Hey Galaxy Gamers,

It's been almost exactly a month since we launched our game on March 27, 2025.
We've been overwhelmed with the feedback, both positive and constructive.

We just released an update to the game, v1.0.3, that contains optimisations, localisation fixes, new languages and bug fixes. More details about the changes are below.

• Add new languages: Italian, Korean and Traditional Chinese.
  
• Added some missing roles and names from the development team to the Credits screen.
  
• (Single player) Add the ability to skip the dialogue during the medals presentation after a single player mission is completed.

• The likelihood of minigames "Gastronomer" and "Puff Panic" to appear earlier was slightly increased.
  
• Adjust the feeling of gravity for the thrown bombs in the minigame "Gravapult"
  
• In the minigame "Gastronomer", add a label above the Gastronomer's head that appears when the Gastronomer eats players and scores points (+1, +2, etc)
  
• Allow pausing in multiplayer during the countdown
  
• (Single player) Edited some levels in Spark’s single player challenges to make them more achievable
  
• (Single player) Changed some time requirements for a few single player missions.
  
• (Single player) During the dialogue at the beginning of a level, we changed “Hold to skip”, with a single press “Skip dialogue”
  
• (Single player) Hid the "Coming soon" options for now. We want to update the game with new content in the single player campaign. But can't guarantee how soon we'll be able to do that.

• Fix the message on the welcome screen that mentioned wishlisting.
  
• Fix localization issues that were sprinkled around the game. In some cases, certain labels weren't being localized. In other cases, the font wasn't being updated on some labels.
  
• Fix some bugs in the minigame "Event Horizon". One bug sometimes caused notifications to appear too often on the right of the screen when ghosts would die. Another buy caused planets to sometimes be placed on top of one another.
  
• Fix a music playback issue in single player when launching or being asked to launch the tutorial.
  
• Change the method of rendering character outlines- it is more efficient.
  
• The glyphs in the tooltips within the practice area change depending on the players that have dropped in.
  
• Fix a soft lock that can happen in the single player menu if you spam the back button (to return to the title screen)
  
• More small bugs and optimisations

The demo has also been updated with all the changes above! So if you're still waiting for our first sale, you can still play the demo. Thank you so much for supporting this small, Australian indie studio.

We will continue to improve the game and fix bugs for another month or so, but after that we will stop focusing on Galaxy Games and move onto other projects.

We do have some ideas for new games that will involve our Which Way Up Celestial characters. We are excited to prototype them and see how they feel. If you're interested in hearing more about that as it happens, make sure you follow our social channels below.

Hey Galaxy Gamers,

We cannot believe we’re getting to announce this. But it’s real, we’re announcing our release date today for Which Way Up: Galaxy Games.

And that date is… March 27! 🥳 🚀🎊 ☄️ 🎉 (check out our new trailer, below)

Also, a month prior to launch, we’ll be taking part in the Steam Next Fest, which takes place from February 24 – March 3.

And when February 24 comes around, you won’t just be playing the same demo. We’ve been hard at work on polishing it to within an inch of its life, as well as adding:

• Single player content (some content locked in the demo)
  
• NEW Game Setup menu! (play just one mini-game at a time)
  
• Game customisation options
  
• Bug fixes and updates to the platforming and general feel

Check out this new artwork on our title screen!

The fact that we’re a month and a half away from launch is so amazing to think about and we want to thank each and every one of you for your support these past couple years.
