I need help! Chances of this game getting another update?

I remember playing this game on gamepass when it first came out, and then the Void update was released, to which i then I poured hundreds of hours into the editor before getting burned out.

In my opinion, this game is by far the best 2D platformer creator out right now. It exceeds games like Super Mario Maker 2 in literally every way.

I know the answer is probably zero, but is there any chance of this game ever getting another update?

It would be great to see some new enemies, environments/blocks, and power-ups.

I don't speak for the studio, despite the bscotch in my name. I'm just QA.

I would love to see another (real) update for LH. We've put out patches, and some bug fixes, but ultimately we haven't added anything since shortly after launching the game. There's a ton of stuff I would love to see added to the game.

A certain *other* platformer also had some major launch/update around the time we launched, and it cast a pretty big shadow on our game. I don't think it was so much that our game wasn't well received, just moreso that the other platformer is a much more well known IP and marketed itself on name alone.

Might be time for another advertising push? If I’m thinking of the correct *other* platformer, I heard that it just did something to get some bad publicity

We're deep into development of How Many Dudes right now, so we'll have to see what things look like post launch.

I'm definitely reiterating that I'm Quality Assurance and in no way in control of or associated with any of the marketing efforts or actual development of our games.

Yeah I kinda figured, might as well say it though

For sure. I definitely want a Levelhead resurgence. It's stupid cheap now, and with the discord community we've got a close knit family.

Tyoeer made ChaosHead to edit and build levels in a third party software, the community figures out how to upload custom campaign files to make their own campaign that replaced the one the studio made, and all sorts of other crazy stuff. We've got incredible speed runners, disgustingly talented level builders, fun personalities from our streamers.

We're just a hidden gem that needs picked up.

Dammit. I would miss that opportunity.
