addedHere we are after one week of Early Access. And we got quite a bunch of things to talk about. Christmas holidays are around the corner, there is a thing called WhatsApp Stickers, we are confessing known issues of the current version to you, we will add two new languages very soon and we want to play UpBreakers with you! If you're wondering what we're doing since we released UpBreakers about 1 week ago: The very first thing that we did, of course, was opening a bottle of bubbly - humble as we are ːsteamhappyː The initial buzz passed and we noticed that not many things changed. There's still a bunch of stuff to be done until we can call this game truly finished! So, we sat down together and brainstormed our next steps (the details of which we will devulge to you bit by bit). As a result, one of the first things we will be doing next (and are already working on) is some christmasy content - YAY!
changedChristmas ContentWe are working on a map that brings the UpBreakers into the christmas world of Santa's helpers where you find yourself in one of the two fractious elf teams. They once worked together in the same factory but greed and mistrust split them up and made them despise each other. We plan to have the Christmas map up and running when Steam's winter sale starts and hope you'll still be friends with your loved ones after a round or two!
changedWhatsApp StickersWhatsApp Stickers are apparently becoming more and more of a thing now so who would we be not to hop on that hype train and ride it hard *chooo choooo*. If you want to spread some UpBreakers "love" you can download a nice collection of stickers now from the Google Play Store and stick it to your best friends or worst enemies! Let us know what kind of stickers you're missing from the pack since we want to expand it over time!
changedPlaydates with us, the devsYes, we know how multiplayer games work. One needs multiple players... concurrently, ideally. Until UpBreakers has enough of those, we want to offer you to challenge us to a match or two in the meantime! We will warm up a lobby every week-day at around 5.30 (CET) so feel free to join us there and wreak some havoc! The lobbies can most likely be found under one of the following names: Subpixels, SuperSpaceCat, Max Emm. For the very rare case of us not being there, please don't despair! Some evenings we might just be out of the office at some fancy champaign and caviar parties with all the big business players.... yes... that's us indies. Kidding aside, we have some informative stuff, too:
addedTranslations into Russian and Simplified ChineseLast but not least: Some nice folks at fiverr supplied us with some neat localisation jobs and we will add simplified Chinese and Russian to the list of available ingame languages very soon!

Christmas Content
We are working on a map that brings the UpBreakers into the christmas world of Santa's helpers where you find yourself in one of the two fractious elf teams. They once worked together in the same factory but greed and mistrust split them up and made them despise each other. We plan to have the Christmas map up and running when Steam's winter sale starts and hope you'll still be friends with your loved ones after a round or two!
WhatsApp Stickers
WhatsApp Stickers are apparently becoming more and more of a thing now so who would we be not to hop on that hype train and ride it hard *chooo choooo*. If you want to spread some UpBreakers "love" you can download a nice collection of stickers now from the Google Play Store and stick it to your best friends or worst enemies! Let us know what kind of stickers you're missing from the pack since we want to expand it over time!
Playdates with us, the devs
Yes, we know how multiplayer games work. One needs multiple players... concurrently, ideally. Until UpBreakers has enough of those, we want to offer you to challenge us to a match or two in the meantime! We will warm up a lobby every week-day at around 5.30 (CET) so feel free to join us there and wreak some havoc!

Known Issues
From now on, we provide a list of known issues here in the communities' message board. It might not be complete but that's where you can help us! Should you find issues in the game, feel free to report it right there in the post as a comment! We will also post a list of planned features very soon!
Translations into Russian and Simplified Chinese
Last but not least: Some nice folks at fiverr supplied us with some neat localisation jobs and we will add simplified Chinese and Russian to the list of available ingame languages very soon!
That's it, folks!
Enjoy your weekend and spread the word of UpBreakers to your friends. Because multiplayer games are so much richer when playing them together ;)
