| Patch: Shift Happens v1.1 and 20% off! | 2017-08-03 | http://www.shifthappensgame.com/images/steam/patch_v1.1_lobby_hats/steam_capsulemain.png Post Release Patch v1.1 and 20% discount! Almost four months have passed now and we have been quiet for a long time since the release of Shift Happens v1.0. To celebrate our first patch the game will be on discount for 20% for a week! :) We were working on different other projects (contract work) but collected all the feedback in the forums and tried to squeeze in as much extra time as we could to improve Shift Happens. We also felt that the hat feature we implemented was too hidden in the game to get recognized and so we changed it. Now you can simply se |

I can't believe I am actually writing these words but we have a final release date for Shift Happens: February 22nd, which is roughly one week after Valentines Day. We couldn't be happier about it! Therefore I'd like to point out again that we are very grateful for everyone that supported us by either buying the game in Early Access, giving us feedback, writing a review or simply telling us that they like it.

First off, I owe you all an apology: It has been so very quiet around the forums and the launch of Shift Happens and I am sorry for that! For everyone that was wondering why the game still hasn't launched yet, I will try to clarify and give an insight into what's happening @Klonk Games lately. Although we thought the launch would be this july we had to delay it to an - even for us - unknown date. This was back in August, pre-gamescom and now it is November already.

Gamescom 2016 is almost here and we got a small nifty update for you: You can now unlock hat's for Bismo and Plom. Right now you can simply unlock them in the Profiles tab under Settings in the Main Menu. Here's is how it works: In the main menu, go to "settings" and select the "profile" tab. In the profile tab there are two text fields for each character "Bismo" and "Plom". Put in a code in one (or both) of the text fields and hit "Enter" or just click out of the field to activate the code. A green checkmark indicates if your code was |

| Shift will hit the fan...delayed. | 2016-07-18 | http://www.shifthappensgame.com/images/steam/announcement_release_delay/delay.png Hi everyone! First off: Sorry for the long silence concerning updates here. Unfortunately we have to delay the release of Shift Happens which means the game won't make it in july. We can't tell you an exact date yet. As said a few times already, we are a small independent studio which means in order to stay alive we also have to do contract work. This also means that sometimes things don't go for us as planned because contract works means working together with people that also have schedules. I hope you bear with us. We are doing everything we can to release Shi |
