- Major Game Optimization Update - 22 February 2025
First of all, we want to thank everyone for their patience. The long-awaited optimization update is finally here, allowing the game to run smoothly even on lower-end graphics cards. We've successfully achieved 40-60 FPS on a GTX 950 2GB at medium settings while preserving the game's visual quality. We carefully removed only the most demanding elements that affected older GPUs, ensuring a balanced experience without compromising the game's aesthetics. In the future, we plan to bring back ultra-realistic water and dynamic weather, but these features will require a more powerful GPU. To make this possible, we will develop a separate launcher for advanced graphics options. Additionally, we've fixed a few minor bugs, and all levels across all difficulty settings have been optimized for better performance. We’d love for you to try the game again! If you experience FPS issues or have any feedb…
- Update v3.6 - 25 October 2024
The latest changes to the main map of Only Up! Some obstacles were adjusted and the final passage was completely redone. The edge enhancement effect was removed, which also removed a special line that was visible in the distance. This effect has been removed from both the Only Up map and the Extreme Obstacles map
- Update 3.4 - 18 October 2024
Another small update fixing a few minor things, such as corrected collisions for various platforms, but most importantly added achievements in Beginner mode and Normal mode.
- Update 3.3 - 18 October 2024
n this update, we fixed a few minor issues, such as: - Fixed door sound for the client - Redesigned apple spawners - Reduced torch brightness and fixed torch sound (the torch sound no longer persists after hiding the torch) - Changed weather intensity, with more clear days and less rain We also hope to have resolved the issue with graphic settings, where it was visible even at night when using medium settings. Switching to other detail levels fixed it, but we hope it will no longer occur on medium settings either.
- Patch 3.2 - 5 October 2024
- Fixed saving position after shutting down the game - Fixed animations for NPCs - Added missing translation + translation fixes
- Major Update - 27 September 2024
After some time, we are bringing a major update to the game in which we've removed certain sections and replaced them with new content. We’ve also added more opportunities for players to help each other and introduced some new puzzles. Additionally, we’ve fixed a significant number of bugs, and most importantly, we’ve removed the "ragdoll" effect. This means that now, for example, if you throw a grenade under a player, it will launch them higher. Weapons work similarly, but the effect depends on which part of the body you hit. So, the game still allows you to make things more challenging for other players by knocking them off, but you can also help each other by using a well-aimed grenade to launch another player onto a higher platform. We believe that with this update, we’ve managed to eliminate most bugs, simplify the game’s beginning, and bring more cooperation into the multiplayer e…

There is also more wood available for building platforms than in Hard mode, but less than in Beginner mode. -Hard Mode: There are no checkpoints, no teleport essences along the way, and very little wood.
