Extra Note ✨

Hey everyone,

We just wanted to take a moment to say... THANK YOU!!! Hitting 100K copies sold absolutely blew our tiny hamster minds. Hamster Hustle started as a small passion project, built by a handful of over-caffeinated developers who really love multiplayer chaos. The fact that you all love it too means more to us than we can put into words.

This update took a bit longer because we had to go back and redo a huge chunk of the game’s core code. Hamster Hustle isn’t just “tag but hamsters” anymore, and the old systems were almost as chaotic as the game itself. So it was time for us to rebuild them.

The exciting part? The next update is already cooking! We’ve got another game mode on the way (one requested many times by our Discord), new hats for the upcoming season, and even a few sneaky extras you might already spot in this update, if your hamster eyes are sharp enough.

As this release wraps up, most of the team is beginning to move toward our next project. If you want to hear about it as soon as we start teasing it, make sure to hop into our Discord! But truly, thank you all for the love, the memes, the chaos, and for being the best group of hustling hamsters we could ever ask for. We wouldn’t be here without you.

Love, - The Dreamship Team
