- Green Heights will release in exactly 7 days! - 28 April 2025
Hello everyone, Green Heights will release in exactly 7 days! I want to thank you all for being with me during the pre-release phase. You might not realize it, but you've all helped me immensely in reaching this milestone. Without your encouragement, feedback, and participation in the demo, I wouldn’t have been able to create such a fantastic game. I have one last request, if you purchase the game, I would deeply appreciate a review on Steam. The goal is to reach 10 reviews as quickly as possible. At that point, Steam gives the game a significant spike in visibility. By doing this, you'll be helping a ton, and I will be incredibly grateful! Beyond that, I’m super excited to see you all on the leaderboard! For now, I’m holding back on my best time. I’m looking forward to finding a strong opponent to race against! See you all in 7 days!

- Check Point - 8 March 2025
Hello everyone! Some people wanted to have a more casual experience in Green Heights. That is why I added checkpoints. You can set a checkpoint with the C key and teleport to it using the P key. Of course, those inputs can be remapped. Using a checkpoint will disable your current run. Have fun in the terrarium! :) Let me know if you find any issues. Sam

Hello everyone! First of all, thank you all for the support and wishlists you gave to Green Heights. In just 4 days of Next Fest we doubled our wishlists! A new patch will come on Monday to fix minor bugs. Other than that, I am working on finalizing the game. If you encounter any technical issues let me know. Have fun in the terrarium! Sam
- Small Update following player feedback - 17 February 2025
- Fixed ladder bug where sometimes you could not climb up until you backed down. - Smoother FOV transition between Sprint and Crouch. - Added more friction to player movement. Your movement will be a bit sharper. - Increased the radius of the player gravity map.

- How to jumps 101 - 14 January 2025
Tips and Tricks: Let's talk about the mechanics of jumping in Green Heights. Cayote Jump To execute great long jumps, you must use the coyote jump mechanic. Basically, you have a small fraction of a second to jump after falling off an edge. This can save you some distance between leaps. Jump Buffer If you try to jump before landing, the input buffer will automatically jump for you at the moment of landing. This is helpful for precise landings on small obstacles and saves time. Jump Jump Jump Every time you jump, your movement speed increases for a short duration. To be the fastest, you need to jump non-stop. Enjoy those tips and tricks! The new and final update of the demo will be around February 10th. Also, we have a new capsule art. What are your thoughts on it?
- New Demo Update - 24 December 2024
Hey Hey everyone! Since the leaderboard update, I have been working on new features, smoother gameplay experience, and level design improvements. Green Heights now supports key bindings! Upon opening the control tab, you will be able to assign any input you want to different actions. For those who like to have more control over their landing, you will now be able to sneak using the CTRL input. This will not only slow you down, but it will also keep you safe from falling off edges. Climbing a ladder is now much smoother and faster than before! I have been learning and working on level design. Modules that were confusing or boring have been updated. The next major update will take place just before the February Next Fest, probably around mid-February. At this time, the leaderboard will reset since the level will be longer. See you all in the terrarium, and happy holidays!
- Leaderboard Announcement - 27 November 2024

- 8 Localization available - 24 November 2024
Since Green Heights has visitors from multiple countries, I figured it would be wise to localize the game. Currently, Green Heights has 8 localizations: English, French, Simplified Chinese, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Japanese. More will come in future updates. Thank you everyone for the support. Every time I see someone play my game, it brings me so much joy. See you later! I am working on a fun event for the demo!
