  • Fix for boss chase music not playing in the exterior - 10 August 2026

    Fix for boss chase music not playing in the exterior Thanks sknahT

  • Fix for tower level checkpoint getting overwritten - 10 August 2026

    There was a checkpoint in the tower level that was taking priority over every other checkpoint that has been fixed. If this happened to you then your save file may be permanently bugged. In this case, here is a save file that starts you out at the beginning of the tower level. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ySdMlZiZl6bxSFsdKtTpniKCEx6QmSlz/view?usp=sharing Download that and then navigate to this folder or you can copy paste this into your file explorer. Don't forget to change the username to your pc's name C:\\Users\\YOURNAMEHERE\\AppData\\Local\\Backpack_BoyThen just replace the save file with the one you downloaded If you need help or find more bugs then please post on the steam forums or you can join our discord and let us know. Discord: https://discord.gg/DKD5pDSk2 Thanks! -chuck

  • The Backpack Boy draws near... - 11 April 2026

    Hello Backpackers,It's been quite a while since our last update. We've been hard at work building the rest of the game, which is now very close to release(for real this time). We're not ready to give a release date quite yet, but I figured it would be good to bring the demo up to date with all the changes and improvements we've made since our last update.This has been a long time coming for Nick and I and we can't wait for everyone to get their hands on the game and see what we've been cooking up.Thanks,ChuckHere's some screenshots and stuff
