Banned in Australia

Guess what.... Australia didn't like our naming for "Speed Injection" and for that they banned us.
So we were forced to change the name of speed injection to "Boot Juice". WAYYYYYYYY better now. ;)

Fixed survivor achievement and stuck animation in hard mode



Image courtesy goes to "axsf". But i thought i post it here as it is more of a funny bug. ;)
Kinda sad that this bug is gone now and also the Survivor achievement should be harder to get now.

Hello everyone,
We just fixed the weapons achievements along with a few smaller fixes.

Have a nice weekend everyone and enjoy smashing some bugs.

Achievements fix

Hello awfully nice people,
We just released a patch that should fix the following things:


  • Achievements overhauled
  • End Credits menu only has "close" option now
  • Tutorial also works in easy mode now
  • Changed naming of "Spanish" to "Latin America"


The European Spanish version is still being translated. Once that is finished we will add it as an additional language option.
Play nice and be fair.

Release bug fixes

We had an incredible launch day. But with all that fun also a few bugs came along.
Here are the first few bugs that should be fixed:


  • Retry button should work now properly
  • Added xInput controller support
  • Leaderboards were a bit broken when you haven't played a level yet
  • The highest combo number shouldn't be a huge number anymore (if it is plesae let us know. It is working on our side)


We are on the achievements problem next, get spanish translation fixed and will have russian language support soon.
