• Still Working Breakers! - 4 August 2026

  Hey Breakers 👋I wanted to give you a small update and let you know that I’m still actively working on the game.Development has been a little slower recently because I have some things in my personal life that need my attention, but I have not stopped working on the game, and I definitely haven’t abandoned it.There is still a lot I want to add, improve, and experiment with. A brand-new map is already in development, and let’s just say that the figures may need more than their usual tools to safely explore this place...Some areas are better scanned before entering. ☢️Thank you for your patience, support, feedback, and for continuing to play the game.

• Update Notes 0.12.0 - Major Optimization Update - 26 June 2026

  This update is fully focused on optimization and smoother gameplay.Even before uploading the game to Steam, I spent a lot of time trying to optimize it as much as I could. I wanted to give you the best experience possible, and even though I was never fully satisfied with the performance, I kept trying to improve it wherever I could.Recently, SenseiJamesX pointed out that the performance issues made the game frustrating to play, and honestly, I felt responsible for that. So I decided to step back, rethink the problem, and push hard to find a real solution.Thanks to that feedback, I found a much better optimization path.The game now runs much smoother, cleaner, and in many situations up to 2x faster. Resource usage is also much better optimized now, which gives me more room to add deeper mechanics, more complex systems, and stronger visuals while keeping the game smooth and enjoyable.So t…

• Still Cooking the Next Update - 17 June 2026

  Do you think I disappeared? 👀Yeah… two weeks without an update is not great.Trust me, I feel it too. I really wanted to show you what I’ve been working on already, but this update is taking a little more time than usual.The reason is simple: I’ve added a new map to the game, and this one is not just “another place with different colors.” It has its own behavior, interactions, and a different idea behind it compared to the other maps.I don’t want to reveal too much yet, because part of the fun is discovering what makes it different, but I can say that I’m trying to make it feel special in its own way, without turning it into some massive overhyped “everything changed forever” update.\\It’s still Skybreaker. Just with a new place to break, test, destroy, and probably make me question my own code a few more times.I’ll try to finish it this weekend. If it needs a bit more time, then I’m pr…
