It's time for our BIGGGG bug update, Crewmates!

Our programmers have been hard at work yeeting bugs that have been creepy crawling their way into the game. Some of them you wouldn't have seen but trust us - they're gone now. If you see any bugs disrupting your perfect Impostor plans send us a ticket[innersloth.zendesk.com]!

Make sure your game is updated to v2024.10.29 for the fixes.

• [Skeld / Polus] - We removed a controller button icon that appeared during the Inspect Samples task even if you weren't using a controller.
  
• [Fungle] - Crewmates don't get frozen in the climbing animation if a Mushroom Mixup is called while on the ladder.

Okay - deep breath! Thanks for your patience as we got through all these fixes. We're always on the look out for glitches and bugs that are disruptive. If you see any, remember to submit a ticket[innersloth.zendesk.com]!

This update is a great time to let you know that the our backend team worked tirelessly to fix the slew of hacks in the last few months which have been impacting lobbies. Combating hacks is like resolving Sabotages - when you fix one another might appear later.

Just like when you see a bug, you can report a hack to us by submitting a ticket[innersloth.zendesk.com]. Any info you can send is helpful in making sure we can keep Among Us free of disruptive behavior that takes the fun away (outside of Impostors of course).

Try to be descriptive, and if you can get pictures (or video), then that helps out even more! It's like an Emergency Meeting - anything you can add beyond "I saw a thing" gives the team a better shot at solving the mystery.


We've talked bugs. We've talked hacks. How about we wind down with some community fan art?

First up is a piece worthy of being evidence from Waffles! on X (Twitter)[x.com]! The Miles Edgeworth drop brought a lot of excitement and seeing art like this made it even better. Literally no objections.

Up next is Nyan from our official Discord[discord.com] channel! They've done a very cute rendition of their robo-bean. I wonder what operating system it runs on.

Also from our Discord, we have Whisperjein with a lovely... Mermate? Crewmaid? It looks to be making quite a splash.

Over on Reddit, Wellgooey has been croucheting some wonderful Fungle pals! I wouldn't worry about being stranded on an island if I had these cute creations for company.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful beans with us Crewmates! Your art brings the team a lot of joy. Remember to tag us on Twitter[x.com], Instagram[www.instagram.com], Facebook[www.facebook.com], Threads[www.threads.net], Bluesky[http//Bluesky] and Tiktok[www.tiktok.com] when you're sharing your creations.

And speaking of creations - not long ago we shared some cute (and scary) pumpkin carving templates[www.innersloth.com] so you can scare impress Crewmates during this spooky month. If you use the templates we'd love to see how they turned out! And if you have your own Crewmate designs tag us on our social channels above!

Ta ta for now,

Dors

All 3 sets will be gone on December 1st, 07:00 UTC (that's December 1st, 2:00 am ET and November 30, 11:00 pm PT). Beware as these cosmetics might not return in future years! Get them now so you're not haunted by your lack of drip.

OBJECTION!

... I'm not sure what to object to but it's not this collaboration, Crewmates! We've teamed up with Ace Attorney Investigations Collection to bring Miles Edgeworth to Among Us.

You know when you're close to winning a game and people start saying "Crewmates, do your tasks"? Well, our Crewmates listened! Just look at how many bugs and issues were fixed up there! We must be close to winning by tasks, right? Well, almost... there's still more stuff to work on. A Crewmate's job is never done!

Here's a quick look at some of the possible issues players may encounter after this update. If you find any more, make sure you send us a bug report[innersloth.zendesk.com] so we can start working on it.

• [The Fungle] - Players with certain screen aspect ratios may see buttons cut off during gameplay
  
• [Practice Mode] [Airship] - Dummies may not spawn correctly after an emergency meeting has been called
  
• Players may see missing letters/characters on the lobby screen with certain language settings
  
• Players with Child Accounts who become old enough to age into Adult Accounts may experience problems accessing certain age-related features
  
• The Friendlist button may be placed incorrectly after accepting a lobby invitation

Still on a roll,

Mike
P.S. As always, we can't wait to see what you think of the collab and see what you fanart works you come up with! Remember to tag us on our socials at Twitter[x.com], Instagram[www.instagram.com], Facebook[www.facebook.com], Threads[www.threads.net], Bluesky[bsky.app] and TikTok[www.tiktok.com]!

