Repeated intro
Hello all Fly Guys, Gals, and Pals!
What changed
- Events
- Gameplay
We hope you have been doing great to start out the 2026 year. This is a big update, as my goal here is to not only show our progress in developing FLY GUYS, but also talk about our plans for launch later this year.
As a huge TL:DR, here are some of our major milestones:
Completed Cutscene and Scripted Event System
Game's Story and Cutscene Script is Complete
Roosthill Farms and Elemental Isles in progress
Subway System in Birdhatten is complete.
Shuffle boarding, Ring Toss minigames complete, more minigames to come!
New characters!
Approval from both Xbox and PlayStation! :D
Many other additions, improvements, and tweaks.
New Islands: Roosthill Farms & Elemental Isles
Our team has been hard at work on the sixth and seventh islands in the game, called Roosthill Farms and Elemental Isles.
Roosthill Farms is a calming traditionalist farming island, home to hospitable Chicken Guys and Hen Gals. Here, there will be a corn maze to take part in, some Harvest Festival minigames, and the Ol' Yolk Tavern bar.
Say hello to Chicken Guy and Hen Gal! Their 3D models are complete! Shoutout to our modeler Kam! Also, shoutout to Nick S for rigging and animation!
Elemental Isles is to the south of The Archipelago. It is a very quaint, quiet island, with the birdfolk there focused on the 5 elements, and spirituality. It is home to dignified and honorable Crane Guys and Crane Gals. It is home to two spire towers, a large Elemental Cave, and an overarching puzzle of finding the 5 elemental pieces to open up the cave itself.
Say hello to Crane Guy and Crane Gal!
New Areas in Birdhatten!
The subway system in Birdhatten in almost complete! Players will be able to go underground in the big city of Birdhatten, explore, and take the Feather Transit across the city. Additionally, there will be feathers and challenges in here as well, so be on the lookout! Shoutout to our awesome artist Austen!
Along with the subway system, we also have the lighthouse in Birdhatten complete! This is a major landmark in the city, one where you'll be able to see the light at the top of the tower from far away. Shoutout to the amazing artist Shari!
Got some amazing looks trees by Shari in Birdhatten, too!
New Minigames in The Archipelago!
Throughout the islands, we are planning to have at least 1 minigame per island. So far, we have 1 minigame for Village Spire, 2 for Bone Dry Desert, and 2 for FrostBelly. Shoutout to our awesome minigame programmer, Kyle!
Village Spire has the Basketball minigame. Bone Dry Desert has a ring toss and bottle smash minigames. FrostBelly has shuffleboarding minigame, as well as the hockey minigame.
Story Script is COMPLETE!
The FLY GUYS story script is finally complete! This 88-paged document contains every major island, and every single cutscene the player is going to experience throughout the game.
While it would be fun to drop the link to the ENTIRE document so you all can read it yourselves, I feel it is best to keep all of it a surprise for players when they go to play it themselves. Suffice to say, you all are in for a real treat.
A big part of making this game has been developing systems first, then building the content later. We have built almost every major gameplay system in FLY GUYS. Now, it
