Full Steam announcements and update articles for this title.
And we're live!!
FixForce is officially out of Early Access! Welcome to Version 1.0.
As a reminder, here's what's new:
Brand new level: Introducing RESORT, an all-new level to challenge even the most seasoned Fixers at a half-finished tropical getaway!
New interactive props: Including a Mystery Barrel with randomised (occasionally catastrophic) effects and a Helium Canister to wreak squeaky havoc on proximity chat.
New cosmetics: Including the hilarious and cumbersome Big Head Mode, unlockable upon completion of key challenges.
New emotes: Steal each other's noses and play Rock, Paper, Scissors with our newest emote drop, also unlockable with challenges.
Improved onboarding: Following player feedback during our Early Access period, we're adjusting the experience so it's focused less on figuring out mechanics and objectives, and more on getting your hands dirty and having fun.
Overall optimisation and accessibility updates: We've optimised art and VFX for max performance and punch, and we've tweaked a few key movements like jumping to feel super fun and fluid. Our accessibility goals were clear from the start, and in 1.0 we'll be able to deliver a product playable by a lot more people.
We've had so much fun building this ridiculous little game, and we're incredibly grateful to each and every one of you in the community who played and gave us your invaluable feedback during the Early Access phase. The game is better because of you. Thank you.
As usual, let us know if any bugs crop up, and please enjoy! If you have the time and inclination to share FixForce with your friends and community, that would mean the world to us. No pressure at all! But word of mouth is the most valuable marketing for us and we'd love to see more people enjoy the game.
If you find time to play this weekend, remember:
Keep the Foreman happy
Be VERRRYYYY gentle with disco balls
Never leave a bot behind (unless it would be really funny)

FixForce is leaving Early Access, with 1.0 Release coming Friday, 17 July 2026!
All our thanks to everyone who has kindly given us the invaluable feedback we needed to get this game polished, make it as fun and ridiculous as possible, and push the boundaries of what we set out to create.
Brand new level: Introducing RESORT, an all-new level to challenge even the most seasoned Fixers at a half-finished tropical getaway!

On Friday, when we move out of Early Access and into full 1.0 release, the price of FixForce will go up.
Full price will be $7.99 USD. We want to give you this heads up now so you can grab it at Early Access price if you wish!
Thanks again for all your support on our first self-published game! We hope you enjoy seeing FixForce in its next phase.

It’s time to get crackin' on some Easter treats, Fixers!
Today we’re dropping our very special Easter Patch, which includes holiday-themed cosmetics and the much-requested ping you guys have been asking for!We’ve got two Easter costumes that are yours challenge-free right now!
Costume: Easter Bunny
Costume: Easter Egg
Laser Pointer ‘Ping’: You can now point using down on the D-pad or Q on keyboard and it will send a laser from your finger to wherever you’re pointing, making long-distance communication a little easier.
Lobby: Updated with more fixable bits and places to use batteries to teach new players the basics!
Difficulty Balancing: Made the game a bit more forgiving (especially on lower difficulties) by adjusting quotas, making some of the start and end locations a bit easier, and reducing fall damage
All Maps: Polished art even more!
Spring Mine: Increased the detonation time slightly to make them easier to catch mid-jump
Emotes Audio: Updated the audio on a bunch of emotes
Health Barrel: Updated so it negates fall damage when you land on it
Fixed a bug that meant players weren’t getting the Cat Ears hat when they met Challenge criteria
Fixed a bug where the Bucket was stealing duplicate items
Fixed a bug where you couldn’t exit out of the Finger Guns emote with another action
Fixed an issue where faceplates would break when a client left and rejoined the same lobby
Various map adjustments
Thank you SO MUCH for your support on FixForce so far! We're eternally grateful.
If you have a moment, please consider leaving us a review <3

NEW STUFF
Prop: Cutout Mascot - Inspiration on tap!
Costume: Banana - Unlock on completing Hard+ difficulty day.
Costume: Traffic Cone Hat - Unlock Clue: A walking talking traffic bot

FixForce Early Access is out today for $5.99! Get fixin' with your friends and let us know what you think.
We want to be really transparent about our pricing, so here's what you need to know:
$5.99 is the Early Access price
We've gone with regional pricing, which means the currency of some countries is weighted lighter than others to keep things as fair as possible
The price of FixForce will increase for full release later this year
And here's what you get with FixForce right off the bat, before we start adding more content during the Early Access period:
62 unique props
32 cosmetics options (faces, hats, body materials, full costume sets)
8 emotes
5 different enemy types (number of enemies scales with your selected difficulty level)
3 levels, each with layouts that are partly authored and partly randomised
3 battery variants
3 types of odd jobs to do beyond your 2 main fixing objectives per round
During Early Access, FixForce is still very much in development! That means you'll see a few bugs here and there (feel free to report 'em), and it also means we'll be adding more content and making adjustments and additions according to your feedback.
We want to hear what you think so we can make full release later this year the best it can be, so don't be shy!
Now let's get fixin' 🤖🔧
