- THE PRE-ANNIVERSARY UPDATE (AND MORE!) - 4 August 2026
TAILS. TAILS. HEADS. TAILS. TAILS. HEADS.Hello and welcome to THE PRE-ANNIVERSARY UPDATE for Unfair Flips! The game's been out for almost a year now (a little more than ten months), and it's time to give it a proper retrospective. This includes:DEVELOPER COMMENTARY MODEWhen you start up Unfair Flips, you'll have the option to activate Developer Commentary Mode. This option swaps the "standard" tutorial text for a series of mini-essays on the inspiration and work that went into Unfair Flips, and what happened in my life after and because of it.It's one of the most personal things I've ever put online - it's the story of creating a game, but it's also the story of the many difficulties that followed. When I put out Unfair Flips, I was incredibly sick, and the months that followed were some of the hardest of my life. This is the story of how I nearly died, and how I came back to life.STEAM…
- Incoming Unfair Flips update + Beta Test Signups - 1 July 2026
TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS.Hey, y'all! Hope you're doing well. Two bits of news for you today!Incoming Unfair Flips UpdateFirst off: a new Unfair Flips update is coming in the not-too-distant future! This almost-anniversary update will add a developer commentary mode and Steam community items!The development of Unfair Flips was a very strange one, and its place in my life was even stranger. It's a tale of luck, misfortune, disease, poison, and success from the shadow of failure. For a moment, it seemed as though Unfair Flips would be the last game I'd ever get to make. This is the story of how even a DEADBODY can come back to life -- with time, care, and a whole lotta luck.Beta Test SignupsAs previously mentioned, we're working on a new horror/roguelite game: 500 FINGER FILLET! The game is nearly ready to launch its demo, so we've been running a series of beta tests to get…
- Announcing 500 FINGER FILLET - 23 April 2026
Hey y'all!Let me introduce you to 500 FINGER FILLET.500 FINGER FILLET is a horror game collaboration between myself, Mickey Sanchez, Josie Brechner, Jacob Stratton, and Surasshu, under the studio title of DEADBODY Games. We've been working on it since January, and I'm excited to show you what we've got!I've also added in a button in Unfair Flips to check out the game! It only shows up at the beginning and ending of a run, so hopefully it's not too intrusive. (There's also an interstitial popup when you click it so you know you're going to a horror game. I don't wanna spook anyone who doesn't wanna be spooked!!)EDIT: Due to popular demand, I've also just added a "don't show again" button in the main game. Now you can flip your coin ad-free, if you like!Thanks for reading! I hope y'all enjoy 500 FINGER FILLET. It's very different tonally from Unfair Flips, but there's a LOT of continuity…
- THE FLIPS ARE UNFAIR AGAIN. - 2 April 2026
TAILS. HEADS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS.Yesterday, due to an error in judgement, we pushed out an update that made the flips fair. A lot of you hated that! Specifically the terms "miserable" and "psychological torture" were used to describe the experience. I am listening, and I am learning, and I have made the flips unfair again.If y'all would like to continue playing the April Fools update, including the saved progress you made in that version of the game, you can use the beta code ultimategamer to retain access to the update forever! For everyone else, your game has been brought back to normal, including whatever normal save file you were playing with before the game was covered in gamer slime.Thank you all for playing the April Fools update! Back to the normal coin flip mines with you!Good luck, Heather FlowersTAILS. HEADS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS.
- THE FLIPS ARE FAIR NOW. - 1 April 2026
HEADS. HEADS. HEADS. HEADS. HEADS. HEADS.Gamers, I have heard your pain. I have listened to each and every one of your pleas. Your conspiracies that Unfair Flips is too unfair, too capricious. And frankly, I agree.Therefore, I have updated the game to fix this error. Announcing:FAIR FLIPS is the new skill-based version of Unfair Flips. For the next 24 hours only, YOU can test your true mettle in coin flipping. No more randomness; just simple skill. YOU know in your heart whether you're good at coin flipping, or whether you've been coddled by the simple ups and downs of probability. Now there is no more luck. There is only skill.And, for the top 10% of gamers, those who can TRULY NAIL that final coin flip, there's a new ending (with the exact same achievement as the old ending, but a cool graphic in-game):See how I got that in ten flips? That's because I'm the world's best coin flipper.…
- Please nominate Unfair Flips for the Steam Awards! - 26 November 2025
TAILS. TAILS. HEADS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS.It's Steam Awards season! Time for everyone to pick their favorite games, and then put those favorite games in a list, and then everyone gets to see who picked the most favoritest game.FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: What if everyone picked Unfair Flips.You know how this goes. The awards go to good games, with choices and stories and gameplay and interactive worlds. What I want to ask is: what if a game got nominated that didn't have any of that?I know it's a long shot. Half these slots are just gonna go to Clair Obscur. But imagine, just imagine, if Unfair Flips got a nom right alongside it.Together, we can make this a reality. An extremely silly reality.Q&A:Q: Why the "Best Game You Suck At" Award?A: Because it is ontologically impossible to be good at Unfair Flips.Q: What if I want to nominate Unfair Flips for multiple categories?A: You are allowed to…
- Patch notes 11/14/2025 - 14 November 2025
TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. HEADS.Welcome to the fourth post-launch patch for Unfair Flips! I finally sorted out that save corruption issue. Changes marked with 🪙 are community suggestions!Added an extra layer of backups to the savegame system! Now, hopefully, the game should be able to better handle save corruption issues, as only one file is ever touched at a time. Thank you to everyone who sent in bug reports on this issue!🪙 Added unique SFX to each of the shop options! This gives the game a little more texture, and makes it easier to differentiate what's going on by sound alone.Also, I'm excited to report that Unfair Flips has finally passed 1,000 reviews!! At 92% positive!!! That's huge!!! Thank you to everyone who left a review of the game. And also thank you to everyone who played the game but didn't review it. I appreciate you too.

TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS.Welcome to the third post-launch patch for Unfair Flips! Just a quick one this time:Fixed a bug where attempting to load a corrupted save file would cause the game to appear as normal until the ninth heads flip, at which point the coin would rise and fall without flipping and hard lock the game. Now, attempting to load a corrupted save will simply overwrite it, allowing the game to proceed as normal.I'll admit, I'm still figuring out why exactly the save gets corrupted on certain machines. I think it's something to do with German copies of Windows? If you're playing the game with your OS language set to German (or another language which has run into this bug!!), I'd love to take a look at your player.log, player-prev.log, and save.coin files! You can find them in the folder at C:\\Users\\\\\AppData\\LocalLow\\Heather Flowers\\Unfair Flips. UPDATE…
- Unfair Flips is bundling with Q-UP! - 5 November 2025
TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS. TAILS.Have you ever felt that Unfair Flips is too unfair? That you want the experience of a nightmare postmodern coin-flipping incremental game about the games industry, but with perfectly 50/50 odds?Then do I have the bundle for you!Q-UP is God's perfect e-sports game. Every match decided by a coin flip, so the odds are always fair. Behind this silly premise is an extremely deep incremental game with tons of characters, some really delicious engine-building, and a shocking amount of polish. It's also tremendously funny.If you liked Unfair Flips, I can all but guarantee that you'll enjoy Q-UP. And, thanks to this bundle, you can get it for an extra 10% off!!Good luck, Heather FlowersQ-SIDE. Q-SIDE. UP-SIDE. Q-SIDE. UP-SIDE. UP-SIDE.
