- July Development Update - 22 July 2026
Hey there everyone!It's about time that I give you an update on what I've been working on for 1.0! I've been adding a lot to this update and I'm not going to fully share absolutely everything, but I should give you an update after a month of nothing.Everything in this Update is a Work in Progress (WIP) and is not finalized.World 4 - SangoSango is the final world in The Stickman which features much more difficult gameplay. For some of the levels, the parkour sections are based on moving platforms. When it's not activated it's in position 1 and when it's activated it moves to position 2. I did a lot of fun stuff with this and it makes the movement pretty difficult.Something I messed with in this world was a stormy environment. I got a number of things working:Rain Falls from the sky (harder than it seems when the player is moving so fast)Little Rain Puddles from impact on the floorRain Dr…

- April Development Progress - 25 April 2026
Hello Stickman!I hope you've been enjoying The Stickman so far! I was doing a monthly update before release and I'm going to keep it going. I am still not ready to release World 3 (about 70% done right now) but I want to show the progress I've made so far and tease what's coming. This is going to be mainly about the challenges of development and not about the features themselves.World 3: TerkusThese levels have you constantly swapping between the Past (Ice) and the Future (Lava). The difficulty takes a leap in this world but I think the levels are really fun. Getting to this environment took several iterations. Figuring out how to change materials and models between past and future was an interesting challenge. Because every single model has to work both ways.Another challenge was figuring out assets that exist in the future that don't exist in the past and vice versa. Objects that disa…
- Small Patch 4/1/2026 - 1 April 2026
This is a small patch that fixes a few issues:Fixed issue where already collected Letter Targets were not showing the correct visualsFixed issue with climbing animation speed interpolationFixed issue where some Killzone triggers were visibleFixed issue where enemies would immediately start firing after spawning instead of checking for line of sightContinue sending bug reports through the Discord and Steam Forums and I'll keep fixing them. Luckily, I haven't had that many so far!
- The Stickman is OUT!! - 31 March 2026
The Stickman is OUT!!!5 years and 1000+ hours later, The Stickman has released! I'm so glad I can finally get this project out and see what kind of skips and speedrunning techniques y'all come up with. Join the community and share your own speedrunning clips, goofy skins, custom levels, and funny moments by joining the discord!The Stickman DiscordHow to Submit BugsWhile I think I eliminated 90% of all bugs, I'm sure y'all will break something somehow, my preferred method of bug reporting is in the discord which you can join with the link above. Otherwise, you can also submit bugs in the Steam Forums but I might be less responsive.What comes next?There are still 8 more levels minimum coming to The Stickman along with other PvP modes and maps I have planned! I do not have an ETA but my personal goal is to have world 4 out by end of Summer.GLHF!
- The Stickman Delayed Until March 31st - 3 March 2026
Hello fellow Stickman!I absolutely hate to do this, but I have to delay The Stickman's release until March 31st. At this current moment, Steam has not yet approved the game build, which means I cannot release the game at all. There's nothing I can do about this, I'm at the mercy of Valve right now. A process that was supposed to take 3-5 days has taken 2 weeks.Unless the game gets magically reviewed in 20 hours (It took 3 days before, which is normal) this will be the reality. So in the meantime, I'll be adding a ton of stuff I was going to add right after release, and it'll just be included in the initial release now. I might even get to squeeze World 3 in!Again I'm sorry to do this, but there's nothing I can do. I was really looking forward to sharing this project with you all tomorrow, but it seems it was not meant to be.Note: It might say an incorrect date on the Store Page, I have…
- Janurary 2026 Development Update - 30 January 2026
You can also see this development update in video form, it will showcase a lot of these in further detail. Hey there Stickman!In this development update, I'm going to go over everything that's been worked on this month. Along with this development update is an update to the demo which you can try for free! A lot has been added and a lot has been changed so let's get started!GeneralThere are a few changes and additions to the movement this month to make your stickman more controllable.Increased Jump Air ControlSomething added was more air control when jumping. This is only really noticeable in close quarters when going less than sprint speed but it makes PvP tight movement easier.ClimbingAn addition to the movement is Climbing. You can now jump to a surface and start climbing it. You can only attempt to climb a surface once though, if you try and relatch to a wall, you will slowly fall.…
- November & December 2025 Development Update - 1 January 2026
Hello Stickman! It's time for another development update. This one covers November and December since someone forgot to do one for November, not pointing fingers at anyone.PvEAuthor Times IntroducedSomething I've added to each level is author times! You will get a medal from Bronze (C), Silver (B), Gold (A), or Titanium (S) depending on your time on the level. In order to get S rank on a level, you have to get within ~10 seconds of my best time.Level Editor Video TutorialsSomething else that was added during a demo update was video tutorials in the level editor to show how to do basic operations in the level editor. I might expand these later depending on questions I'm commonly asked in the Discord.World 1 Levels RedesignedIf you played the demo, you might notice that the first levels combat sections were redesigned to have more of a flow. I've gone ahead and done this with all of the w…