WOOOHOOO!!!

Our brand new update, v2024.6.18 is available for all players. You NEED to update the game if you want to play the new roles with everyone and see all the changes!

Buckle up cause there's a lot of fun stuff to talk about!

Update v2024.6.18 is here and brings changes under the dropship hood and some more obvious changes like our lobby settings. First up let's talk about those new roles- watch the trailer below.


Grab your bandana or maybe a shrub to hide behind as you keep tabs on a Crewmate. The Tracker has the ability to well... track a Crewmate's location via the map for a limited amount of time. Catch those Impostors in a lie about where they've been and save the crew - or not...


AAaaaAaAAAaaaAHHHhhh

No, the Noisemaker doesn't actually sound like that, but they do sound off when they become the poor victim of an Impostor kill. There's also a visual indicator of their death that appears on screen so your fellow Crewmates can run to catch the Impostor red handed (even if it's not Red).


If you've ever wanted to just up and disappear when you're the Impostor, I have great news. Our new Impostor role, the Phantom, has the ability to turn invisible! Want to escape after the perfect kill? Active your ability and sneak right by those dum Crewmates. Just remember it's for a limited time to plan your escapes and appearances well!


When you spawn in the lobby you'll notice that there's a big empty space where the lobby settings used to be! Our user interface expert, Lucy, worked really hard with our programmers to make the settings look beautiful and only a button click away. The right side of the screen now has a menu to clearly display the room code, map, number of Crewmates, privacy, and game setting presets - more on that later.

When you're a Crewmate waiting for the host, you'll be able to view the settings that are applied by selecting 'View' to pop out a handy overview menu so you can see what the host has set up.

If you're the host, you'll have a slightly different menu to tweak and dial in the settings for the next round when you select the 'Edit' button.

In our handy dandy gif (pronounce it jif and you get ejected), you can find our Game Presets I mentioned earlier! Those allow you to quickly change the setup between two options:

Core Settings - for those looking for a classic Among Us feel with no extra roles. Just you, your fellow Crewmates, and some Impostors.

Roles Galore - for those looking to spice up their lobbies by adding in roles to the mix (mmmmm, rolls). You can set the chances of the Tracker, Engineer, Scientist, Guardian Angel, Shapeshifter, and Phantom to be in the game.

We also have two presets available for Hide N Seek:

Pitch Dark - for those courageous Crewmates who want to hide in the darkness without a flashlight.

Flashlights - for those who like shining the light on things... like your Crewmates killed by the Seeker.


That's a lot of newness happening, but it wasn't just new items the team was working on. We also have a lot of patches so be sure to update your game to v2024.6.18 for these fixes:

• The Fungle - Crewmates wont be stuck in the ladder climb animation if a Mushroom Mixup happens while climbing a ladder
  
• Shapeshifters who are climbing a ladder when a meeting is called will not longer get stuck in the climbing animation
  
• Airship and The Fungle as Shapeshifter - The Shapeshift duration timer now counts down correctly under all conditions
  
• Classic and Hide N Seek - Desolation of Skeld Pet will now appear during matches and not guard their hoard in the dropship
  
• Quick Chat - Text in the chat field will have the same colors as the quick chat builder
  
• iOS - The "Pending Account Deletion" message is no longer hidden by the Friend List bar
  
• Child Accounts that become old enough to be full accounts will now receive permissions correctly
  
• Scientist - The battery duration timer is is no longer blocked by the settings icon on some resolution settings
  
• The Great Goalie visor now layers correctly with certain hats
  
• Skeld - An extra button no longer appears on screen during the second part of the Inspect Sample task

(Takes a deep breath) That was a whole lot of stuff! If you're still reading take a quick break yourself and strap back in for the Bug Zone with Mike!


BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! Did you think we were just crafting new roles and overhauling our menus? Nope! We've also been working EVEN HARDER to find more bugs and making sure players have the best experience possible. But there's always more to do, of course. Some players may experience the following known issues:

• Practice Mode - Switching roles while tracking a dummy will track that dummy indefinitely
  
• Lobby - Lobby updates may be shown with the incorrect icon and color under certain conditions
  
• Lobby - Controller buttons may overlap the Game Settings update text when opening certain menus
  
• Lobby - Description text may flicker when opening and closing the edit window
  
• Skeld/Polus - A controller button icon may show up during Inspect Sample task Part 1 when not using a controller
  
• Classic - Audio feedback may happen during certain cutscenes when some buttons are pressed

There might be more bugs hiding out there, so be sure to check each vent and under every mushroom like the good Crewmates we know you are. And if you do find something, submit a ticket[innersloth.zendesk.com] to let us know!

Mike
I can't wait to see what fun moments y'all clip or turn into your own fan art with the new roles! Before that, let's look at some pieces right now!

You need to find someone that looks at you the way Henry looks at diamonds. Our Discord member, Kean the Bean, really captured the feeling and in a funny meme format too.

Another of our Discord members, AQ, did a rendition of their Crewmate who I believe is ready for anything. The model of preparedness even.

Rounding out our group of three is another Discord member (seeing the pattern?), Amissinpiece, with their ultra gummy and very delicious looking Crewmate.

Great job on these pieces y'all! You can find these and many more fan art works in our official Discord[discord.com]! But don't worry this isn't the only place you can share fanart! Remember to tag us on Twitter, Instagram[www.instagram.com], Facebook[www.facebook.com], and TikTok[www.tiktok.com] with your creations and chaotic moments.

I promised to keep track of Red so I'll see you later!

🎵 IT'S OUR BIRTHDAAAAAAY HAPPPPPPPPPYYYYYYYYYY BIRTHDAY!!! 🎵

Today is a special day, Crewmates!

6 years ago Among Us was released and what an amazing 6 years its been. Every ejection, false accusation, every task completed, and friend betrayed has helped to make Among Us what it is today.



I don't know how y'all celebrate birthdays but we're celebrating by giving you a gift! Log in to Among Us between now and July 15th to receive the Mini Dappermate Hat.

Along with the free hat, we're also dropping some new items in the Bean Store so you can party (and sabotage) in fine fashion. I'm a big fan of the new nameplates and the Henry Stickmin themed visor personally.

Thanks for being a part of our wonderful crew,

Dors

Hey Crewmates! You're famous! You're all famoussss!!!!!

Here is the first ever look at the title trailer for Among Us... the animated show! That's right, it's a whole series production based on our very own game.

Earlier this year the entire voice cast was revealed, which included:

• Randall Park
  
• Ashley Johnson
  
• Yvette Nicole Brown
  
• Elijah Wood
  
• Dan Stevens
  
• Kimiko Glenn
  
• Liv Hewson
  
• Patton Oswalt
  
• Debra Wilson
  
• Phil LaMarr
  
• Wayne Knight

Owen Dennis is the creator and executive producer on the project, while Titmouse are the animation studio for the series. And don't worry - we're involved too! Fortebass and Puffballs are serving as executive producers, we well as Carl Neisser. You can bet it still has all the same humor Forte and Puff are known for in all our games... which is to say it's going to be very, very chaotic lol. Just the way we like it.

Enjoy! And if you want to be kept up to date on the show, make sure you sign up for the newsletter[mailchi.mp].

Hey Sloth fans! (Or Sloth haters...???)

It’s no secret the games industry has been through a lot of turmoil with layoffs and a lack of funding. Innersloth is incredibly lucky to have been able to find success and stay truly independent: no investors, no publishers, no acquisitions. This, of course, is all thanks to you for supporting us!!!

