2024 is here!

That’s right, the year we’ve all been waiting for has arrived!

I’d just like to start off by wishing everyone a happy new year!

I’d also like to say that the upcoming Labyrinth game mode in Pongspin is progressing. New mechanics have been implemented since the last blog post, take a look!

In addition to interactive paddles, there are now collectible light bulbs and “locks” (that little grey square at the bottom of the screen), which will lock the ball in place while you aim in whatever direction you want to go in.

You can also see a person standing in the room at the center of the screen. In Labyrinth, you’ll be able to talk with many different NPCs, they’ll be able to provide helpful tips and guidance.

I’ll show a video demonstrating these new mechanics in a future update, but yeah! That’s Labyrinth, as of right now! The update is still slated for a Spring release, and I hope you’ll look forward to future updates!

Last thing I want to touch on is the new game we’ve been working on. I initially wanted make a proper announcement post last month, but I later decided that the game in its current state isn’t ready to be shown just yet. But not to worry though, it’ll happen within the next few months.

Thanks for reading, I’m super excited to show you all what else we have planned for 2024 in future blog posts!
