially during the Early Access launch - we’ve shared our excitement about building GLUM into a full, expansive experience, and encouraged you to support us through Early Access. Many of you did just that, offering not just your money, but your time, feedback, and belief in the game’s future. We’re incredibly grateful for this. Unfortunately, we’ve made the difficult decision to freeze active development on GLUM, effective immediately. This is not the outcome we hoped for, nor the one we promised. Despite our best efforts, GLUM didn’t reach the level of sales we needed to sustain continued development. As a small studio, that means we simply don’t have the resources to finish the roadmap as planned. Honestly, we do not know if GLUM will ever get the updates, we think it deserves, as we…

• THE GLUM ROADMAP IS HERE! 🎉 - 6 June 2025

  Alright goblin gang - it’s time to show you what we’ve got cookin’ for GLUM’s Early Access journey! We’ve been kicking ideas around, listening to your feedback, and now we’re ready to share our Living Roadmap with you.Living means it might wiggle around a bit - because your ideas and great suggestions might shift our priorities. BUT without further ado, here’s what you can look forward to for now 🛠️ ONGOING STUFFWe’ll be squashing bugs, optimizing performance, and dropping Quality of Life improvements on the regular. Also, we’re always lurking in Discord and the Steam forums, so your feedback is constantly helping us shape GLUM into the best goblin-smashing, boot-slinging, ragdoll-flinging game it can be.🎪 UPDATE 1: GLUM GOES TO CLOWN TOWNSend in the clowns. And then kick them. A brand new festive level that’s as cheerful as it is concerning Two new enemies you’ll love to hate Shiny n…

• Hotfix - 0.0.2 - 28 May 2025

  A new hotfix is now live with a number of adjustments and bug fixes based on recent feedback and reports. General - Resolved an issue where music would occasionally not play correctly. - Gnomes will no longer spawn a tombstone after being destroyed, since they were causing some issues (we will work on getting them back!) Enemies - Fixed a bug where enemies that had been Stomped would sometimes not be able to get up. Combat Trial - Increased the thickness of the magic barrier in the Combat Trial to prevent enemies from passing through. Bootcamp - Fixed a couple visible gaps in the walls. Items The following items can now be picked up: - Spoon - Plate - Bowl - Ham slice Fruit crates will now correctly spawn the following grabbable items: - Apples - Cheese - Ham - Mushroom Additional grabbable items: - Coins from Piggybanks - Cauldron from the Hero Pitstop Thank you again for your continue…

• Hotfix - 0.0.1 - 23 May 2025

  Known issue: The game may play the incorrect music in the Arena Mode / Story Mode. Temporary fix for this would be to respawn in the pause menu and then the music should play correctly. Hotfixes: Added measures to hopefully circumvent issues of mouse detection and accidentally clicking through or outside the screen of the game when in windowed or windowed-borderless mode. We *may* have fixed this, but the game now starts in Fullscreen by default which *seems* to be a way to solve the issue for now (meaning Borderless and Windowed could still cause issues) Added Arena Mode button to Victory Screen. Fixed an issue in Hub that caused Cassiopeia to sometimes play two dialogues on top of each other. Added an animation on Glum’s hands, which indicate that the Lob-Kick button has been pressed (KeyboardMouse: Q/ALT, Controller: Left Bumper).

  Alright, you beautiful, boot-loving menaces - only two more weeks till it goes down in goblin town! GLUM is officially stomping its way into Early Access on May 22nd, and we couldn’t be more excited (or moderately terrified) to unleash this chaotic little goblin into your hands. Over the past months, we’ve been testing, tweaking, and occasionally breaking things in spectacularly stupid ways. Thanks to the absolute legends in our Discord community, we’ve squashed bugs, fine-tuned our glorious ragdoll physics, and even thrown in a brand-new boss fight (OMG they said the word). Plus, for those of you with a keen sense of fashion — yes, we've added new boot cosmetics, because your foot deserves to look fabulous while it's embedded in someone’s face 👢 What to Expect From Early Access Early Access isn’t just a label for us - it’s a promise.

• Demo Update – Save Data Fix (we gave it the boot) - 20 February 2025

  Greetings, Goblin Gang! First off, massive boot salute to @Dynamo on our Community Discord for spotting a sneaky little bug skulking around. Turns out, some old save data was lingering like a chicken ready for the kick, refusing to let you experience the fresh, crispy content we lovingly prepared for Steam Next Fest. Unacceptable. Now, despite the flu currently speedrunning a 100% completion run on Team CinderCat, we mustered up our goblin strength, sniffled our way through the code, and kicked that bug straight into oblivion. That means you’ll now load into the right level every time, so you won’t accidentally miss out on, say… a certain mysterious church 👀 ⚠️ Heads up! This fix means your game data will reset ONCE after updating. It’s a one-time boot to the system, and after that, your progress will save properly, and you’ll be back to wreaking havoc in no time! Thanks for being the…

  Hey Goblin Gang! Three short updates for you! We are still working towards a new version of the Demo as well as preparing for Early Access later this year! So what have we been working on lately?

We are still want to pimp out the style system, but we are moving in a good direction! We also just this weekend had a bigger test, where we have gotten a lot of awesome feedback from testers. Based on that feedback, we will working on improving: Even more different Menace Actions, that emphasizes your gameplay! Ideally we would love for it to be able to react to everything you do, but at the same time not over do it. We are still playing around with the general movement speed of Glum, as some people find him a little too fast and difficult to control whi…

• Devlog 1 - What's been brewing - 17 December 2024

  Hey Goblin Gang! We thought it might be nice to know a little about what we’re working on behind-the-scenes, so we’ll try to put out a few short devlogs when we’ve go interesting stuff to share! Ever since the demo was released, we’ve been hard at work assessing some of the feedback we’ve received from you guys - and while we appreciate the feet pics, it is “feedback” and not “feetback”… So now that’s in the clear, let’s bring you up to speed on what’s been happening here at the “Bootcamp”. We’ve had a lot of focus on really bringing out the menacing parts of our combat, while also trying to up the Action-feel of GLUM, so we’re currently testing the following: We’ve upped the pace of combat by quite a bit. Glum is faster with shorter cooldowns Enemies die faster, and there are a lot more of them (like, A LOT) Encounters have a lot more environmental dangers for you to take advantage off…
