PUNCH CHAMPS – Feedback Update

Hi Champs!

A huge thank you to everyone who has downloaded the demo, played a few rounds, and shared feedback. We’ve hit 100+ wishlists and nearly 1,000 downloads, and your comments have been invaluable in shaping where Punch Champs goes next.

This update is focused on player-requested changes, key fixes, and a brand-new level. We’re excited to share the progress so far:

✨ New Content

• London Barn (New Level).

• New Level Select Screen.

🎮 UI & Menu Improvements

• Main Menu button fixes for smoother navigation.

• Mouse support added for main menu navigation.

• Controller layout adjustments to make button prompts clearer.

• UI CTAs updated with “Locked” states where relevant.

🕹️ Gameplay Fixes

• Jump input timing issues resolved.

• KO bodies no longer hover in the air after knockouts.

• KO Counter now updates correctly when players fall off.

• KO Counter bug fixed for Last Man Standing mode.

🔊 Audio & Presentation

• Added pitch randomisation for punch SFX to increase variety and impact.

• Removed camera slow-motion effect on KO for a snappier flow.

• Removed cinematic zoom on KO (feedback noted this was distracting in multiplayer).

• KO SFX now plays once at the end of the round, reducing repetition.

💛 Thank You

Big thanks to our lead developer Lucas (@kiske94) for driving this update, and to the community for helping us refine the game through your feedback.

Keep the comments coming — we’re already working on the next batch of improvements. Until then, see you in the ring!