Sharing our success and seeing more indies games become sustainable is incredibly important to the team, which is why we made Outersloth, our indie game fund!

Some devs don't really get the chance they deserve, so we thought maybe we could help out a little bit. We made this indie game fund to offers deals we would've wanted to have back in our less popular Amongie days. This is our way of saying thank you to our Crewmates, players, and peers - by helping some games and devs have the funding and freedom needed to ship their games. And then we all get to play them. Which was maybe our real plan. Shh.

As seen at this year’s Summer Game’s Fest, 8 titles are currently under our funding arm:

• Battle Suit Aces, Trinket Studio – From the creators of Battlechef Brigade, lead a plucky crew to turn the tide against a star-consuming threat. Recruit ace pilots, upgrade their mecha Battle Suits, and captain your own epic tale in this card-battling RPG.
  
• Project Dosa, Outerloop Studio – From the creators of Thirsty Suitors, discover and cook new dosa recipes, help the locals, and fight off enemies in your mech to reunite with your loved ones.
  
• Mars First Logistics, Shape Shop - Build physically simulated rovers and transport awkwardly shaped cargo across the surface of Mars.
  
• Mossfield Archives, Studio Any Percent – A relaxing and beautiful game about exploring and building connections.
  
• ONE BTN BOSSES, Midnight Munchies - It's in the name. You have one button. There are big bosses to beat. Push, tap, and bash to beat them. Upgrade your ship, change your playstyle, and do it all over again!
  
• Rogue Eclipse, HUSKRAFTS – A thrilling spaceflight action game inspired by Arabesque Futurism.

New games by Visai Games (Venba) and Strange Scaffold (El Paso, Elsewhere) have also been funded, but have yet to be revealed.

Outersloth is our passion project and dream for a better, more sustainable industry. We don't want to have credit, authority, or claims over a game or company - we just want to good games to get made.

For more information on any of the games listed, visit the Outersloth website[www.innersloth.com].

WAHOO!

Helloooooo Crewmates,

Our roadmap for 2024 is here!

Yes... I know... half the year has almost gone by. I will accept my punishment of ejection on their behalf (but I'll still cry about it).

Are you wondering why it took so long to share? It's a good question. Our team was redefining our process for updates and how we organize them, finding out what matters most *looks at that player survey from a couple months ago*, and taking a well deserved nap, etc..

Since we introduced the Engineer, Scientist, Guardian Angel, and Shapeshifter back in 2021[www.innersloth.com], new roles has been one of the highest requested additions to the game - and for good reason! Roles introduced a new way to betray and bewilder Crewmates, and more ways to gather evidence against the Impostors.

Soon we'll introduce more brand new roles each with their own little quirk that make for some very interesting lobbies. I can't guarantee they'll help you avoid an untimely ejection but who knows... it's all about how you play!


We're improving how you find lobbies through a more refined set of search settings.


Our looooooooong list of settings is getting a facelift. Say hello to snappy menus so you can easily see all the settings you can change as a host, and have a quick view of the important ones as you join lobbies.


Our true calling - Bean fashion. We're cooking up more ways for you to slay while you slay. 💅

Y'all know how we get down with the cute, goofy, and chaotic collabs with other studios. We're rolling the dice and hoping to continue blowing your minds this year. No one is safe. (sorry Red)


Along with the lobby settings and filtering mentioned above, we're sprucing up other items that will make your ears (do Crewmates even have ears?) perk up. We're cooking up other changes too - music for the lobbies (a Puffballs United original of course), Crewmate chatter popping at the top of the screen, and more.


This is where I'm allowed to talk about [REDACTED]. Can't say more than that 'cause we like surprising you!

Wooooooo, that's a lot of stuff! The team is hard at work checking notes and prepping their tasks to make these plans a reality, so don't expect all of these to be completed in the order shown above.

We're excited and can't wait to get these changes into your lovely, non-Impostor-knife-wielding hands.

Off to decipher my part of the roadmap,

Dors
